    Absolutely loved the chicken breast sandwich I got from this spot. Very reasonable price, bread was perfectly soft, and the flavors and textures were phenomenal. Plenty of seats around in the market, too. Super glad I ended up choosing this spot, would absolutely return!

    Tunacado Sandwich
    Jo-Anne L.

    I think I've found my new addiction. It's called the tunacado sandwich (their latest drug here) and it's been haunting my mind day and night since I first tried it. I've consumed it 3 times in the last 3 consecutive days, and the craving IS. NOT. ABATING. I really should try to cut down and control myself but the dealer is so sweet and nice and made me feel like family when I met her. Honestly, this thing is quite healthy with a great balance of protein, veggies, and carbs, plus it's been extremely helpful for my mental well-being. Other than short term drowsiness and long term weight gain, the side effects are not too bad either. All things considered, there are much worse addictions and everyone needs a vice, so I'll be keeping this as mine for a while longer. Disclaimer: The above is only half serious, please don't report this place.

    Chef's Choice 12" Sandwich

    The Chef's Choice sandwich is always my go to here, filled with delicious toppings like pesto, avocado, crispy onions, and juicy chicken, and super filling!

    Chefs Choice sandwich.

    I was walking up Yonge Street and wanted to grab a quick lunch, so Grandma Loves You seemed like a perfect choice. (I'd been wanting to try their food for a while.) I was tempted by a bunch of their offerings but I had to go with the Chefs Choice ("Grilled chicken strips, avocado, tomato, hot pepper, fresh onion, olives, crispy onion, pesto sauce and Grandma's homemade hot sauce"). (When in doubt, always go with something featuring the restaurant's name or the word chef in it.) It was ready about 10 minutes after I ordered it and it's a solid sandwich. Though none of the individual components are anything too special (i.e. I'd be very surprised to learn that they cooked that chicken themselves), everything works quite well together. It's just a solid, flavorful sandwich. (The doughy, chewy bread wasn't great, though, since it meant the components kept getting squished out of the sandwich. A soft roll would've been far more appropriate.)

    Bustlng location doesn't take away from the warm hill vibe the place has with it's indoor and outdoor seating.. Large menu offers something for everyone, savoury and sweet options. The family vlends their Armenian roots with their Iranian and German culture.and the result is some original flavour combos and high quality German Rye and fresh bread for their sandwiches, and and hot dogs.

    The service was so friendly that it seemed like I was just part of the fam the moment I stepped in. Friendly faces all around. I was walked through on the selections and even some great recommendations! The place is welcoming and bright and the chairs are comfortable. I decided on an iced coffee with caramel, french dog, German ham salad and I had to try that white chocolate cranberry cookie. The hot dog had me wanting to stand on the lovely chairs and yell "Viva La France!" The hot dog was amazing and the combination was smart. The melty Brie took it home for me. The salad was delicious as well. That cookie was just the perfect finish for the meal. You must give this place a try.

    Best sandwich shop in Toronto! My go to is the spicy ham and cheese sub! It is so delicious (crispy onions are soooooo good!). Service is also great staff is very knowledgeable about the menu.

    Meatball & cheese
    Kathleene S.

    Made a visit with a friend yesterday (Saturday) evening at 5pm. There were 2 people ahead of us waiting on their orders. It's tucked in the inner corner of a plaza, steps away from what seems to be a brand new Starbucks. A block away from Rosedale Station. Inside there's very limited single person high seating, 4 bar-style stools if I recall correctly. Came because of the hype and definitely felt grandma's love. I ordered the meatball & cheese, and end to end of the sub was a huge meatball? Meatloaf? It tasted great. I've been craving a meatball marinara sub from subway for a long, long time. Unfortunately, this was not a good replacement and did not hit the spot - this one was a bit salty with the vegetables not helping to balance the flavour. But, it was still good and a great portion. I don't really buy sandwiches so I think the portion:price ratio was good (I ordered the 6-inch). Would LOVE to come back and try their hot dogs and other sandwiches.

    "A champion of hospitality" is the word that describes this place for me. Once you interact with Sarah the owner, you know what I mean. Welcoming, commitment to making their customers happy, unique/superb food, and super reasonable price for the size and quality - all makes sense that Grandma Loves You has been raved by so many people! I went shortly after they opened for the day. I saw several people already there before me, picking-up orders and eating/waiting for food in their outdoor eating space. I got: - Spicy Ham Sandwich - French dog - Meatball and cheese sandwich. Spicy Ham Sandwich had generous layers of ham, tomato, Jalapeno, Crispy Onion, fresh diced red onion, lettuce, and homemade hot sauce. The bread had crispy skin with a light & fluffy interior that absorbs the ingredients' moisture and flavor without getting soggy. Biting into it, I knew that this place knows the best bread-meat-garnish ratio and texture contrast. The Meatball and Cheese sandwich used a different bread - a softer one that embraces tender meatballs, the perfect amount of homemade tomato sauce, cheese, lettuce, tomato & fresh onion. Again, this bread did not allow these rich ingredients to overwhelm the bread's quality. Harmonious. I enjoyed the different textures of the bread that they use. The French dog - OMG as many other reviewers say, is innovative and opens up a new hotdog world. Generous amount of brie with blueberry jam - OK I see brie and jam everywhere, but with wiener sandwiched in a croissant? Never thought of that and it was so good! While I was waiting for the order outside, people started to line up and the place got very, very busy! But when my order was ready, she came out with my food so pleasantly. When she saw I had no big bag, then she went into the busy store again to get me a bag for take-out. GLY is a small place in the corner of a busy plaza, without no fancy signs or interior decorations. But you are guaranteed to have a superb meal and customer services that make your day!

    Came on a week day during lunch and it was busy! Which is a great sign except for the wait. Took about 20min to get our sandwiches and they tasted great. We tried the chef choice which was their signature hot sandwich and the spicy ham and cheese. The chef choice came with chicken, avocado, bacon and all the veggies. The spicy ham and cheese was good too. Came with a bunch of crispy onions and it wasn't too spicy for us. We enjoyed the ham and cheese more. Overall we would come back and try the other items on the menu. They have other interesting hot dogs and other hot sandwiches that look good!

    This review is similar to my recent Yelp elite experience here, except that I bought a chocolate banana red fruit croissant. I felt grandma's love when I dropped by this eatery just after noon today. I love grandma right back! I haven't dropped by the Summerhill area for years. I have had Grandma Loves You (GLY) flagged on my to-visit list for a while. It was a dream come true to finally come here today. Driving southbound along Yonge Street, I took one look at the small parking lot in the tiny plaza where GLY was and knew that there was no way that I was going to find a parking spot there. There are essentially three spots for customers. Instead, I parked on Gibson Avenue, which is the street south of where GLY is. It was free. I do appreciate growing up in Toronto and learning how to parallel park in tight spots in the Beaches. That experience instantly came in handy when I parked here. I walked in and was warmly greeted by Sarah, one of the co-owners. She took my name down and was so nice. She said to help myself to a drink because it was a hot day. Wow! It was such an unexpected gesture. The perk was to pick up two hot dogs: - French - Sweden You could make substitutions. I wanted to give both a try as a newbie. I have yet to have met a hot dog that I didn't enjoy eating. Sarah asked whether I wanted the French hot dog in a regular bun or croissant. OMG! Croissant all the way! She said that she'd bring the food out to me and that I could find a spot outside on the patio. I found a table and my food came moments later. The place was busy at lunch time, but the wait wasn't horrible. The French hot dog looked so classy and amazing. The hot dog was yummy and juicy. The slab of brie was generous and paired so nicely with the naturally sweet blueberries. The croissant was flaky and perfect. It was excellent! I couldn't eat the Sweden hot dog because I was stuffed from the French one! Instead, I had it when I got home. The crispy fried onions were awesome on it! It was divine. Huge fan! Sarah came out to chat with me. I loved how she wants to make sure that you are enjoying your meal. I tried to tip her and she didn't want any of it. This moment felt like being with family. I managed to get my tip in by buying a chocolate banana red fruit croissant that Artin, the other co-owner and Sarah's hubby, brought over to me. Delicious! I don't think there's anything on the menu that sucks. There was a single chocolate chunk cookie in the display case, which signalled to me that this place makes excellent goodies. A few months ago, my friend and I asked whether we could be adopted on GLY's Instagram account. I felt that I became an adopted member today simply chatting with Sarah. She has such a warm spirit and such a giving heart. I was honoured to have met her today. I had an excellent first-time experience at this eatery today. I can't wait to return and try more yummy sandwiches off the menu. (268)

    Grandma is weird, and I dig it! While the dogs themselves are just ok (would have liked them a bit fatter and more juicy for that price), Grandma shows her love with everything else that's on them. Hotdog in a croissant with blueberry jam and brie? I dunno why, but it was delicious! How about overload a hotdog with sweet mango, contrast that with sweet chili sauce, and drown it in goat cheese? Yes please! After my wife and I wolfed the dogs down, we sent a couple of pictures and descriptions to friends, and all of them were like WTF. And we assured them - sounds weird and wacky, yes, but everything worked really well and tasted wonderful. Thanks Grandma! ps: As we were getting ready to leave, we saw they also have daily one-off specials. The Japan dog on Thursday piqued my interest. I asked the lovely owner what that was about, and she said it was hotdog with teriyaki sauce, avocado and seaweed. Yup, will definitely be back.

    My wife wanted to go there so we went on 2023-01-31 mid-morning when there would more selection…read more They definitely have quite a selection of pastries and savoury food. My wife always judges a French Cafe by their Butter Croissant ($3.00) and she liked it! She also noticed all the  staff speak French sp it gives it even more legitimacy.  She also ordered a Flat White ($4.50) which was also good. I ordered a Plum Almond Tart ($7.25) because it was the prettiest. It was super delicious so it was definitely a good choice! Service was courteous and friendly. You place your order at the counter and bring it to your table. Someone will come around to clear the dishes when you are done It is a great place to have a nice casual time eating and socializing. They make all their food in-house in the basement. There are products for sale such as coffee beans, fruit syrup, maple syrup, smoked sauces, olive oil, scented soap, wine glassware, etc. I will definitely come back again to try other items. There is free WiFi. The neo-bisto is not wheelchair accessible since there are stairs leading up to the entrance. There are two gender-neutral washrooms. There is free street parking on their one-way south-bound street. Review 2023-017

    Amazing place! I…read morecalled ahead to find out if they had this plum tart I purchased the first time I was there. Yet no one answered the phone. No problem. Hopped on my bike and a half hour later I was there. The friendly staff helped me by answering my question regarding eggs and which items did not have any in the recipes. This place was also super poppin' when I got there. It was earlish in the day around 10:30am and it seemed all the tables were pretty much taken. They are adding a dinner menu which is very exciting. Their pastries are phenomenal!!! Picked up a plum and pistachio tart, a chocolate mousse cake and an apple Danish for my mom. Plus a chocolate caramelized croissant. So much butter, and yet so good. Brought my container, which they happily used. The last time I visited this spot back in 2022, I vowed I would come back and take up space in that beautiful bay window seat. Yet I haven't followed through with that yet. One day. They also changed the name, since I was there last it was called Le Conciliabule Lab. Le Conciliabule means, "speak easy", as their website says. It was used back in the day to describe a place where people would come together and talk about everything and nothing. I can definitely say that happens here. What a beautiful concept, "everything and nothing". Now named Bisou, which means kiss. That's actually really simple and sweet. Since every pastry and any food item or beverage enjoyed here is a kiss for your tastebuds. Love it. Keep going team. You are amazing!
