Salt & Steak offers a cozy, modern atmosphere that makes it a comfortable spot for a nice meal. The…read moreservice was good--friendly and attentive throughout our visit. The steak was tender and cooked well, and it came with condiments like jus and steak sauce, which added to the experience. However, the steak itself could have used a bit more seasoning and a stronger smoky flavor to really elevate it. Overall, it was an enjoyable dining experience with room for improvement in flavor depth.

I personally did not enjoy any part of this dining experience. We had made a reservation which…read moreabsolutely was not needed because the place was dead inside. the walls were so dirty so it was a bit off putting to be eating beside old sauce / dead bugs. service was absolutely non existent. The two ladies were just talking off on the side and texting on their phone all in plain sight. I understand there may be downtime in any shift but it lowers the vibe of the dining experience and also our soft drinks took forever to come to our table. just a Coke and just a sprite - also no offer for refills or asking if we wanted other drinks. the food itself took a LONG time to come out - only two entrees, no appetizers or fancy platters. once the food did come out I was surprised that everything was SO salty. also weird it's auto served with ketchup and bbq sauce. My steak had a lot of gristle on it and typically when the waitress would check in how things were I'd either mention it or they would apologize for the cut - but neither of the servers came by. I also didn't want to risk waiting another half hour for mediocre food and service. a family came in and they were seated right near us even though the restaurant was empty so that was also weird seating. when our meals were over and plates taken away eventually, we waited again for 10 minutes for someone to come by so we could get our bill. it's a weird layout because it's like the restaurant wants to be boujie but the service and food just don't meet the criteria. Needless to say it was not a good birthday dinner and I wouldn't recommend it.

Just stuck with some tried and true favourites, but came with some friends who hadn't tried it before. The huge slab of piping hot bread definitely raised their eyebrows just as it had done for us when we came in previously. I suggested we all share a small order of the Mixed Plate appetizer, so we did that and there was still plenty left over for me to bring home. My favourite dip in the Mixed Plate is the Babaghannush. I love it so much that I decided to have a separate order of Babaghannush as my main entree! My daughter ordered her beloved Cheese Lovers Pide again, while our friends ordered their own Cheese Lovers Pide as well as a Greek Salad and an order of the Lamb Chops. This is a great place to introduce people to Turkish food.

The street-side entrance is pretty sketchy-looking and we totally went by the place the first time even though we were looking for it because of how barricaded-up it looked. But once you get inside, it's very cosy. There's a huge electronic menu right behind where you order, which is great. I don't have to dquint to read everything! For sure a small place, they have quite a bit of selection for food. The banh mi comes as just a sandwich or as a meal with spring rolls and a can of pop. I got the garlic beef one which was amazing. They are very generous with the meat, mine had at least 4 or 5 whole slices throughout. My boyfriend had the deluxe classic which was also delicious and huge. Takes me at least 3 bites to cover the width of the banh mi to try all the toppings! I definitely want to go again and try the lemongrass options next time.

Luckily we got seated after a short 10 minute wait - but I definitely think reservations are recommended for this spot. It got busier the longer we were there, and I didn't see many open tables available. Our server was super friendly and talkative. She gave us some great menu recommendations. We took advantage of their Happy Hour for apps and started with the Hot Chicken & Pickles, and the Truffle Fries. Both are good, however the chicken bites are thighs instead of breast, which isn't usually my fav. For mains, I got the Butternut Squash Ravioli with Prawns. My bf got the Truffle Parmesan Chicken. We both really enjoyed our meals. The raviolis were delicious! My bf normally isn't a fan of chicken breast, but he said this one was great. He also raved about the truffle mushroom cream sauce in the dish. We skipped desserts because we were too full, but there were multiple that I wanted to try - next time! The menu has a lot of different options for different palates and moods. I would definitely eat here again!

Delicious meats, AMAZING falafel (seriously, watching them make them and hearing them sizzle is enough to cause a flash flood from the drool!), fantastic spices and sauces, the oh so hefty wraps, and wonderful customer service. Only a few employees, which we assume are Abdul himself and family/friends, and they're always smiling ear to ear when we come in. It feels like coming home to your parents' for dinner, and they stuff you up with too much goodness! You can taste the love in each wrap and dish, clearly this man is the embodiment of the modern Canadian dream. Fantastic food from far off lands, but it feels more like home than anything else. It is a shame about all the previous negative entries here, as perhaps Abdul was in a lull or they had bad luck on their visits, and I hope they will come back again to see the excellence that is Abdul's BBQ. I'm sure they will have their minds changed! With much love from Grange Street, Brett & Levi

The main entrance has several steps. Much easier to enter from the "side" entrance which doesn't have steps. The inside is nice and large. Great view of the street. About half the seating area is raised by a few steps. Staff are friendly and helpful. No complaints. They have typical dishes such as kebabs and donairs, as well as "traditional" meal section. I tried the roast lamb. It was pretty decent. Some may consider it a bit bland, but I would say it reminds me of home cooking. Served with salad, rice, and pita. My buddy tried the sac tava (meat stir fry) and said it was really delicious. Guess I'll try that next time. Pricing is reasonable, and quality is decent. I'd come back again. Recommended.

Mantu - very good but expensive for 4 dumplings 2, Chicken Shami Kebab - Comes with super soft buttery naan bread, Melt in the mouth kebabs and possibly the best kebab of my life. My son loved it and primarily ate most of it. 3. Uzbeki Palaw - Very good but the rice to meat ratio could be disappointing. 4. One cocktail and it was very good, very ethnically inspired. Everything was amazing. Portion sizes are small and we finished everything. Our server was so warm and advised visiting during brunch hours the next time to enjoy more kebabs given we likes it the best. Other tips! 1. Service is fairly quick. We were in and out within the hour. 2. There is street parking but finding a spot may still be challenging at any point. There is parking in the building but when we visited, the entrance to it was not working. 3. Reservations are highly recommended for weekends to be seated inside which is very chic and upscale. 4. Menu is pretty kid friendly food and none of the food was remotely spicy.
