“The service was excellent, provided by our server Ms. Sophie. Food was delicious and fresh. We had a great experience at this location. Thanks”
“The restaurant is close to UFT, has a large smoked meat area just like in the south! I ordered the brisket, bone back rib, and strip Korean; it was tender and seasoned well!! I've been here a few times, and I'll be back here again before the end of summer with some friends.”
“Our server Zuvi was amazing, pleasant, efficient and accomodating! The atmosphere and food were very enjoyable and we will be coming back here again! 😊”

“Our server, Amy was very polite & pleasant and we enjoyed our meal.”
“Everything was good and food came out within 10 mins. We ordered about 6-7 dishes plus dessert. I would probably skip anything served in a pineapple cause portion size was small though. Service was great and I would recommend this place over Pai which I sent to a few weeks ago.”
“Fantastic dining experience! This is a great spot for dining with friends, family, and in groups. The menu offers a balance of vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes. The chicken kothu and dosa were both great. We also ordered a fish dish cooked in banana leaf — so flavourful, tender and delicious. The crab curry was excellent, though it definitely has a serious kick—so be warned! The Mango Lassi was the perfect way to cool down. The restaurant is spotless and the staff provides dedicated service. Having a hands-washing sink accessible to everyone near the dining area is a genius and practical touch for customers. Highly recommend!”

“This place is simply awesome, loved the food and ambiance! What a lovely pictures decor in the bathroom- absolutely amazing!
Loved the place, coming here again!
Suzy the server did. Superb job and on top pf that she is such a sweet girl!”
“We recently signed up for the meal delivery program and cannot say enough good things! The food is really tasty. We eat a lot of Indian and Mexican food so we were concerned that the food might not be as flavourful as we are used to eating, but it far exceeded my expectations! The website is very easy to use from my phone. The salads are great because they allow me to eat raw veggies that I might not otherwise prepare for myself. I’ve already noticed an improvement in my digestion. The containers the food is in are durable and reusable/recyclable. The delivery is always on time. Once there was a very small mixup and I was immediately sent an additional complimentary entree delivered to my door. What a wonderful company, that I wish I had discovered sooner!”
“The food was absolutely delicious! Everything was fresh, flavourful, and well-seasoned, with that authentic African taste I was looking for. The portions were generous, and everything was packaged neatly for takeout. The service was also friendly and efficient.
And to top it off, they were so generous and included free puff-puff with my order! 🥹❤ Such a thoughtful gesture and definitely made the experience even better.
I really enjoyed my meal and will definitely be ordering from here again. Highly recommend!❤”
“We came because you have good reviews. We found out that Gyu Hito is an amazing go-to-place for delicious Japanese AYCE BBQ! The restaurant has a modern feel to it and the staff is incredibly attentive to our food needs. Such good service! The food itself is so tasty (so many different types of seasoned meats) and there are many yummy sides you can order as well! The most thing I like is the fruit tea, best combination with BBQ. Dessert is also something to look forward to because you can choose your favourite Melona popsicle and have it with a sweet creme brule dessert!”

“Hands down, one of the best sub shops in the GTA! The reviews don’t lie. Chris and his team put genuine care into every sandwich. Everything is fresh, from the crisp vegetables and quality proteins to the incredible selection of sauces. The subs are loaded to the brim, with old school quality and plenty of modern day options. The daily specials offer fantastic value, Thursday’s jerk chicken and Friday’s chicken souvlaki are must tries, and the homemade soups are excellent. The staff are amazing, the prices are more than reasonable, and the loyal following says it all. Conveniently located at Morningside and Sheppard. Chubby’s is the real deal!”

“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!!”
“The ambiance at Mangal is very nice. The dishes superbly prepared and the service by Yusuf and his staff exquisite! I highly recommend Mangal.”
“Food is great. A little pricey but big portions make up for it. Beware of coming as a group of more than 4 because they will charge mandatory 15% service charge.”

“This is my go-to place for biryani. The best I've had! Light, fluffy and delicately spiced. The food is so good and the staff are so friendly it's like my 2nd home! The gongura biryani (veg or chicken) is probably my favourite, also really like the mughlai chicken biryani.”
“This place has excellent quality food and friendly service. I ordered the chicken breast kebab dinner. The chicken is perfectly seasoned, juicy and tasty! The naan bread is soft and fluffy. In fact, I can eat it by itself. The Greek salad is so fresh and I love the dressing. I like their Greek salad better than those at Greek restaurants. Overall, I am just happy to have a quality restaurant near my home where I can go to get quality food anytime.”
“We came to take advantage of the National Cheeseburger Day promotion only to be told that it wasn’t being offered at this location. Thankfully one of the staff was able to offer it to us using another promo in the system. Thankfully you for that. We waited patiently for our burgers, but it was Friday and the grill was slammed with Door Dash and Skip the Dishes orders. YES, the burgers were worth the wait. Thank you again for figuring out how to honour the promotion for us.”
“What a wonderful experience. From the care the staff took to seat our party of 8, including 2 kids, to the order taking, where the hostess remembered each of our orders perfectly, to the quick delivery, to the out of this world delicious food. Added 5 stars to our trip to Toronto”
“I tried the 3 mandu and got tang kalguksoo. About 17.99 including tax.
Mandus were very chewy and beef feeling was good. Noodle had good portion for me and very chewy .their soup base has good flavor for you can't stop slurping in .meats and eggs are very very chewy to eat. Their kimchi is also spicy and go well with the noodle and mandus.”
“We had an amazing experience! Our server Melissa was friendly, attentive, and provided excellent service throughout our visit. She made sure we had everything we needed, checked in on us regularly, and made us feel welcome. The service was quick, professional, and made our dining experience even better. We would definitely come back and highly recommend this place!”
“Had an absolutely amazing experience at The Thamel Express! The food was super fresh and full of flavor. Loved how they mix Indian and Hakka style together, everything tasted spot on. Service was super friendly and the place had a great vibe. Will def be coming back again soon!”
“I recently organized a birthday party for my dad at Avenue Restaurant, and I couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. Brandon was incredibly efficient and helpful throughout the planning process, making the organization seamless. On the day of the event, everything ran smoothly, thanks to the attentive staff. The food was outstanding—everyone raved about it! The service was exceptional, with the team going above and beyond to ensure that all our needs were met. I will definitely return to Avenue for future meals and events. Highly recommend!”
24 Hour Restaurants
“We have been to this location a few times over the last year. We are seniors and have requested the full breakfast in the middle of the day. Other A. & W. Locations do not offer the full breakfast menu at all. Since our first visit to this location we have found all of the staff to be so accommodating, courteous kind and very helpful. Diane was our young lady on the order desk, she like the other staff are worth their weight in gold as they excel in all of the customer service area that are essential to complete customer satisfaction. Diane and all the staff at this location are # TEN.”
“Fresh and healthy food with lovely ambience and best customer service by the front crew made our experience even more memorable. I visited for the very first time around 11pm on June 24 and would like to visit again to experience such great service and warm hospitality.”
“If you want a masterclass in what a true, unpretentious North American diner is supposed to be, look no further than MARKHAM STATION. Operating as a 24-hour staple since 1988, this Greek-run diner delivers the kind of authentic, community-driven atmosphere that corporate chains can’t manufacture even if they tried.
The Food & Value: Perfection on a Plate
At $18.99 (before tax), the Super Breakfast is an incredible deal for the mountain of high-quality food you get. While big chains like Cora often serve potatoes that are dry and severely under-seasoned, Markham Station gets it right. Their roasted potatoes come out boasting a gorgeous golden-orange seasoned crust crispy on the outside, perfectly soft and fluffy on the inside and they are so genuinely flavourful that you don't even need a drop of ketchup. Paired with some of the best-tasting pancakes you'll ever encounter, it’s easily a top-tier breakfast experience.
The Atmosphere & The Vibe
What really elevates the place, though, is the living, breathing ecosystem inside. Stepping into a 24-hour booth feels like stepping into a sanctuary, whether you're grabbing a solo post-test bite, looking for a low-key date spot, or winding down after an evening class.
A massive shout-out to the middle-aged blue-collar crew holding down a booth nearby, especially the fast-talking guy with that classic gravelly, smoke-weathered voice. Even with that deep, raspy edge, he brought an infectious, high-energy rhythm and a genuine smile, swapping laughs and keeping things effortlessly polite. Combined with regulars quietly sharing a mocktail and sweet, familiar small talk between the staff and elderly patrons, it brought that unmistakable, unscripted working-class small-town Canadian energy right into the heart of Scarborough.
It feels entirely timeless honestly, sitting there absorbing the positive, salt-of-the-earth energy gives it that pure 1980s small-town Scarborough feel. Five stars, zero notes. Also to top it off managed to spot a clean BMW M6 that had Rohana Wheels on it and a nice front lip and aftermarket exhaust system.”
“Wow what a beautiful and extremely clean restaurant. I had a cold drink in a glass and it quenched my thirst, along with that drink I had a passion fruit milk shake and that was really good. Yummy 😋
Cleaning chairs, everything looks really new and clean. By the way the uncle burger and fries were cooked to perfection. I will be sitting inside again.”
“Yida provided great service and was very attentive. Food was good as per usual and came out super quick.
Only gripe is atmosphere because ventilation could be better.”
“Such a great experience! The owner was super friendly and welcoming. The food was absolutely delicious and everything tasted fresh. Amazing food and even better hospitality! Would definitely come back again.”
“My girlfriend and I had decided to try this Korean-Japanese restaurant nearby. We received excellent customer service, and the food was great as well. James was such a very friendly, polite, and professional employee. I felt like I was treated well—one of the best customer services I have experienced. I would highly recommend this restaurant.”
Takeout Restaurants
“This is easily the best shawarma place I've had in years. The chicken was juicy chunks of chicken breast versus fatty pieces that I find a lot of other places opt for. Their sauces are soo flavourful and in my opinion, there is nothing that could improve the shawarma I tried today for the first time. It was also grilled to perfection. I will be back.”
“What a great bakery!! Their products are fresh and delicious and the staff is friendly and helpful. Rosemary goes out of her way to make sure your order is correct. She answers all customers with kindness and patience. She will ask to make sure your order is correct - especially with a strudel order. You are lucky to have her as an employee.”
“This was my first time visiting The Burger Alley. The menu is Harry Potter inspired and all the names are so fun. We had the Sirius Black and the Dragons Kiss, a side of Alley fries and a deep fried Mozzarella piece. The owner's were so nice and welcoming. There is a huge window from where you can actually see into the kitchen and you will see how clean their kitchen and surroundings are. Will definitely go back and even suggest to my family and friends.”
“What a wonderful experience. From the care the staff took to seat our party of 8, including 2 kids, to the order taking, where the hostess remembered each of our orders perfectly, to the quick delivery, to the out of this world delicious food. Added 5 stars to our trip to Toronto”
“Brought my daughter and a friend here in two separate occasions, and the food presentation, quality of sushi and the whole atmosphere are one of the best in town. It’s definitely a nice cozy place to enjoy such good meal from appetizer to main dish of sashimi or variety of sushi. I’ve ordered the lover’s salmon and yes, it’s bittersweet 🌸 a Japan 🇯🇵 experience that you’ll always treasure. Highly recommended this place 24/7 and savour every moment and don’t leave without having the green tea and mango ice cream as well. 💕✨🍵”

Highly recommend, and I look forward to coming back!!!!”
“One of the best pizza places if not THE best in the whole country.
Top tier quality
Friendly service
Good price
Very very generous in toppings
Halal meat options are available.
I got meat lovers, with
Pepperoni, sausage and ground beef
All halal
This pizza was something else, it felt like it came from a different planet, I won’t be able to describe how good is it, you should go and try it out.”

James was such a very friendly, polite, and professional employee. I felt like I was treated well—one of the best customer services I have experienced. I would highly recommend this restaurant.”
“Classic spot for burgers. Staff are approachable and friendly. The place gives off a very homey vibe. The mama signature is an exceptional burger. Most places don’t do it like this anymore. It’s on the pricier side but for the massive size, I’d say it’s worth it. The Greek fries too were very tasty. Thick cut with generous amount of lemon dressing and feta.”
“It's been 2nd time I tried there food.Really nice kabab it feels like authentic afgani kabab.The staffs are really nice mainly Farzana she has always greeting or serve with smile.It was really a nuce experience with her!!!”
“Have been going here every week since they opened A fabulous place, great owners and staff and above all amazing tasting food that is perfect for my diabetic diet!”
“I tried the 3 mandu and got tang kalguksoo. About 17.99 including tax.
Mandus were very chewy and beef feeling was good. Noodle had good portion for me and very chewy .their soup base has good flavor for you can't stop slurping in .meats and eggs are very very chewy to eat. Their kimchi is also spicy and go well with the noodle and mandus.”
Fine Dining
“lobster tower is expensive but sooooo good, seasoning is on point, meat tender not over cooked, we got veggies, steamed fish and fried rice with our combo and the portions are big. I'd come here for special occassions or if you crave fresh seafood, go for the combo it's better bang for the buck, reserve a table and bring cash, try the king crab it's also super juicy and yummy”
“Finally made up up to get a smoked meat sandwich. I’d heard very good things. And all were true. Absolutely delicious. And the fries were perfection too…but that sandwich 🤤”
“We had an amazing experience! Our server Melissa was friendly, attentive, and provided excellent service throughout our visit. She made sure we had everything we needed, checked in on us regularly, and made us feel welcome. The service was quick, professional, and made our dining experience even better. We would definitely come back and highly recommend this place!”
“This place has amazing food
But the staff absolutely sucks the guy with the glasses is slow they don’t come up to you they just sit there you have to ask so many times for water I asked 6 times for a can of Coke I had to go and just get it my self from the fridge it’s absolutely ridiculous. Terrible service.”
Cheap Eats
“Hole in the wall in a strip plaza. Take out only. Cash only. Must order in advance early to reserve popular menu items and book a pickup time. It was packed when we went to pick up our order. Great phone etiquette. Very polite and patient. Food tastes just like from Malaysia. Of course not Malaysian prices. Dishes had good “wok hay”.”
“Delicious Manoush!! We went recently and enjoyed the food, we’re going again insha Allah tomorrow!!”
“Definitely one of the best dessert spots in Scarborough. Everything we tried was really good but the Emirati Milk Cake was the highlight. So soft creamy and delicious it’s a must try. Great place for anyone who loves desserts. Will definitely be coming back.”
“The spicy crunchy freshly roasted Peanuts,the filling of the samosas are all outburst of fresh roasted Sri Lankan/ Indian spices,the mutton rotis were all mouth watering. 😔 Sad...I just happen to visit New Quality Bakery coz it happened to be close to where I visit my Accountant once a Year for tax filing.I live downtown so its pretty far from my home and workplace. A must visit to enjoy the variety of snacks and freshly made buns,samosas and Sr Lankan fried delicacies.”
“My friend and I often go for breakfast on Friday mornings to the Sunset Grill. The service is always fast accurate and friendly. On our last visit, we had a lovely waitress named Allie, who took care of our order. During our visit she was especially attentive and returned to refill our coffee and asked how our food was as well as if she could bring HP sauce or hot sauce. It’s unusual to enjoy such superb service! We have found that the food is always delicious and prepared with fresh ingredients. I highly recommend this location.”
“Absolutely a must go place for authentic food lovers. Food are as fresh and delicious as home cooked with a touch of delicacy.Food never go wasted. We love to eat there , children loves to go there. Momos are super yummy. No one can beat the secret recipe of the taste of sesame chutney and jhol momo. Salute to the chef there. Highly recommended!! One stop for any occasion!!”
“Découverte d’une nouvelle cuisine! Nous avons goûté au poulet Byriani. Excellent , épicé à point! Un détour que mon conjoint fait lorsqu’il va à Scarborough Ontario! Un service hors pair, ambiance familiale”
“My husband and I went for dinner last night and it was delicious. We ordered fried calamari as an app. I ordered the Linguine Mare and my husband ordered the veal marsala for the mains. Everything tasted fabulous. Service is excellent and Sal is amazing at welcoming everyone. This was our first visit but certainly won't be the last.”
“It’s a great experience. The ambiance is very welcoming. The staff, Tommy , who is very polite and warm welcome customers. Great place for friends gathering and chatting. Definitely will go again.”
“Had an absolutely amazing experience at The Thamel Express! The food was super fresh and full of flavor. Loved how they mix Indian and Hakka style together, everything tasted spot on. Service was super friendly and the place had a great vibe. Will def be coming back again soon!”

“Came here for lunch with some friends and had a decent time, the meat was well seasoned and vegetables fresh. The meat portion sizes seemed smaller than in the past for the price, and service was a bit hit-and-miss. While our server was initially quite prompt, she forgot we had ordered drinks and rice until after everything else had already come and we had started eating. For some reason, even though we were given a table with two grills, they only gave us one grill surface with side dishes (egg, garlic, kimchi, cheese corn). One of our friends was vegan and he only got a small flat-iron pan to grill his vegan set. When we asked if he could also get the same sides but with no cheese in the corn, she said that it wasn't possible but didn't explain why. Overall, it was a good experience, but the service felt a bit of a let-down considering the price of the meal and how few customers were in the restaurant at the time.”
“Best ethnic Korean cold noodle in town!!! You must try. If the weather is too hot or after playing sport! Best choice to cool you down. So delicious 😋”
“Found a hidden gem.. we enjoyed our first visit today with the family..definitely will be back for more. Tried a few other Filipino restos but your food is unbelievably delicious,ambience, hospitality the best! Michelin please meet Ariel of Lakay Kusina!!”
“Excellent! Flavorful, Fresh. Delicious. Basa Fillet recommended. Homemade sauces amazing.”
“We love everything! First time trying it and it was amazing. We had the wings, calamari and alfredo. Their pina colada is to die for! Laxmi did an amazing job with her jolly personality. Will definitely come back!”
“Great food and ambience! Our favourites are Gobi Manchurian, chicken 65 and Kothu roti”
“We hosted a GTA Tesla Meetup here and the staff were very accommodating, food was amazing, Shannon was great at making sure everything was in order for us. Quite a few of our members mentioned they are going to go back to the restaurant themselves in the future.”
“We had dinner. My wife had the sake tasting menu which the menu says is $90 but they charged us $120. We’re not happy about that! The food was good as usual.”
“Best fish ( Haddock) I have ever had. Service, only 1 server but she was excellent. I will return.”
“completely outstanding in every way. Great food, great service, great deserts, great drinks.”
“Such a hidden gem. Food is authentic is and tasty. Since trying this place out a few weeks ago I've been back at least 1x weeks. Would recommend for some decent local N. Scarborough Korean eats.”
“This is from my 10’year old son: :)
The music sometimes doesn’t always fit the atmosphere, but it’s still amazing and I just wish they play more romantic-coffee shop music and if it is a big holiday month like October, then they should play more seasonal music like Halloween music for all of October Christmas music for all of December etc. Also
if there is not a seasonal month like January, then they should default to romantic-coffee shop music. Also, Krista and Alex deserve a 200% tip every time they serve. :)”
“Food was great! The chicken and the beef were incredibly tender. We also thought the portion sizes were great. We wholeheartedly enjoyed our food. Definitely recommend.”
“I've been here 4 times already with various friends, and we all agreed that it's a wonderful place for some Korean food. Parking can be limited in this area, and the restaurant itself isn't too fancy. The service is excellent, and it's great value for what you get. Highly recommended if you're in the area.”
“Try the crispy wings and cheesy bbq boneless chicken 🐔 the first time, it was delicious. Their house BBQ salad was good too with the house dressing. Definitely will order again. Very few seats and the seating area is small in this location. I will recommend take out.”
“It's been 2nd time I tried there food.Really nice kabab it feels like authentic afgani kabab.The staffs are really nice mainly Farzana she has always greeting or serve with smile.It was really a nuce experience with her!!!”
“We love the food, and we also come here for large meals with friends. They're always wonderful.”
“Dine-in for dinner with my family. Amazing food quality and detail, impecable food presentation, staff is friendly, fantastic service, building is showing it's age but nevermind, NiJi is one of my favorite sushi/sashimi restaurants to date. Highly recommended!”
“Tried the Halwa Poori Chana Aloo combo for breakfast at Karachi Xpress. Overall, it was good and quite filling! The halwa didn’t quite meet my expectations as it felt a little too oily for my liking. Still a good desi breakfast option! 🍽✨”
“Wow!! New ownership is making the difference. We used to go here years ago because the food was inexpensive. But back then, the quality of the food was horrible. Now with the new ownership, the food is amazing!! Within a short few months the new ownership has turned this place around! Stephanie, our waitress, provided us with excellent customer service! Come back and enjoy a family restaurant...We will be coming back again and again!”
“Wonderful lunch experience with @Katsuya.ca definitely must try! Great food awesome staff. Thanks for a great experience”
“Great food, service, and atmosphere. Prices were fair and food was authentic and delicious! The meat skewers were a favourite :) Servers were incredibly kind and very helpful in accommodating a toddler with a high chair and special plate and utensils. Very clean and fun atmosphere as they were playing a World Cup game on a large projector. Works recommend and come again.”
“I LOVE THIS PLACE! The food is delicious and the service is amazing clean environment,clean staff ,and Healthy food. vindaloo Indian Restaurant is my favourite restaurant .The restaurant serves food that is both traditional and authentic I always remember the tastes of Momo and other yet it's a bit more refined than your typical Indian restaurant. I have tried other Indian restaurants in the area but there is no comparison in the taste.😋😋🍽️🍗🍖 I want to visit soon with my family 👪. The Owner of this Restaurant is so Handsome.”
“We came to dine for Swiss Chalet’s Festive Special. As usual great food and good portion! Terek (attendant) was wonderful, very friendly and pleasant! Also had a sense of humour! He said, “I thought, I was gonna get killed (bread roll came after), hahaha!”. My friend replied, “...otherwise you’re gonna be dead meat!” 😂
Thank you, Terek! See you next time!”
“Attended a funeral luncheon Oct14/26 and staff were so amazing to handle an impromptu number of attendees. Friendly, efficient, and good food (as always). I have been several times in past for lunch/ dinner and every time was great. Clean restrooms. Accessible friendly.”
“I’ve tried a few mapo gamjatang locations, and this one is definitely my favorite! The meat is sooo tender and falls right off the bone, and all side dishes are really good😋 I often come here for lunch on weekdays, their service is always attentive and quick to notice what i need.”
“The rice was pretty flavorful but very oily. Absolutely in love with the chicken skewers - soft, juicy and mild flavor with that promised charcoal smell. The lamb kidney skewers were for me undercook but my husband loved it. The lamb skewers were soft and cooked medium rare. Overall good experience!”
“The food is good portion and the price is right. Excellent customer service”
“Have been going there since it opened. Food is always good and service is great. If you have any issue they are very quick to remedy it. One of the best places in Scarborough.”
“🍜 **Ajisen Ramen | Midland & McNicoll**
Finally got to try Ajisen Ramen after hearing so many good things about it. I came in with pretty high expectations, especially after having Japanese food in Japan.
The restaurant is small and simple, but I actually liked the minimalist Japanese atmosphere. It felt cozy and authentic.
We ordered Ajisen Ramen with a little spice, Beef Gyudon, Takoyaki, Crispy Gyoza, Chicken Karaage, Pork Tonkatsu Curry, Steak Teppanyaki, and Chicken Fried Rice.
**Beef Gyudon 🥩🍚**
Really good! The beef was tender, juicy, and had that familiar Japanese style flavor. I personally would have liked it a little saltier, but overall, a solid gyudon.
**Takoyaki 🐙**
One of my favorites of the night! The flavor and texture reminded me of the takoyaki we had in Japan. I just wished there were a little more octopus inside, but I would definitely order this again.
**Crispy Gyoza 🥟**
Crispy, tasty, and exactly what you would expect from a classic gyoza. Good, but probably not something I would specifically come back for.
**Ajisen Ramen 🍜**
The noodles were perfectly cooked and the broth had a nice balance with a subtle spicy kick. It had a more authentic Japanese character compared with many ramen places here in Canada.
It didn’t blow me away, but that may be because my expectations are high after trying ramen in Japan. Still, I really enjoyed it.
**Chicken Karaage 🍗**
Another highlight! Perfectly fried on the outside while staying juicy and tender inside. Great seasoning and a very authentic taste. Crispy, juicy, flavorful, and not greasy. Definitely a must order for me.
**Pork Tonkatsu Curry 🍛**
This one surprised me. My first bite didn’t impress me much, but the more I ate, the more I liked it. By the end, I was loving it!
The curry had a comforting depth of flavor, and the tonkatsu was perfectly cooked, crispy outside and juicy inside without being overcooked. This dish actually made me appreciate Japanese curry more.
**Steak Teppanyaki 🥩**
Cooked perfectly medium rare, juicy and flavorful. Good teppanyaki, although I wouldn’t consider it a premium steak.
**Chicken Fried Rice 🍳**
Good and flavorful, but not one of my favorites. I would choose the gyudon over this on my next visit.
⭐ ****
Ajisen Ramen gave us a really enjoyable Japanese dining experience. Not every dish was a wow moment, but everything was good, the staff were friendly, and the prices were very reasonable.
For the quality, portions, and price, I really can’t complain. I’d definitely come back, especially for the **takoyaki, karaage, gyudon, and tonkatsu curry**. 🇯🇵🍜”
“Great omakase experience. The sashimi was very fresh and each course was well thought out. Service was attentive without being intrusive, and the pacing of the meal was just right. Excellent value for this quality — will come back again.”
“Food is overall good but lacks gourmet factor (felt like internet recipes thrown together). A place to post food pictures for social media. The fried chicken is really good but paired with croissant waffles making it too greasy. Roast potatoes definitely needs improvement. It was hard and dense in the center like reheating premade potatoes. Sauces portion seems to be small for the portion of food given. Latte is well made. Taste decent.”
“Monika B. Our server did an excellent job with her customer service skills. Monika B. was welcoming, efficient, polite, quick, patient, and friendly. The Thanksgiving Dinners were hot, fresh, delicious, and tasty and the desserts were tasty and delicious. The drinks were cold and refreshing. This was a fantastic experience. Please let Monika B. know about this survey. Thank you very much and have a great day.”
“Jeanie is great!
Keeps the location fun and remembers who you are.
Great service and great drinks.
Papaya smoothie is my favourite!”
“Excellent food. Great service by Rup. Thoroughly enjoyed time spent at Boston Pizza. Will certainly return.”
“Had been looking forward to visiting for ages, but the restaurant is an hour away from me. Great service. Fish was lovely, chips were delicious and so were mushy peas. Only thing that would have made it better was more selections of diet drink. Interior might need an update soon”

“Really authentic. Tastes like home; a lot
Of Hunan dishes I’ve ordered in Toronto never tasted like when I used to visit my relatives in Hunan, but this one tasted EXACTLY like
How I had it in the village.
I’m really impressed, I just wish their online menu had English.”

“Bhumi was wonderful to work with. I called her to plan a work event for about 80 people and she was attentive, quick with her replies and considered all our various diet restrictions in the order. She also followed up with me a few hours after our event to ensure all was good. I told her it was fantastic and everyone was happy and satisfied. Thank you Bhumi from our team to yours!”
“We love visiting Annapurna Mithai shop every month. Their snacks are delicious, especially the samosas and bhajis. My family likes their mithai too. We always have an excellent experience having their Indian Cardamon or Masala Chai with hot samosas and bhajis for evening snacks. Thank you.”

“lobster tower is expensive but sooooo good, seasoning is on point, meat tender not over cooked, we got veggies, steamed fish and fried rice with our combo and the portions are big. I'd come here for special occassions or if you crave fresh seafood, go for the combo it's better bang for the buck, reserve a table and bring cash, try the king crab it's also super juicy and yummy”
“Had a really good experience at Sumaq Iraqi Charcoal Grill in Scarborough. It’s a nice, casual spot with really generous portion sizes. I ordered the falafel plate with half rice and half fries, and it was honestly amazing.
The flavours were great, and I asked for it to be spicy, which they got exactly right. Everything was flavourful and satisfying. Definitely the kind of place where you leave feeling like you had a proper, full meal.
Parking was also convenient, although the place is usually pretty busy. Overall, a great spot for a hearty and flavourful meal. Would definitely go back! 🌶🍚🍟”
“This is my go-to place for biryani. The best I've had! Light, fluffy and delicately spiced. The food is so good and the staff are so friendly it's like my 2nd home! The gongura biryani (veg or chicken) is probably my favourite, also really like the mughlai chicken biryani.”
“This is the best Swiss Chalet in the GTA! The food is always well prepared, the restaurant is clean and pleasant, and most importantly, the service is outstanding! So welcoming and friendly! Even the owner often walks around and says Hello. Everybody there is so personal. It feels like a family.
Special mention goes out to Trish. She is absolutely wonderful!! She will make your day!
Michelle is pretty stellar, too!
I make it a point to visit this location, regularly. It's that good!”
“I was craving for Biryani with the authentic taste,after googling this restaurant and went for dine in. We ordered boneless chicken Biryani, lamb Biryani,paneer sizzler,garlic naan and chicken 65. Everything was delicious and exactly what I was craving for in Biryani, taste not spicy yet very flavorful. Portions size was great,took left over home. Kaushal was very polite and helpful, will definitely come back.”
“At the st. Catharine’s location at the Pen Center. I’m here with my daughter. Had the wings and fries and the dessert Divide and conquer Belgian Waffle! The service is amazing but it’s a large place so we did approach the counter right away. It’s beautiful and clean. So many delicious things on the menu to choose! I highly recommend it!”
“Great food, so many people who know the dishes, being of the same culture, queuing up patiently can't be wrong. There's two places to queue up from, the hot tables with the meal items like biryanis, curries etc. and there's the line that starts with the burfi. The curries and biryanis are delicious. The tandoori chicken leg is great and a generous size for the price. Don't forget the naan or roti. The burfi are a beautiful mosaic of colourful sweets and the ones I've tried are addictive. Next along the counters and displays are the hot snacks like spring rolls, mutton rolls (there's the vegie version as well) and the namesake snack... The samosas!!! The samosas are the most popular and they continually bring out more doing their best to keep up with the demand. Tons of people come in just for these triangles of yumminess from people buying big boxes of them for dinner at home, at a friend's house or even the company potluck to working folk stopping in for a delicious and affordable lunch that could very well fit in under the PST threshold even today in 2024. Unless you're eating them in the car as part of your limited lunchtime, the chutneys are amazing and not to be missed. There is also chai which is pretty good, but it is served nuclear hot. All in all, you can get not one, but two pretty large meals for three people for not much more than what you'll spend on McShit... If you love Indian food, this is a great place or if you're new to Indian cuisine, definitely a place to try some dishes for the first time.”

“This place has amazing food
But the staff absolutely sucks the guy with the glasses is slow they don’t come up to you they just sit there you have to ask so many times for water I asked 6 times for a can of Coke I had to go and just get it my self from the fridge it’s absolutely ridiculous. Terrible service.”
“All the women walking in Wendy’s, they are lovely nice friendly. I enjoy picking up order from there whenever I see Wendy’s on that store. I love to go there to pick order because you know they are being honest they will tell you what time is gonna be ready you know even though it’s gonna be delayed I still love them because you know they always Joaquin looking so hard. I really appreciate them. I love them so much nice.”
“it was overall great experience Sandeep and Sangita (not sure the name the pretty girl with the glasses )were fantastic we were very happy with the hospitality we received. We came a long way driving for more than 2h to satisfy our newari cuisine craving and the entire experience was awesome.”
“Takeout-only bakery with an assortment of small baked goods and drinks. I tried a few things, including the pistachio chocolate babka, the red pepper beef ciabatta and the lemon salted butter roll. All of them were great especially the red pepper beef ciabatta.The prices are on the high side but I would say it's worth it for the quality. Will be back to try the drinks and more of the baked goods.
Bring cash or use your debit card to avoid a credit card surcharge.”
“We discovered Good Eats by Julian on Instagram and decided to give it a try for a family dinner. We ordered a variety of items, including the oxtail burgers, jerk chicken meals, and BBQ jerk chicken meals.
The setup is definitely unique—they operate out of a food truck in a GO Station parking lot. Because everything is cooked fresh, be prepared to wait a little while for your order. In our opinion, the wait was worth it.
The standout item for our family was the oxtail burger. My kids haven’t stopped talking about how huge it was and are already asking when we can go back for another one! The meal portions were a good, satisfying size, and everything we ordered was flavorful. If you’re trying to decide, I’d highly recommend the BBQ jerk chicken—it was a family favourite.
Overall, it was a unique experience that exceeded our expectations. Great food, friendly service, prices are fair, and we’ll definitely be back to try more from the menu.”
“The cheap draft is kinda funky tasting, but for $5.75 CDN ok. See how I feel in the morning. Maybe I should have ordered a bottle.
Pool table, no air conditioning. Scarborough feelings. Opening hours seem to be flexible depending on the mood. Definitely enjoyed being here.”
“I came to this location to try the new Whopper. This restaurant location is inside the mall. The new Whopper did not disappoint. I recently learned a secret when it comes to ordering at any Burger King. When ordering, mention that you want your burgers “off the broiler” and you’ll get a fresh hot burger. I also used my crowns from the app to redeem my Whopper sandwich for free. The app definitely has its perks, my Whopper was free. The service was great, the food was great, and the location was busy. 5 star experience. Thank you Burger King’s hard working team.”
