Went for brunch and overall food quality was decent. The servers seem like they are short staffed and that they need to hire more staff for the amount of patrons that were there at the time. Due to being short staffed communication needs to be improved upon. There were many items that were included in our meal that were missing we had to ask for them multiple times for them when the plates were served. Overall, experience was ok but there are things that could be improved upon.

I was in a trip to Toronto when I was looking for a great small food spot with vegan options and landed in Utopia.
My wife and I was very impressed with the menu. First of all, the vegan alternatives are really vegan alternatives. My wife is vegan and she wanted The Utopia Chicken Club Sandwich but wasn’t sure if the Bacon, mayo, chicken AND the cheese would be substituted to a vegan alternative. But it was! In some places, the dressing is not adapted and the care is not put in the recipe to adapt an existing club sandwich to a new version. But here, it is available to all vegans out there. I, not being vegan, was looking at the surprisingly lengthy menu, but everything looked great and I had a hard time deciding. I finally picked the Shrimp Burrito and boy, did I made the right choice! It was hot, full of flavours, juicy and weren’t shy with the shrimps in it! (Both came with a serving of fries AND salad) My best words to the chef!
I must also add the great service by the staff from the first introduction, the resupply of napkins (while mindlessly eating my burrito) and to the final billing (which was reasonable).
I truly suggest if you are vegan (or not!) to try this wonderfull spot if your are just passing by for a day or two or if you are a local who’s looking for a new taste.
Oh! If you’re wondering why I don’t have pictures, it’s because I thought of leaving a review after we completely emptied our plates. Sometimes, experimenting is better. Thank you!

The food was amazing and the server was so sweet and kind to us. It made me feel so great to have such a good quality meal that filled up my stomach for a great price! I'm so grateful to have found this spot so close to where I live. I definitely plan on bringing my boyfriend here as a treat soon.

I went for brunch, and my food arrived cold, which I really didn’t enjoy,especially eating cold eggs. The rest of the dish lacked a bit of seasoning, and the food for the people I was with also arrived cold. Their plates looked better, but nothing that truly impressed me. It took a long time to get our bill so long that we had to stand up and ask for it on our way out. I understand they seemed short-staffed. The place itself is lovely for going with friends or a partner, but it could improve. I had higher expectations.

Great spot for a tasty and affordable lunch. Huge menu and they actually seemed to do everything we ordered well! Very friendly staff (it gave us a family owned restaurant vibe, which it may be!). Chicken karaage was beautifully crispy and the sauce went perfectly with it. Caeser salad was great too! They were able to accommodate a dairy intolerance and suggested a substitute for the tzatziki on the souvlaki wrap and it turned out excellent!
Also, the prices were very fair!
Back enclosed patio has good air conditioning too!

The owner Ange herself greeted us, took our order, and made sure everything was perfect. The food was absolutely delicious, and the overall vibe of the place was great. The back patio is comfortable and very appealing a lovely spot to relax and enjoy your meal

My go-to brunch spot. I always get the eggs benedict and it is great. I prefer crispy* homefries and they do that here. There are also specific plates for the vegans and vegetarians in your life.
Fabulous vegetarian chili, awesome burger, Mocktails are terrific- Arnold Palmer & Mojito!

While I do love the atmosphere of the back patio, the food here was worse than I'd expected given the ratings.
It was basically just mediocre. I got the traditional breakfast from the brunch menu, and while the sausage was decent, the eggs were kinda grey and bland. I even for a moment wondered if they accidentally gave me vegan eggs because the flavour was so lacking. I mean, how do you mess up scrambled eggs? To be fair though, the homefries were pretty good, but the baked beans and salad were both meh. Service was also rather slow.
Overall not bad, but I don't feel like the food is worth what you pay for it.

This place is a gem!
The burritos are better than Chipotle and the Burrito Boy's across the street. Every time we come here we are puzzled thar it isn't bussier? I get the roasted pepper, mushroom and goats cheese salad with chicken for a low carb keto option, husband loves the burger and says the fries are top notch!
Son gets the sweet potato quesadilla with the sauce and sweet potato on the side (cheese and bread eater). He lov de the cheese blend and rates it one of the best in the city!
Pretty much everything on this menu is delicious.

After spending 3-4 years in Canada, this is the worse experience we have had in a restaurant. We waited more than 30 mins for food, 1:30 hours for food, and more than 10 mins each to use toilets. After all this wait, fries were cold, we didn't get any cutlery. While talking with other people in the line to the toilet, they had the same experience. A total DyStopia, never coming back!
