Cute little Cafe : ) This place is really adorable and serves pretty good food. A guy took me here on a date and I have to say I had such a great experience with the ambiance and the food that I came back and took my roommate, my good friend from out of town and my two sisters haha It's a really artsy style cafe with artsy fartsy servers livening up the place with their cool personalities. The cafe is pretty small so it'd be hard to accommodate a large group of people but if the restaurant gets crowded, don't worry there are three floors just in case. It's very laid-back and friendly, and just a cool restaurant to visit. I came here and ordered mainly the pastas, burgers, and the cakes. The sauces for the pastas are really yummy (I would recommend the penne pastas). I had a burger two times in a row because it's just so darn delicious : p It comes with a refreshing house salad which is undoubtedly one of the best salads I've had in my life and I have to say it's tossed with pieces of bell peppers in them...I hate bell peppers but 7 West Cafe makes it work! You also have the option of adding aged cheese for $3 more which I said "what the hey, why not" and it made the burger 100x more delicious : ) Lastly, don't get me started on the desserts....my roommate ordered a slice of cake, sadly I forgot the name but, I only took half a teaspoon full of the cake (cause I didn't wanna be a moocher) but DAMN it tasted soooo good. I was literally dying in my chair watching her eat the rest of it. : p The environment is relaxed and friendly, the food is OH-SO-DELCIOUS, and the servers are like these cool people you wish were you're friends : p The only reason I gave 7 West Cafe a 4 out of 5 stars was because the prices are pretty expensive which, for a student, isn't the best thing. BUT whenever I do have a bit of extra spending money, I always make sure to come back again : ) read more

What finally propelled me to order food from 7 West Cafe was their $20 bottles of take-out wine during the covid-19 pandemic. We ordered delivery through Doordash. We tried two different pastas and two side salads, I liked them all. Portions are pretty big for the price, especially for the salads. One of the pastas was a bit too salty for me, but I loved the other one. Overall I liked their food. There will be some nights that I will crave it for sure. read more

I went here for a work lunch a few weeks back. I usually love places like this and keep them in my back pocket when I'm looking for a place to eat but I just couldn't fall in love with it. We waited for just under an hour for our mains and it just wasn't worth it (That is pretty much the only thing that would have saved our trip out). The staff was friendly but it just took too long for them to execute a mediocre meal. There really isn't anything wrong here, it's just that I've definitely had MUCH better. read more

I went there twice. The second time was only to confirm if it really was that bad and yes it was. Service was terrible. I waited to be greeted. I waited to be seated. Waited to be given menus and had to wait even longer to have our orders taken. Didn't see my water anywhere in sight after having asked for it se time ago. The staff is not friendly but maybe they are going for some hipster vibe which I don't get as there were only 2 young ladies working there. Asked for a something in my mail to be substituted. She suggested soup as a replacement. When I asked what kind, she said it was canned soup. It definitely was from a tin which I could have had at home. Second round: just don't even ask. I confirm I will not return. read more

It only gets the 3rd star cuz its open 24 hours, that's it. Overpriced standard-fare food in a dark, dingey restaurant with crowded seating. Did I mention it is incredibly over-priced for the lack of originality a joint like this SHOULD have as a downtown eatery? read more

7 West Cafe - Spicy italian sausage penne - Italian Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

To conclude the final chapter of our Guys night out escapade....as always after a night of partying, 7 West is the perfect place to cure your hunger, and to end the night. LIke most places that close around 2am, 7 West NEVER closes, and I consider this a more upscale, more chilled out, easy-on-the-eyes type of cafe. With an extensive menu, there's plenty of food options available. In the past, I've notable had their pesto chicken Pollo, Hummas dip, Nachos, vegetarian pasta, poutine, Dulce leche, banana cake, red velvet cheesecake......etc..... Tonight's craving was their Pita pizza (forgot to mentioned I've had it before) served with their choice of Ms Vickie's chips, or house salad. at $11.25 its affordable, and its delish.....oooozed with cheese indeed!!!! But overall, this place is the GO-TO especially after partying hard in and around the downtown core!! read more

I went here for my birthday breakfast a couple of weeks ago and the experience was sub par. I've been here before and the food has always been just OK. The restaurant is located in an old house just west of Yonge. It's two stories high, and the dining area on the second floor provides a nice view of the street. The decor is simplistic, wood tables and hardwood floors. The breakfast menu is pretty standard, eggs and sausage/bacon, pancakes, french toast, etc. I ordered the breakfast bagel and it was HUGE. I was expecting eggs cheese and ham sandwiched between a bagel. What I got was a huge open faced bagel with egg ham and cheese on each and a huge garden salad. There was just too much food (which I know isn't a complaint, but when you're expecting something simple it leads to disappointment). I could barely finish one bagel and the salad itself didn't leave much to the imagination. The other thing was that from my table, I could see into the kitchen, and was able to watch them prepare my food, which was a little disconcerting. I do have to say though, their one saving grace was when I ordered the mimosa, they brought out the whole mini-champagne bottle, and I'll never complain about too much booze! It's a good spot for brunch if you're in the area, but if you walk down the street to Wish (just east of Yonge), you'll have a much better meal. read more

We went for dinner, and it left me feeling quite unsatisfied. We started with the platter, which was a good size, but was loaded with tomatoes of all varieties, sundried, stewed with goat's cheese, chopped up topped on bread with cheese. The tomato theme continued with my sister's penne arrabiata, where the sausage was merely a side to a too-tomatoey pasta dish. My bacon mushroom burger was dry and under seasoned, though it was loaded with bacon and the bread was wonderfully chewy . My husband's chicken club, which fell apart as soon as he took the toothpick out, was a thick and poorly marinated chicken breast atop thick slices of toast with a few good slices of bacon, and accompanied by Ms. Vickie's salted kettle chips. The dessert is another story- this is something you must have. Their red velvet cake was moist, and evenly layered with a good spread of cream cheese frosting that made me gluttonous. I wouldn't go here again for the food, maybe just the cake... read more

7 West Cafe - The bacon mushroom burger - Italian Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Service was slow and seemingly uninterested. I ordered a burger and paid extra to add cheese which was not actually added on. Don't worry, I still got charged for it though. Speaking of the bill, while the food is very moderately better than your average pub, it's priced like it's a high-end restaurant. The quality and service does not justify the cost. Also, they serve steak fries which while cooked well, are not a type of fry I care much for. I would have much preferred a shoe string or crinkle cut fry instead. read more

I went to 7 West Cafe with a friend, at her recommendation, and found it absolutely... average. I use my "patented" 5-factor rating system when leaving Yelp reviews. In no particular order: 1. Quality of food 2. Friendliness of staff 3. Speed of service (I expect 15-20 minutes. Faster than that, and they gain a point. Slower than that, and they lose a point. In that range, and they neither gain, nor lose) 4. Cleanliness of washrooms 5. Decor Where 7 West Cafe really got points was the quality of the food. I ordered the Rosie Ravioli, and it was delectable. The staff was friendly, but that's to be expected. Nothing memorable there. Speed of service: 17 minutes (yep, I sit there with my stopwatch, timing. Really) Cleanliness of washrooms: OK Decor: nothing to write home about, but a bit too dim for my taste. It was hard to read the menu (and I have perfect eyesight - no contacts or glasses). Would I go here again? Yep. read more

Very decent. Cool downtown atmosphere. Nice and friendly staff. Food tasted fresh. We both had breakfast style sandwiches. The bagel one was way too cheesy but some may love that. Going to be a short review since we were in and out but I'd come back for sure. Menu seemed nice and items were all fresh. read more

OK - this is THE place in Toronto .... from 2am onwards .... to get a full meal, chill and catch up with folks coming off of their fun nights out, or just finishing working over at the rail. The menu is fabulous, esepcially for an all nighter spot. 3 levels of fun with closely spaced tables - but somehow at this place you don't mind at all :-). I'm a big fan of the chicken primavera pasta dinner, usually at about 3:30am. Exxxxxxccellllent! These servers really get the crowd too ... a tough job serving that late and ppl coming off of big nights . . . but they are on the ball, friendly and helpful. Enjoy! read more

Flew in from Chicago starving ! This place was great had the grilled cheese with fries at 2AM !

incredible service , delicious food & great music open 24 hours this is definitely a spot I'll come back to.

Open 24/7! They have a fairly big menu, including fresh home-made desserts! The decor is cute and quaint, in an old house. Service is a bit slow. Prices aren't bad. read more

Very classy place that also features 7$ breakfast betwen 7-10 on weekdays. Naturally my partner and I decided to indulge on Friday as I had a late start for work. I saw from the signs that the place was 24 hours and expected a diner vibe but when you walk in the place js very nicely and tastefully decorated. I wouldn't even be skeeved coming out here at 4 am. The menu looks like a nice selection of wraps and sandwiches. The breakfast was very good. Eggs, bacon, homefries and toast! Can't complain. Recommended read more

I haven't eaten at the restaurant, but I've ordered in from here a few times. Their pasta and cakes are phenomenal and I would give 7 West a 5 star rating were it not for the fact that it's a bit overpriced in my opinion. Honestly though their Lasagna was probably one of the best I've ever eaten and could easily have been two meals if it wasn't so delicious (and if I wasn't so greedy). read more

This place has always been one of my favorite spots in Toronto. How can you beat "Open 24/7" This is my 4th time here , always dinner. I have yet to get bad food. Service is questionable. Sometimes you'll get the nicest server and other times, you get a 19yr old that feels far too superior to remember being asked for a fork. +_0 wierdddddddd. Brushetta & the hummus dips are my favorite apps here. I love the pesto pizza. It comes with a lovely salad thats got chicpeas and green peppers :D desert - Carrot Cake -The most delicious organic Carrot Cake EVER!. note: They have a really good early grey tea here. I'm a huge tea drinker so It was a brand I was not familiar with. To my surprise, it was delicious. The aroma was perfect and you can tell it was fresh. No dry gingery aftertaste. The feel of the place is perfect for ANY occassion, so you really cant go wrong. Don't go in here expecting a 5 star type of deal. Its a low key, casual, hip, chilling place with good quality of food. M. read more

I had high expectations for this place as it's been around for decades. Their other restaurants are fantastic, Smith and Wish. This was a disappointment. The prices are reasonable, thank God, because the food was way below par. The pasta dishes were swimming in sauce! I could have easily had 3/4 less sauce on my Rosie Ravioli. The service was poor and awkward. The server had zero sense of timing. We ordered an appetizer and it turns out our mains just sat under heat lamps. The tables on the main floor are too small for 4 grown men. The server asked us if we wanted our bill but hadn't asked if we wanted another drink or dessert. Turns out they didn't have half of the desserts on the menu anyway. All in all, stay away and go to one of the other places. 7 West, please do better. read more

The Good of 7 West: 1. Service. The staff are actually super trendly here (my word for trendy AND friendly). 2. Menu. There is tons of choice here. While not everything is fantastic, you can have breakfast all day long! 3. Atmosphere. Young, trendy crowd - people are here very late at night. The Bad of 7 West: 1. Space. You are crammed into a small section with strangers while you eat your meal and God-forbid you need to go to the bathroom. I suggest holding it in because you will have a hard time not disrupting the people around you. I would honestly eat here more often if it wasn't for my above negative comment. I think it's a great place, I just prefer not to be that close to people while I dine! Go try it out if you're not claustrophobic! read more

7 West Cafe - Can you tell where it is? Very hidden! - Italian Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Open 24/7, this joint is divided into three different and uniquely decorated levels. I ate on the main floor, which had an exposed brick wall and lots of wood, so it's quite a nice atmosphere. Unfortunately I sat at a table with pews as chairs and they were not comfortable. My dining mate and I were shifting non-stop and if we sat properly, we were too far apart to converse. I had the steak philly with a side salad. It was nothing to wrote home about. Very standard, if not a little overpriced. The vanilla chocolate cake was dry and flavourless, so I'd recommend trying a different dessert. The service was typical. They don't do out of their way to make you feel valued or special. In a pinch, I might go back, but it's not worth being a destination point. read more

I'm surprised to see this place rated 3.5 stars on almost 300 reviews because the food is atrocious. On my first visit a while back I recall ordering a pasta dish that resembled more of a soup; it was drenched in sauce. Now, about my most recent visit that made me write this review. I needed some late night food, had limited options and was craving some mac and cheese, so I thought why not give 7 West a try. Ordered a mac and cheese for takeout, and to be absolutely fair, I'd rather eat Kraft Dinner, just look at the picture here. And no, I didn't purposefully take the picture mid-meal to try to make it look worse - it can't be, it really tastes just as bad as it looks. Wow read more

Yum! We came specifically for the Dulce de Leche cheesecake and coffee "bowls" (like The Gilmore Girls might have), and 7 West delivered. The cheesecake was delicious, and it was a big piece. But for $9, it better be! Unfortunately we didn't think this cheesecake was better than Carole's Cheesecake, which is $7 a slice. But it is probably one of the best cheesecakes you can find in Toronto, if you are determined to indulge. The atmosphere was great. We went around 9:30 on a Sunday, and had the second floor to ourselves for a while. The music was a bit too loud, so that was sort of intrusive. But we could still hear each other. Thy have free WiFi, which is great--you just have to ask for the password. I love that it is open 24/7, so you don't have to think about it, but you can just show up. We also had plain coffee, which was fine for plain coffee, and the Large hot chocolate, which was truly large. It was like a small bowl. It arrived tepid, however, which was disappointing, but it was still fine. In conclusion, it's a great place to go to for a late-night bit of indulgence, if you just want somewhere to hang out, chat, and nibble on something. read more

I've ordered food from 7 west cafe twice from foodora, so this review will be based solely on the food quality and takeaway service. My order both times was for approximately 10-12 people during lunch time on a week day. We placed the order at 9:30am both times, selecting a delivery time of 12pm. FOOD: While other people have tried the pasta and pizza and both found them tasty, I tried the tuna melt, house salad, and veggie burger with bacon on top. All foods I tried were more on the dry side - they all could have used more sauce. I did like the hint of spice in the tuna melt, but didn't like how mushy the burger was as it would stick to the roof of your mouth. SERVICE: Service was great the first time we ordered. Food was warm, came on time, and added funny messages to each of the dishes. So we decided to order from here again, which was a huge mistake. The food arrived on time the second time around, but the quality was awful. We ordered 4 cans of pop, but they never made it in the takeaway bag and we never received it. Part of our order included 2 veggie burgers and 2 side house salads, but we received 3 veggie burgers, 1 side house salad, and a closed empty container (Note: these containers are clear so it is very easy to see if there's food in it or not). Go figure. To add to the mix, we also requested separate ketchup and mayonnaise on the side, but they mixed it together in one container. Overall, I don't think we will be ordering from here based on our last experience. I'm not quite sure how quality standards were missed by that much, but it's not a chance i'm willing to take again. read more

A co-worker recommend me this place and I finally tried it. I ordered the Montreal smoked meat sandwiches. Wow, it was the best sandwiches I had ever tried. It was so delicious and I actually came back for the 2nd round and tried the Philly beef sandwiches. Cheese melted inside the sandwiches and it mixed with mushrooms inside. Perfect combination! I would definitely recommend this place to anyone. One thing the place is a bit dark inside and crowded. read more

Absolute worse customer service. Do not go here!!! We dealt with Jenna at the front she was very rude. Will be following up

That give me a choice when I have no idea of where i shall have breakfast . It opens 24H , that's great for me such as a girl lazy to cook. The two young girls work there are nice, friendly.

This place has a relaxed, casual vibe, environment was very clean and sanitary. Food was perfect, I ordered Salmon pasta and it was palatable. The service was pretty good, our waitress gave us good recommendations and gave us special cocktails, she also said that if we don't like it she'll make another cocktail for us until we like it lol, she is very nice anyway. The price was not too expensive, 25-35 per person, this price for the restaurant like this is acceptable. Would definitely come back! read more

Quaint, speedy, dark & cozy, broad menu - great versatile local choice 24 hours a day!

I ate here twice, because it was near my hotel: once for breakfast, and, a few days later, for a late-ish lunch. The egg platter -- what they call the "Lucky Seven" -- was excellent. The young waiter seemed a little rattled -- I had to get his attention a few times for coffee refills and such -- but he was very nice about getting me the special (CAD 7), which ended at 10.00 am. (I came in just before 10, but wasn't waited on for a bit.) For the lunch, my friend and I were seated upstairs. The service was prompt and efficient, and my veggie-burger platter was topnotch. read more

When you walk in you instantly feel like you're in an old house. It's quite dark and cozy here. Go upstairs for a warmer and more spacious spot. Each floor has a different menu apparently. I loved their butternut squash soup and their pesto pizza. They're open 27/4 and the majority of staff are warm and friendly. read more
