Placed an order for vegetarian omelette today. But I was accidentally given a western omelette with ham inside which I didn’t realize until I finished half of it. I am a Muslim so I don’t eat pork, and that’s what I accidentally ate. The guys were also just shouting out orders by the omelette names and were randomly giving them out to customers waiting rather than going by order number on the receipt. This whole thing could have been avoided had they just done that. I even clarified if it was a vegetarian omelette when they gave it to me, and he said yes.

Ok ! This place is like food heaven ! Absolutely everything you can think of 😍
I went for the Hawaii Poké bowl and it was absolutely delicious such big portions and I felt so full and refreshed after. They also have an amazing buffet as well as pasta and the best cookie I’ve ever had in my life that was the size of my head haha ! You must go here and experience the wodnerfullness yourself.

Absolutely disappointed with this restaurant. The food quality is shockingly poor — everything tasted bland, stale, and carelessly prepared. But the biggest issue is much worse: they are serving or storing pork and halal chicken together.

For anyone who follows halal requirements, this is a massive red flag. It’s irresponsible, disrespectful, and raises serious concerns about their overall food handling standards. I honestly couldn’t believe it when I saw it.

Whether it’s legal or not, it’s definitely not ethical and shows a complete lack of professionalism. I won’t be returning, and I strongly recommend others avoid this place until they fix their practices.

I was diagnosed with severe food poisoning after eating here last Thursday. I've had the worst time for the last 3 days. Never going back

Complete rip off pricing. For my breakfast, I took a hashbrown which was half the size of the same at Tims and 1/4 of a bagel and it came to $8.52 before tax. I could have got the entire bagel toasted with some spread, a full hashbrown and a coffee for less than that at Tims just opposite end of the food court. I understand it's buffet and it's sold by weight but then your price for the weight is too high. Their box was heavier than the food I got. Not going back there ever again.

Nice little place for getting fresh cooked food. Usually have a diverse selection even for vegetarians - there’s a dal or chickpea dish, a veg pasta or mexican rice, sautéed vegetables etc to choose from. And on the backside there’s an entire counter for salads.
The two downsides I’ve noticed are that (1) menu is quite repetitive- especially if coming in few times a week. (2) Lunch hours are very packed - there’s a queue before noon itself.
(Take out only)

We went to get food, we were told it was 2.99 per pound which was believable for grocery store food. Then we paid 23 and 28, turns out it was 2.99 per 100g. We were embarrassed to dispute it but we did mention that the guy told us a different price, she said he doesn’t speak English. Anyways very disappointed, could’ve gotten far better food freshly cooked for that price.

Financially, the buffet isn't worth it because you pay by weight. The price is steep so even if you can grab just one bowl of food, you could end up paying well over $20. Save your money and go to one of the all-you-can-eat buffets downtown instead, which often have lunch specials that are +$20 and will allow you to get more than one bowl of food. It's well worth the extra commute to avoid getting fleeced, and frankly I think that's the only kind of person who thinks this place is worthwhile -- the people who care more about proximity to their workplace than taste vs. value.

This place is the afternoon lifeline for those who work at sunlife and rbc.
Always a great deal of variety at the buffet. Sometimes the queues are maddening but hey, you get fresh hot food.

I had the Big Canadian Breakfast at Olly Fresco's and was genuinely impressed. Great taste, great value, and a generous portion that made for a satisfying meal.

Being able to customize my eggs was a thoughtful option that added to the experience. While the buffet is good, this breakfast is a standout if you're looking for something more substantial.

Highly recommended for a delicious and affordable start to the day!
