Empanadas and pulled pork sandwiches. One of the tastiest cheapest quickest lunches in town
They have cakes and cake cups (cupcakes), with some Asian flavours. You need to pre-order - no walkins
Besides usual Vietnamese dishes, there's Chinese ones (sautéed rice, fried soft/crispy yellow egg noodles & non-"Thai" fried rice dishes) & cooked Vietnamese dishes for family-style dining
Notorious for having poor service but I found it functional. Good food & low prices! It's like having lunch special prices all day
They have Vietnamese pizza but their hours are super erratic and they're usually closed. Definitely call ahead
They make off-menu Cambodian food. Fish Amok is $15.99 for a small. You just need to pre-order a day in advance. They also say that they can make whatever Cambodian food you want if you pre-order
You need to call ahead to make a reservation, decide on your menu and make a deposit. They specialise in Eastern European food
If you're not here for an event, they open for dinner from mid September 2020 from Friday to Sunday, with live music.
Martabak manis (sweet pancake) on weekends but you must order by Friday since the dough needs to rise. There's no free parking nearby but you can get 2 hours of free parking with a coupon from them.
One of the city's very best. Complex, rich and flavourful curries. If you are feeling decadent, enjoy the Brie pakora with accompanying tamarind sauce. Can't miss samosas, bhaji or mutter palao either
Don't forget to try your hands on Gung pad pong curry and thai sweet roti which comes with Nutella and banana in the centre and condensed milk on top❤️the service is pretty amazing
Everything we had was amazing. We gorged out and ordered the Carne Asada, Red Snapper, Tajadas con Queso and Yuca frita. Their Mojito with Nicaraguan food is pretty good too. Great value! Hidden gem.
They sell 3 types of Hakka food: Indian Hakka, Cantonese Hakka & Hakka Hakka. I tried to find out what dishes were which type of Hakka but the staff were very unhelpful.
The food is a mix of Chinese flavors colliding with North American dishes like a mapo tofu poutine, fried chicken with Hong Kong-style egg waffles, and Brussels sprouts with black bean butter. Read more.
Beef boat noodles were good, with a variety of toppings; the beef balls were very bouncy. It was slightly spicy. The portion of noodles itself was small though.
This place does Italian Italian food. Yet the portions are big. The menu also has some interesting touches: it's not just generic Italian food. Service was good too.

This may be a chain, but the food is pretty good & the servings are big, so they're good value.
Breakfast buffet used to be $14.95. As of 22 Oct 2022 it's $21.99, 7-10:30am daily
Monday – $10 Burger + Fries w/purchase of a Beverage. Tuesday – $8 Wings (after 4pm). They have lunch specials too
Lobster roll not big but $19. A bit hard to eat: lobster not stuffed in. Quite a bit of lobster. Slight crisp to bread, quite plain: showcased lobster. Lobster itself fresh, light & simple dressing
East Asian fusion food; appropriately, portions are on the smaller side. Their name is a bilingual pun - hill in Mandarin & French. They have a very modern interior & there're USB charging slots too!
They have many concepts under one roof - kinda like the nearby Ghost Kitchens. Some of them are reasonably well known brands you'd find in Toronto, so if you live further north this can save some gas.
You get standard Canadian Chinese dishes here, with a few Thai options. Lunch special is super cheap - as little as $6.75. You can get a free upgrade to plain fried rice.
Italian style pizza place. Italian style pizza is not as common as American style & getting it by the slice is even rarer so this is a nice gem.
They have 6 pork dishes. It's rare to find an Indian place with 1 pork dish, let alone 6
Japanese with Korean inspiration and American fast food. Enoki mushrooms, fish, battered chicken sandwich. Make a reservation otherwise you will wait > 1 h. Last call 1:45!
Tasting menu is the way to go. Not too expensive and you get to experience the variety of the menu. Food is tasty and moves between authentic and playfully creative.
The food is home style Russian cuisine - taste wise it's not bad. a major downside is the staff, it honestly feels like they don't wanna be there...
When I told my German friend about this place, he tut-tuted and said Berlin doners need veal. They don't have that here, but it was still very good.
The waitresses all very good looking and provide great customer service. (**Please Note: All of the waitresses are all blonde)
Everything is great. Pastries are perfectly fresh and well portioned flavourings. The butter tart is to die for.
They have $7.99 lunch specials till 3pm - including on weekends. Prices are still the same as of Jan 2023
Large sugarcane juice was $6 including tax. It was quite big. It had no ice & was concentrated. This is the best sugarcane juice option I've found in the GTA.
Kanae is a Japanese-inspired pastry cafe, specialized in Japanese cream choux pastries, also known as cream puffs.
Very interesting concept to serve Eastern European food with a twist. Lovely place, nice backyard patio. I wish I had time to stay for a live music.
Might be the cheapest Korean fried chicken around - 3 pieces for $8.50 (Mar 2024). Only downside: free side of pickled radish: so so. It tasted like it was pickled in water & had a very light taste.
Great place to find Swedish Food's that are very hard to find in Vancouver, will return again next year.
On wing night (Tuesday), wings are $0.90/wing with a 7 wing minimum
AYCE Japanese style hotpot. Excellent all around. My personal favourite dipping sauce was the sesame.
Wed-Fri 11am-3pm lunch buffet at $14.95 including taxes & 1 pop/water. You can pay the same for a takeout box you can fill as you wish
It's getting mixed reviews but you know everyone will still go because this is Jen Agg and she's Toronto's resto-darling. Trinity Bellwoods' Rhum Corner delivers Haitian nostalgic food with a twist.
They are now a virtual restaurant inside Bo Plant Based Cuisine, so it's pickup/delivery only
Highly recommend the poutine, and checking out all the floors and rooms! They’re all individually themed and unique.
