Hmmm... minus the great dive bar atmosphere, I'm afraid there's nothing very special about this place. I've been to Sneaky Dee's a few times and every single time it has not failed to disappoint me. I've had the food a couple of times but I usually just stick to the nachos. There's nothing special about them except for the fact that they pack on the cheese (I love cheese). Other than that, they're not amazing nor are they bad. The drink, on the other hand, are a different story. The drinks are EXTREMELY watered down and overpriced for what they are. I once had a round of tequila shots and they had to be 1/4 water and 3/4 tequila... and it was also warm. Gross. This place has definitely lost its novelty. I can't stand to overpay for watered down liquor and meh food. read more

This place is proof, you don't have to be good, you just have to be consistent and reliable to build a following and survive. I use to be a bit of a regular here with my neighbor Chris. Back in the day when I cared less about nutrition and quality and more about quantity and price.Nothing has changed in the many years I have dropped into this place. Same dirt on the walls. The pictures of the Nachos look good, I must return again and give them a try. I'm a follower but not a regular. Everyone should go here at least once. read more

Very hipster/punk/grunge. Tables are carved with graffiti. Beer is cheap and the fries/nachos are amazeballs. Get the Destroyer and share between two people, you will be glad you did. Apparently this is a Toronto institution to go to... I can see why. Those fries were boss! read more

We only time for chips&salsa & a cocktail and it was super reasonable but I wish the salsa had more of a kick to it. Was really hoping to try the texas eggs read more

Best nachos ever!!!! Great place to go for a piss up and tex mex, You can always stumble upstairs for some live music, which also has a bar and draft. Saw "the satellites" there Canadian reggae band. read more

Good prices, good food day or night. Always leave very full and without emptying my wallet. Though the place used to be more of a grundgy rocker bar it has started to trend more towards a hipster to be seen destination. Don't let the trashy look fool you, I have it on great authority that this place runs one of the cleanest kitchen's in the city. read more

Service was slow and the waitress wasn't friendly at all. She acted like she hated her job. I can't see how or why anyone would be drooling over this place. I had the nachos as an appetizer, they were cold and not as awesome as people describe them to be, in my opinion they were horrible. My main was the chicken enchiladas served with salad, rice and beans. PUKE. It was horrible. No need for an explanation as to why. My sister had the steak sandwich and fries. She was hoping she wasn't going to simpley get a steak on a bun but that's what she got. It was good tasting, I could make it at home with minimal effort. My son had the quesadilla with fries salad and beans. He covered up the taste of the meal with sour cream (we went through 2 "large" orders). I won't be visiting this place again and would advise anyone with a pallet not to either. Save your money. read more

How could you not love this place! They have the best nachos ever, they're a reputable concert venue, the beer is cheap, the service is good, the crowd is attractive and the location is good. I'm never had a bad experience at Sneaky Dee's and I've been maybe 100 times. A truly unique landmark in downtown Toronto. read more

Rude staff and my friends and I felt super sick for one day after eating the nachos. Do not recommend at all

Never ate, only speaking from a bar perspective -- but this will always be a favorite staple stop on one of our many trips to the city.

Very underground. The feel is chill. I like the graffiti vibe throughout the restaurant. Much more social and live in the evening. A great place to get together with friends for a bite. Price reflects food portions accordingly. The options and the flavours are amazing! I know I'm definitely coming back I got the Tres Tacos. The chicken was a little dry, but the pulledpork & fish was bomb. Service was alright, but I can understand.. We went on a Saturday and was quite busy. read more

Went with my father and the waitress told us to sit anywhere. It took 15 minutes without even getting menus. Meanwhile the place was dead empty and the waitress was chit chatting with the bartender. Eventually we got up and asked the waitress why we hadn't received any menus. Her reasoning was that she didn't see us come in. That was the last straw and we walked out the door. Very unprofessional and an overall unpleasant experience. read more

Oh this place is where you should be when you're craving mexican comfort food. It's so good here and the atmosphere just makes it better. Graffiti walls, pitchers of beer, hipster waiters. It's literally the place you should be on a Friday night!! Food is good never lets you down, and it's not too expensive either for the huge portions they give you. If you're a night owl this is the place for you because the close at 3 on Weekdays! read more

Get the nachos. Any of them. Avoid the fish sandwich. Fries are good. Atmosphere is decidedly very casual. A great spot if you're looking for a cold PBR on a Friday, or just hungry as all get out and the kitchen sink is the cure. Good service too. read more

Do you like getting drunk for cheap and eating dirty Mexican food?? Sneaky Dees has a great atmosphere absolutely lacking in pretension, great staff and (apparently) actual Mexicans making the Mexican food! Extra points for opening well past last call as well. read more

"Best Nachos in Toronto" is a dubious claim at best. The fact that Sneaky's now has Daiya cheese as an alternative for those who do not eat dairy is a definite bonus and being open late certainly hasn't hurt the appeal. This place has an excellent beer list, but mixed drinks are very hit or miss. Try the vegan cupcakes. When they have them, they are awesome. read more

Cheap drinks and a fun crowd make Sneak's a solid choice on most nights. Karaoke on Mondays is fun as hell. The staff are cool too! Score.

Shake A Tail for dancing Saturday night upstairs + drunken nachos downstairs = a cheap and fun evening!

Best nachos, best chicken caesar salad, best chicken wings, best caesar drinks, best shitty Mexican breakfast and dirtiest shithole in the city. ALWAYS ask for your chicken well done here. My mom used to take me here as a kid so it's possible I'm biased but I fucking love it. read more

The first night I arrived in Toronto, I was told multiple times by random encounters that the nachos at Sneaky Dee's are to die for. "They're the best nachos in town." I looked at MCPhresh and I wondered how good could it be? Enchiladas? Wait, that looks like a nacho chip. What am I eating? I swear, when you can't even distinguish the food, that's just a culinary blasphemy. My friend and I ordered a nacho plate with pulled pork, guacamole, avocado, beans and a ton of cheese. It's a very confusing dish. I think Torontians made a mistake in calling this a nacho. It's filled with so many toppings, I was a little disturbed halfway through. Sometimes I got a whole glob of avocado, other times I just get a bunch of beans on a nacho chip. I came to this place twice during my Toronto trip. The first one was in the afternoon and not knowing where to eat, I came in here and ordered the fajitas. As a daily special, it was definitely worth it, but I doubt I would pay full price for the item. The prices are a little hefty if the target is college students, but the quantity definitely redeems it. When I came in during the afternoon, I definitely had a hard time finding a place to sit because several seats were covered with a liquid of some sort. I've also ordered their wings because I have a wing fetish and it was drenched in so much sauce, I couldn't even recognize the bones or meat. Overall, it's comparable to a Pappy's back in Berkeley, except I would refrain from trying the food again. This is one place I would not miss for a long time. My head feels a little heavy just from thinking about the food. read more

Loved everything about this place . The vibe , the noise and the food . Can't wait to go back and try a new dish

I love Sneaky Dees so much sometimes I dream about it. It's always one of my favourite places to stop in Toronto! I love the king nachos! and the hangover breakfast options are great too! read more

Good spot if you're looking for some gnarly drunk food. The nachos aren't anything special ...they're just massive in quantity. Beer selection is okay read more

I use to come here to eat all the time in 2011. I always got the Guadalajara combination platter. A taco, 2 enchiladas, rice, beans and salad. Its very filling and presented perfectly. The snickers tart is perfect to finish off a great meal. I prefer here during the day, as the day goes on, it gets busier and much louder. The bathrooms are semi clean. The decor and amount of vandalism/art/doodling is a little over the top. Theres usually shows upstairs on certain days. Wednesdays has a $3/bottle special of local beers. I came here again a few days ago and was still very satisfied with the Guadalajara platter. Still made the same and tasted perfect. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking to fill up on Tex mex food. The best around in my opinion. My friend for the lunch special with 2 tacos, one pork and one chicken. She was very satisfied with the food. read more

Lively vibe. Very loud. Decent food. Great drinks and service is good. It gets pretty busy so make sure you beat the rush so you wont have to wait outside in a huge line. read more

great place to hang out and join canadian mousehead lager (of course other brands as well). don't miss the home made burger wih a 6 oz patty (d-e-l-i-c-i-o-u-s) and chickenwings with hot sauce (fab)! bonus: lovely staff! read more

Love the vibe here. It's always busy any night of the week. Beer is cheap and the Nachos are great. I love how they will play a whole cd as well. Live music upstairs most nights of the week. Just a great dive bar. read more

Despite it looking kinda sketchy and you probably don't want to know how the food is prepared, I really like this place! I've never been a fan of nachos to begin with so while everyone else who has had it here loves it, I'm ambivalent. However, everything else I've tried here is DELICIOUS! I prefer to come here around noon so I don't have to suffer in this dimly lit and over-packed bar at night. If it were closer to where I live, I'd definitely come here more often! read more

This place is a great grungy/dive bar. It's food is plentiful and cheap, and it's beer selection is... er.... well it's OK... Just stick to the food, and the milkshakes. I actually love going here for lunch, of all things. There are better drinky bars nearby but the nachos, fajitas, burritos and enchiladas are all super tasty and worth going to. read more

I love Sneaky Dee's! HUGE meals - I recommend sharing. Excellent daily specials and good music. A great place to go just for drinks too especially if you're in a big party. read more

This is my fiance's favorite restaurant in Toronto, and although I find that pretty much everything on the menu tastes the same, everything is good, so I humor him and we eat here on a very frequent basis. Great for brunch, dinner, late night snacks, anything. Not authentic Mexican, it's very Tex Mex. Prices are decent, not exorbitant but not cheap either. TONS of vegetarian and vegan options. The nachos and home fries are our favorite! read more

Came here for the nachos as I heard they were fantastic and they did not disappoint - they are nothing short of amazing. One of the few places where you actually wish they have you more chips than toppings. Went for the 'Kings Crown' and the heap of guacamole went a long way. A little light on the beef side but with so much toppings, it really didn't matter. You can easily make it a meal for 2 with just one order. I can't wait to go back and suspect I won't be able to order anything beside the nachos. Definitely a Toronto staple. Try and get a booth. read more

Sneaky Dee's has become my local hangout, and it feels just right. Worn down eneough to not feel bad spilling a pitcher on the floor, or dropping nachos on yourself, servers are amazing, food is good eneough (kings crown nachos being top dog) Wednesday nights, 2 75 domestics, and a phenomenal dance party up stairs, always leaves me stunned. The bouncers can be the biggest pricks, but some of them are nice. Overall this is a must for any downtown party goers. If you get bored here, go to the dogs bollocks for some laid back cheap pitchers...but please god avoid bistro 422 across the street. read more

Here's the thing:Sneaks is sort of a hell hole. I mean this in the best way if that makes sense. It's crowded, loud, young and sketchy. The thing is that the beer and mixed drinks are cheap, the nachos are trashy as hell and nothing is better for a hangover that sneaks has created than their Huevos. Sure you might have to shout to be heard but the staff has been surprisingly attentive even on the weekend. Also, it's sneaks. You know what you're getting into. read more

The food is great, nobody can deny that. Stellar nachos, awesome hot sauces. However, we got bad service two nights in a row. The first night, the bouncer was rude, and the server treated me like an idiot for daring to ask if they had a cocktail menu (sorry, most places do, it's not that crazy of a request!). The second night, our server virtually ignored us while giving other tables near us acceptable service. Our drinks were empty for a long time before we managed to finally flag him down. He seemed to keep walking by us as if we didn't exist, didn't even check to make sure our food was tasting fine. I would go back because the food was just that good. It's a neat bar, and I know it's a Toronto favourite. Maybe that's why the service has slipped - they know people will come regardless. Still, service that atrocious isn't acceptable. Don't expect too much from the staff. read more

Amazing french toast!! Best brunch in Toronto. College atmosphere (dive bar). Great!!! read more

Sneaky Dee's - Bar area - Tex-Mex Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Visited Sneaky Dee's for the first time last night and not really knowing what to expect I have to say my wife and I had an awesome experience! The food was amazing highly recommend the Kings Crown Nachos. Our server and the owner went above and beyond. I personally like the décor casual and comfortable it makes it a stand out in that neighborhood. All the staff were great and its nice to know that level of customer service still exists in this world. We will be back read more

At first I was a bit disappointed that there was no coat check. Having a winter sports jacket on can really ruin the dancing and whatever conversations you want to strike up. There's ample room for dumping your jacket though by the stage/dance floor. The night I went, The Coast and The Bicycles were playing there and they were a good contrast. You could feel the people dancing through the floor heh. As everyone else is saying, yep it's college kids for the most part. A few hipsters too. Cheap-ish beer. I usually don't order Alexandar Keith's but it was $4. Not bad, I've paid $5+ at other places for similar beers. read more

Been here a few times for food. I usually skip the line and head to Crown and Tiger for late drinks. Really good Tex-Mex menu with lots of choices and reasonable prices. Our server was super friendly and personable. I'll be back for sure. My ONLY complaint is that I ordered a bottle of beer and it arrived kind of flat, as though it had been sitting in the fridge with the cap off for a while. Awh well, still a good place to go! read more

I heard this place is number 1 nachos in Toronto. They were amazing, especially the amount of guacamole they give. But the food that surprized me the most were there burritos and quesadillas. They were massive enough to get 2 people pretty much full! Would definitely come back here again. read more
