Breakfast burrrito.. everything was cold except the tortilla.. $13 plus tax and tip

Eric R.

I know it's the airport and expect simple things like breakfast to be expensive, but where is the quality?! $13 plus tax and tip for a breakfast burrito.. no coffee.. Burrito looked good when it came, only problem was it was cold inside, home fries were cold.. burrito didn't even taste good.. probably wouldn't taste good even if it was warm.. McDonald's breakfast burrito tastes much much better in fla My company had ham and toast, ham was cold..

The service was good. You place your order on an iPad and it is brought out to you. The Caesar salad is mediocre and they do not use fresh parmesan. One of their mottos is fresh ingredients. I opted to add chicken for an additional $5.00. The chicken was not even warm. It had a lot of chewy tendon-y pieces I did not eat. The only flavour from the sea breeze was that of the vodka. Skip this as a drink.

Beet salad and a side of veggies and hummus that weren't as good or fresh

Don't eat here. It's not cheap and they ship in the food from another part of the airport and warm it up for you. The breakfast burrito was not bad but the sides (potatoes and bacon) were cold. Scrambled eggs were wet, cold, undercooked and needed several minutes of additional reheating by the "chef". Hard pass. read more

We were trying to decide where to eat in Terminal 3 and settled on this place. We were pleasantly surprised, considering the terrible reviews. My husband had the Italian sandwich and I had the pork sandwich. Both were very flavorful and the kettle chips on the side were tasty. Airport food is what it is but I would come back here at YYZ for sure. read more

Okay. For starters, this is airport food. (Also to keep in mind, Americans should remember they will probably be paying an extra charge on their cards for an international transaction.) However, it is not nearly as fast as airport food should be. The set up is cool such that everyone is playing on iPads, surfing the Internet, and ordering via the remote station at the table (the iPads). But it's inconvenient for bringing luggage as a lot of it is comprised of really large bar/barstool seating. And of course, the food is all pretty expensive. One of my friends did order a pastry that they had run out of (ordering on the iPad meant that no one told him before he paid though), so a waiter came a good 15-20 minutes later to let us know that they didn't have the pastry and would happily give him something of comparable (even slightly higher) value. They did refund his money when asked, but the overall time before they notified him that his food would not be coming, brought the two beers we did order, and the time to come back with a receipt showing the refund was ridiculous. Probably an hour long meal for two beers and a nonexistent pastry. My expectations weren't high to begin with. It wasn't horrible, but it definitely wasn't pleasant. -- and none of those things are something you want to say. read more

Let me start off by saying- I did not eat anything. I had some time to kill, so I wanted to get some Drinks. Came and sat my self down, I realized that you had to order on the iPad. Maybe that's something they should have sign for- I prefer a glass of wine, and the service was almost immediate. I got the cheapest merlot it was $9 obv not happy hour prices in America, but I'm at an airport so whatever. What I enjoyed the most was the customer service- it was apparent that the employees enjoyed each other's company and cared for their customers. I watched them Take turns to make sure everyone's orders were delivered on time, and customized to the customers request. I can't say much about the quality of the food, but I would be willing to come back here again to try their food. read more

I should've checked the reviews first. I ordered the chicken tacos. It's supposed to be soft tacos. They grilled the tacos so it was harder than not. It's not quite a tostados though. But whatever I thought. Then I buy into the chicken...I get that people don't want to have raw uncooked chicken, but this was really really cooked. It was tough to be exact. Sigh. Yes it's airport food, but I should've just gotten a sandwich for much cheaper. Funny thing is the soft drink is refilled I was told, so they took away my glass with the promise they'd come back. Still waiting for that refill. read more

They have a nice beet salad available in the to-go section! And lots of space to charge your phone or laptop while getting food. Not the best selection of food here, but it's a nice environment to sit and get work done instead of waiting at your gate. Not much in terms of vegan/vegetarian options, but the to-go area has got some good snacks! read more

This is a restaurant/bar where you order and pay electronically from your seat and the meal is then brought to you. I ordered a meal and glass of wine, and 30 minutes later I had not received anything. So, I approached the waitress who told me to ask the bartender, who insisted they had not received my order. I was OK with that, but this isn't my first rodeo so I knew I would likely see a bill on my credit card statement even though the kitchen said they had not received my order. So I told them all of this and again they insisted because "they had not received my order electronically" so my order must never have gotten through, so I would not be charged. Lo and behold a month later my credit card bill shows up with the meal order from Vinifera. This is proof positive that everything is fine until something screws up and then, you can be guaranteed, that you will get the short end of the stick. Moral of the story is there is a disconnect in their ordering system. read more

Don't eat here. The food is good but there is a server working here who is aggressive, abusive and quite frankly - should not be employed in an airport from a security stand point. My husband and I ate at Vinifera in November 2015 and while our server and the manager made every attempt to apologize profusely for their colleague's behaviour - its left a lasting mark. The server in question loudly indicated that we were just passengers and not customers, therefore should not expect customer service. She called us 'crazy', threatened to call security on us, and stormed off three times when her behaviour was being addressed. To be clear - we didn't complain about the food, our server was great and this person provoked an issue so aggressively that its just not worth it to ever go back here. read more

My party of four visited during Taste of Oakville, and in hindsight, the evening foreshadowed…read moreitself early -- the restaurant's website was down with a 404 error, and we kept finding two different addresses (one apparently their old location). We eventually found it. Upon arrival, the door swung open and struck a seated guest -- a sign of just how small the space is. The restaurant was full except for one four-top (clearly ours), and we stood awkwardly in the entrance -- which is essentially inside the dining room -- waiting to be acknowledged. When greeted, we were asked if we had a reservation. We said yes. "Table for eight?" we were asked, which felt impossible given the size of the room. We clarified four, and were pointed to the only open table. No name was requested; we realistically could have just walked in and taken it. The space is starkly lit with aggressive bright white lighting that feels more clinical than cozy. The artwork is interesting and gives a gallery-like feel -- it seems the restaurant is aiming for a downtown Toronto wine bar aesthetic, but it doesn't quite land. Our table was missing water glasses, and the stemware was mismatched -- not in an intentional, charming way, but more in a "we ran out" way. Once seated, we weren't acknowledged or offered water for nearly 20 minutes. Not rushing guests is one thing; leaving them feeling forgotten is another. When our server finally arrived, the service set the tone for the evening. One glass of water was poured before he realized another was missing. He disappeared, returned with a glass, inspected it mid-pour, then walked away again (dirty glass). After several more trips and long gaps, everyone eventually received water -- about 15 minutes later. He was polite and friendly, just clearly untrained. He shared that the owner is also the sommelier, cook, and server, and that he liked working there because he wasn't expected to know much about wine -- an interesting admission for a wine bar. The owner greeted us warmly but asked only one guest about wine preferences -- ironically the only non-wine drinker at the table. The concept appeared to be sommelier-led, though this was never explained. If that is the intention, engaging the entire table is essential. That said, the wines themselves were enjoyable; the service surrounding them was not. The Taste of Oakville menu promised three curated 3-oz pours paired with a charcuterie board for two. The pours arrived unevenly and slowly, with little explanation of the pairings. The charcuterie boards were plain and inconsistent between tables despite containing similar items -- basic fruit, crostini, simple cured meats, small portions of brie, and two slices of truffle cheese. No crackers, spreads, or thoughtful touches elevated the experience, and presentation varied noticeably. Our second wine pour didn't arrive until our mains, and service moved so slowly we requested a wine list to order a bottle. We were told there is no wine list -- "we're not that kind of restaurant." Instead, all reds are $80 and all whites $70, and the owner selects the bottle for you after asking only red or white. The concept might work if explained upfront; without context, it was confusing. At one point, noticing my empty glass, our server poured me a random red -- which turned out to be the same wine as our first pour -- and then left without serving anyone else. We had to remind staff we were still waiting for our second curated pour. Nothing about the experience felt curated. The most surprising moment of the night came when our mains arrived. As we lifted our appetizer plates -- still holding olive pits, fruit rinds, and crumbs -- the servers told us not to worry about clearing them and proceeded to place our main dishes directly on top of the used plates. I'm still shocked. I wouldn't do that at home, let alone expect it at a Lakeshore, or quite frankly, any restaurant. Two of us ordered the tagliatelle, which was tasty but contained only two small pieces of short rib -- and was difficult to enjoy while staring at discarded rinds beneath the plate. The other two ordered brisket sliders: two sliders, no sides. They tasted good but left diners hungry. One guest joked they kept thinking the fruit rinds were fries -- unfortunately accurate. We tried to make the best of the evening, but it never delivered the cozy wine-and-charcuterie experience we had anticipated -- dim lighting, thoughtful pairings, something special. After finishing our meal, we requested our bills and reminded staff we were still waiting for the third curated pour. We were told "five minutes." Those five minutes never came. Eventually, wanting simply to leave, we paid a single combined bill and sorted it out ourselves. Dinner for four totaled $460. This was not the boutique Lakeshore dining experience we expected, and ultimately, it was deeply disappointing.

It's not one of those places where everyone is yelling over each other and you leave with a headache. You can actually have a conversation without saying, "Huh?" every five seconds. The food was absolutely delicious, and the portions were great. They also take allergies seriously, which I really appreciate. My sister is sensitive to spices (poor thing ). Me? I'm the type who would probably ask for extra hot sauce on hot sauce. We were seated right away, and our waitress, Kaily (I really hope I got her name right!), came over before we even had a chance to open the drink menu. She was super sweet, friendly, and had such a welcoming smile. Then... poof! Like Tinker Bell flew by and borrowed her for another mission, she disappeared into the restaurant. She got so busy with other tables that we had to wait about 20 minutes and finally asked another staff member to let her know we were ready to order. Honestly, I was about to send out a missing person's report. Then the food decided to take the scenic route to our table. Personally, I don't mind waiting. Maybe I've traveled to Europe one too many times, but I've learned that a good meal is an experience, not a race. If I'm going out to eat, I'm there to relax and enjoy it. My sister, however, wasn't feeling well and was hoping the food would arrive a little faster, so she wasn't exactly sharing my Zen attitude. Was the wait worth it? Absolutely! I had the steak with mushrooms and a side salad, and it was cooked perfectly. My sister had the salmon with mashed potatoes, asparagus, and a salad, and she loved hers too. I also ordered the Virgin Passion Fruit Mojito. Let's just say... we weren't meant to be. Next time I'll stick with the classic virgin mojito because sometimes you don't need to reinvent a perfectly good wheel. Overall, great food, generous portions, a relaxing atmosphere, and staff who genuinely care about allergies. A tiny improvement in the timing of the service, and this place is an easy 5 stars in my book.

Our favourites were the scallops, short ribs, and torched salmon sushi. For dessert we just tried the soft serve ice cream. The service and quality was top notch at its price point. Would visit again!

Ate breakfast here before trip to Cancun. Food was excellent , it came promptly after ordering on the IPad and was served with a smile by Mariah Williams. Who would think that I would have any further interaction with this lovely girl after leaving for my flight. It wasn't until I reached Cancun I realized I left my tablet on the table we ate breakfast. I was devastated as had just purchased it. I logged a report with Lost & Found online at Pearson but held out no hope. A day later I was contacted by Mariah Williams via messenger to say she had found my tablet! Wow!! In this day and age it is very rare and extremely refreshing to find such honesty and integrity. She took responsibility to find me herself and offered to even drop the tablet off to me. Wow! Wow! Wow! Now that's service ! Because of timetables we decided it would be easiest for her to arrange it be dropped off at lost n found. She gave it to her manager Stew Cowan who took it there that very day. Even when I contacted her again to confirm it had been dropped off, (as Lost & Found had not sent me a notification they had received it) she followed up with her manager and confirmed back to me. Nothing was too much trouble. I have since been reunited with my tablet all thanks to this lovely girl whose thoughtfulness and sincerity have exceeded any expectations one would have of a stranger. I am beyond grateful and cannot recommend this restaurant more highly, for this is a glowing example of staff integrity and honesty at its best. Thank you Mariah Williams ! read more

Our flight to Dublin got delayed. So me and my girlfriends started to have a few drinks and we saw these wine sample sets. Litte did we know we were in for a treat. The bartender, named Gurbir, he goes by Gubs was so well knowledged about the wines and selected out a fantastic variety of wines to taste! He also was very well educated on his wines and the origin of even the species and genus of wine. He made our evening! He selected out so much for us, we had the sampler set 3 times! Funny thing he said he isn't much of a drinker in general. I took that with a pinch of salt. This young gentleman made our evening. It was like I was getting a crash course on wine and which food it pairs with, and how you get the blush colour for the Rose wine, to difference between unoaked and oaked Chardonnay, so much more. It was like having a guide walk you through the wines. It shows when someone takes interest in there work, so hats off to you sir! Thanks again! At least something good came out of the delay! read more

My name is Ethen Hunt, this was my first trip to Canada. I left my hotel early for a 09.05 flight back to London (UK) I just wanted some breakfast when Jocelyn came to me and said " can i help you " like most of my trip the people in service jobs are so professional and polite. Jocelyn was just that and more. I didn't know that I could check my flight and order my breakfast from the iPads on the desk. What a great idea I had the bacon and eggs and that was perfect, and to back up the great idea a professional polite smiling young lady you help with with the menu and was great to talk too. I would absolutely recommend Vinifera to all and I have done .. even on the flight back I was telling a lady and guy in my row how amazing the service and the product is. As for Jocelyn a lovely Indian lady who I would love to have in my business as she is a true professional and ambasdor for Vinifera. So many can learn from Jocelyn way and customer service .. 5 stars from me. read more

I would highly recommend this location to anyone traveling within terminal 3 YYZ. I had exceptional service. As I was in a rush fo reach my flight my waitress mariah came by and helped me efficiently and timely. I got my entire order to go with all modifications. It's different ordering from a system that's not the traditional service but mariah made it such an amazing blend of experience of modern fo traditional and all in a quick moment- enjoyed the meal very much- quality of food was impeccable and amazing that it's all made it such a small place. Thanks to Ricardo and Mariah for helping with my experience at vinifera be that much better read more

My god was I ever just astonished with the amazing service and food I received from this location. These iPad restaurants are very open concept and you can have direct contact with not only your server but the cooks too. Its amazing! The Chef Riccardo and server Mariah had so much energy and gave a lonely flight and travel experience a fun twist. Being able to chat and feel less of a customer and more of a friend really makes a difference in a restaurant. I wish all places were like this and made it so welcoming. I had ate the breakfast flat bread and it was amazing! I loved it so thanks you to this amazing team! read more

First time visiting the Pearson airport and my experience was out of this world. I was very much impressed with the quality of food I received today and couldn't believe how timely the service was. Mariah, spent so much time with my family giving us recommendations and her favourite suggestions and entertained us during such a stressful travelling experience with kids. I can't believe how amazing the travel experience has been made from service to food.thank you again Mariah read more

Yesterday I was travelling for work and stopped by the Vinifera restaurant for a quick meal prior to boarding. I was truly amazed and delighted to have been served by Mariah. I ordered a breakfast burrito cooked with perfection. I spoke with Mariah who had mentioned it was cooked by Riccardo. I believe in spreading positivity with reviews. Kudos to them! read more

I was flying out to Cuba with my bestfriend on Friday August 31st and our server, Maggie, was the absolute biggest help. She made us feel welcomed, gave us accurate information on the food (which was super important as I have a weak stomach). She really made my experience like no other. Looking forward to seeing her everytime I travel! read more

I started off at Acer with my friend where Shanielle helped us out but I seen someone with flatbread so I came over to Vinifera where Mariah helped me. She was amazing, I thought I would have to order a big meal for my son but she recommended the kids breakfast, which was the perfect amount of food for him. So thank you to both girls read more

I came here on August 31, 2018 on my way to Cayo Coco, Cuba with my friend. I had some technical difficulties with the machine but Maggie was very helpful and pleasant. I've been to many restaurants around the airport but I have never received such great service like I did from Maggie from Vinifera. I will definitely be back! read more
