“We were on a bus trip when our bus broke down. We were hungry and weary and needed a place to eat. After three employees told us NO, the manager Jenny came to our rescue. She seated us in a private dining room and got us all feed and back on the road. She was our savior. The food was delicious. Thank you“

“If you like delicious food, then this is the place, as well as for vegetarians there is a large selection.“

“I have been to several locations. Fairview, Markville, Eaton Centre, STC, and to be honest, they all have different flavor. Some locations cook their dish by Filipino style, some in Chinese cuisine style etc. Among all locations, Promenade location carries the best flavor. The owner and the food handlers have been their for long time and the flavor never changed. This location is must-go place. Other locations are just 1-2 stars tbh. GO TO PROMENADE BOURBON St.GRILL LOCATION. PLEASE TRUST MEEEEE. YOU WILL NEVER REGRET.“

“You want the best in breakfast/brunch Ramona’s kitchen is the place to visit! We travel from Oshawa to eat there when we can. Amazing service and great food“

“Angry Wings is an absolute gem! The owner and staff clearly put their heart into what they’re serving, and it’s easy to feel at home as soon as you walk in. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming—a great place to relax and enjoy some seriously good food.

I’ll admit, I didn’t expect much going in, thinking it’d be just another burger spot. But wow, was I wrong! The portions are generous, and the quality is fantastic. My burger was so fresh and flavorful that I came back the next day, throwing any thoughts of healthy eating out the window.

A little warning: if you’re on a meal plan, tread carefully—one bite of their burgers or wings, and you might just be hooked!

Thank you, Angry Wings, for a fantastic experience!

“Sandra was an absolutely fabulous waitress! She demonstrated impeccable timing with her service, always appearing right when we needed her without being intrusive. Her knowledge of the menu was impressive, and she offered tailored recommendations that suited our tastes perfectly. Sandra’s warm and engaging personality added a delightful touch to our dining experience. Her attention to detail and genuine care made us feel special and well taken care of throughout our meal. We couldn’t have asked for a better waitress!“

“Aditya is just a great person, great humor, professional, always providing the best service and not to mention he pours the BEST draft beer!!. He always goes out of his way to make you feel welcomed. See you soon your friend Sandro Go Chucks Go!!“

“My husband and I just had a delicious meal at Tea n Bannock. I highly recommend the bison burger, elk stew, and fried bannock (ok, let's be serious, is there anything better than fried bannock?!). Strawberry juice to drink, and the crumble and bear paws for dessert--also all amazing. Beautiful atmosphere, warm and friendly vibe, the people here are so great--we will definitely be back.“

“One of my favourite local spots. Lively, warm atmosphere with all the games on. Love the upstairs for a group and for the games they have to play. Nice change to the menu recently added more options other than just deep-fried food. Great for a group or for a family or for adults only.“

“The owner/chef used to be the head chef at a fine Italian restaurant so all the dishes are good and some are exceptional - like most of the soups from the soup of the day and the breakfast dishes.“

“Staff were so execellent and give smiles to every customer. Happy to their exceptional service..“

“I ordered the fish-and-chips it was amazingI ordered the fish-and-chips it was amazing Our server Frankie was amazing great service“

“The food is INCREDIBLE! Definitely come hungry because the portions are huge! Love this place. Been many times.“

“We celebrated my mom’s birthday at Ruth’s Chris Steak House, and from the moment we stepped in, it was clear this place was all about the upscale vibe. With tall ceilings, dim lighting, and a sleek, elevated interior, it felt like the perfect spot for a special occasion. The service was on another level—our servers were attentive, made sure everything was just right, and added to the polished experience. We shared the Porterhouse for Two, while the rest of my family tried other cuts of steak, lobster, and salmon. Each steak was cooked to perfection, with that melt-in-your-mouth tenderness that’s worth every bite! Paired with classic sides like mashed potatoes and broccoli, it all came together beautifully. Now, fair warning: it’s a splurge, but definitely worth it for a celebration. Highly recommended if you’re looking to mark a special occasion in style!

Parking: Be sure to park at the building just across the restaurant. Plenty of ground and underground parking“

“I ordered the wedding soup take out. $7.99 but the paper cup they give you is minuscule. Should be at least double the size for the price they charge. What a rip off. Too bad because I like there food overall“

“Absolutely stunning course with incredible views of Toronto. All the staff were amazing, but a special shout out to the half way house team who went out of their way to ensure they had 4 hot dogs ready for us at the turn.“

“For sure the best place to have skawarma in Toronto, the rest of the food is great as well, the new owner has done a great job, good prices and clean kept.
We have been going since they opened and we keep going back after all these years. This time my daughter and I came back from México to TO and eating there was a must. Thank you for keeping it in the family. All the best.“

“Sasha also was very amazing with bringing extra sauces and take out boxes and being proactive overall!!!“

“We came on Wednesday around 1 pm. It was not too busy and surprisingly in most restaurants the less customers the worse the service gets so we were really delighted when we had food and service which was 10 out of 10. Our server was Zoran and he gave us maximum level attention and care. Our food, I ordered wings and fries and my friend ordered chicken sandwich and fries, was hot and delicious. Our desserts were delightful. Thank you very much, Zoran for your excellent service and thanks to the chefs for the great Swiss Chalet food. It was a perfect dining experience and we are both so grateful.“

“Wine night on Thursday was fabulous. Verity is lovely and knowledgeable, and it's fun to listen and learn fun facts about wines, wineries, and their owners. The pairing was incredible. The 2nd food pairing was a spicy meat / noodle accompaniment that made the wine taste fanatic. I was amazed that food could elevate a beverage that much. This team at Aviator are super friendly and impressive! Thank you, team Aviator!

“Atmosphere definitely needs a little updating as it’s an old spot. The owner however is a very sweet man. We had a good conversation with him. I ordered one of the 4-Egg Omelets with Chicken and Sausage and Potato Hash. Food was decent as well, made from the heart.
Nothing to complain about.
Looking forward to come back some time for the Ribs.“

“Finally. Someone who serves meat samosas. And excellent samosas at that. At an excellent price as well. What more could one ask for. Service, food and price all excellent. I will be back often now that I have found them. And how I found them was a recommendation from a stranger standing behind me in line at a different samosa restaurant closer to home when she over heard me saying I hope they also had beef samosas. Thanks stranger. You were right.“

“Awesome service in drive thru from Julia!!!“

“I just went today for the Thanksgiving dinner. Food was very good, and the service was excellent. I have been going to this location many years. ILDA was my server I always ask for her She is warm and friendly and the service is excellent ?. For me the food is always more enjoyable with a good server ?“

“It was a good impromptu dinner with my mom. We received amazing service from Basirat who also made us laugh so much. She helped make our experience all the more enjoyable.

Parking: Plenty of spots. We lucked out and got a spot steps away from the front entrance.“

“Monday night and they had an unexpected group of 20-25 descend. One server. She was a rock star! Rolled with the punches and was calmed those getting frustrated with a backed up kitchen. One regular said many Mondays he is the only customer. The wings were amazing. The great vibe coming off the server made them worth the wait.“

“Good food, good service! Definitely will come back again :D“

“Nice location. Staff was reallt friendly and served the 10 of us who walked in at once with ease. They rearranged the tables to accommodate us, when they did not have to do so. So that was highly appreciated. We were served our cutlery nice and early and the food followed accordingly. Even though it didnt have the space of a traditional Swiss Chalet, it definitely had the warmth that comes from eating with company at said establishment. I'm not sure how often I'll be in the area, but I know where I'll be having lunch next.

“We came here first time 2 weeks ago and here we are again, tried different dishes and we are amazed! They are so many options to explore and for our experiences, it all surprisingly good! We love Savoury breakfast and Fried chicken waffle is my top choice here and angus skillet , I am not a heavy meat eater but I have to say, Angus Skillet really surprised me, also really recommend Coconut crunch waffle, not sweet at all!
Server here is super nice too, we have got Savannah this time and she is amazing! Best food recommendation and very sweet service today! We really enjoyed our Saturday Morning here.

Kid-friendliness: Super friendly experience here with both children, kids menus is amazing, and they loved smoothies too!“

“Hwa gave incredible service, she was funny and personable to a table full of kids. Food was yummy and I don't remember paying for a restaurant thinking it was so cheap. $100 for 7 people unthinkable these days.

Kid-friendliness: Kids eat free and easy to order“

“Walked in on a whim. Super friendly service and an outstanding fried chicken sandwich and salad. Nice craft beer list. Will absolutely be back.“

“5 stars for the amazing and kind service from staff! I came here last Sunday with family and kids and somehow dropped my phone not even 15 minutes into the fun. I went from panic to relief when it turned out that one of the staff who was cleaning the games (!!) found and returned my phone to the front counter right away. I am so very grateful to this kind gentleman who really saved the day and allowed my family to enjoy the rest of our time here.

We ordered some snacks and our server was friendly, quick and helpful as well! Portions were small, games were pricey but the staff and game selection really made it worth it.“

“I was there this past week for a date night with my wife. We haven't enjoyed eating out like we did at this place in a very long time. I had the carbonara and my wife had the blackened salmon. Then for desert we had the toffee pudding. Oh gosh! All meals were 10/10.
Thanks for making my Sunday night a good one. Will definitely come back“

“Amazing food! Brisket sandwich was absolutely delicious. I tried the Smoked Burger and it was great as well. Serving sizes are good, service is friendly and attentive. There's nothing like a warm, tasty, hearty meal to start the weekend off on the right foot. Can't wait to come back and try the rest of the menu!“

“It was a Friday afternoon. The five of us went in for lunch. The atmosphere in the restaurant was cozy. The food was good. The manager took our orders. And he was very friendly and attentive. After a long stroll on the boardwalk, we were a bit tired and hungry. We were glad we went picked Swiss Chalet there.“

“I love coming to this location because the food is always fresh and hot, the restaurant is always clean and the people are friendly. Yvonne, specifically, always has a big smile on her face. Its obvious that she loves her job and interacting with people and she's wonderful at both!“

“Super cool place. With great food. Highly recommend“
