This place is an absolute must try if you've never had Georgian cuisine. We also tried shkmeruli, which is roasted chicken leg quarters doused in the creamiest, most decadent garlic cream sauce. Kind of like alfredo on crack. And dipping into it with the khinkali bread?! Heaven. You have to experience it for yourself. Service was amazing, the waitstaff gave great hospitality and they all went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed our experience. Shoutout to the girl who gave us a super fun tableside mixing presentation!! Try to get a table inside, however their street patio is nice to eat on when the weather is decent. Absolutely will be returning to try their lamb khinkali which unfortunately they were sold out of today. Prices were super reasonable for the amount of food we were served. There was even enough for leftovers between two girls who hadn't eaten all day & had smoked right before coming here.

Hidden gem on the east side with delicious Eastern European food!…read more We got the items recommended to us, which was the borscht and schnitzel sandwich and those were absolutely delicious. The pork schnitzel sandwich was juicy yet had a great fried breading on the outside, probably one of the best I've had in the city. Borscht was light yet hearty, a must get. The platter was also tasty, pierogi was a highlight for me and they have a variety to choose from. Nice little patio outside to enjoy your meal on a nice sunny day, but the bar inside is equally as cozy. Service is super friendly and food comes quick.

A neighbourhood restaurant serving contemporary traditional Jewish and Eastern European dishes…read more Cozy spot with great service and good food. Things we got: Challah Buns 5/5 - Freshly baked buns and you get to choose your one dip. Got the chicken liver mousse and it was topped with a cherry sauce. The chicken liver was so good paired with the warm fresh bread. Crispy Potato 4/5 - Crisp and fluffy potatoes. Thought they were cut a tad too large for my liking. Served with mensch sauce. Summer Tomato 4/5 - Simple, refreshing dish. Smoked fish tonnato, rye crouton and garden herbs. What makes the dish was the sauce and croutons! Poppyseed Endive Salad 3/5 - Thought this was just okay. Simple ingredients but was nothing too over the top or special. Can skip. Chicken Schnitzel 4/5 - Came with a fermented plum sauce on top which I thought was a tad too sweet to pair with the chicken schnitzel. Great crisp though. Trout 4/5 - Cooked well and came with asparagus on the side. Sour cherry mix soft serve 5/5 - LOVED this to end the meal. Tarte and tasty. Overall, this spot was good with simple ingredients curating their menu. Favourite of the night was the Challah buns and chicken liver mousse.

Wow! An amazing dinner at Maven. I saw they had made the Air Canada top 10 restaurants list so I…read morehad to check it out. I'm so glad. We went for a 5pm reservation and it filled up rather quickly. The host and all the servers were really wonderful and attentive. For a group of 3 they recommended 4 small plates and 2 large ones all to share. Something nice is that they have complimentary sparkling water which I enjoyed. We ordered the challah - both the butter and pâté versions - the BBQ salami, crispy potatoes, the turnips, the endive salad, and the chicken schnitzel. They brought out the bread and salami first as well as complimentary house-made coleslaw which was crispy, light, and added a perfect vinegary bite. The challah was warm and airy. I didn't try the butter but I thought the pâté was very nice and smooth. The BBQ salami was incredible!! The mustard was a nice compliment with the apricot flavour as well. The turnips, salad, and potatoes came next, followed quickly by the chicken. I loved everything. The pear in the salad was an unexpected highlight. The chicken was the standout for sure. I absolutely loved it. For dessert we tried the cheesecake which was nice, a good balance of tang and mild sweetness. The bathrooms are also nice with the little WC signs, the good paper towel, and the recipes in addition to other art prints on the walls. I don't normally comment on the washrooms, but these were cute. Overall, everything we ate was wonderful and the service was great! It came out to about $170 for us but we ordered the perfect amount. It was a bit pricey but I really enjoyed everything. I would highly recommend Maven.

Polly Anna is a cute little spot on Gerrard East. We went for brunch - there are quite a few…read moresmaller tables near the front with a little bit of natural light. Otherwise, there are tables tucked near the wall and behind you, that receive a bit more of a dark vibe. Food was homey and well cooked. The burger and fries was a decent portion. We also ordered a rosti/potato type dish with a poached egg and some white fish. It wasn't that big of a portion, but we ended up sharing anyhow. The place is nothing super special, but just a great neighbourhood spot for decently cooked food (and some domestic celebrity spotting - we saw Kristin Kreuk at the adjacent table).

Great staff and space is definitely tight. The staff sat us at the corner banquette seating so we…read morecan prop our 3.5 months old in the corner upright, while we enjoy our meal. They are open Sunday for brunch and we had their Polly Wanna Burger and Mushroom Hash. The Polly wanna burger was juicy and delicious. The burger bun is generously buttered and toasted, so it was even better. The fries were a little bit overcooked, but if you like crispy fries than you'd like this. The gravy for the mushroom hash was tasty, but my husband and I expected rough chopped potatoes or something. The dish came as big chunks of roasted potatoes, and not a whole lot of mushrooms. The burger was definitely the winner today. We will definitely be back for the burger!

We love Rhapsody. The food is fantastic!…read more They have a good selection of appetizers and main courses. Their goulash soup is great and they always have that available. Be aware that their other soups are often "not available". Their salads are huge and must be shared. This is not a restaurant that you plan on having an appetizer, a main course and a dessert because the main course portions are gigantic. The schnitzels are really what you're going for. You get to choose 2 of 4 sides (rice, potatoes, red cabbage, veggies) and a schnitzel. You can't go wrong with any of the schnitzels. It all comes on your plate with the schnitzel often being bigger than the dinner plate itself. Their nokedli (Hungarian dumpling) is a side dish too and it is tasty. Their cucumber salad is good too. The restaurant is family owned and the staff are very helpful. They do go out of their way to assist or help and make accommodations. The restaurant is tired looking and there is a smell when you first walk in but nothing too bad. We would like to go more often, but it's usually reserved for more special occasions given the price. The price isn't crazy expensive given the price of food today and the portion, but it does exceed what would like to pay for a normal night out.

Very friendly service. Prices have gone up dramatically but…read morevalue has gone way down. Schnitzel was paper thin. What you are getting is a giant piece of of breading, just the coating which overflows the plate, with very little meat inside. Potato and cabbage were very good but can't recommend it for the prices being charged.

Went for Summerlicious 2025. My friend and I had never been to this place before, and we were happy…read morewith our first meal! The portions were generous and the service was fast, with a smile. The restaurant itself was nicely decorated -- high ceilings, calm colour plan, lots and lots of space. I see why it's an event space. We shared everything. Started off with saganaki and dip sampler (we chose the eggplant one and spicy feta), had fish of the day (sole) and braised beef for mains, and finished with citrus pound cake and spiced cake. My two favs were the eggplant dip (I know how much work goes into making these) and the braised beef (so tender!). What a great way to showcase their menu. Would not have discovered this gem, if it had not been for Toronto's Summerlicious event.

Came to Floga (by Mr. Greek) with some coworkers…read more Pulling up, this is a big space. The place looked very clean, nice decor, fresh fish on ice. The bar area is massive as well. Definately a ton of seats. Menu is quite extensive, lot of great options for everyone. Prices are mid to high for the portion size I found (a bit on the small size). I ordered the lemonade chicken. This is a chicken stuffed with spinach and feta. This is covered in sauce and paired with a vegetable and rice medley. The flavour of the lemon sauce is delicious. Food is tasty but chicken was a bit on the dry side, maybe left to long on the grill or waiting for our food to arrive and it dried out. Had to use a lot of sauce which is not a bad thing as the sauce was delicious. Some ordered the chicken or pork souvlaki, portion looked small for the meat but the Greek salad looked refreshing. They were saying the potatoes were really nice. Waiter didn't really say much, was a man of few words. Not sure I would go back to often, but if you craving Greek food and in the area they have something for everyone. Looked like they participate in summerlicious if you looking for something a bit heavier and want an app, main and dessert for $34.

It is one of the fanciest places I've ever been, and it was so worth the experience! We were treated with the upmost respect, and we were treated with lovely piano playing all night. It really set a calm atmosphere. I ordered the prime rib (medium rare), and it was SO tender and juicy! It cut so easily, and it was complimented perfectly with the mashed potatoes, which I normally do not care for. Finished off the meal with chocolate cake, and it was good! It wasn't necessarily soft, but it was a massive portion that could be easily shared. Overall very lovely experience, and I would come here again for another big event or celebration.
