Interior

Cute interior, decent foods, our waitress was friendly and attentive, food came a bit slow since we came during the rush hour, we didn't mind at all, enjoyed the slow paced, chill, brunch vibe!

Grand slam breakfast
Ayad F.

This is one of the best brunch places ever. Great food. Generous portions. Great service. Amazing and well maintained booths. Reasonable prices. New vegan menu. If you haven't been there in a while I strongly recommend giving them a try as they have upgraded their vegan items especially the Reuben. New items were added as well. Overall amazing keep up the good work.

I cannoy accept this rating! First of all, this place is beautiful. So nice and feminine. Great for brunches. The service is great and attentive. I have been here twice and have enjoyed the experience both times. The food is good. Nothing amazing but delicious nonetheless. I think this will continue to be a meet up place for me and my friends.

Veg meal

Book club.. meal Location: nice parking with lots of other things near bye. Very small compared to the one down town. If you come near meals you get on a wait list. They should really look at another location cause they have the custom but most don't want to wait to sit.. Food: it was ok mine was a bit cold the others look great but no butter on the toast. Staff: very nice and welcoming.

Smart Heart Breakfast - Greek salad, Atlantic smoked salmon, poached eggs, rye toast

Had brunch here a few Thursday's ago and it was nice! Pretty closeby to where we were staying during my Toronto trip and I loved that they offer healthier versions of typical brunch dishes, but also nutella waffles if you're feeling indulgent. Even though I'm not vegan and didn't order any vegan items, I was impressed by the vegan menu here - it's pretty extensive. There's a bit of everything for everyone! I decided to be on the healthier side and got the Smart Heart Breakfast w/ poached eggs, smoked salmon and the house salad. Love the balance of light carbs (toast), greens and protein - this is actually so hard to find at most brunch spots. It's usually either granola/yogurt or a fried chicken & waffles, with no in-between. There was a slight mishap, however, where I got a fried egg instead of the poached that I asked for but it was quickly resolved - they let us keep the fried egg and immediately brought out the correct eggs. Everything was delicious! I also had the maple latte since it seemed v Canadian and different and it was also so good. Definitely on the sweeter side but not overbearingly so.

I came on a Sunday for brunch after an appointment with my boyfriend and met up with some friends in the area to eat here. It was quite busy but luckily there was a table for 4 outside. We ordered the salmon Benny and steak and eggs. Both were decent dishes, however it was on the pricier side as it was $18-22 per dish. It was definitely bigger portions and the taste was not bad. I don't think any place can screw up eggs and toast. We also got coffee and our server was pretty attentive to check up on us to see if we needed anything. Overall, decent brunch place if your in the area.

After seeing a lot of Instagram posts about this place I decided to check this place out for my birthday. My partner and I came here Sunday morning before 10am and the place was rather empty which was great! The hostess told us we could sit anywhere and I decided to sit by the corner booth for two near the window. The place is super cute and picture worthy. My first issue was how poorly the service was, mainly the server that was handling my table to the service in general. After sitting down we look over the online menu and I guess being in a corner isn't the best seating choice but I figure I wasn't gonna be rude and take up a table meant for four people. So flagging down a server was pretty difficult and when I did flag someone down, turns out she wasn't in charge of my section and I had to wait for our actual server. Her actions of initial acknowledgement were non exisiting, she took our order down and that was that what a major turn off. When our food arrived, I had to ask for cutlery and water while everyone else around me being seated with different servers were on point with water to start and Cutlery smh. We got the fluffy pancakes with compote to share, my partner got the mushroom omelette with seasoned potatoes and salad while I got the eggs benny with seasoned poatoes and salad. The potatoes were delicious, probably the only thing that tasted great as they were super crispy. The salad was citrus and refreshing but nothing too special. The poached eggs were nice. The pancakes were fluffy and compote was alright, a bit bland but I get that's why there was syrup on the side to balance. The omelette was so dry, pretty overcooked and I almost choked on it as it got stuck half way down my system so definitely not recommended. Food wise and presentation I thought it looked pretty with the edible flowers and the pancakes were pretty colorful. Our server did check up on us twice, once to ask us how our food was and two to ask if we needed a refill on coffee after that she disappeared. The place did pick up and started getting real busy so I could understand why she was running around. Getting the bill was probably more difficult than anything I've experienced, trying to look for our server who was non existing was even harder. At one point I lost my patience and tried to flag down someone who acknowledged that I wanted my bill but then went on to take down orders for her section, put down food, etc. I get it, it's not her section but honestly by the time my server got here I was already fed up and totally done with this place. I didn't understand why there were over 10 staff just roaming around and not actually doing anything productive. Nobody took the initiative to help each other out, everyone seemed to be fending for themselves. Most of them looked like they were being forced to work against their will lmao. It was overpriced and I don't mind paying for overpriced brunch but at least it's gotta taste good and not try to kill me lol.

I loved everything about this place. The food was delicious, service was great, and the place itself is so cute. I had a hot coffee and the western omelette. 10 out of 10 recommend

We came here for the first time on a Sunday morning for brunch. The resto was packed but luckily a table opened up and we got a good spot inside the resto. The host was very friendly. The patio is also available if you prefer to be outdoors. We ordered the freshly squeezed orange juice and that was ok. My hubby had the coffee and it was bottomless. The food was really good. Very good flavour and the eggs Benny looked so pretty. The portions were generous.l and the food was hot which we like. Wile will definitely be back!

Evviva is a chain restaurant serving breakfast and lunch where they have multiple locations across the city. Their newest location is in North York near Yonge/Empress. Over the weekends, they do not take reservations for brunch or lunch. They have an extensive vegan brunch menu as well as brunch classics. My party of 4 and I dined at Evviva on a Saturday during a long weekend recently. We arrived at the restaurant around 12:30 to the bustling space and was put on the waitlist for a table (the restaurant texts you once your table is ready). We waited about half an hour for our table. The restaurant was extremely busy during our time there. Service was a bit slow but we understood that the staff were extremely busy with the volume of customers. Our server was friendly and did her best with how busy she. Food wise, my party and I ordered the following: - Vegan slam platter (opted for the tofu scramble) - Chicken and waffles - Breakfast sandwich - Bacon, sausage, ham, and eggs (added pancakes) - Drinks included freshly squeezed orange juice, matcha latte, and kombucha. Food portions were large! I had the vegan slam platter and I was not able to finish everything. The cripsy soy bacon and beyond meat patty were delicious alongside the tofu scramble. My dish also came with your choice of toast as well as green and home fries. I had a bite of the pancakes as well which were made well. Overall, a cozy vibe and big portions. A nice addition to the area!

Beyond meat burger
Elaine W.

I love this place! Was so excited when it opened it. I was so eager that there was a day when I walked (barged) into the place and startled some construction workers since they place wasn't open but I thought it was. My go-to is the salmon egg bennies. It is packed with flavour, the home fries do not dissappoint and the salad is proper. My friend got the chicken and waffles and expected it to be closer to southern comfort food but it is more sweet than savory when consisdering the gravy/topping since it only comes with syrup on the side. Today I decided to not get the bennies (which I have now enjoyed on 4 previous ocassions haha) adn got the beyond burger which was shockingly large and delish. It comes with 2 onion rings inside, vegan bacon, pickles, and all the works. You can get yam fries with it at no extra cost. Coffee is bottomless and wished the one they brewed in the post was just a tad bit stronger. The decor is beautiful. I wanted to also highlight HOW AMAZING THE STAFFF and MANAGER are. Today they were short staffed and only 1 server waiting on a nearly full restaurant. She was doing such a fantastic job (lady with short light hair and tattoo sleeve - you are superwoman) and the manager came by to check on my friend and I. Apart from today, on the busiest fully staffed weekend they seat guests rather quickly and every other server I have been helped by is just so attentive and I think I love them haha. I have been there almost every week since they opened - my friends have contemplated staging an intervention LOL

Interior

Cute decor, perfect for a girls' day brunch, but the service is a bit lacking. When we came in, we were greeted by a server that simply pointed to a general area of the restaurant to sit. Upon sitting down, a server came up to us and asked if we were ready to order, which we obviously weren't, so we said to give us 5 min to look at the menu. Selection is very wide, every brunch item you can think of. When it came to flagging down another server to take our order, we had an awkward experience where one server saw us and signaled to another to take our order. The other server came to us and seemed to have a problem with the iPad they use to take orders, but instead of saying something to us, she was silent the whole time she walked up to us, turned her back to us to fumble with the iPad, stood with her back turned for a legit 5 mins awkwardly, and then left to get another iPad. When she came back, she also didn't say anything, but simply stared at us as if we were supposed to know what to do. So we said our order, she confirmed by reading it back to us, then left. It was definitely an awkward experience. We ordered the Atlantic Smoked Salmon Eggs Benedict and the Chicken Mozzarella Pesto sandwich. The eggs Bennie were awesome, there was a generous slice of smoked salmon that wasn't overly salty. The salad, however, was weirdly salty... The potatoes were okay, not particularly good but not bad either. The ciabatta bun on the sandwich was unusually hard, but the chicken was tender and pesto filling was lovely. The sandwich was definitely a mixed bag. Overall, service is pretty bare bones and honestly a bit lacking for this type of restaurant vibe. There are SO many staff, but they all seem reluctant to talk to you unless you're ordering or getting the bill. When interacting with them, it sort of feels like they all don't like working there--they don't even seem to like working with each other, which is super weird... The food is kind of pricy for what it is, but you'll get some nice IG-worth pics while you're there at least.

Got the Smoked Salmon Eggs Benedict and the portions was pretty small. It was a good dish but for the price, I wouldn't order this again and probably try something else. The pancakes and French toast seemed pretty good and was a good portion. The interior has nice photo ops and great staff.

Lumière Pâtisserie is a Thornhill gem--proof that you don't have to go downtown for great pastries…read more Yes, it's tucked into a suburban plaza off a parking lot, but inside it's light-filled, calm, and smells like heaven. The service is consistently warm, and the pastry case is hard to resist. We've tried many of their cakes, and the blackcurrant queen cake is hands down our favorite--tart, elegant, and just sweet enough. Their salted caramel croissant is beautifully laminated and filled with just the right amount of caramel. In fact, their croissants across the board are solid--flaky, tender, and buttery without being greasy. The sourdough bread is excellent, and the espresso drinks are reliably strong and well-crafted. It may look like Paris inside, but don't let that inspire your inner Francophile--the staff are lovely, but no one's following your French. Still, this is the kind of place that keeps regulars coming back. We're definitely among them.

The espresso here is excellent - well-bodied in flavour, medium roast (I think?), and pairs nicely with the sweetness of the cakes & pastries. There's also a wide selection of small personal cakes to choose from - just make sure you come early since they do sell out! We shared the cream & crumb cheesecake (simple, classic, and incredibly creamy!) and tiramichoux (think a tiramisu profiterole - such a fun twist!). Looking forward to my next visit already :)

There are a lot of coffee and donut places you can go, but when in Canada, it's hard not to think…read moreof Tim Hortons. Tim Hortons is a Canadian chain specializing in both coffee and baked goods, founded by hockey player Tim Horton and businessman Ron Joyce in 1964. While I don't go for the coffee, every now when visiting Canada, I'll stop by a Tim Hortons for hot chocolate and a donut. A few days ago when I was visiting Toronto, I met up with a cousin at the Tim Hortons at the Promenade in Thornhill, and while she got a coffee and a donut, I enjoyed a hot chocolate and a donut. We had the opportunity to order through a kiosk or in person, and we opted for an in-person order which included a discount through the app. The drinks and donuts were ready rather quickly, and while there was limited seating in the Tim Hortons itself, we sat in the food court area just outside of the Tim Hortons. The staff were nice and seemed to know what they were doing. The hot chocolate was tasty and chocolatey while the donut (a Chocolate Dip Donut) had a thicker dip than I am used to, but it was delicious! This particular location is open daily from 9 AM to 6 PM, and there is no drive-through option as it is in a food court of a mall. On the website (https://www.timhortons.ca), you can find menus, locations, catering and franchisee options, delivery, and promotions. Such promotions include Tims x Reese's, where you can get a Peanut Butter Chocolate Iced Capp or any of their other products made with Reese's. Plus, there are items with Fall flavors like Pumpkin Spice Iced Capp, Pumpkin Spice Donut, Pumpkin Spice Latte, Pumpkin Spice Muffin, and Pumpkin Spice Iced Latte. There are also new Matcha Lattes. If ordering on the app, you can also order hockey trading cards and/or a binder. Feel free to join Tim's Rewards at https://www.timhortons.com/timsrewards, where you can earn points for purchases to redeem for free items, score exclusive offers, skip the line and order ahead, sweepstakes to win, and free birthday treat.

There aren't a lot of tables with plugs so be aware of that before coming. I got the pistachio latte which was recommended by the staff here and they were onto something! It's delicious, creamy, and nutty all in one, while also still giving me that caffeine hit. Staff here were friendly. Ambiance was beautiful. Love that they are a half cafe vibe but also serve a full menu of food and even have wine and cocktails.

The interior is sleek and modern and the staff are friendly but as other reviews mentioned can be a little forgetful ... sometimes we had to remind them more than once of a drink or a small request. However the staff are very sweet and always seem to be excited about their food and drinks and love talking about anything new on their menu ... really enjoyed the croissants that comes with pistachio, chocolate, and I believe Nutella, and that they can make immediately for you if they've run out of a certain flavor. They have pastries, wine, a big coffee menu, sandwiches, and pasta. There's some street parking and if you don't mind walking across the street there's plenty of spots at Bayview Mall. They also have free underground parking but it's a bit of a guessing game to get to the first time ... if you go behind their building parallel to Sheppard is Thomas Clark Way. If you're facing north towards their building on Thomas Clark Way then the parking driveway is part of the building to the left of the church, the parking garage door is actually perpendicular to Thomas Clark Way. There's a few parking areas on that road so it's hard to find the first time but once you get it then it's really convenient especially in the winter - the restaurant is right there. Highly recommended for the great staff and casual yet elegant vibe.

The…read moreratings were high, the photos looked great, and I figured it'd be a safe bet -- so I brought my partner along expecting solid coffee. After trying my vanilla iced latte and my partner's macchiato... I wondered if this place might actually be better known for food or matcha, based on what I've seen in other reviews - the coffee was not good. The espresso beans seemed to be over-roasted, which were quite bitter for our liking as opposed to something more subtly chocolatey and nutty. My iced latte also got watery pretty quickly as the ice melted it seemed, and ended up tasting more like the kind of latte you'd get from a fast-food chain (or the espresso shot was way too long). A bit of a letdown, especially since the two fairly small drinks came to about $18. The space itself is cozy, and I really like the vinyl collection (which earned the 2 stars). That said, the records are noticeably pricey compared to typical vinyl shops like Sonic Boom. A lot of them -- even ones with just Side A -- were priced at $55 and up. I didn't cross-check the barcodes on Discogs, but while I love the curation (especially the focus on Japanese jazz and city pop -- really cool stuff), I find it hard to believe all of them are rare pressings worthy of those $55-to-several-hundred-dollar price tags. As an avid collector myself, I wouldn't come here to buy the records. Service was friendly.
