Was a cold Sunday night so we thought we would pop in for some dinner and a drink. The food was excellent and the portions were quite fair. My partner got the beef dip, which is all I got a photo of, he said the au jus it came with was top notch. I got the hog town special, which was super tasty and the fires were excellent. The atmosphere and the decor is very “London” which is very cool and they have a lot of seating. It’s a very large bar and capable of hosting large parties. The only issue is the service kinda sucked. We sat at the bar and the women working was super nice but after she brought us our food she left for like 40+ minutes and the Uber Eats notification was going off for 20 minutes of it, the phone rang three times and like no one was around. I don’t know what this woman went to and I hope she is okay. She returned after about 40 minutes with a mop so maybe something held her up or something happened. We didn’t want to give her a hard time because who knows what happened - side work or an emergency. Want to be fair it really sucked having to listen to the Uber Eats ringing for the duration of our meal, it’s like really loud. Maybe that should be in the kitchen and not at the bar. Would come here again but wouldn’t sit at the bar.

I recently dined at the Firkin on Danforth, and I had a fantastic experience! The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making it the perfect spot for a cozy meal. The menu offered a good variety of delicious options, and everything we ordered was cooked to perfection. The service was attentive and friendly, adding to the overall positive experience. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great meal in the area.

I stopped by The Groove Bar and Grill recently and had a good experience. The food came out fresh, the drinks were good, and the staff were friendly and attentive. It has a relaxed atmosphere that's easy to enjoy whether you're meeting friends or just grabbing a bite. I'd happily come back again.

Cute bar and the bartender was running the bar and our server. Service seemed to be a bit slow but it wasn’t overly busy so I can see why they probably only had 1 cook and 1 person running customer service. Regardless the bartender was nice and friendly. They had interesting flavours for wings but I found it wasn’t as amazing as I had expected. The large nachos were good and the jalapeños were fresh. The only thing is I felt it could’ve used a bit more lettuce but there was more than enough beef.

Second visit was fantastic (July 23, 2025): had the hot and the gar par and it was an excellent combination. The wings are sauced and cooked perfectly. Once again Roberto is just the friendliest! My favourite wing spot in the city. Possibly the best wing sauces in the city. If you like hot and flavourful, this is the spot. They’ve got several options of hot (which are legitimately hot) and many other flavours. The prices are very reasonable and there’s a nice selection of drinks. Roberto, I believe was the bar man’s name, was extremely friendly and very nice explaining all the sauces and just chatting with us. Thursday night is open comic night so just keep that in mind if you go on a Thursday! The price total was high because we had 3 pints each, 2 lbs each, and split a large fries.

Great place for service, food and ambiance. Rob the bartender is super creative and very knowledgeable and cocktails and the menu . Everything is delicious and the drinks are delightful . Would definitely recommend visiting here. The Mediterranean Nachos are a creative and tasty twist on a Mexican favorite. Uts a MUST TRY!

I love this spot! Each bite is full of flavour. The colours make it super cute to. I love their drinks they have. You can get some frozen to go to! Perfect for a night in or a snack after the beach.

From when you walk in you’re greeted with a big smile and a warm and welcoming attitude. We got to try a new sample they were trying out of butter chicken but with cooked chicken and it was amazing! I ate them so fast I have no pictures but my top three are: 1. Beef pepperoni 2. Truffle mushroom 3. Jamaican beef patty The shell is crispy and the samosas are FULL of filling. So flavourful and still warm when you order it. I will definitely be back! Thank you!

We had Ash and team cater a big family party in our home. The food was top notch (we're still getting compliments), the service was great, and they worked closely with us to develop a menu that was exactly what we wanted. Oh, and our kitchen never looked nicer. Highly recommend!
Ben Wise - a year ago

Tastey samosas. I like the different types of flavours and that the prices are reasonable. 1.15$ / samosas you can get half a dozen or even a dozen of them
Alexis O'Brien - a month ago

Follow @bredgyeats on IG for more food posts! Tasting the rainbow! Savoury versions with these mini-sized and healthier samosas that contain a variety of Indian flavours that we all know and love. With less guilt but a decent amount of crisp.

Absolutely outstanding. Great great musicians. The food was absolutely great. Not a ton of choices but you didn't need it. The mixed platter was amazing and so were the mini desserts. It's a must to go to. One of my regular spots now.

I visited Hirut Cafe for the first time last Friday for a Comedy Night and was pleasantly surprised. It is a welcoming, friendly and cozy family owned business. The traditional Ethiopian dinner is home cooked and delicious. I look forward to returning in the near future for the Jazz nights they are well known for. Definitely worth checking out!
Dusty Reeves - 4 months ago

My family loves this place! Hirut has some of Toronto's top jazz musicians perform - they have a nice Yamaha piano and it's always a warm and friendly atmosphere. The staff are friendly and welcoming. We also bring our kids sometimes and they enjoy the live music too!
Carissa Neufeld - 6 months ago

Lovely place to listen to Jazz. I've heard some of the most skilled musicans in the city here. The menu is simple and understated, but wonderful.
Laura Wise - 4 months ago

Ethiopian restaurant with live jazz. Simple venue, fantastic food, house wine is great, and the hospitality is awesome. Went on a night that featured the Moment's Notice Quartet. Loved it. This is the place for slow food and good music.

Great spot close to East Lynn Park and the school up the hill. Many of students walk down the hill for their lunch break. 😊 Been going here for many years as we lived close by. Excellent pizza and fast service! Give them a try. 💚

Tonight I placed a delivery order. I ordered the Medium Special with 10 wings. OMG, the hot honey garlic wings were AMAZING! I think they were the best wings I’ve had in years. The pizza had pepperoni, bacon, mushrooms on half and hot Italian peppers on the other half. Nothing special BUT it too, was DELICIOUS. I highly recommend this location. They obviously take pride in delivering hot delicious food. The delivery person was friendly and the food was hot.
Ingrid Burke - a year ago

For the first ever time I felt like I found a place that uses actual fresh ingredients and not "machine-like industrial" pizza. The person who takes the order and manages the stock and also making sure we liked the pizza. Additionally, we absolutely LOVED meatballs that comes with beautiful garlic bread. Always coming back.. my toddler loves this place!

We always love the food here, get take out and rarely dine in. Today we dined in again with friend after a while, but every single time food and service is very good! Jyoti who served us today has been very kind and helpful. I appreciate the extra patience she gave to my kid. As always, enjoyed our meal and time here.

Stopped in for a Sunday lunch, and it was a perfect experience. I had the Chilli Chicken and it was delicious. My husband had the cashew chicken and loved it. We also had the spring rolls, which were hot and delicious. Great service, nice atmosphere, will definitely come again.
Martha Holmen - 7 months ago

We dropped in for lunch. The spring rolls were crisp and fresh. The pad thai was a bit sweet (par for the course in Toronto) but the noodles were firm and delightfully free of that nasty gluey tendency many pad thai noodles seem to acquire. The tofu in the pad thai was lovely and firm, while the shrimps were *not* overcooked. The green curry was delightfully flavourful with lots of chicken and a nice zing after. The rice was perfect, too. All in all a delightful meal; recommended.
Arthur McLean - a month ago

I really like the food here. It's my favourite Thai food in East York. The Pad Thai is great, the green curry and fried rice as well.
Monty Scott - 6 months ago

First time , small place . Very friendly and helpful staff. Tried the Thai Room special chicken and shrimp pad see ew . It was fast and very well cooked. Nice taste not too spicy . The vegetables were cooked well, the shrimp was the star of the dish . Also had the vegetable spring roll , it was fried perfectly and cooked evenly . No oily or cold spots in roll, their dipping sauce was perfect . Definitely recommend this place , portions are a good size . I will definitely go back .

Wanted to taste some yummy Chinese food from one of the local businesses and Google recommended them. Seeing 4.3 avg. rating encouraged us to try it out. No complaints about service, it was warm and friendly. However, the food was not. It's true that they give you a huge amount to fill your belly but if your tongue couldn't taste anything, what's the point of filling your belly? Mongolian Chicken with steamed rice had more cabbage to cover the whole thing (see picture). Even if that was tasty, I wouldn't complain. It was dripping with sauce and no taste. Sweet and Sour Pork usually is a safe bet, with chicken fried rice, it looked good but tasted nothing. The pork was full with sauce, and fried rice was hard as hell. Overall, not a good experience. Having less faith in these Google ratings lately. I guess most 5-star people went there to fill their belly with cheap offers rather than taste something good at a reasonable price. No hard feelings to the owners, they were good, just not the food we paid for.
John D'Costa - 3 years ago

Great portions at great prices. Really good fried chicken wings that came with the take out order after hitting the minimum. Everything was very tasty except the sweet and sour pork. It's my favorite dish, but it was very disappointing. Tasted like orange chicken which was weird, would not recommend this dish. Would recommend and come back to try other dishes.
Simon W - 3 years ago

The food is amazing! Great portions and the prices are reasonable. This is a family owned restaurant which has been in the community for years. My family and I have been coming here for years and I can honestly say they never disappoint. You have to check out this hidden gem!
Diane C. - 3 years ago

I do like this place. And I like to support. But I been here 40 min waiting for my order. So I dunno. It ain’t busy…45 min by the time I got my food. A few people came in and ordered and got food but it was pretty empty.

There isn't much or any Detroit style pizza spots in the east end of the city, but when we saw this place doing it, we had to check them out and boy were we glad! The owners have worked at various restaurants for the past 16 years including Detroit style pizza shops so you know you're getting the real deal here. We had the Niagara Supreme pizza which was loaded with toppings and quite flavorful and cheesy. We also got their penne pasta which was delicious, creamy, and a solid option if you're aren't feeling a pizza. We lastly got their honey garlic wings, big in size and packed a bunch of flavor! A staple spot in the community on Danforth, this is what the owners had to say "We love the area we are in and honestly cannot be more appreciative of the Danforth community. They have accepted us with open arms and have been very supportive of the business." Definitely a small family business that should be supported and one to try out without a doubt!

Solid take on Detroit style. Crispy crust and dough wasn’t overly dense. Loaded with cheese and toppings. Enjoyed the mushroom pizza the most. Had the mc boy too, but thought it could’ve been better without bell peppers and subbed hot peppers or jalapeños instead. They also have bogo wings on Monday and Tuesdays for $15 which is a solid deal. The wings were a decent size, crispy and seasoned well.

Delicious pizza! We tried the Niagara Supreme Detroit-style, and it was really good with fresh toppings. Definitely recommend this spot. Also, great service from Nandana she was so skilled and helped us figure out the best options
ajil mohan - a month ago

Wow is all we can say! The food is absolutely amazing & delicious. We will definitely be ordering again! We had the wings + Spaghetti + red velvet cake & funghi pizza.. We will definitely be ordering again! The customer service is just as amazing as their food!
Ray Dean - 7 months ago

Maaaaaaaaan this place does Detroit style pizza right. Got the McBoy and it was everything you'd want: generous toppings soaked in tasty sauce, bouncy focaccia-like crust that was wonderfully chewy, and edges that were properly crispy. If there's one thing I would have wanted more of, it's that beautiful cheese. Bonus points for being this good even if I got it via delivery.

This is. Without a doubt. Some of the best wings I've ever had. The wing flavors were all so delicious and actually spicy!!! And they have plenty to choose from. The fry flavors are all absolutely delicious and everything was reasonably priced. The owner was very friendly and super helpful and made this just an all around welcoming experience to Toronto! If you're in Toronto you MUST GO to this place! Thanks for making this a memorable trip and a memorable New Years Eve!
Chase E - 3 years ago

Very good wings ! Don't @me for this next statement, but gives Duff's a run for their money for a lot less cash ! Unbreaded wings are amazing, lemon pepper is on point ! Ordered multiple times and the portions are great and the folks that work their are super friendly! If you have been disappointed by places that you order 1lbs of wings that are weirdly oversized and you only get 5 wings then make the switch to these guys. Wings that are normal sized, delicious, well cooked and aren't greasy (or taste like they were boiled and fast fried) Great food, great job ! Try them out
Robert McLaughlin - 3 years ago

Ordered takeout on a Friday evening. Order was completed quickly, portions for wings were good but portions for the fries were even better! Sauce and coating on the wings was well done, however, the meat itself was quite dry. Might have been just the batch that day. Edit: forgot to add that the staff was very friendly!
Kevin Zhang - 4 years ago

I have to say I really like the wings. They are fresh and always taste good. I've eaten here a handful of times in the last 6 months. My reason for the lower rating is they are always, without fail, late. Each time I order online I set a time for pick up, and it has never been within 20 minutes of that time frame. I wait for my order in store and I can see it's not busy, there aren't people coming in and out. So it's not for the fact that they are over capacity. Sometimes they say they "didn't get my order until recently" but I get order confirmation right after I pay online so I find that hard to believe too. Again I really like their food, but each time I remember why I don't order here as often. I will gladly change my rating if I start experiencing better service.
David Ly - 3 years ago

Ordered via their online portal, and when we went to pick it up the store wasn't even opened. Tired calling an no pick up. Just looked at my credit card bill now and they still charged my order. Disappointing, as I've had good wings here before. Update: the new rating is based on how helpful they have been in getting me my refund back. Also I know they do make good wings. My only feedback is they need to pay more attention to their online platform so this never happens again. Also to make it clear that if something doesn't go right for their online ordering they should out reach to Doordash. It's no very clear right now and the number they have posted on their site and confirmation email doesn't really go anywhere.

I thoroughly enjoyed my visit with friends. We ordered the Rainbow Roll, Woodbine Roll, and Sushi Pizza, all of which were beautifully prepared and full of flavor. The staff were exceptionally friendly and attentive, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. 👍🏻 It was a delightful dining experience, and we left feeling both satisfied and relaxed.😉

Gyoko Sushi is one of those places we go to at least once a week — and for good reason. We absolutely love their sushi, especially the Dynamite Roll and Kamikaze Roll, which are always our favorites. Everything tastes fresh and consistently delicious. The atmosphere is very cozy and welcoming, and the service is always excellent — friendly, attentive, and genuinely warm. It truly feels like a local spot that you want to keep coming back to. Definitely one of our go-to sushi places and highly recommended!
Dilara Başaran - 6 months ago

The sushi was incredibly fresh and absolutely delicious. Our server, Hyunmin, served us on the patio with a warm smile even though he was very busy. Despite having to walk back and forth several times to take care of us outside, he remained friendly and attentive throughout our visit. The prices were very reasonable for the quality of the food. If the weather is nice, I highly recommend sitting on the patio!

I went to this restaurant on Tuesday evening. It wasn’t too busy, so I got a table right away without having to wait. The place looked nice and clean, with a cozy Japanese-style vibe. The staff were friendly and gave good service. For the appetizer, I ordered the gyoza. The flavor was good and served as a decent start to the meal. My main course was the chicken teriyaki bento, which was flavorful and well-prepared. The portion size was generous suitable for sharing between two people, assuming neither has a particularly large appetite. For my beverage, I selected what I believe to be the house blend of green tea, though I am unsure of the exact menu name. I thoroughly enjoyed the drink and found it refreshing. However, I would recommend that the restaurant consider offering a hot version as well, as I personally prefer hot green tea.
