It wasn't too busy at all and we were well taken care. A solid spot where you can dine-out and still get great options to eat healthy too. My friend ordered the fattoush salad with added chicken and I had the Kefta dinner. While my food was great, I wish had more veggies than rice so I think next time I'll ask to sub for veggies or order the salad with added protein instead. I was way too full from lunch so we didn't order any apps this time but I remember their dips and apps being quite good.

We ordered the truffle mushroom risotto, butter chickpea curry, and spicy buffalo cauliflower wings. My favourite was probably the curry. It had good flavour, the pita was nice and crispy and even tasted great on its own. Spicy buffalo wings were the next one but I found them a little salty. Risotto was disappointing (maybe I'm just picky with my risotto) but I didn't really taste the mushroom that much. The interior was spacious and had cool paintings on the wall. Service could be better.

Visited Community for the first time for lunch today. The service was slow despite the restaurant…read morebeing quite empty, and it took an extremely long time for the server to come take our order (despite our attempts to flag them down). We ordered the green goddess salad and the bang bang broccoli bowl. The green goddess portion was quite small for the price you pay, but was still a nice healthy meal. We tried ordering the bang bang broccoli with brown rice but disappointingly, they had run out. The broccoli was charred nicely and the sauce wasn't too heavy, and overall was a really delicious bowl (definitely recommend getting this!) We were surprised to find an automatically added 15% gratuity to our bill at the end of our meal, despite there being just the two of us - so something to keep in mind when choosing to dine here (unsure if this would also apply for take out orders).

We're not strict veg, we just like to lean that way most nights so we thought we'd check Bellona out. A lot of their menu has a choice between tapas size and full size so we tried a few things. Loved everything. The sliders were addictive. Attached is our bill. $99 including a bottle of wine and we were stuffed (and I'm 6'4" and have an appetite). Desserts looked good too but we were too full. The very nice owner chatted with us at the end and told us about the origin of the place (and that our great server was her daughter). Definitely very happy with this restaurant.

Unfortunately, we were 20-25mins late. I knew they only allowed a 15min window. We arrived and I did tell them if they still couldn't fit us in, then I understood. Long story short, they told us to wait 5-10mins and if the next reservation didn't show up, they could seat us. Luckily, we got seated. The staff was nice, the place is cozy and had good vibes. The food was good. The chocolate red wine cake for dessert was really good. I recommend this place.

Also ordered a pizza with olives, sun dried tomatoes, artichokes, and a good amount of arugula. The crust was thin without being floppy, the toppings were quite salty, good if you like salty olives.

Finally, I visited for the first time. I had perused the menu extensively, as part of a quest to find an Etobicoke restaurant suitable for my Mother's upcoming Birthday Celebration. They had so many, appealing Italian and Italian-Canadian options, with pasta, veal, steak and seafood selections. My Mother wanted to check it out before committing to a family gathering, hence our recent visit. The restaurant is airy and spacious, with pleasant and elegantly simple decor. Its vibe is upscale casual. We were greeted and seated right away, and our delightful server offered us beverages and answered our questions about the menu. She was, throughout the meal, really excellent: charming, with a good knowledge of the menu and thoughtful recommendations. We started with some cheesy garlic bread, which was very enjoyable: a good artisan bread with plenty of garlic and melted cheese. They clearly had heeded our request for extra garlic. The stuffed pastas had been enthusiastically recommended by both the menu and the staff, so my Mother and I went for that. She had the Veal-Stuffed Ravioli, with pesto rather than rose sauce. I had the Manicotti Gratinato stuffed with ricotta, with a rose sauce. My daughter ordered the Gnocci with Pesto Sauce. All three choices were excellent, and I can highly recommend the pastas at La Veranda. Although we were feeling quite satisfied, we couldn't resist the European desserts. We shared house-made Tiramisu and the Italian, imported Hazelnut torte. They were both excellent. The Tiramisu was light and flavorful, and the Hazelnut torte was bursting with hazelnut flavor. The desserts were not too sweet, which is how we happen to prefer them. In short, everything was to our satisfaction, and more!! The prices were not to bad either. My Mother felt that this would be a great location for her birthday gathering, so we made the booking then and there. Evidently, we were not the only ones thinking along these lines, as it took a while to find a Saturday night which was not already booked up by large parties. If you want to book at La Veranda for a larger gathering, best to do it well in advance. We finally settled on an evening about a month away from the date of our visit. La Veranda is a wonderful place to gather and dine, from couples to larger parties. The washrooms are beautiful, the service is gracious and knowledgeable, and there is plenty of parking across the street at Royal York station. It is accessible to disabled diners as well. With excellent food, great service and amenities, La Veranda is worth consideration if you are in Toronto's West End.
