The company has been in business since 1860 making matcha, hojicha/houjicha and other green teas, and you happen to have this tea and dessert spot here and in multiple cities. (I usually don't get Tsujiri's teas as I have my usuals in Yamamoto and Itou En, but because I see the bad Ohtani/Ootani way too often on the latter's displays as in the one on the Bums obviously, Shouhei [with the good one being Ikue-san who for us non-Japanese residents mostly know her as the voice actress of "Pokemon's" Pikachu], I may have to start getting Tsujiri's more often and Itou En's less often for matcha and houjicha. [I intentionally add the "-san" honorific to the good Ohtani and drop it to the bad Ohtani.] Yes Toronto and Canada, I too wanted the bad Ohtani to go to the Jays, not the Bums, and if you have always wondered why the Dodgers are called that, when the Trolley Dodgers [people dodged incoming trolleys to get to work] and the Giants were still in New York City's Brooklyn and Manhattan respectively until 1958, "New York World-Telegram" cartoonist Willard Mullin back in the day called them that as they didn't win their first and only east coast title until 1955, though the fortunes are the total opposite since they moved out west to Los Angeles and San Francisco.) Just like what I did with my Jirou review, I'll in a bit point out what items I see here that are not in my local cafes and vice versa. This will be a good reference section for me should I have the power to return to the city, and it will also give both you Canadians that haven't visited any of their multiple locations yet and international visitors an idea of what to expect. While I sit at multiple spots in my temporary home inserting the usual "Yes guys, the ladies are cute!" statement, I better mention this important note. Do keep in mind that the place, with a simple tea house look, is narrow. There aren't many places to sit at. There are just 2, 3 tables? Right around there. Let me get the item comparison part out of the way. Items I recall seeing here that are not in my local Japanese/Japanese ties cafes/dessert spots (the latter type involves a place I reviewed in Satura, a mainly European cafe at one of my suburbs with Japanese ties, including a partnership with a cafe/bakery in Tokyo)? There are items such as yuzu kakigoori (Japanese shaved ice), shiratama dango, dango parfait, and soft serve ice creams of matcha and houjicha. Items I recall seeing in my usual spots that are not in Tsujiri? Besides the cute decorations (multiple Sanrio characters coming to my mind instantly), the local Japanese bakeries/cafes have items such as kouign amann, "Anpanman" pan, Japanese strawberry short cake, ube matcha latte, and Japanese sodas. The fun part section? Seeing that my K-foodie sis, her friend and I are in a tea shop, a (too) legit (to quit) Japanese tea shop, of course I had to get tea in some form, as I picked the cold houjicha latte. We also had the matcha houjicha soft serve, a daifuku and an order of dango. As expected, the foods and drink are so good. Even my sister's friend said that the place is a perfect 5/5, and my sis likes the place despite not being as fond of Asian cafes or Asian desserts/pastries that aren't Filipino as I am. (She does like European ones like kouign amann though.) The flaws section? Normally, I penalize a cafe a star if it doesn't carry a caffeine free drink as I seriously think about the kids and how I often don't need the insane amount of caffeine, but because Tsujiri is a Japanese green tea company, I can't deduct a point for not having a mugicha. Besides, outside of mugicha, houjicha is a good alternative for kids that are old enough anyway. So, with that said/typed, the only flaw I can think of is the limited parking, but of course, this is Downtown Toronto now. Tsujiri is that good of a tea spot. Though there isn't an ideal parking situation, the place is that good of a spot because of the good tea and food. It may never be my top Japanese cafe (I've known Clover for around 20 years or so), but it is that good never the less. If you're looking for a good cafe/dessert spot in Toronto or in multiple cities in Canada, go to a Tsujiri spot! +/Tsujiri is terrific at being hospitable and flashing dashing foods and drinks, and having multiple locations in the country shows how good the spots have been. -/There's limited parking, but of course, this is Downtown Toronto/whatever Canadian city you're from after all.

If you're seeking a vibrant spot for indulgent desserts and good company, Caffé Demetre is worth a visit. I recently spent an evening here with friends, where we savored inventive sweets in a cozy setting. Though some areas show signs of age, the café's warm ambiance and creative treats make it a memorable dessert destination. The Stormy Weather was a highlight, presenting a unique take on iced cappuccino. Blending iced coffee with honey vanilla ice cream and espresso, this drink struck the right balance--not too sweet or too bitter. A touch of syrup added just enough sweetness, making it an enjoyable and refreshing option. The Katy Berry is a strawberry lover's dream. Served in a waffle cone, it combined strawberry blush ice cream, fresh strawberries, and white chocolate sauce for a decadent, beautifully presented sundae. Each bite was a delicious blend of fruity and creamy flavors that felt delightfully rich without being too heavy. For a lighter option, Get Yuzu To It offered a sparkling, citrusy break from the richer desserts. The yuzu-lemongrass lemonade was crisp and refreshing, providing a perfect palate cleanser with a pleasant zing. As a classic choice, the Cappuccino was reliable though not particularly memorable. Topped with cocoa powder and served with sugar packets, it's a straightforward option if you're craving a simpler drink. Service was decent, though a bit inconsistent; while water refills were frequent, our extra napkin request went unnoticed. The café's washroom, decorated with hand-painted stripes, was clean but could use some maintenance like the exterior. Portion sizes, particularly for drinks, could be more generous considering the price. Despite these minor drawbacks, Caffé Demetre is a fun spot for dessert lovers. With its creative menu and inviting atmosphere, it's an ideal place for a relaxed night out with friends. read more

Wowowow! Ive been a long time d's fan admittedly, but havent really gone to the danforth location the past few years since I didn't really like the staff there, and then it closed down, or so I thought, but it turns out they were just doing renovations. The new place looks much better than before and the staff (all new, our waiter was telling us it was only his second shift) was much friendlier. The menu was the same ice cream goodness that everyone knows, so it was a matter of location and service for me, but boy is the new design gorgeous. I wish they would change the menu since they had it for a while, but at least I now know they're up to something good. Can't wait to take some of my friends there since they were all ragging on it closing down, happy to see what was really happening. read more

I recently visited Demetres and ordered a Double Scoop Sundae with Strawberry and Rocher ice cream. The food quality was excellent, with both flavours being rich, creamy, and delicious. The strawberry flavour was refreshing, while the Rocher flavour had a smooth chocolate-hazelnut taste. The presentation was appealing and well-prepared. Customer service was outstanding, as the employee took time to explain the flavour options and helped us choose.

Every time I'm craving an indulgent dessert that's as pretty as it is delicious, you'll find me here. The eggy crepe is perfectly thin, with a subtly fluffy, chewy texture that has a springy quality shining with each of the toppings. It serves as a brilliant base for the creamy strawberry ice cream and fresh strawberries, providing a creamy and tart contrast to cut through the richness. As a thoughtful finish, the milky white chocolate sauce adds hints of buttery vanilla while the golden waferettes add a crunchy texture with a mild caramel taste. read more

Went here not long ago with a few friends for a treat after work. Was slightly disappointed with the service, we weren't asked how everything was and one of my friends wanted something extra so, she had to look for the waitress. After the initial water drop off we didn't get water refilled at all which is kinda poopy given that everything is quite rich.

I would say the croffle isn't as good as the croffles in Cups which is why I was craving for it for dessert. That's the reason for one star less. Otherwise everything else is great! Pricing is on the higher side by the way but the portion is ginormous. I'll be coming here again after a small appetizer at a restaurant then here for dessert! Rating 4.2/5

Updating my review since it's been a while since I last came. We came on a Thursday evening, it was…read morescorching hot outside so it was nice to have some cool treats. We were greeted by the waitress and we ordered the bisco fever Belgian waffle. It took a while for the waitress to come back to take our order, I noticed she is the only worker on the floor and was tending to every table so the last couple of times it was the same thing, everything took longer to get the waiter/waitress' attention. One thing I wish is that there is another worker so that it doesn't take so long to order the dessert or get water. This was my favourite Belgian waffle, it had blondes, biscoff sauce that was nice and warm, biscoff cookie crumble with honey vanilla ice cream. Everything worked well together and tasted amazing. I loved the warm and crispiness of the waffle. It was definitely the star dessert at demetres! It was presented nicely with icing sugar and sauce over the waffles. I would most likely order this waffle again next time!

Today, as our weather is still on a tug of war phase just went in for some hot tea and a slice of napoleon cake. Nothing special to remember from the cake and I kinda feel like its a little stale the top layer, but its not that bad either just alright to have a little something to nibble while enjoying my hot steeped tea which by the way I think is a little pricey for 3$ a cup. Service crew are polite and quick handing your order at the pick up counter. Neat, cute and decent place to hang out to have a quick easy treats!
