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.

Had brunch here close to 10 times now. Have tried several different dishes and they all very good. The quality of food was consistent, considering We have ordered the fry up at least 5 times.

I’ve been coming to this neighbourhood spot for years now, and it honestly never disappoints. It’s just such a reliable place on the Danforth when you want a solid meal without any fuss. The vibe is always welcoming. If you go, just get the Morgans Burger or the southern fried chicken!! it's consistently one of the best I've had in the city. Just real, honest food done right.

Had one of the best meals here last night. The brussel sprouts in particular were absolutely incredible. The service was also impeccable. Can't say enough how much having such a good meal meant to me and my partner. Truly food that fed the soul. Thank you so much. Can't wait to come back.

I enjoyed this place. I thought the food was really good, I had the special which was curried chicken great flavour and just the right amount of heat. My wife had the fried chicken (come hungry)I got to eat 1/3 which was awesome as fried chicken is something I never order. It was really good, chicken was moist and the batter wasn't a salt bomb it had like a Thanksgiving stuffing vibe. This dish was recommended by the bartender. The fries were also very good. The only thing on that dish I didn't like was the slaw to acidic. But I wasn't really going to eat that anyway. The one thing I will mention is service is a little confusing all of the servers came to the table to take orders. All were were kind and attentive it just felt a little confusing. I think server sections might work better. All and I would recommend.

Food was good. Service was even better. We nearly walked right on by because the food pictured on the sign wasn't especially appealing (note to owner: considering changing your sign and getting new photos). But we were crunched for time so we went with it and glad we did. The staff were all absolutely lovely. And the food was all very good. Not the best I've ever eaten, but good flavors and solid for the price. Eating at the tables on the sidewalk was an added bonus on a beautiful summer evening.

Excellent brunch spot! The service was amazing and I got to meet the owner and hear her story how she established the cafe. I ordered the foul which had a amaaazinng homemade hot sauce with it! Such a convenient location to grab coffee before hopping onto the subway. Will definitely return!

Love the food here !! The restaurant is beautiful with authentic Thai decor with clean comforting environment. All dishes were packed with wok hei and flavorful Everything came out hot, big and beautifully presented. You can really tell a lot of heart goes into both the presentation and flavours on every dishes. The flavours tasted authentic. We ordered the Thai milk tea to starts, it was really good. Rich, creamy, and perfectly balanced with that classic fragrant and ends with the mango sticky rice, it’s a very fulfilling meal. Service was friendly, attentive, and efficient throughout the meal. The prices, quality, portion sizes and service are perfect 💯our experience was truly enjoyable !

Had Sala Modern Thai Kitchen again for the first time since before the pandemic, and it was a solid, reliable takeout option. A friend recently ordered it for a small get-together, and it worked really well as a quick, local choice. We had the spring rolls, Chicken Green Curry, and Chicken Chef Mo Pad Thai. Everything tasted just as consistent as I remembered. Flavours were balanced, portions were good, and it held up well as takeout. It’s not necessarily my go-to when I’m specifically craving Thai food, but for convenience and consistency, it delivers. Definitely something I’d have again in a similar setting.

Sala Thai Kitchen is truly a gem! I recently took my husband there for a dinner date, and the entire experience was wonderful from start to finish. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making it the perfect place for a cozy evening out. The food was absolutely delicious—every dish was full of authentic Thai flavors and beautifully presented. You can really tell that a lot of care goes into their cooking. The service was also exceptional; the staff were friendly, attentive, and made us feel very welcome throughout the evening. We especially loved the desserts and the Thai tea, which were the perfect way to end our meal. Everything we tried was amazing, and it made our dinner date feel extra special. If you’re looking for a place with fantastic food, great service, and a lovely ambiance, I highly recommend Sala Thai Kitchen. We will definitely be coming back! 😊

Their Sala Pad Thai with shrimp ($24) is what keeps me coming back. Diners can choose between glass or rice noodles, and I always opt for rice - the flatter shape clings better to the sauce and minced peanuts. The noodles are cooked just right, retaining a pleasant chew, and coated in just enough of that sweet, sour, and savoury tamarind sauce to flavour the dish without drowning it. The wok hay still shines through. True to form, it arrives wrapped in a delicate lattice egg crepe, which is not essential for flavour, but undeniably pretty and giving the dish a regal finish. On a previous visit, I made the mistake of ordering dishes too spicy. This time, the server seemed to instinctively know better and brought the khao pad tom yum with chicken ($21) at a medium spice level. The fried rice was a full-on flavour bomb: punchy tom yum paste layered with aromatic onions, peppers, and fresh herbs. And the aroma? Absolutely intoxicating. I’d highly recommend splurging a little and ordering from the “premium beef” section. The khaw waan beef green curry ($27.50) uses “finger beef,” a well-marbled cut carved from between rib bones. The result is deeply flavourful, incredibly tender meat with a luscious gelatinous ribbon of cartilage that adds richness. Green curry can often become too sweet or heavy on coconut, but Sala strikes the balance beautifully. It’s creamy without being nauseating, with bold curry flavours still front and centre. The sauce is excellent spooned over the cone of steamed rice and soaking into the tender eggplant scattered throughout. Since my first visit, portion sizes have noticeably increased… we left with a doggy bag of leftovers. Everything arrives well-seasoned on its own, but for those who like to tweak, Sala offers a set of “flavour boosters” so you can dial up the salty, sweet, sour, or spicy elements. Personally, I didn’t touch them and found the food didn’t need any extra help.

Amazing service!! The servers were incredibly kind 💜 The food was also very tasty, and the portion sizes were very generous 👍🏼 We will definitely be coming back again 😍 By the time we finished our dishes, we were all extremely full and even had to take some leftovers home. They were also kind enough to keep our birthday cake for us and even offered a complimentary birthday dessert on the house 💜 Such a lovely experience!

Took my family here for our first try at Ethiopian food. First off, the restaurant is quite lovely with the decor, artistically painted walls and ambiance, felt very authentic. The service was friendly and fast and our food came as ordered. We got a platter for 2, chicken tibs and quanta fifir. I'm a big protein lover so the quanta fifir was my favourite. The food tasted great and the service was quick and friendly. I wasn't a huge fan of the injera bread but my wife and kids enjoyed it. The food tasted fresh and the portion sizes were quite generous. The coffee was top notch.
Anthony Singh - a month ago

The food was ok. Not particularly memorable but in terms of authenticity I can’t judge that as I am no expert. Personally not a fan the injera being served cold. The service was pretty slow as there was only one person attending the entire place. It’s pretty spicy so make sure you choose wisely if you have low tolerance.
Shayan Givehchian - 5 months ago

We were a group of four, including one vegan. For a Saturday night, the service was excellent and the atmosphere was lively. Our food arrived within a reasonable time and everything was delicious. We ordered the chicken and lamb platter for two, which was easily enough for three people, especially since they continuously serve fresh injera. The injera was perfectly made — soft, not too thick, and thankfully not ice cold. Each curry had its own distinct flavour. My favourites were the chicken and mixed beans dishes. They were spicy, but absolutely delicious. The lamb was tender and mild in spice. Our vegan friend ordered the vegetarian platter for one and thoroughly enjoyed it as well. We didn’t have time to try the coffee ceremony, so we’ll definitely be back!
Priya Ladwa - a month ago

Loved the food at Lalibela Ethiopian Restaurant—the platter for two is generous enough to comfortably share among three people. I ordered the veggie platter and added doro wat and tibs; there was plenty to eat and share, and the flavors were outstanding. The veggie platter is an absolute must-try. It's light and low on spices, which is why you can always add on with a doro. Just that the service was a bit delayed but worth the wait.

I dont usually eat Ethiopian food but my friend and I decided fo try. We ordered lamb and ground beef cooked medium. It was delicious, super flavourful. The lamb had a lemon flavour and the beef was a bit spicy. Both super good with injera. We asked the waitress for help in ordering and she was friendly and helpful. The restaurant was packed so that was a good sign. The only thing that threw me off was the smoke. I think some people did shish and I didnt know that was okay in the restaurant. Overall, food was great.
Ally MZ - 3 months ago

I come here every time I visit Toronto because I really love the food—it’s always delicious. However, the service could be improved. The waitresses sometimes seem more focused on their friends than on the customers.
Nati Gebreyohanes - 3 months ago

Great place. Had the platter with Beef strips. All tasted great and they even had Gluten free ingera (made from Teff flour). Not spicy, could have been a little more bit. The meat strips had great taste but were really not a good cut of meet. Tons of fat and tendons because some prices I couldn’t even tear apart. The coffee tastes good and it was strong. Overall good place. It’s small but cozy.

Sora Restaurant is fantastic! The food was excellent—especially the kutfu, which I 100% recommend trying. Every bite was delicious. Our server, Messi was amazing! She was so kind, friendly, and attentive, making the experience even better.We had a wonderful time and can’t wait to go back. Highly recommend!

Sora 🛎️ Restaurant 🛎️ make you feel you are still with your own family home in Ethiopia. 🛎️ The traditional food is so testy that you will order for more while you are still eating what you were served before. I went to Sora with my good friend last Sunday and we enjoyed 'kittfo' and 'kikil'. It was my very first time but loved it instantly. The test of the food has no comparison. On weekend it's a bit busy due to its popularity. So you need to ARRIVE at the restaurant a bit earlier to avoid disappointment. All are welcome; Singles, Married, Friends, Families with Children and people with wheelchair. The overall atmosphere was great. You will be served with first-class genuine Ethiopian home cooked food with its original authentic aroma and test. Above all, the owner & manager of the restaurant himself is physically at the spot making sure that all customers are well looked after and treated with outmost respect from start to finish. My over experience was great and thank you for your excellent customer service and food.

I made a reservation for my family to celebrate my daughter's 19th birthday. I had noted this when I made the online reservation but forgot by the time we went. It was a Friday so the restaurant was quite busy and service was expectedly a little slow but that’s the only remotely negative comment I could make. Think of having a leisurely evening out where you’re not rushed to free up a table. We ordered two veggie platters and the lamb key wot with potatoes. The food was delicious, filling and very reasonably priced! They keep brining more injera when you need it. The staff are lovely and sweet. When we asked for the bill the waitress leaned in to discreetly ask if it was okay if my daughter had champagne. I said yes. Soon after we heard the background music switch to a birthday song and a waitress came out with a beautiful tray carrying a champagne bottle, a champagne flute, four other cups, and a candle tea light. It was so pretty and unexpected. They did not charge us for the champagne. The food was delicious, ambience warm, and the staff are lovely! This is hands down the best Ethiopian restaurant in Toronto and they made my daughter feel special on her birthday. I highly recommend!

The atmosphere was amazing! The ambiance brings you out of the city and into Africa with Drum tables, African live singers and DJ, Beautiful people. It’s a clean and happy place. They stay open late, full bar, parking was easy. The service was lovely, fast and friendly thank you Ruth🥰. The coffee ceremony appeals to all your senses before the first sip, as the presentation was spectacular and a must with every meal even late at night. It’s definitely the true traditional Ethiopian way. The roasted beans 🫘 smells the environment, the smoke takes you to the dream land where you land in Africa and sip your coffee and eat your popcorn as they do back home. The food bursts with flavours you want to enjoy every moment, every bite with your hands you delightfully pinch 🤏🏾, giggle with glee and hmmmm savour. What a delicious experience. The food is halal. I had the veggie platter. It exploded 💥 flavours in my mouth which only drips 💧 now with the thought of it…Absolutely delicious. My first experience of Ethiopian cuisine. A definite must have. I will try the meat next time! I will explore the whole menu. I forgot there was no meat in it. It was so good and huge servings so bring a friend and share a dish or 3. Bon appetite 💖

This is my first time having Ethiopian/Eritrean food and Im so glad I picked this place to try it. I love the restaurant environment itself, they put so much thought into it. They light some kind of incense or bakhoor and its so beautiful. Its not too heavy or strong. I love the booth seats. I love that they have a drink menu. The whole place is filled with art. The food was out of this world, it was such an experience. I had the vegetarian platter (yetsom beyaynetu). The menu itself taught me a lot about the culture and food leaving me curious to know more. All of the wots (stews) were so different from each-other and nutritious. It was packed with protein and fiber, gut healthy and plant-based. I loved the lentil stews, the greens. I did not leave the restaurant feeling heavy, guilty. I felt great. I have a hard time finding food options that are vegetarian and this was a huge win. Eating here is an experience. The beautiful ladies here are so unbelievably kind. I loved the food so much I had to take some home to my parents who are picky and don't stray outside their comfort zone and was delighted to find out they enjoyed it! This was worth coming from Mississauga for and theres a green P right around the corner. Id like to try their meat stews next time. Im unsure if they have this item on their menu but Id love to try ayib (Ethiopian farmers cheese) some time. 10/10 would recommend to all.

A friend and I visited Rendez Vous for dinner! We ordered the Solo meat & Solo veggie combos to share. This was more than enough food for the two of us and we took a bit of left overs home. Service was great as our server was very kind and polite. The atmosphere was very nice and authentic. I would definitely recommend this restaurant for folks wanting to try great Habesha food!

Been wanting to try Ethiopian food for a while, and I’d highly recommend this place. I tried both the Veggie Combo and the Doro Wot, each came with two large injera, and the food was absolutely delicious.

Visited The Wren to get some takeout and the place was busy! Staff were polite and managing the crowds really well. Ordered the Bangkok burger and the spicy chicken burger, as well as their cowboy croquettes. The burgers were spectacular, and the fries they came with were some of the best in the city. Croquettes were decent. Overall, a very delicious meal!

This place!! Food = 10/10. Loved the fish tacos, and everyone enjoyed their meals. They were also great with our kiddo and had a perfect meal option for him (he gobbled down the hamburger!). It does get busy but we went early enough to nab a table before the wait set in. Would go back for sure.

It was a lovely sunny Sunday afternoon. A little too chilly for the patio, but happy to eat in at this local spot. The food is always good, the drinks are flowing and service is top notch. Specials change regularly and everything we had was delish.
Anne - 2 months ago

Bee following these guys on Insta for a while now. Liked almost every pic. Don’t be fooled that you can get all these, as they change it up with an inventive special, daily. We got the po-boy special and the burger and both lived up to my pictures expectations. One way to know in advance? If a restaurant neither takes reservations or delivers, it must be good.

Awesome place to grab delicious food and great selection of beer. I got the Americano Mixto Sando sandwich & fries, it was incredibly delicious and a huge sandwich which I couldn't finish. I got the Slake long sleeves beer (light and refreshing). My husband got the Chimichurri steak & fries with Muddy York Gaslight Helles Lager. Definitely coming back again. Staff are very friendly:)

If you are looking for a quiet and quaint place to gather with friends on the Danforth, and Injera bread is your vibe. This is the place for you. 2 friends and I came together for our friends birthday. The Doro Wot pictured here was mouth watering. It had the perfect taste and flavour. The server was so kind to suggest a plate, and check in on us regularly. Parking at the green P is really close by. For someone who lives outside of the city, dinner here was worth the trek. If you live in the city, Greenwood station is around the corner. They’ve got a good supply of non-alchoholic and alchoholic beverages. I’ll be back, and I’m bringing the whole party with me!

Wazema absolutely blew me away! The food was soooo good ..every single dish was packed with incredible flavor. I tried the veg platter, the beef tartare, and the doro wot, and honestly, each one was unforgettable. The service was just as amazing: everyone was so kind, warm, and welcoming. I’m still thinking about my meal, and I seriously can’t wait to go back. If you haven’t tried Wazema yet, don’t think!! Just head there

Had such a great time at Wazema Ethiopian Restaurant! The place has a really nice, cozy vibe — warm lighting, beautiful decor, and that comforting aroma of spices as soon as you walk in. The veggie platter was my favourite — everything was fresh, flavourful, and perfectly spiced. The injera was soft and soaked up all the goodness from the lentils, greens, and stews. I also tried a few other dishes, and honestly, every bite was delicious. The staff were super friendly and made the whole experience even better — they took time to explain the dishes and made sure we had everything we needed. Such a lovely spot for authentic Ethiopian food in Toronto. Can’t wait to go back!

​Wazema is a highly-rated, family-run restaurant on the Danforth known for serving authentic, richly spiced Ethiopian cuisine, particularly famous for its generous platters and late-night atmosphere. ​Highlights: ​The Food: The menu is extensive, offering excellent options for both meat-eaters and vegans/vegetarians. Dishes are served on large sheets of injera (sourdough flatbread) for communal, hand-fed dining. ​Must-Try Dishes: The Wazema Platter (combining various meats and veggies) and the Veggie Delight (which features flavorful stews like misir wot and gomen wot) are the most popular choices for sharing. The Kitfo (finely chopped raw or lightly cooked beef) is also highly praised. ​The Vibe: The restaurant often transitions into a more "club-like" atmosphere in the evening, sometimes featuring live music or dancing, making it a great spot for a vibrant and social dining experience. ​Tip: If you prefer a quieter meal, visiting earlier in the day is recommended. They are also well-known for their delicious Ethiopian coffee ceremony on certain evenings.
