Amazing staff so kind and friendly, even better food some how. I ate myself into a coma it was so good. COME HERE! the decor and vibes are immaculate

Pretty good Mexican food in a really fun environment. Stopped by for lunch and got the tacos aguilenos, tacos adobados, and guacamole. Both tacos had a fair amount of meat and the mole was tasty and earthy. The guacamole meanwhile was rich and smooth. Food was a bit pricey for the portion sizes but everything is expensive these days.
The star of the show though was the place and the people. Decor and music were so colorfully vibrant, and the people were so welcoming and kind. This place definitely has a great vibe!

Came to visit right after the restaurant opened, skipped all the rush hours. The entire restaurant had a very homely atmosphere. Food was tasty and the portions were so great!!
Food was amazing, we ordered guacamole to start and a veggie platter for two shared among the three of us and it was more than sufficient amount of food. The owner/server was so friendly and got everything very quick. Food was fresh and I would highly recommend anyone who wants to try authentic mexican food. It’s close to the subway and you will not be disappointed!

Food is excellent, but if they are busy, may be long wait for food. To avoid that, we usually get here by 6:30 pm. The chicken tamale very tasty. Sangria was okay. The meat platter for 2 very good, more than enough food. Friendly service, Thank you!

Entering El Sol was like going into a museum of Mexico's Mayan and Aztec past. The walls are beautifully decorated with various artifacts that I wish I had more to inspect closely. I had the Carne Asada which was well seasoned and delicious. The potatoes complemented the dish wonderfully. The manager/owner? provided some pickled peppers on the side which kicked it up a notch. Overall, terrific food, service and atmosphere. A genuine authentic Mexican culinary experience. It was like eating at a Mexican home not just a restaurant.

Hi! Today I went to a Model UN conference and needed takeout in a hurry. Yanagi Sushi was amazing, the chefs made everything freshly and the waitress sat me down at a table to wait and relax. They were also clear and exact on wait times, and were very kind. Their lunch comes with delicious miso soup and a fresh salad. I had the 6pc spicy salmon and 6pc spicy tuna lunch meal. 10/10! Would reccomend, especially for people with more sensitive stomachs who still love sushi. Did not upset my stomach at all and I love Yanagi Sushi! 🩷

The pork katsu was really good. The lovely lady showed us a card board written with their email for interac since we didn’t bring any cash. Me and my wife did not even finish the whole meal since it was so massive. Not bad for its price which is $12. Highly recommended for cheap eats.

The best sushi place ever! Me and my partner order our favourite rolls from here almost every week. We also went there a few times to dine-in over the last couple years and it's been always clean and welcoming, service is super professional and friendly. Food is fresh and absolutely delicious! If I had to choose 1 meal I would have to eat for the rest of my life I would go for salmon-avocado-mango hand roll. Seriously. The green and golden dragon are must-try's too. Every time we come in we get complimentary ice cream or appetizer from their owner. Great proffesional staff that serve great food. Thank you!

A true Toronto gem! I have been to many sushi restaurants over the years, and Yanagi Sushi is truly top notch for fresh, high-quality sushi. Every roll is incredibly fresh, perfectly soft, crispy in all the right places, and expertly prepared. You can truly taste the quality of the ingredients in every bite. I come here frequently, have invited guests, and we have never been disappointed. Yanagi Sushi is an awesome sushi restaurant that never disappoints!

My husband and I love coming here. The food is always top-notch, the service is amazing and everyone is very friendly. It does get busy with people coming in to order and Uber. So if you want to get a seat, make sure you come early- its always full!

I recently visited Sunset Grill for breakfast with one of my friend and overall experience I had a good experience . The customer service was really friendly and welcoming, which made the visit enjoyable. I especially liked the pancakes and the orange juice they were fresh and tasty.
However, one small issue was with my order. I got a cheeseburger, but it didn’t have any cheese, just the meat, which was a bit disappointing. Overall, the food was decent, not amazing but not bad either. I’d still consider coming back for breakfast.

Disappointed with this visit. The restaurant didn’t feel clean, and the service was quite slow from start to finish. The food itself was just okay, but the hollandaise sauce was really off. When I pointed it out to the server, it was met with dismissal instead of concern. Between the lack of cleanliness, slow service, and poor attitude, the experience fell well below expectations.

Quite serene and a wide range of food options on the menu. Service was quick and our order experienced no delay.

Solid breakfast place on East Danforth near Coxwell. Relaxed atmosphere accented by ceiling fans and hanging faux Tiffany lights decor. Two female servers working the room this mid-week morning were courteous, attentive and efficient. I had 3 eggs, 4 sausages, toasts & homes fries combo breakfast special (8-11 am) for $11.99 plus $2.99 bottomless tea or coffee. You can substitute home fries for French fries, pretty decent option.

I’ve ordered the southwest chicken wrap multiple times from this location and they NEVER disappoint me. Packaged perfectly for pick up, sauce on the side, cutlery, condiments etc. Worth the $18. Great portion, presentation and tasty.

Great local bar, good atmosphere, bar crowd friendly. Good sports on various TVs. Excellent food, love the wings especially, and wide variety of home cooked options. Mary is great and runs a good clean bar, highly recommended.

This place is amazing! We came in here by chance and Mary immediately greeted us and asked us our names. She’s fantastic. The bar is super clean and the beer is cold and the lines are clean.
I would’ve paid for the conversation with her alone 🙏

So as the add-ons part of the menu says $3.50 for three sausage links and $3.50 for three pieces of bacon. I’ve been coming to this location for like over six years because I live right next-door to it. So sometimes I’ll come and just get Extras for what I’m cooking at home. The lady this morning was super rude, impatient, and I get it it’s cold and the economy sucks but the least thing we can all be as personable. It costs nothing. So I just gave her kindness and left, but she tried to charge me An extra dollar so I canceled the sausage links and just got bacon, but my receipt says small coffee?
Queen DD - 5 months ago
Absolutely terrible value for the money. $4.19 for a bag of fries that is less than half full. It’s insulting to hand a customer food that looks like someone already ate half of it on the way to the counter. Incredibly stingy portions for the price.
Stephen Whelan - a month ago
I don’t know what the staff here has been taught in their training, but the prices what’s displayed isn’t what they charge to the customers. $6 for Nanak burger + combo($5.60) which includes fries & drink should be $11.60 plus tax, but the staff here says, it’s $6 for the burger, $5.60 for the combo plus $1.41 for the drink because the drink doesn’t come in the combo & there was another customer who ordered the same & was asked to pay. Even though on display it says, combo includes fries & drink, shows same on app & website but it’s different in-person.
Weird service & information..!
I had to just take a burger instead of $15 for what they were asking.

Great experience at this A&W! The location was super clean and well-maintained, which made the visit even more enjoyable. Service was impressively fast — my order was ready within minutes. The staff were all very friendly and welcoming, making sure everything was just right. Definitely one of the better fast food spots I’ve been to lately. Will be coming back!

Went to this location. The service was good staff is friendly. I was there at night only 2 people working for a 24hr location but the store itself was dirty food on the floor tables not cleaned and the most disgusting thing is the sinks they have next to the service counter. More staff would be recommended to help clean the location I did notice the manager constantly washing her hands after cooking and serving people 👍 but wearing gloves would be better.

I came in first thing in the morning and was happy to see they were open. The gentleman serving me was so polite with the right amount of small talk. The veggies were fresh, the bread was fresh and the service was amazing.
The restaurant was clean, tables, floors, machines and best of all no crumbs.
I got a 6" BLT and it was absolutely delicious 😋, that I almost regretted not getting a 12" (but that was just the foodie in me). Hands down, my best and favorite Subway shop ever. Thank you to the kind gentleman that served me that morning

I love this place! As a queer person longing for a safe place in the city (especially the east end) I found it here!
I’ve been coming here for over a year now and not once have I been disappointed. Want friendly and attentive staff, they’ve got it. Want tasty food, they’ve got it (the wings and fries NEVER disappoint) Want a place that gives you a cozy, neighborhood bar vibe, they’ve got that too. Just come here and see for yourself and support a great local business!

You need to go here. Actually.. DON’T! I want to keep it a secret! I want to keep it to myself! But seriously, you’re a fool if you live in the neighbourhood and this isn’t your #1 haunt. Everyone in here is an absolute gem. Drink, eat, sing your heart out, feel safe and loved and welcome. They’re the best.

Love this place. The vibes are impeccable. What the owners have created here is something truly special. It’s everything you want in a local spot — welcoming and filled with heart. You can genuinely feel the care and effort that’s gone into making it more than just a bar.
The drink selection is excellent, and the wings and fries absolutely hit the spot.
We were there to watch Heated Rivalry and the atmosphere was perfect. They even let us stay to watch one more episode.
This is a rare gem in Toronto, and we’ll definitely be back.

Fun lil gay-friendly bar I went to today to catch the NBA finals. I was in East York (where I rarely ever am) and needed to find somewhere nearby to watch the game - stumbled into this cute little location run by Indigenous 2S individuals, Natasha and CC, and it was awesome.
They offer great food and programming, centering the community in a really interesting and fun way. Will be back in a flash if I get a chance!
The smoked lime tequila wings were really fun!

I recently bought a bowl, the flavours and taste was nice and it was fairly filling. The only downside was the packaging which really needs improvement. My cover fell out (it's a very loose for on the bowl) and some of the sauce spilled out. In addition the paper bowl gets soggy really quick so be aware.

Best burritos around this part of town, they really take pride in delivering good tasting food.

Honestly, place was clean, the worker was nice. However I think the pricing is a bit much, as someone who is vegetarian I ordered just a plain veggie quesadilla. & at first the girl didn’t even ask if I wanted beans she just asked if I wanted the soy meat. I said no and proceeded to the veggies than I realized they had beans while my quesadilla was in the toaster and asked to have a little bit. Also guac is usually added to any veggie meal without charge at most places and it just seemed like a rip off tbh. I get charged for a quesadilla and then an extra 2$ for beans!!!it’s a veggie quesadilla the beans are suppose to be a must! Anyways, I won’t be coming back because my quesadilla was suppose to be 12.99+ tax and came up to 18$ with all the up chargers. Ridiculous. They couldn’t even add shrimp to a small burrito they said it has to be large? & couldn’t add shrimp into the quesadilla. Seems a bit greedy. I know times are hard but why do I have to spent so much just to eat?

I visited Barburrito around 9 PM, and even though it was a little busy, the service was impressively fast. The food arrived warm, and the taste did not disappoint! The portion of protein was just right, making it a satisfying meal. I highly recommend trying their tacos—they were absolutely delicious! Overall, it was a great dining experience, and I would definitely come back again.

Have been a regular for past 3 years and its an absolute heart warming experience every time! Every dish is simple, comforting and super flavourful. The beef and chicken are my favourites.Even a humble green gram curry tastes delicious….
The service is so homely and the Coffee is my absolute favourite. And love the fact that they’re open late, but make sure to give a call and check if they have injera , on weekend-nights/late nights.
Always going back here!!!
Lakshmi Nataraj - 4 months ago
Great dinner experience. Period.
It was quiet when I went, that should change as the weather warms up. Check out the meat and veggie platter (pic) which was done very well. No complaints on the many pieces of injera which complimented the dishes.
I'll say this, though...you know it's good when the owner is watching you enjoy every savoury mouthful with a smile. Not invasive, but kind and genuine!
Next time, I'll come earlier and do the coffee ceremony! Enjoyed this humble, small shop on The Danforth, with good parking and access to the subway. Come visit them now!

We walked in with friends almost by chance — and it turned into a truly unforgettable experience. The atmosphere is warm, welcoming, and full of soul. You can feel the authenticity and heart of Ethiopian culture here.
The food was absolutely delicious, but the highlight was the coffee. I thought I knew what good coffee was… but honestly, before this moment, I had never really tasted coffee.
They performed a traditional Ethiopian coffee ceremony for us. The beans were roasted right in front of us — fragrant smoke rising from the pan, filling the air with the most rich, earthy aroma. It was mesmerizing. Then they brewed this magical elixir from the freshly roasted beans and served it in a beautiful clay pot. The coffee was poured into tiny cups — deep, smooth, incredibly flavorful. It almost makes you lose your words.
The ceremony was accompanied by burning incense, which made the whole experience feel sacred and special.
This is not just a restaurant — it’s an experience. We will absolutely be back.

Lucy is a quaint little place to enjoy some heartwarming Ethiopian food, the meat and veggie platter is a good way to enjoy all the flavours with Injera. Also their chicken witb injeta is also delicious! They have limited staff so there might be a small delay, but a little consideration will get you a homely meal and homely warm service
