I'll be honest, the restaurant looked like it used to be an insurance office, and then switched a few things around to make it look like a restaurant. Honestly, once the food came none of that mattered. It was soo good. I had eggs with bacon and home fries. I never had home fries like that before. The server told me they season them with a bag of spices, including curry. Next time I come to Toronto, I'll pass by here again. Worth the trip.

They assisted in getting a high chair for my baby and helping me find seating while pushing a stroller which helped greatly. The presentation of food was also amazing. I just found both my hot drink and food I ordered lacking in flavor and just average. I ordered the hojicha latte and the Wanoka omurice. Both I could barely taste anything and I know hojicha should be a rich, earthy/toasty/nutty green tea flavor but I couldn't taste any of it, just mostly steamed milk. However my friend really enjoyed her matcha latte so maybe some drinks are better than others or dependent on who makes it. The omurice also was average, the texture/consistency was great but just lacking in flavor. I also ordered a tuna onigiri that also was lacking in flavor and nothing special. However, I did find their desserts to be really great. Found their tofu cream cheese cake and green tea chiffon cake really delicious. Their prices also were a bit overpriced. Perhaps it's best to go to this place for drinks and dessert and skip out on their food.

Sisters & Co Markham is a chic diner brunch spot with more premium pricing than your usual diner,…read morespecializing in benedicts and various brunch items with Asian flares to them. It's extremely popular (always full) but the tables move quite quickly, so yes - while you most likely need to stay in line if you come during the weekends, you don't have to wait for long if you're on a cute brunch date for two. A few pros and cons about this place: Cons: 1) ordered the bulgogi benedict, and to be fair, it was not very impressive. While the English muffins underneath were toasted to perfection - crispy and soft, I was not impressed by the bulgogi/benedict. The thing about hollandaise sauce is that it's powerful, rich and creamy. What goes well with it needs to add another dimension of powerful flavour profiles, which is why it's usually paired with smoked proteins (smoked salmon, peameal bacon, pulled pork etc). While I love Bulgogi, it's usually sweet, refreshing that goes well with flavour neutral side such as plain rice (or bread, fries). When I had my Bennies, I could barely taste any of the bulgogi and it was a disappointment to me (it just tasted like an egg on an English muffin). 2) the size is quite small for its price (CAD 22). If you think the two bennies as one sandwich, it'd be a small English muffin. That's very pricy. Pros: 1) the "spicy" home fries were extremely well done. The flavour profiles were well delivered, with caramelized onions and pepper pieces mixed in. I had a great time enjoying them. 2) I enjoyed the drip coffee quite a bit. It was very fresh and the beans they used had a nice balance of acidity and bitterness. Very satisfying. 3) the service was superb. I really really appreciated my servers (Gabriella and Alan). They were extremely efficient while being attentive and friendly. I gauge that the servers are the primary reason why the restaurant, tho being extremely popular, still has a steady speed to move the lines and customers. Extremely impressive comparing to all other diners I've been to when it comes to service. Because of the servers and the home fries, I'd give it a four stars while the food/pricing need some works. I may come back sometime soon to try other items on the menu.

Stopped by for brunch at Next Door, located in the heart of Main St. Unionville. The restaurant is…read moreunique in a sense where it's situated in the historical Unionville Planing Mill. Was seated in their dinning hall ( the other side is more of a bar) and ordered a brunch tower for two. The tower includes their signature malaysian scrambled eggs, chorizo sausage, bacon, Brussel sprouts, toast with buttermilk pancakes stacked at top of the tower. The tower was beautifully presented and what I love most about the tower is their pancakes. Truly fluffy and light with whipped cream on top of it. Overall, service was efficient and attentive, often checked on and refilling water. On top of that, the restaurant has great decor and parking is provided in the back of the restaurant. Its considered on a slightly higher end for brunch ($20-30 range), but it was truly an amazing experience. They also have daily promos so worth checking out for dinner and late night deals.

Came with…read moremy parents to see what the hype is about (a few years after the hype has died down, but oh well). I must say that I do understand why people are drawn to the restaurant - it is very pretty and makes for wonderful pictures! This includes the lovely visuals of the food, which is beautifully presented and extremely photogenic. The taste of the food, although quite acceptable, fell just a bit short of its looks. The variety of colours was not matched with a variety of flavours, and everything was somewhat on the salty and greasy side. That being said, we very much enjoyed the potato hash, pancakes, and French toast. The portion sizes also outdid themselves - if you're coming here for brunch, just be prepared for a long nap in the afternoon! Service was excellent: prompt, helpful, and friendly. The interior is fairly spacious and elegantly decorated. Overall, a pleasant experience even if it's not the most spectacular - and perhaps worth a visit for some based on the aesthetics alone.

Panagios is always busy with a steady stream of diners on weekends. I had heard about the place…read morebefore, plus judging from the lineups it looks like it'd be a decent breakfast spot to try out if you're looking to try something different? My table ordered an omelette, a burrito, and pancakes along with coffee. Texmex Messy Burrito - Scrambled eggs, although this one was not served as advertised, since it was more like an omelette instead of scrambled eggs. This seemed to disappoint one picky eater at our table who was also upset that the bacon wasn't crispy enough. Inside the burrito was soft non-crispy bacon, green pepper, cheddar cheese, and there was salsa verde drizzled on top, served with lightly salted home fries and fresh fruit (cantaloupe, honeydew and pineapple). Cowboy Omelette - It had ham, onion, green pepper omelette. Served with fresh fruit (cantaloupe, honeydew and pineapple), homefries, and toast. All their omelettes are made with 4 eggs. Surprisingly the potatoes were not salty like other breakfast places. Enjoyable. Pancakes - Pancakes were nice and fluffy buttermilk pancakes dusted with icing sugar and served with syrup. Simple and tasty! My first time there was a pleasant experience. I was happy with the overall atmosphere of the restaurant, the food and the great service from two really hard-working waitresses. Despite special allergy requests, they were so quick with service and accommodating. We all agreed that Panagios serves good quality food that is on par with other brunch options.

Menu is misleading (kids' meals read as bacon plus sausage or ham, but it's actually just one). Eggs were undercooked, then sent back and simply re-cooked instead of replaced. Bacon was burnt, sausages tasted awful, scrambled eggs were clearly boxed, and the hollandaise sauce was inedible. Quality has dropped dramatically -- most of our food went untouched. Very poor all around. Won't be back.

We arrived about 15 minutes later and it was ready in 5 minutes.The restaurant is a hidden gem. It's located at the back of the pharmacy. We decided to eat inside instead of getting our food to go. There is lots of seating in different sections and they play relaxing music. We ordered 2 smash burgers $8.99 and 2 loaded fries $10. The burger was delicious and the loaded fries were a huge portion with sour cream, tomatoes, bacon and cheese. There is a freezer with soda, water, chocolate milk. And they serve breakfast as well. I can't say enough about how friendly the people working there were. The man working there gave us complimentary drinks for being first time customers. I've never had service like this before. He was very grateful for our service. And thanked us for coming. We would definitely be returning to next try the breakfast. I highly recommend this restaurant.

I can imagine it being especially nice in the summer when their outdoor seating is open. That said, it was a Sunday, so it was busy. The indoor acoustics aren't great, making it quite noisy.

When she was clearing our table, she noticed I hadn't finished my spicy shrimp linguine and kindly asked if something was wrong.

One small downside: the hot drinks (at least the latte I ordered) weren't served very hot, which could be improved. The only reason I'd rate it three stars is due to one staff member, a male server who came across as quite rude. When I asked him for a spoon for my pasta, he responded with a visibly annoyed expression, which was honestly off-putting. If I didn't know he was just one of the staff, I probably wouldn't consider coming back
