THE BEST ONE! This is definitely the best bar in Toronto. There you will find different atmospheres depending the floor you are in this big old house. You can dance, play games, or just chill around this university environment. My favorite is the piano man that starts playing at 10:30 PM. What a wonderful place!!!

Yesterday I hosted a small group and Zak took care of us. He was kind and efficient as he gave everyone a number so they could pay their tab. I really appreciate him and the booking staff who helped me make this event possible. A few of us stayed after for dinner and we were all satisfied. We ordered fish & chips, salmon, Mac & cheese, and crispy chicken sandwich. All were tasty. I had a great first impression here. Thank you

This place is awesome. The staff here are some of the most welcoming and lovely people I’ve ever met. When you go to check it out be sure to TIP YOUR SERVERS! Doesn’t matter if you get one drink or a meal for the fam. They work much harder than you think so YOU can enjoy your time there.

Absolutely quaint interior and cozy. Owner is very friendly. Lot of beautiful details to look at within the restaurant. I ordered the tiramisu which is probably one of the best I've had ($16). The orange chocolate cake was okay, the orange flavor was a little too strong. But the cake itself was constructed to perfection.

Very authentic place run by the most wondeful family. First time I walked in I felt like I came home. This is a place the locals love and they love the locals. They hug their regular guests and get to know their new ones, right away. The food is absolutely incredible with a cellar to match. I cannot describe in words how impressed and pleased I was and that's why I went there twice in the three days I was in Toronto. Visit Joey and his family and see for yourself.

I rarely use words like this in a review but this is the best pizza I have ever had. The sourdough crust makes for a phenomenal platform for the delivery of quality ingredients. We were only there for 5 days but managed to eat here 3 times - which I never do when in a new city. I have had quality pizza all over the world but this is my favorite! The pasta dishes we experienced were also superb! I can’t recommend highly enough. Some very nice wines also!

Huge shoutout to the staff here for seating an impromptu table of 9, we really appreciated it.
The food was SO GOOD. And there were so many amazing options on the menu it was really hard to choose what to have. Definitely somewhere that we’ll have to return to as I’ve got a solid list of what I want to try next.
Service was efficient and timely, and the restaurant had a chill vibe. Such a great lunch spot, highly recommend.

Loved my experience at fresh! The atmosphere is so warm and welcoming. The hot chocolate off the winter warmer menu had just the right amount of sweetness and was definetly a highlight. The Cobb salad with extra chicken was so refreshing and I loved the Dutch fries! Can’t wait to come back and try the juices and burgers.

Met a dear, old friend here for a long overdue catch-up. Monday nights are a great night to come because it is less busy and a bit quieter than during some of the busier times when there is a lot of traffic and energy, and a bit more volume, which is also fun (I come here a lot). I had a salad, The Botanist, and my friend had one of the bowls, The Green Goddess. The food here is so nutrient-packed and delicious, and instead of feeling full and regretful after a meal, you feel like you’ve done your body an excellent and delicious favour. As well, I highly recommend this location in particular. If you get a window seat, it’s great for people watching, and is steps from the Spadina subway stop. This is one of the original locations as well, so it’s a little smaller and more intimate than some of the newer and larger locations. No matter where you go, this menu is perfect for health-conscious foodies.

I normally love the Goddess bowl but this time was super lacklustre. The soba noodles were clumpy and came together in chunks, the bowl seemed to be missing components, there was only a tiny portion of greens/bok choy, and the broccoli was raw. Very disappointed at the lack of consistency.

I have been going to Kenzo Ramen for several years now. The quality of the food and service has been remarkably consistent.
On my most recent visit, I had the King Shoyu ramen, packed with extra noodles and pork. The flavours were excellent, although the soup and toppings were lukewarm and closer to room temperature as I was finishing the bowl. The large serving size justified the price.
Service was friendly and quick. The restaurant has tasteful design choices and comfortable bench seating and was not crowded at the time of my visit.

Great place to grab Japanese food especially Ramen. We ordered some Tonkatsu Ramen, Donburi Tonkatsu, Gyoza and Takoyakis. Everything was really good and so was the service.

After our favourite ramen spot closed this year, we're so glad to have come across this shoppe!
The food was flavourful and very satisfying, and the portions were generous.
The staff is very pleasant, and were very mindful of our allergies.
The atmosphere is really cozy and relaxed, too. (We could have sat there longer to relax!)
Hope your experience here will be as good as ours was...

Got a large chicken burrito. While the quality of ingredients was good, everything seemed to lack flavour. The burrito could have used a larger quantity of each topping. For the price, can definitely find better burritos in the city.
Ben Bergman - a month ago
I’ve had delicious burritos from here before but in terms of consistency it’s all over the place. Sometimes your burrito will be beautifully wrapped and delicious, other times it’ll be messy, bland, and not properly wrapped. Sometimes you’ll get your food 5 minutes after ordering, other times it’ll take upwards of 25 minutes in spite of being one of two people in the joint. I really want to like this place but I don’t like playing a guessing game every time I decide to come here about what level of quality the food and service will be at
Rayan Rahal - 4 months ago
Excellent service, delicious burritos. Fresh ingredients, good options and menu and for great pricing. The small is pretty big and I had the bean and cheese. I love that they have sweet peppers as a topping...tastes great. Looking forward to trying their new tofu burrito.
The ladies working were pleasant even though I got there close to closing.
I'll be back!

Flavorful and great price. Ordered through Door dash and arrived very fast, they clearly use fresh ingredients and respected my opting out of spicy condiments. The quesadilla is amazing, even for reheating.

We’ve been coming here for years and it’s always been a great place to get some wings.
I usually get the hot honey garlic wings or the garlic parmesan wings.
This time the family decided to change it up a little. They also got the poutine and the fish and chips. While they liked it, they mentioned they should’ve just stuck to wings.
We had excellent service and would definitely come back again. The kids menu id also great value.

Came here with a buddy of mine, one of the best experiences I’ve had at a St. Louis. They had a deal on for All You Can Eat Boneless Wings for 20.99. Bud Light Devils size for 6.99. Amazing deals and prices for a nice little atmosphere. Staff were very attentive to drinks and orders and always checked up on us. Multiple TV’s around the bar and a great atmosphere when a Toronto team is playing. Wings were delicious and beers were nice and cold. I would recommend this place for drinks after work and on weekends!

Everything is always so good here. Tried the lemon blueberry scone for the first time and it's a melt in your mouth delish. It's now my favourite item at Cobs. A must-try if you like scones. Just a heads up: with restrictions right now, only 2 customers allowed in at a time.
Joanne C - 3 years ago
Liked the bread and the varieties they have at this place. We joined the cobs club rewards and got 6 free gourmet buns. Their other breads are pretty great too. I liked the sourdough. Quick service and the place smells like fresh bread which is nice. I will come back again for some bread and like it that they have other locations.

The vegan wild Blueberry & Custard Teatime is just delicious!
Plus, a lot of the bread here is vegan friendly.
You can ask for the nutritional information sheet for all the items. (I loved it).
It's our main bakery now. ❤️✨
Yan Dan - a year ago
I have been coming here now for three weeks. The staff here (haven’t found an exception yet) is so rude, unfriendly and unhelpful. Also a bakery that doesn’t have their bread ready at 8:30AM?! Please take a look at your other store for example on bayview.

Tried lunch here today for the first time. The servers (& manager) were notably friendly, attentive, and helpful. It’s not a big restaurant, but they made every effort to accommodate our large group (7) as quickly as possible. When one of our kids couldn’t find anything they liked on the menu (we thought it’d be brunch but that’s only on weekends), the kitchen kindly made up some French toast, which the little one described as “the best [they’d]ever had!” I ordered the Eggs Charlottine; it was delicious (especially the dill sauce) and also in the category of best I’ve ever had. The home fries were seasoned (a more Mediterranean flavour?) so they tasted different from what I expected, but I enjoyed them. They were out of smoothies so I would love to try one next time. Overall the food was delicious and the service great. I’ll be back.

I was looking for a nice dinner place for a celebratory dinner, that has so e vegetarian and vegan options for me as well. I saw this place and its great reviews. But was terribly disappointed last night after my meal. I basically felt that being a vegan, I only need to eat raw food. Ugh.
My friends liked their chicken and fish, not so much the lamb and beef. And I hated their “vegan special”! It said it has “vegan balls with cucumber, carrot, astec rice and tofu with sauce”. When I got my food, there were some chopped veggies, lot of quinoa and rice and some tofu. NO VEGAN BALL as mentioned in their “dinner special” menu.
When asked about it, all I received was “sorry, the menu meant to say ‘bowl’ and not ‘ball’. And then the server left. So I basically paid $30 for raw veggies and rice. Are you kidding me?!
I paid a bomb here, and all my money was basically wasted. Not going here again for sure. Vegetarian/vegan food is abysmal here!
I gave two stars because the server was sweet in general. But I’m definitely quite sad about the food being wayyyy sub par for vegetarians.

My fiance and I picked this spot at the last minute and to zero regret at that. We were immediately greeted warmly and seated by staff to our own choosing. Our server Dahlia, was phenomenal as she promptly accommodated our choice to sit beside each other instead of across even turning the table lengthwise to give us more space. The food was amazing, and the drinks were even better and at a very fair price. Would definitely recommend.

Came here for trivia night and it was not very good - kind of poorly organized and really bad questions. Having said that, the drinks are cheaper than most places in the city nowadays and the pizza was actually REALLY good.
In my opinion, come for the pizza and cheap drinks, but skip the trivia.

Disgusting cocktails! My strawberry cocktail tasted like cough syrup. However, the food was decent. Our poutine and sweet potato fries were filling and had no major faults.
Service was also excellent and our server did her best to serve our large group the whole night.

Good vibes + tasty ‘zza is always a good idea! I had a fabulous time at East of Brunswick this past weekend. The ambiance was great; I love that they have live music on certain nights + the manager Andrew was an absolute pleasure! He was very attentive & gave great suggestions. As for the food, the pizza was REALLY good!!!! I tried three different pies, the Quattro fromaggi was delicious and I loved the Ring of Fire 🌶🔥. + I love that they offer a few of their hand-crafted cocktails in pitchers, we really enjoyed the Sparkling Mint Lemonade. I recommend East of Brunswick for their delicious ‘zza & amazing service. I’m already planning my next visit at EOB. 😍

We came to enjoy a Friday night in Toronto. We ordered the bacon caesars to start and they were absolutely delicious. The GM already came up to our table to kindly go over the menu with us and gave us his top picks. We had the epic mozzarella stick and the buffalo cauliflower bites to start. They came out on two boat looking trays. WOW these were excellent to start off. We highly recommend these as your apps. Then we ordered the peppereno and honkin' tonkin' chicken pizza's. Very delicious pizzas with so much flavour! Then for dessert we had the banana split! Not only was the food and drinks superb but the service was great and we really appreciated the kind GM coming to our table to chat with us about the restaurant!

This place is fantastic. I wanted the beef brisket curry and asked beforehand if it was "soft" and "not chewy," the gentleman, who is always super nice, went to the back to confirm and said it's "sort of soft", I took that gamble and it was super tasty and the perfect "soft" with no "chew."Highly recommend.
Me and my partner come here quite often for takeout and dine in and it's always consistent, tasty and has great service.
Oh yea, thanks for the surprise shrimp chips today 😀

I visited this restaurant around 6:30 pm on a Monday and was pleased to see it nearly full. This was my second visit, so I knew exactly what to order: the grilled pork and chicken chop. The food arrived promptly after about 10 minutes, which was fantastic. The staff were patient and attentive, and the meal, including a soft drink and tip, came to around $20. I highly recommend it to fellow Vietnamese food lovers!

Love their Vermicelli bowls and the house special tea, Flower Tea is not to be missed!
The owner is always sweet and welcoming to us - we are regulars and usually get a large table.

Cute little place on Bloor Street. Clean, friendly service and great place for a meal without breaking the bank.
We had the Vietnamese spring rolls which were tasty, Curry beef brisket with steamed rice which was delicious, and Vietnamese noodle soup with curry, raw beef and toufu which was very good, but was missing the curry taste. All in all a great place to dine, and experiment the different flavors of Vietnamese cuisine.
Clafton Fiola - 6 months ago
Underrated spot. The pho here has great flavour and probably one of the best bang for your bucks in the city. Got the pho special that was well prepared and came quick! The meat components of the soup taste hearty enough and not cheap like other spots in the city. Aside from the pho the spring rolls here are delicious and strongly recommended.
