Family Restaurants in Toronto, ON

“A lovely, family-run spot where the staff are as warm and welcoming as the food is hot and delicious. Keep a special eye on their rotation of absolutely decadent desserts and weekend specials! I always feel cared for when I leave, even if I'm just picking up an order.“

“Friendly staff with good customer service! The grub is fresh and so delicious🙂Keep coming back……“

“This location is always slammed and I can’t imagine working in a place like this. I always try to be kind to the workers here. They are always kind back, the food was standard for NYF. Overall the atmosphere can be chaotic but if you are kind to these guys they will be kind back.“

“Nice friendly atmosphere for a great dinner or breakfast.“

“Several of us have been going to Occasions for lunch each Sunday after church for for at least a year. The quality of their food & service has never disappointed. Kudos to our servers Karen, Daniella, Adam and Heather and to the chefs who prepare each meal to perfection.“

“Went to this location for the first time last week Friday and it was fantastic. The lady at the counter was great. I ordered suya, plantain and puff puff - it was fresh and very delicious. The puff puff comes in the cute black and yellow design bag.

I went again yesterday. This time I ordered just the suya and puff puff and it tasted amazing as well. Definitely check them out. I know I'll be back again.“

“One of my favourite restaurants in the city. I grew up in the area and even worked here for some time in my youth, and even tho the ownership changes hand occasionally, it's comforting being able to come back even decades later and enjoy the same recipes and flavours, untouched, that originally put this place on the map! Keep up the good work everyone.“

“I've tried quite a few different Churrasqueiras recently and I have to say that the chicken from here is amazing. It beats out most places. I ordered the chicken, sausage and the tart. The tart was mind blowing and beat out every other Portuguese place. But the sausage did let me down. I've been looking for a good competitor to Azores from Cambridge, and they won once again. The potatoes were okay, they do make them differently than other restaurants, it's more like baked. It was still delicious but I sort of expected a more softer version. The sauce was nice and combined with rice and chicken it really came alive. Didn't tastle like Piri-piri though, more like buffalo sauce. Nevertheless, the food was great overall and I'll likely come here again.“

“Food is utterly awesome. Servers so friendly. 👍“

“In the few days that I was in Toronto to catch a Rock concert, I was fully compelled to eat here twice. Excellent food, beautiful vintage decor, unmatched vibe. I’ll be absolutely certain to visit here again the next time that I am in Toronto. 💖“
