great and yummy food for the most part. service is slow, was checked on once while being there for an hour or so
Best Thanksgiving celebration place.
Hadn't been in years. Was very pleasantly surprised the current owners left it alone for the most part. Great experience all around. Brenda loved it too. The crackling was a great touch to Thanksgiving.

The Lakeview Diner is a nostalgic late-night spot in Toronto that has made a comeback to its former glory days. The diner vibe from the 80s adds a warm, old-style atmosphere, with quiet, comfy booths that create a cozy setting. The back area could use more lighting, but the overall ambiance remains inviting. It's a popular place for friends to gather after hours, especially for delicious late-night apple pie milkshakes. Their specialty is the best club sandwich in Toronto, served quickly with fantastic taste that keeps customers coming back for more. The food quality is back, with dishes like the Mac and Cheese being as good as ever. Customers have praised the excellent and yummy food, including the milkshakes and burgers, which are described as delicious. The service is warm and friendly, with staff remembering regular customers’ orders and providing attentive help. Even during late nights, the energy remains lively, making it a great spot after work or a night out. The menu offers a satisfying selection of diner staples, from sandwiches and burgers to thick milkshakes and house-made pies. Drinks are served in cans with a glass and lots of ice, adding to the classic feel. While some consider it a bit pricey, many prefer it over trendier downtown diners due to the quality and portion sizes. The dark, weathered look of the restaurant contributes to its cool ambiance. Overall, Lakeview Diner remains a beloved spot for comfort food, good service, and a nostalgic setting, perfect for relaxed get-togethers at any hour.
