Way better than the Kingston rd location and great wings. Good place to go to watch sports.

Gabbys Danforth.... Rude staff and an even more rude owner... don't bother complaining about anything because you're just going to get cussed at... absolutely appalling behavior... the usual crowd are loud obnoxious and seriously over their limits. I've witnessed tables and chairs falling all over the place on many occasions because people are way too intoxicated to think. The owner acts like he's untouchable and says things like " you're in a bar what do you expect " . I expect to be treated as a paying customer. Never going there again. also... one of the servers is literally always drunk out of her mind... my very first visit she was crying about her ex... and almost every time I ordered wings SHE GOT MY ORDER WRONG....over and over again!! let's just say ive had many free wings and stuff from her as an apology... I gave them a chance. several actually. but after that conversation with the owner.... im done. DO NOT RECOMMENDED!!!!

There was a Blue Jays game going on so I understand the restaurant was busy, but there was only one server. We ordered drinks but they never came. We were seated outside, there was no server, so we went inside to get them ourselves. The price and the portion size of the food was also đ¤ˇââď¸Sandwiches are easy to make at home too. The bill never came so we went inside ourselves. No apologies or thank yous. Terrible service.

Very cozy and the bartender was super chill. Definitely one of the smaller Gabby's I've been to.

I recently tried Gabbyâs and ordered the garlic cheese fingers, veggie burger, veggie quesadilla, and veggie fajitas. ⢠Garlic Cheese Fingers: Cheesy, garlicky, and a great starter. Perfectly baked with just the right amount of crisp. ⢠Veggie Burger: A pleasant surprise! The patty was flavorful and well-seasoned, with fresh toppings and a good bun-to-filling balance. ⢠Veggie Quesadilla: Cheesy, loaded with veggies, and satisfyingâpairs well with the dips. ⢠Veggie Fajitas: Served sizzling hot with a nice mix of vegetables and spices, making it one of the highlights of the meal.
Overall, a solid spot for vegetarians looking for variety and flavor. Would definitely come back to try more dishes.

Gabbyâs â Guildwood Village Shopping Centre
Four of us visited Gabbyâs in the Guildwood Village Shopping Centre yesterday for lunch. The restaurant opened last year, and this was our first time there. After seeing so many great reviews online, we decided to check it out.
We were greeted right away and seated where we preferred. Our server, Sarah, was wonderfulâfriendly, attentive, and helpful in guiding us with our drink choices.
Between the four of us, we ordered:
Chicken wings with fries
Onion rings
Garlic bread
Buffalo chicken wrap with fries
Braised beef stone-fired pizza
Everyone agreed the food was excellent. I had the pizza, and it was sensationalâthe beef was tender and perfectly portioned, pairing beautifully with the onions and mushrooms.
The restaurant has a great atmosphere, whether youâre enjoying a meal on the patio, dining indoors, or sitting at the bar surrounded by plenty of TVs. Service was impeccable. The washrooms were very clean, though they are located in the basement. If youâve had a few drinks, you might prefer the accessible washroom on the main floor, as the stairs are steep.
We all agreed we will definitely be backâthere are so many other tempting menu items we want to try. The amazing service we received from Sarah made the experience even more enjoyable.
Thank you, Gabbyâs!

I came to this place today because I wanted to try something new, I haven't had chicken wings in a while, it's across the street from the TIFF Lightbox, and the closest place from the Lightbox with a TouchTunes machine. Now, I liked their mozzarella sticks with marinara sauce and I love the medium chicken wings. The dessert I had being the chocolate lava cake with ice cream and chocolate sauce was good too. The problem was that it costs so much for all that food and the marinara sauce had tomato pieces in it. The bigger problem was the restaurant not letting me play some of my music. I like some classical and jazz music once in a while, but when a song from their playlist was over, I put on a song from the TouchTunes app. I picked "Echo" by Trapt because actress Michelle Trachtenberg was in the music video for that song and I hadn't been taking her death very well. The male server and the customers he was conversing with didn't like that song, saying someone changed the song on the jukebox. So, the male server shut off the song somehow and it went back to the classical music. Like what a bunch of jerks. That's like a waste of two TouchTunes credits right there. The female servers were nice. I will say that. My server Lisa with the belly button ring is a cutie and took good care of me during my time here. So, kudos to her and she will be a great actress one day. I doubt I will come back here. Not because of the whole TouchTunes thing or the price of my bill, but I live far away from Toronto anyway. I still give huge props to the medium wings, the cake, the decor, and the waitress who served me.

It is what it is, and sometimes, that's all you want. A friendly neighborhood haunt with better than average bar food and friendly staff. The guys in the kitchen will sometimes come out to chat about how the wings were, which really shows the pride they take in their work.
Great casual pub. Really great veteran staff and entertaining regulars. Very unpretentious, and good vibes. And the dine-to patio keeps getting nicer every year.

Gabbys on Egington East use to be a great place to go. Fun karaoke and very nice staff. The bar has changed hands and now I would not give them the time of day, the difference is huge.

We went for Wednesday wing nite! The wings were quite good. We also had poutine. I don't like the gravy they used. However the cheese curds were good and a generous amount. My Tequila Sunrise was lit!
Pretty slow service to get food
