Yummy food - cauliflower salad, assorted dips and pita and we really enjoyed the schnitzel
We were very impressed with every dish we ordered... and we ordered many. Outstanding. We're from Ottawa and try to visit parallel every time we're in Toronto. They never disappoint.

I love Parallel! The food is always fantastic as is the service! No complaints there. I have just one gripe. Please make the tables for 2 a little bigger and maybe don't place them right in walk way of kitchen & bathrooms..?
Lovely dinner experience. I sat outside and it was slightly too warm with the heaters. However, kiara was very attentive and a great server.

Food was great, we loved the dips and the falafel. Have to come back to try more items but hopefully they improve their service. The server wasn't attentive or available much!

It was colder inside than in the heated patio. People including myself were sitting in jackets and hats indoors. We had the hummus with chicken and it was mid, however I tried other dishes on other days and they were superb.
I've been coming here for 3 years now and the quality and taste of the food never disappoints.
Excellent good. Love the relax vibe. Great service and amazing food. Definitely going back.

Parallel is one of my absolute favorite restaurants in Toronto, and that says a lot because I’m a big foodie. Everything they serve is incredibly fresh, full of flavor, and always consistent. The portions are generous, and the prices are very fair for what you get. It’s the kind of place where every dish feels made with care and quality ingredients.
Over the years, I’ve tried many different items on their menu, and I’ve never been disappointed. Their hummus is homemade, super creamy, and easily some of the best in the city. And their falafel? The best in Toronto, hands down. If you think you like falafel, you need to try the one from Parallel — it’s perfectly crispy outside, soft inside, and bursting with flavor.
The service has always been friendly and efficient, and the atmosphere is simple but warm and comfortable. It’s the kind of place you can go to again and again and always leave happy. I don’t know why it took me so long to finally write this review because Parallel has been one of my favorite spots for years. It’s a true gem in the city, and I completely recommend it to anyone who loves good, fresh food.

Everything was perfect! They even had a little market where you get to buy premade salad, tahini cookies and brownies. I left the restaurant energized by their wholesome food and friendly staff!
