10/10! I got the philadelphia roll, fish was french and delicious. Great quality and lovely service. Waiter was super friendly which made my experience so much better and comfortable. They even have a rewards program! I absolutely recommend it visiting!

I recently got sushi for takeout from Casa Sushi and it was really worth it. The staff there were really good too. Overall I would recommend this place if you want a good sushi.

I ordered the buy one get one free Spicy Crunchy Avocado Roll. The portion is very reasonable and taste so fresh. I'd absolutely recommend this place to my friends and colleagues.

It was my first time going to the Casa Sushi, my overall experience was good. The food was good, I generally order the bento box chicken teriyaki and comparing that with other places is more expensive. It was good though. Our server was nice too.

Very accessible, we could get seating right away on a Saturday night. Frankly, pretty disappointed with the food quality. I think it's fair to say that the price is on the higher side especially considering the portion sizes and poor presentation. Greek Salad - I found some pink parts on the lettuce and overdressing made it soggy Saganaki – good, enjoyed with pita breads Grilled Calamari – nice, a bit tasteless though Chicken Souvlaki – I felt it overcooked and dried Moussaka – way too greasy with excess oils not coming from the beef. Their service didn’t make up for it, actually she made my experience even worse. She was almost rude, rarely gave me eye contact and mostly talked only to my company even when I asked some about the menu to her. I guess this was because the friend is a male and obviously elder than me, but anyway quite uncomfortable. There’s no reason coming back here overall, we have lots of much better Greek restaurants in this area.

First time I’ve been here and it was lovely. I went with my friend and we both enjoyed ourselves. I don’t have much experience with Greek food but this was very delicious. The chicken and pork souvlaki was seasoned and cooked perfectly. We both got 2 of each and shared. The tzatziki wasn’t like traditional tzatziki with cucumbers but it was delicious. The dolmades were good tho they taste good from the can too and are cheaper. For the mains with both got calamari. She got the fried and I got the grilled. The fried tasted better but I’m glad I got to try the grilled. It was reasonably priced for what it is. The sides were savoury and rice and baked potatoes. Both were good but nothing groundbreaking. The server was very nice and attentive. Very happy with the service. Also as a side note the washroom was very clean and actually smelled nice, doesn’t happen often for a public washroom lol All in all i had a great experience and I would go again.

We have been dining in at Astoria for many years - clean and welcoming atmosphere with a family feel! As soon as you walk in, you feel as though you’re walking into a Greek household. The food is excellent and we had the pleasure of being served by Dina. She was kind and pleasant, and our experience overall amazing. Highly recommend the flaming cheese and chicken souvlaki dinner with tzatziki. The mousaka (not pictured here) is also a delicious Greek staple.

Once again. Perfect visit. Service and food is amazing 👏 brought my neice for lunch, visiting from out of town. Great place to eat and catch up. We had a splendid time!

Sadly Astoria is not what it once was. The food in now just "okay," the prices are on the high side and the service is not even close to adequate... the waiter my wife and I had was indifferent. Several items (Greek beer, Merlot wine, etc.) on the menu we not available. I even heard from another table the waiter say they didn't have chocolate milk, which is also on the menu. This shows how inept Astoria's current management is. When you charge the prices Astoria is charging you expect a reasonably good dining experience, which was the case years back, but no longer. Given that Astoria is in Toronto's Greek town, there are many much better Greek dining options close by, which I suggest you take advantage of.

Pantheon has become our go-to spot for authentic Greek food. The quality and freshness of their dishes are outstanding, creating an amazing culinary experience. The atmosphere is fantastic, providing a great backdrop for a delightful meal. The customer service at Pantheon is truly exceptional – accommodating and attentive. Everyone in our party left more than satisfied with their meals. Personally, I couldn’t get enough of the lamb chops; they stand out as some of the best I’ve ever had. Don’t forget to save room for dessert – it’s a sweet ending to an already fantastic dining experience. Without a doubt, I would highly recommend Pantheon to anyone looking for top-notch Greek cuisine in a welcoming setting.

Was craving Greek food and I found Pantheon… DELICIOUS! I love Greek food and I was so impressed. Portions are great. Got the grill mix and had leftovers to take home. Will definitely come back!

By far the best Greek restaurant owned and run by original owners after 26 yrs. Delicious fresh tasty food amazing service been going since the beginning and will continue as long as they own it!! Love it and highly recommend this place…delicious authentic Greek cuisine ..5 stars Well sadly …it has changed recently changed ownership so let’s see if the new owners can keep up the quality and service but to be honest I highly doubt it will be the same. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Went in for an early family Easter dinner. The place was the busiest I've ever seen. Still got fantastic service and great food. The simple yet delicious 10oz grilled salmon was probably one of the best I've had. Absolutely perfect crust, and fresh. The chef here knows his stuff. My sister got moussaka, and it was almost as good as my Mom's! My daughter (who never eats leftovers) took everything home that she couldn't finish. That's saying a lot.

Having been going here since years! Food is good, service is basic and fast. Had the chicken gyro combination meal. It’s comes with a choice of ceaser or Greek salad. Choice of rice , roasted potato or fries and choice of 2 pita sandwiches. Prices at $24, very reasonable. We were 2 and paid $32 including HST and tips. Overall good experience
Smriti Singh - 3 weeks ago

I wonder what's the marketing strategy behind the wait time between salads/apps and receiving the main course. It was an exact 40-minute wait. We had to ask the waiter to check on our food. I thought they would forget but no, other clients also had the same issue. Food is good-ish. Could have used more flavour. By the time we got our main meal, we were full from salad and free pita. So if you don't mind, please serve faster. Note that the restaurant wasn't that busy and it was 6 pm on a Wednesday.
Vivian P - 4 months ago

Our choices were a Greek Fries, a Mixed Pork/Chicken Gyros Pita, a Pork Gyros Pita, and a Pork Gyros Plate. They were all very tasty. We faced a queue. The prices are worth it.
Azemar Sepúlveda Neto - 2 weeks ago

Good food and super fast service. The tzatziki and Spanakopita were delicious. I love that the gyros have fries in them. However the beef and lamb was very chewy.
Danielle Ferrone - 2 months ago

Cool classic spot on the Danforth. To be honest my expectations were higher for the food. The Greek salad was the best part. The Greek fried were OK but nothing extraordinary. The gyros which was the main even I was not a fan of. The fries inside were mushy and the whole thing was dry and lacked flavor and did not taste refreshing and flavorful like a good gyros should. The prices are very fair considering portion sizes. The whole experience was OK but not spectacular

Authentic, delicious food, tender grilled pork souvlaki was excellent. Horiatiki salad was delicious and good size. The fries could use some improvement but that would be my only complaint. Otherwise the new space is excellent, service very attentive and overall my favourite place for Greek food in this city. The tzatziki was excellent and the warm bread-fantastic!
Lisa S - a month ago

Restaurant is gorgeous! Always busy, but Sunday early dinner was only a 20 min wait. Servers are super busy so be clear when trying to get their attention or you’ll be waiting a long time. And they won’t give balsamic vinegar or oil automatically so be kind and ask! Attached are pics with reviews and prices

Higly recommended! The food was excellent, and the staff were very attentive and kind. Washrooms are clean, and the whole place is spacious and nicely decorated. The price's fair, considering it's a fine restaurant in Toronto.
Celeste Vado - 2 months ago

So consistently delicious. Highly recommend for family dinners, romantic nights out or even a solo meal. The servers are very attentive, the food is amazing and the atmosphere is incredible.
Kristina Elkhazin - 3 months ago

They have recently done a very beautiful renovation and great interior design. I love it! Feels so cozy and spacious at the same time! I love it! Food is great, I recommend the hummus appetizer a lot! They still need to work on their vegetarian main course options. I loved the vegetarian appetizers but didn't like the vegetarian main dish. Room to improve that!

A birthday dinner. The place has a straightforward dinner experience, simple chairs and sturdy tables. You get to watch the open kitchen or if facing away from the culinary magic the people on the Danforth. The food is fresh and made with top ingredients. The lobster pasta was good, linguini with shrimp and fried vegetables. It was layered nicely, but nothing special. The ravioli and gnocchi was a hit. Sexy duck is highly recommended. The sauce for both was very good, and the serving size was ample.
Jonathan Tepper - a week ago

We had a beautiful experience at 7 numbers. Me and my partner came in for a late dinner and we’re met with warm hospitality. Great ambiance and delicious pasta. Nirma was an attentive and great server. If I could give 6 starts for service I would! Thank you for making our visit perfect. We will come back very soon. Ciao!

One of Danforth's best spots! It was an unplanned visit as we were looking for a spot to eat before a show. We walked in (but def recommend to make a reso) and they were able to accomodate us. We were blown away by the quality of their menu. The Burrata was just divine - i love Burrata as it is but the tomatoes and zucchini really elevated it. The Arancini is one of the best ones I've had... im a truffle girly and the truffle in this is the right amount (as per me). The Pennette with pesto, green beans and potatoes was amazing! One of the best pesto pasta dishes I've had. No joke - i think about it still. The Focaccia bread... i had to highlight this - it's one of the best breads I've tried. I love how its not bready at all but has a cake consistency which im here for. This is gonna be the reason I come back. The drinks were amazing and I really loved the Sparkling Lemon. Will have to try and make it at home.
Myca - 2 weeks ago

Generally speaking, I liked the atmosphere and the food. The highlight for me were the duck meat skewers. Good selection of wine as well. The veal dish was a bit too fatty for my taste. Overall, I’d say this restaurant is slightly overpriced.
pronins - 6 months ago

Second time at 7 numbers and this time really ruined my experiences there. 1) service was lackluster. We had made a reservation for eight people and had asked if we could all sit at a single table. They had agreed to it. When we got there they had given us two tables of four. There was an available table of eight as well as another table that could fit 8 but only had two people sitting at it. When we asked if we could get the available table of 8, they said that it was booked for a family of eight. Why the other group was prioritized over us, I am uncertain. But also they could have just planned better and held on the other table of eight instead of sitting instead of just two people there. If I wanted to eat with just my family then I would have ate at home and not paid to eat out. Ridiculous. 2) food - we ordered Burrata, lasagna, rapini and chicken parmasiana. Everything was super salty. Burrata was ok. Nothing special. Lasagna was below average tasting. In fact, I've made a lot of lasagna that tasted better than the one I had here. The rapini was routine. And the chicken was horribly disappointing. Not just super salty but also dry. Overall it was very disappointing and the fact that we couldn't sit with the other family that we had booked with made the experience really bad. Unfortunate since our first time here was good

This is such an amazing place and my favourite for waffles and ice cream. Honestly, I haven't tried anything else since I'm so obsessed over the waffles. Honestly, these are the best waffles I've ever tried in my life, anywhere! There's something very special about them (in the dough) but it makes them taste so gooood! My fav is Pretty in pink, but all of them are just great. You can change the ice cream flavor to make a combination to your taste if you want. Ice cream is so creamy and rich, so good. It's a big waffle and it's loaded! It's a lot of calories and sugar for sure but so worth it! The place is really nice and cute, not very comfy though. They have crepes, cakes, cheesecakes and so many more things (I'm sure they're really good too).
Alejandra Piña Bojórquez - a month ago

The interior is nice and its very instagrammable which I like :). Their washroom is very clean and for the service, it’s fine. The server is nice and polite. Their price range are very reasonable because it’s really good and its a big serving for one people.

A great place for getting some delicious calories! The waffles and ice cream is amazing! Been there twice and Will go there again for sure!

Demetres on Danforth is worth the visit. The interior is absolutely lovely. The ice creams were delicious and we ordered some tea for our visit. The server did an excellent job in taking care of our tables aswell. They were very courteous and assured we had a great time. Thank you!

This place has the best desserts I've ever had 🤩. I'm not really into banana flavored food but this place has a banana ice cream damn! best ice cream flavor I've ever had. I've had the banana split for 2 people but it can easily be for 4 people, it's humongous. It is expensive though, I paid close to $40 for a banana split and almost $30 for a waffle (tax and tip included)

I just finished my meal and I can say I am positively wowed. All of the dips had lots of garlic and flavor. The spanakopita was super crispy. The saganaki had an excellently high flame and the presentation was superb. Next time I come up to Canada I would like to return. Also there is some lovely artwork on the wall.

Amazing Greek restaurant! Lots of seating and very nice place for a quiet dinner getaway. It’s in the heart of Greektown and there’s street parking but also a few GreenP lots around the area. We had the Tzatziki dip and the Feta cheese, which came with amazing, warm breads, superb to make small bites and spreads. Moreover, we had the spinach pies (Spanakopitakiya), which were very good, in shapes of mini-Samosas, we also the stuffed vine leaves (Dolmades), which were also delicious. Apart from the feta cheese, the highlight of the evening was the chicken gyros platter, which was out of the world (came with a large salad on the side). We also had their fried cod fish, which was satisfactory. Overall, a great trip and would definitely recommend especially as the prices here are extremely affordable. Thanks!

Great service at this restaurant. After all these years their salad dressing is still my favourite on the Danforth. Quiet. Tidy. Professional service. Good recommendations. We enjoyed a variety of dips plus the souvlaki meals. Ask your server about their greek beer options

This is a great Filipino tea shop that serves a variety of Filipino drinks and desserts, as well as your standard selection of bubble teas. Halo halo is one of my favourites, and they do it pretty well here. Generous serving of ingredients. They have a good selection of hot foods as well which are worth coming back for and trying it. The decor inside is also very cozy feeling, making it a great place to hangout in the evening size they open until 2am.
David Xing - 2 months ago

We got the Halo Halo, Matcha Red Bean Crepe, follow @bredgyeats for more food photos! A sign of a good dessert is when you're absolutely stuffed, yet still find room to fit a halo halo and crepe inside somewhere. I find halo halo kind of like a puzzle to eat, after finishing a portion you unlock another, working your way from the ube ice cream, granola to the caramel flan, digging deeper into the shaved ice and then the sweetened beans and jelly, all finished all with a drizzle of evaporated milk. The crepe had the perfect amount of chew and fluffiness, stuffed with a generous amount of not-too-sweet red bean filling and topped with a drizzle of maple syrup, powdered sugar and more red beans. The vanilla whipped cream on the side provides a nice temperature contrast to each bite and adds to the airiness.
Bredgy L. - a month ago

After reading the awesome reviews, I needed to experience it myself. Matcha Tea Latte was definitely delicious, creamy and made with almond milk. My friend had the chocolate cake which was delicious and enjoyed coffee with almond milk. They had plenty of selection of sweets unfortunately they were not dairy free.

Cute spot and the food and drinks were good. 👍🏼 Staff were friendly. However, I’m not sure if it was just a busy night but if you’re looking to do some studying here I wouldn’t say it’s the best cafe unless you like a lot of noise. It was a bit distracting hearing the coffee machines, people coming in/out, the music wasn’t as “cafe” like and there wasn’t a lot of outlets around it’s understandable since it is small and there’s not a lot of seating area. Still great if you need to be out on a whim for a late night study session just be wary of the noise. Overall, I would definitely come here again with my friends to try more of their food and drinks 😋
Erica Len - 2 months ago

Been here a few times now and have always been impressed with what I've ordered and with the service received. There really is something for everyone here. I wanted something warm, parents wanted something cold and fiance wanted something in between. The portions were more than decent! My bowl of soup was filled to the brim and my parents' halo halo was served in a big bowl for easy sharing. I couldn't believe how much ice cream came with the affogato. We were already full but demolished it cause it was so good. I plan to try their meals one day; the table next to us ordered food and the bowls looked huge. I will always support Filipino businesses but I try to be objective too. This place deserves all the business. If given the choice for tea, dessert, etc I will hands down opt to go here, just on value for money alone.

Ordered a banana chocolate crepe and a strawberry milkshake through doordash. The crepe tasted just ok, but the milkshake was yummy. The prices are pretty high for what you get.
Scarlett - a week ago

Great place. I was one of the first to try their belgian waffles, which they toast to make nice and hot before dipping into their chocolate sauces just like the cones, and then also just like the cones you can add toppings. I went for cereal and graham crackers on one waffle and reese pieces on the other. Overall a great waffle ice cream sandwich, and the staff were amazing!
Matt W - 7 months ago

They have vanilla soft serve, 3 different sizes, and you get to choose the dip and toppings. Ice cream tastes very sweet, and customer service was great, 3 large cone soft serve were $27
Rania Ca - 9 months ago

Nice place, open late (until 1am) if you feel like snacking at night. Tried waffles, presented as Belgian, but they tasted like old bun dough. The ice cream is okay, but looks and tastes a bit like it’s artificially flavored. Chocolate lava cake didn’t have chocolate filling and didn’t “ooze out”, but tasted good though
Sezim - a year ago

Great spot for ice cream lovers! La Diperie offers excellent choices in vanilla softy dips with added toppings as well as some really good hard ice cream and sorbet options. They also serve shakes and some good desserts to choose from at a very pocket friendly price. We tried their Dark chocolate vanilla softy dipped in almonds and oreo crumbs and tried a chocolate cone topped with nuts and both were delicious! Surely coming back for more. Update: I've always loved la diperie but now there's a better reason to visit them more often! They've introduced delicious Belgian waffles to their menu that tastes SO delicious. I tried their chocolate chip cookie dough waffle and the molten lava cake one and both were yummy licious!
