“Thank You so much for an amazing evening November 09, 2024 at Old Avenue. The food is amazing, The Service is so attentive and quick. The Atmosphere is welcoming and you can feel the love and care from the owner the chef and the serving young people. Defiantly will go again and again to try more interesting things on the menu.”
“Loved it! Huge portions, fast and friendly service. 100% would recommend!”
“In a restaurant world dressed up with disingenuous marketing JOEY Yorkdale offers you a magnificent spot outside downtown Toronto that delivers what it promises on their home page, “Our guests, new or old, are not treated just as guests, but as if they are a good friend we are catching up with.” And this was the experience for me and my two close chums who selected this spot primarily because it was the midpoint between our diverse locations. From first arriving, the hostess took the time to offer a complimentary champagne glass and inquire if our visit that day was for a special occasion. It was a reunion and she graciously followed up with pleasant comments establishing a charming mood. When the waitress came to greet us, she also took the time to find out more about the nature of our reunion and only then flawlessly delved into the menu. I understand this is common practice at luxury restaurants; however, I would contend that, although there are dining establishments that treat patrons similarly, it is not simply about what you do but, rather, how well you do it. And this is the reason I am taking the time to write this review: JOEY does it very well. Having frequented several luxury restaurants in downtown Toronto I can anecdotally share with you that there have been far too many occasions when the host and/or server left a poor impression. Whether it is conceited complacency in their brand or even our own bigotry of unrealistic expectations, there seldom is a meeting point of both food, service, and overall impression. The treatment at JOEY was so genuine that it left an indelible impression. Each interaction with the server and hostess throughout complemented our dining experience. We were then surprised with dessert on the house presented on an expansive serving plate with the words “Happy Reunion!” written in caramel. Delicious, delicious caramel. Mmmm, but I digress… Over the years I have written to restaurants far more complaints than compliments and, in retrospect, this is unfair. It takes a team and a culture to create this magic and it can be quite challenging to get it right. When it comes together as well as it did on our visit, it is the sort of joy that can accompany you throughout your day. At JOEY they seem to have captured the right formula and I look forward to returning and catching up with “good friends” that understand that going out to eat today is about so much more.”
Restaurants by Cuisine
“Parking is a hassle due to the nature of this roadside spot, but the restaurant itself is lively and energetic. Sat outside at the patio on a summer evening, so there were a couple bugs and flies around the food and table, but nothing too bothersome. Birria tacos were savoury and loaded with beef. Sauces helped add some flavour. Server was excellent and brought food out promptly.”
“Great food and service. I got the combo for 1. Spicy tan ramen. At first when I saw the broth it looked really plain and I was hesitant but when I actually had a sip it was rich and creamy. Definitely recommend :)”
“I'll definitely be ordering this again! It was the perfect solution for when I wanted something super spicy but didn't want to leave the house. The portion is very generous, and it's packed with protein including tasty bean curd and meat. The packaging is excellent and very secure, so you don't have to worry about any spills. Highly recommended for all spice lovers.”

“Great date night spot or hanging with friends . The venue is on a smaller side so it’s a little lowkey depending on what time you go. The staff were really attentive with great customer service. I had the calamari and chicken wings. Everything was flavourful and tasty. Highly recommend trying the calamari! I really enjoy the bingo game; made the overall experience more fun.”
“A wonderful, welcoming, and customer-focused restaurant with generous staff and delicious food! The team is always smiling and friendly. The owner and staff feel just like a family! Highly recommended for authentic Italian cuisine”
“Great food, service and ambiance. Whenever we visit Lara's Restaurant we feel very much at home hence the reason we go back frequently and hold all our events at the restaurant. Highly recommended Seta”

“Was there today with my trini friend and we got doubles, veggie dhal puri, aloo pie and curry potato and channa and dhal puri. It was so good. The lady made us feel like we were back home and the food is amazing. I'll be coming back for sure. It's the Guyanese and trini ladies with the little girl that kept dropping her wallet. Lol. Thank you for the wonderful service and great food.”

“Me and my colleague have been coming here for the past two week. We happened to have YUKI helped us this time. She’s soooo professional and experienced🫡🫡”
“This place was fantastic. The staff was also very kind and polite and always had smiles on their faces. And i've never had such big rolls of sushi. Not only were they huge, but they were extremely tasty. This place is a ten out of ten.

“On September 21, 2025 my husband and i hosted a party for our 85-year-old friend. We were greeted with Happy Birthday Greetings. Our waters were never empty. Our food came on time, was delicious and hot. and all 8 of us enjoyed every chopstick full of such tasty food. Thank you to the staff that took care of every want, even a dish of ice cream dolled up for the birthday girl. Very nice treat. Thank you. Every time the service has been exceptional and caring a bit more today made it memorable for everyone Thank you.”
“Taste good but a bit too much seasoning that you feel thirsty after.”
“The restaurant, service and food at this restaurant was good. However the only downside is that the customers are literally asked to pay a tip. During this difficult period of the pandemic, it is hard to leave a tip. It should be optional but if you do not tip, you are sort of asked "why no tip". This becomes odd and the customer should be given the discretion to tip. This is the reason, I am giving 4 stars to this restaurant.”
“We visited this Swiss Chalet location and had a wonderful experience. The service was excellent, and Florece stood out for being especially attentive and kind. If you’re in the area and want great service and solid food, this is definitely a spot I’d recommend.”
“Every time we visit your cafe, we get great pleasure and enjoyment from delicious food, which is definitely cooking in love! And this year I decided to celebrate my birthday in your cafe! .thank you very much to the chef and special words of gratitude to the lovely girl Manali, who every time surrounds all customers with warmth and attention! Professional approach to their work, knowledge of the assortment delights and there is a desire to return to this cute cafe again and have a lot of fun! Highly recommend Thai room on Dufferin! be sure to visit you again! Thanks .”
“I've been to Yu Seafood Yorkdale several times. An upscaled restaurant near all the high-end retailers. I bought my nephew here during his business trip and everything is good, and the bill was paid without going through the details. Not until I got home and found out one of the dishes was missed out from the dinner set for six. I called the restaurant the next day and the general manager Neilson responded promptly. It could be a human error and promised to compensate on my next visit. Having said that Yu is a great place to enjoy dinner or lunch despite of the mistake they have made on my last visit.”
“Best meal I had for a long time in the portions are beautifully and big, waitress could use a little bit of etiquette.. kind of leaned over our plates and our coffees , but otherwise fantastic service fantastic meal”

“Food/sauce is very flavorful, atmosphere is great and you can watch him making the noodles. What’s not to like?? Oh yeah and the cat robot that delivered our appetizers was awesome! We’re here at noon on a Monday and I can’t believe this place isn’t packed; with this delicious food it should be. We’re on vacation but I wish they had one in Charleston! Two thumbs way up!!”
“It was a wonderful experience! From the moment you step inside, you are greeted by a professional and friendly team. The elegant atmosphere and meticulously designed decor create a comfortable and enjoyable environment. Team coordination and service quality are evident at every stage. The food is excellent, the presentations are meticulous, and the service is fast. The emphasis on guest satisfaction makes the experience even more valuable. You leave here not only having tasted delicious food, but also with complete satisfaction. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking for quality service and a pleasant experience.”
“The food was excellent and we really enjoyed our meal. The only area that could be improved was the customer service.
When we arrived through the back entrance, we were told we needed to wait at the front. I asked approximately how long the wait would be, as it was quite late and I was with my newborn baby. Unfortunately, the response I received was simply, “I don’t know.” It would have been helpful to receive even a rough estimate or a more reassuring response.
Since I wasn’t comfortable waiting outside without any idea of the wait time, I ended up calling the restaurant while standing in line. I was then informed that the wait wasn’t long at all, which was appreciated. Overall, the food made the visit worthwhile, but a warmer, more helpful interaction would have made the experience even better.”
“Take left on Clayson Road coming from wilson avenue. Drive for 5min you’ll see Upper Crust board on your left. Park your truck where it says (Don’t enter) truck and trailer are allowed though. Once you park there, walk to shipping office. Take reefer temp picture along with you. They’ll tell you your dock no. Fast loading. Enough space for back up.”
“I am coming every morning for breakfast manpreet is serving me everyday with hot frish food and very friendly and excellent service she is hardworking manpreet is always making sure I get my food hot an fast thank you 😊 manpreet for your great service i appreciate it .”
“I had a great experience at A&W. The food was fresh, hot, and delicious, and the staff were friendly and welcoming. My order was prepared quickly, and the restaurant was clean and well maintained. The burgers were flavorful, and the fries and root beer were excellent. Overall, it was a satisfying meal, and I'll definitely be coming back.”
“I’ve been here multiple times now and it never disappoints. The food is always so flavorful, fresh, and authentic. E dish comes out hot and packed with flavor. The staff are incredibly kind and attentive, and the atmosphere is cozy and welcoming. One of my favorite spots for Korean food now. Highly recommend if you’re craving comforting, delicious Korean food. Definitely coming back again soon! 💜”
“Wonderful lunch experience with @Katsuya.ca definitely must try! Great food awesome staff. Thanks for a great experience”
Takeout Restaurants
“It was really great. I came yesterday. I am Iranian. The food was really great. The taste and quality. Especially the chicken soup and sandwich. Other dishes. Thank you for making the food with so much love. I am a manager in an Iranian restaurant myself and I understand that food made with love and respect for the customer. Thank you for being so respectful.”
“I got take out last night, rushing to eat before work (salad and chicken shawarma sandwich). It tasted odd... shortly after,, I called the location to tell them, something was off with the ingredients. I wasn't sure of it was the onions, turnips etc. something was left out too long perhaps... and today I am sick as a dog. I've eaten here before. I think they need better quality control on the food... especially being safely stored.. perhaps temperatures..etc”
“Had a great experience at Subway today thanks to Atit Gurung. He was fast, friendly, and very professional. He made sure my order was exactly how I wanted it and kept everything clean and organized while preparing my sandwich. Great customer service like this makes a big difference. Highly recommend!”
Drive-Thru Restaurants
“Delicious doner sandwiches with really nice house made bread. Tasty fries too. Very clean establishment with noce service and easy parking in front. Will come back again! I like their stamp system too and got free fries with my order. Nice incentive to come back.”
“This is definitely my go to spot for some really good hotpot between the fresh cuts of quality beef lamb and pork to the good tasting soup and the ramen everything was super delicious anyone looking for a good hotpot spot definitely come here u won't regret it( we have the pork bone and tom yum )”
“Honestly wasn’t expecting much when coming in. They seated us in the section that had majority tablets; Genius idea. The service was fast and efficient. Everything you need is right there at the table or can be answered by the tablet. The table has compartments where you can find utensils, napkins, etc. The food was reasonably priced, generous portions, and tasted good. If there’s anything you need you can look to the tablet to help you. There’s an option to call a server and has options for your inquiry.
TLDR; Pros: fast&efficient, food good&cheap Cons: impersonal/detached style of dinning exp
Overall would recommend; I believe in this place.”
“Food is mid, 3/5. There are better noodles in the area but this is not bad for the price. We tried the dry noodles and braised beef noodles with soup as well as a few cold dishes.
Service is excellent though - very quick and they gave me a hair tie, bib and basket for my jacket and bag.”
“One of the friendliest family run restaurants I've been to. Thank you for having the world cup game on during my visit and the sandwich I ordered was so tasty. Next time I come back I will try another flavor from your menu. Also the grilled chicken thigh was perfectly cooked. Food is perfect for lunch.”
“Amazing meal! The dry pot chicken was so flavorful and perfectly spiced, and the charcoal-grilled pork neck was super tender with a delicious smoky char. The corn cakes were crispy, hot, and delightfully sweet—a perfect match. Great portions, quick service, and super clean. Highly recommend!”

Fine Dining
“Not truly wheelchair accessible. I was very much looking forward to dining here. After reading some of the other comments in the question section, we called to confirm the extent to which they are wheelchair accessible. Utterly disappointed to find out that although they have a ramp, the only accessible dining areas are if you're with one of the large groups. Meaning that as an individual with accessibility needs, I was excluded from dining at this restaurant. My accessibility needs are temporary, however you can guarantee I won't be dining at this restaurant even when I'm able to walk again, until they rectify this situation. Inexcusable to exclude people with mobility needs in this day and age.”
“I came here with a friend for Summerlicious. The three-course menu was quite limited, with only three options for each course. The cucumber shrimp toast was good, but the salad was too bitter for us. Our waiter noticed we didn’t finish it and kindly replaced it with the watermelon soup, which was refreshing but not really to my taste.
For the mains, we tried the braised beef and chicken. The beef had a strong wine flavour and tasted very salty and bitter, so the savoury dishes were just okay overall. I was a little disappointed because I expected the Summerlicious menu to showcase some of the restaurant’s best dishes. The desserts weredefinitely the highlight: the passion fruit tart and strawberry panna cotta were both delicious. The service was excellent, and our waiter was very kind and attentive!”
“I’ve been here many times and just thought to finally leave a review. I was here first in late 2022 if I’m not mistaken and since then it’s always been a pleasure to dine here. The staff remember you and your preferences and will serve you attentively. The food, considering kosher restrictions is immaculate and a great treat every single time. They serve a wide range of cuts and entrees, great appetizers, excellent drinks and delicious desserts. Their veal piccata is a favourite of mine and the rest of their meats are also something with which you can’t go wrong. I’ve been here before and I’ll be here again. 10/10 would recommend.”
“Excellent customer service. The owner, Vera, responds quickly to calls & messages and has been very acomodating for my special event. The food is exquisite, the decor, music & atmosphere is outstanding. Vera and her team has provided great customers service and will be happy to return in the future.”
“Pag tapos ng mahabang meeting tapos itong mang Tomas lechon Ang kinain namen Grabe sobrang solid Ang Sarap mula sa balat hanggabg sa laman Malasa sulit talaga Ang pera mo and yung mga big boss na kasama namen sa meeting Sarap na Sarap lahat Hindi kame napahiya sa pagkain na ni serve namen sakanila 7am sya na deliver samen at 10am namen nakain pero lahat ng balat sobrang lutong talaga good job mang Tomas lechon 💯💯💯💯 #mangtomas”
“I’ve been ordering from this restaurant for years, and it’s been a constant in my life during some very busy times. There was a period when my work hours were overwhelming, and I simply didn’t have the energy to cook. Being able to stop by one of their locations and pick up a warm, nourishing bowl of soup made a real difference,not just for me, but for my family as well. It helped me stay on top of my responsibilities as a parent when time and energy were in short supply.
What I truly appreciate is their concept of offering high-quality, ready-to-enjoy bowls. It’s simple, comforting, and reliable. The consistency over the years has kept me coming back, and I genuinely hope that as they continue to expand, any new locations maintain the same standard of quality and care that made me a loyal customer in the first place.”

Cheap Eats
“We've been on a bit of a bingsu kick so finally tried The Cups. We ordered the large matcha bingsu which was around $20-25. Good size portion for two people to have, and it was mostly good. We really liked the almond chips and the mochi, and we felt that they didn't skimp on the matcha powder which is nice.
Where it missed the mark a bit for us is the green tea ice cream was actually freezer burnt and made it a bit difficult to eat. There was also a bit of clumping with the snow near the bottom.
This place seems to be really popular on weekends so it might be hard to get a seat.”
“I constantly come here. The service is good. The food is even better haha. They make in house drinks which are amazing refreshers. You have to try it, the pineapple cucumber is personally my fav. Menu is small but everything in it is good. Make sure you come show some love to this place!!!”
“One of my favorite places for wraps! Ottoman Grill is always generous with the portions—they don’t hold back on the fillings at all. The wraps are packed, flavorful, and super satisfying. Fresh ingredients, great taste, and excellent value. Definitely a go-to spot for me! 🌯❤️”
“This experience was one of the best experiences ever. The manager was super attentive and accommodating to my friends and I. He constantly checked up on us and even joked around with us. Additionally, the food was fresh, hot, and tasted amazing. Overall, the atmosphere was thoroughly enjoying and made this experience worth while!”
“Excellent Chinese restaurant, great atmosphere and delicious food, especially Lanzhou beef noodles. My girlfriend and I often lunch her, and because of the pandemic, we are now ordering delivery. Very fast, tasty and not expensive. ps. You should definitely try fried noodles, chunks of lamb, and barbecue skewers.”
“Today Jan 3, 2025 was my first time here. Beautifully decorated, Clean, generous size delicious baked on the premises blueberry scones, good coffee, friendly helpful staff and owner. I spent a long time working on the crossword puzzle sipping my two cups of coffee. I wasn’t rushed. Felt very comfortable. I wish them well, and I shall return for sure.”
“Great atmosphere and good food. Service ppl were courteous. They don't take reservations so be prepared for a good lineup on weekends. Highly recommend the grilled chicken cartilage!”
“I ordered the kimchi stew from this restaurant, and it was really delicious! It was perfectly balanced between spicy and sour, and fit my tastebuds. The interior is very spacious as well. I would definitely come back!”
“One of the best Chinese style BBQ in GTA. Not much really my taste but all meat and stuff we ordered are pretty good. The quality of the food is good and the grill is just fine.
Chicken thigh and haichanglaofan are our favorite. Other things are also good.👍”
“Food is delicious and service is fast. Friendly staff. Highly recommended.”
“Branzino was good. Asked for it to be deboned but still many bones remained. My husband had a falafel salad with chicken which was so dry and over cooked. Server was pleasant but it's the second time I have been there and food is not great.”
“Decided to try this restaurant on a whim and I'm really glad we did. We'd never had Indonesian food before, so the staff took the time to explain the menu and gave us some great recommendations. The service was very friendly and has a nice family owned vibe. Made it easy to try something new.
We ordered the Beef Rendang, Ayam Geprek (Smashed Fried Chicken), and Nasi Goreng. Everything was really tasty. The beef was incredibly tender and packed with flavour, the chicken was crispy and a really nice kick to it, and the fried rice was awesome - very unique flavours.
Definitely worth checking out if you're looking to try Indonesian food. We'll be back!”
“Some of the best truly authentic Chinese food I have had around Toronto. The owner is especially extremely friendly, he chats with you and treats you like an old friend.”
“There are many ramen places in this part of North York and this is definitely one of the tastier ones. Noodles are cooked perfectly and the broth is always piping hot, delicious and flavourful. You can always count on getting a delicious bowl of noodles at this place. The service is always precise and efficient.”

“Its a wonderful place to enjoy a hearty and authentic meal. I visited with friends, and we were impressed by the fresh ingredients and rich flavors in every dish. The staff was warm and welcoming, making us feel right at home. I’ll definitely be coming back for more”
“Joey is our go-to place for special occasions in our family. The food is always amazing no matter the location, the servings are generous, and the staff and servers are friendly without being intrusive. I really liked their high chair for little babies. It was the type that attaches to the table — it was perfect for our 10 month old!”
“Fanny was an awesome waitrese. Made some great food recommendations. The chicken sandwich is really good. Food is excellent here and generous portions. Highly recommend it here.”
“The staff was lovely, the food was good!! Would def eat her again!”
“Amazing Interesting burger choices were so yummy and huge.”
“An amazing Indian restaurant and take out , looks amazing and amazing food ! Highly recommended 👍 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
“Amazing food with great selection. Food always come fresh and tastes delicious!”

“IT LOOKS SO COOL INSIDE it’s so relaxing in there and the Waitress are so kind and the F00D is tasty! and reasonably sized (unlike most restaurants) only the bentos are a bit big still… FIVE STARS ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Very good experience! Had a fantastic waitress and food was excellent”
“Really delicious pork bone soup! I ordered the most popular item - mapo gamjatang. It came with plentiful side dishes and a bowl of steamed rice. The soup is flavourful, and they are very generous with the pork bones!”
“Cute Korean restaurant about 3-5 min walk from Finch Subway station. Tip: exit through the passenger pickup area of Finch station if you're walking, that's the closest exit to the restaurant. I came here specifically to try their Ganjang Gejang (raw blue crab marinated in soy sauce), it seems that they might be the only restaurant that serves this dish in Toronto, that I could find and know of. There is a very slight fishy smell when I sniffed it, which is expected since it's raw crab, but when I was eating it, I didn't find it fishy at all, it was really delicious. The crab roe was soft and rich, the meat was smooth and fresh, everything went really well with the rice. I can see why this dish is called a rice thief now. I was really tempted to order another bowl of rice but on account of my diet I stopped myself. I would definitely try this dish again. I also ordered the kimchi stew and my friend got a spicy beef soup. Although it was not as outstanding as the Ganjang Gejang, Both were delicious and portions were good. The side dishes were good as well. Not sure if there's free refills or not since we didn't ask for any. The service was good, it's a smaller shop, seems like it's family owned. People were doing multi jobs so if you wanted more tea or something you have to ask them, they do really try to check up you though and would walk around once in awhile to refill your tea and see how you're doing. Overall a good dining experience, I would come back to try their raw crab. However if I was just going out for Korean food then I may not specifically go out of my way to come here since although the other dishes were good, it's not super outstanding. Aside from indoor dining they also have outdoor dining, there's a big white tent outside, they provides pretty good shelter, there's also hanging lights out there, really cute set up. We dined inside though since it was windy.”
“Absolutely delicious food and really friendly employees. We enjoyed corned beef and pastrami sandwiches. Probably the best we’ve ever eaten. We also bought latkes, matzo ball soup and a fantastic split pea soup. Well worth the drive.”
“Loved this place, came with my family and the service was amazing . The food was to die for. And they honestly were really amazing with my kids. I know it’s hard to take your family out sometimes and sometimes you share what you all have. But how they treated us so amazing with sharing the meal with my family of 4, and we only ordered 2 meals. And the waitress was so amazing because my kids really wanted tot try the ice cream but it wasn’t in the budget… but she saw how bad they wanted it and gave it to them on the house. I’m telling you now I will be coming here a lot more.”
“A wonderful restaurant that really pays attention to details. My friend is a vegetarian and the were helpful in recommending suitable dishes for her. Big thanks to the staff for their kindness”
“I had lunch here with my family and i like the atmosphere, child friendly and good food.”

“It’s better then KFC Cheese stick OMG🤤best I’ve ever had The spicy 🌶️ pastas ou 😋 So I give it ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“I visited Michi Sushi for the first time today, and had a wonderful experience. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, and every dish was fresh and delicious. I had a wonderful dining experience and would definitely come back. Highly recommended!”
“Cute little sushi restaurant. Went there at 5 pm on a wed. Ordered the dons and they were the perfect size. I don’t like to get overstuffed and this was just right. Tempera was light and crispy.”
“We tried both the bulgogi and kaboom pizza and they were solid pies. We opted this time not to go with the cream cheese crust which was a better option as it limited the sweetness of the overall dish and was a better balance of flavor. The green tea dough was solid on its own. The kaboom, while heavy, was super cheesy and we got great cheese pulls out of it and crispy cheese on the crust.”
“Thank you, Chef Piotr Przykaza and your wife for phenomenal dinner and Tristian for an amazing service 😊🍷 Very highly recommend it 👍”
“Great friendly service, was served food pretty fast. The best fried calamari I have had yet. The chicken Slovakia dinner was so yummy. I can’t wait to try some of the other dishes they have. I Would definitely recommend this place to anyone who enjoys some real tasty Greek food.”
“Amazing all-you-can-eat sushi! Everything was fresh, the rolls were delicious, and the service was fast and friendly. Great variety on the menu, and the food kept coming quickly. Definitely worth the price. I’ll be back!”
“We had a family event last night at their restaurant. I can't stress how great the value is here, and the food quality was top shelf. I have eaten food cooked by some of the best chefs in the world and this was every bit as good. the staff were attentive but not at all intrusive. very accommodating for our large group of 15 people. Their shrimp and calamari platter was cooked perfectly, not at all rubbery, with a divine sauce to dip. Pasta nicely al denté. Calabrese antipasto, nice bread spread. Perfect, and I do mean PERFECTLY, cooked steak, chicken, and sausages. Their pizza is simple but lovely balanced between crisp and chewy. Not too thick, not too thin. Arancini were great. I highly recommend them for your next family event, or just a quiet night out for the family! Thank you to all the staff and the chef for making our family event a success, and we look forward to seeing you again soon!”

“While visiting Toronto this weekend I had the pleasure to dine at Cafe Landwer twice for dinner. I was greeted and seated by Kimia, . The recommendations of choice of meals made by Kimia were details and were bursting with flavor and tasted incredibly fresh. The atmosphere was inviting and the attentive staff went above what was expected. I have shared my experience with Novotel Hotel staff to recommend to guests. Thank you Kimia and Team.”

“such a great experience! i haven’t been here since i was a kid, so it was really nice to come back, and the food did not disappoint. we ordered the guacamole and chips, combo platter, enchiladas, and chicken fajitas, and everything was so delicious. the beef was honestly unreal, definitely one of the highlights!
our waitress was also super friendly, funny, and made the whole experience even better. everything from the food to the service was amazing. also looks like some renovations were done recently, and it looks great! i’m so glad i came back after all these years and I already can’t wait to go again!”

The service was fast and the food was served few mins after our order
flavor was nice and sashimi peices were all fresh
Highlight was the Kamikaze roll in my opinion”

“I came here with a friend for Summerlicious. The three-course menu was quite limited, with only three options for each course. The cucumber shrimp toast was good, but the salad was too bitter for us. Our waiter noticed we didn’t finish it and kindly replaced it with the watermelon soup, which was refreshing but not really to my taste.
For the mains, we tried the braised beef and chicken. The beef had a strong wine flavour and tasted very salty and bitter, so the savoury dishes were just okay overall. I was a little disappointed because I expected the Summerlicious menu to showcase some of the restaurant’s best dishes. The desserts weredefinitely the highlight: the passion fruit tart and strawberry panna cotta were both delicious. The service was excellent, and our waiter was very kind and attentive!”
“I rarely write reviews but had to express my gratitude for Harry, who is truly the sweetest and most professional server you could ever have! He’s so consistent in his quality and care, everytime I’ve been here he’s taken amazing care of us. Make sure you ask for him!! And food never disappoints-quality is amazing. My only note is that the hostess was quite rude (July 8 at 8:50 PM).”
“Hands down the best smashed burgers in the area, my family’s favorite to be honest. Simple and perfect. Buns were soft, beef seasoned perfectly, sliced cheese, caramelized onions and their house sauce. I’m hungry typing this. Their chicken burgers are good as well, I would prefer beef more. My brother loved the chicken more, so I believe it’s pretty good as welll. The hotdogs are okay, I only tried those because that’s the only 3rd main item on the menu out of 3. Lol. Regardless, the same line, best halal burgers in the area.
Their mango cream is also good, has that really good hint of cardamom.”
“The food was absolutely amazing. My 3 daughters and I went there for dinner during Summerlicious 2022. We didn't have reaervations and the options were a 1 hour wait to sit inside or be seated right away on the patio. We chose the patio. We were served our drinks and appetizers within 1/2 hour but our main course came about an hour after but it was worth the wait. We will definitely return🍾🎉”
“Was there today with my trini friend and we got doubles, veggie dhal puri, aloo pie and curry potato and channa and dhal puri. It was so good. The lady made us feel like we were back home and the food is amazing. I'll be coming back for sure. It's the Guyanese and trini ladies with the little girl that kept dropping her wallet. Lol. Thank you for the wonderful service and great food.”
“This was our first time dining in at Meat Point and it left a really good impression. The staff were polite and attentive, the ambiance was cozy, and the food arrived fresh and flavorful. Everything we ordered was cooked perfectly and filling. Great value for money and a place worth returning to.”
“This is definitely my go to spot for some really good hotpot between the fresh cuts of quality beef lamb and pork to the good tasting soup and the ramen everything was super delicious anyone looking for a good hotpot spot definitely come here u won't regret it( we have the pork bone and tom yum )”

“Pretty decent burger freshly made with also good temperature from the bun. Honestly I m not a big fan of melted cheddar, it comforting but could get too rich after half of it. But the cheese aside, good size and good patty. Liked it. This location is in the busy area and the noise and crazy drunk ppl can easily make the staff less patient which is natural, I m just saying be quick and decisive and don’t try to be funny, that is a lot help to the staff behind the window”
“Me and the missus had a fantastic time here. Their menu is truly solid, with incredibly good pricing for the quality, presentation and stellar service. Same goes for the adjacent Aladdin where I had an excellent Philly cheese steak and fries. Worth the trip and more than worthy of its ratings and reputation.”
“The food we ordered was authentic Korean dishes & it tastes exactly authentic. Yukgaejang broth tastes better than many other ones I have tried. Spicy beef intestines soup, would recommend for hang over. Overall, everything was great especially the bun chun tasted exactly the way my grandma used to make it.”
“We went this evening with 2 little kids. Things started fine but kids are kids and couldn't sit still for long. The staff were really good at getting their food out quickly and getting us whatever we needed.
The food was very delicious (nduja Romana pizza, spaghetti Pomodoro and 2 orders of kids shell pasta with butter) but the service was what really stood out.
Looking forward to coming back more regularly!”
“I love this CoCo location! Every time I’m craving boba, this is always the one I go to. The staff are so welcoming and genuinely kind every single time! The drinks are always good, and the entire store is super clean too. I’ve only ever had good experiences here and will always come back (。ᴖ ⤙ ᴖ)”
“We had such a wonderful experience at Gelato North with our family! The gelato was honestly one of the best ice creams I’ve ever had. Everything tasted fresh, creamy, and full of flavor, and there were so many great options to choose from that it was hard to pick just one. Everyone in our family really enjoyed it, and it made our family outing even more enjoyable.
I would definitely recommend Gelato North to anyone looking for a great place to enjoy dessert with family or friends. It’s especially nice if you’re spending time walking around the North York area and want to stop somewhere for a delicious treat. The atmosphere was welcoming, the experience was enjoyable, and most importantly, the gelato was excellent. We had a great time and will definitely be coming back again. Highly recommended for families and anyone who loves good-quality gelato!”
“The self-serve items are acceptable. Especially since it's $3 per 100 grams. They also charge about $2 more for the broth.
I chose the beef bone broth with a spicy level of 1 and it was good. Next time I'll definitely try the tomato soup.
The staff was friendly but didn't speak much English.
We spent about $60 for three people and took some of the leftovers home, which was the size of a full meal.”
“We had such a wonderful experience at Shake Shack at Yorkdale! The food was great, but what truly made our visit exceptional was the incredible service from Tiny.
Tiny was absolutely phenomenal! She went above and beyond even though she didn’t have to. She came over to check on us several times, genuinely asking if we needed anything and making sure we were taken care of throughout our meal. She even helped us with a refill and made the whole experience feel so welcoming and personal.
It’s rare to come across someone who puts this much care and attention into their customers. Tiny was kind, attentive, friendly, and incredibly professional. You can tell she genuinely cares about making sure guests have a great experience.
Shake Shack is very lucky to have her on their team. Tiny deserves recognition for the amazing service she provides. We will definitely be coming back — thank you, Tiny, for making our visit so memorable”
