That's what happened to me and Jamie W. since we didn't get our complimentary croissant when we checked out of our Toronto hotel. There's a cafe within the cafe in the main building, and we decided to partake of the small savoury menu available since a full-fledged meal wasn't our burning desire at that moment. We decided to share the C$14 St. Lawrence Salad, a robust box of mixed greens, apple slices, almonds, and quinoa with the vinaigrette appropriately on the side (photo). It was just the right bite before our long drive back to Detroit. FOOD - 4 stars...fresh ingredients, no complaints AMBIANCE - 4 stars...greenhouse windows, open patio... what more do you want?

Went to IHOP for lunch yesterday. Our waitress, Kelly, gave us exceptional and friendly service…read more She was attentive and quite knowledgeable about the menu. She gave a great food recommendation which was delicious. She also brought us all we needed before we even asked. Will definitely be back for that level of service! 10+ out of 10! A delightful dining experience all around. That said, the restaurant needs to do something about the flies. Maybe invest in some fly traps or something.

I love this new partnership between Applebee's and IHOP in Ajax. Their combined menu offers some…read moregreat choices, whether you're in the mood for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or anything in between. They've got everything covered, including desserts and adult beverages. My meal started with a Classic Combo of Appetizers that included Boneless Wings, Spinach & Artichoke Dip, Chicken Quesadilla, Mozzarella Sticks, and Tortilla Chips. It was all good! Next up was the Applebee's Riblets - button bone ribs in a honey BBQ sauce, served with some really good onion rings. I really liked this dish! A Loaded Buffalo Chicken Omelette was packed with crispy chicken tenders, cheese, and more. This was hefty and delicious! The tasting menu continued with Chicken and Waffles. As good as it was, I was stuffed, and ended up taking home most of it. Dessert was IHOP's Specialty Pancake Trio: Double Blueberry, Tres Leches, and Strawberry Banana. They were all good! I washed it down with some refreshing lemonade. It was a lot of food! I ended up tasting a little of each dish and taking home the rest. I'll definitely come back to try more of their food!

My first Quiznos experience was in Rochester, MN. It had recently opened and a friend of mine took…read moreme there for a toasted sub. It was the greatest thing since, er, sliced bread. I became a fan. At that point, few sub chains toasted their bread. Scrubway (Jennifer P. needs to copyright it, as I use it all the time now) didn't do it. Neither did Mr Sub. When I moved back to the GTA, there were a few Quiznos stores nearby. One was where my local Scrubway is, roughly five minutes away. The other one was closer to my workplace at the time, at McCowan and Sheppard Avenue East in Scarborough. Both are long gone. Frankly, the only Quiznos that I dropped by recently was on Bay Street, a few blocks away from Scotiabank Arena. I'd go there for a quick bite before a concert. The other evening, I was driving from Canadian Tire to Song Tea along Woodbine Avenue. My head turned when I saw the Quiznos sign to my left. Where have I been and why hadn't I ever noticed this sign? I kept thinking about it. I decided to fetch dinner here last Saturday. After getting my bubble tea, I drove over to this eatery. This Quiznos is in a plaza, a couple of doors down from Mi Ne Sushi, a place that I frequented perhaps eight years ago or so. I found a parking spot halfway down the row of parked cars and backed into it. I walked in and got a woman who said hi. She was busy preparing an order. I saw her fill a container with soup. You can dine in. However, tables and seating are limited. Once she was finished with that order, she focused solely on me. My usual subs are the black angus steak and mesquite chicken. I deviated from both when I saw the beef and swiss melt. I got a foot-long on rosemary parmesan bread. She asked me whether I was good with mushrooms. Yes, said the mushroom freak. Oh, how I have missed being at a Quiznos. I like seeing my sandwich go through the toasting conveyor and come out looking all yummy. I paid with a credit card. This place only accepts credit and debit cards. She wrapped up my sub and handed it over in a bag. I thanked her and left happy with sub in hand. My car smelled so good as I drove home. The only reason I didn't devour my sub was because it was in the backseat and I couldn't reach it while driving. It's a good strategy if you don't have any willpower. I had my sub when I got home. I devoured the whole thing. I normally do an 8" sub, but I was hungry. I'm so glad I went big. The sub looked narrower than I recall. Then again, I have had Jersey Mike's Subs these days that they look gigantic compared to any sub out there. I loved the beef and swiss melt. The beef was tender, juicy, and yummy. The swiss cheese was the perfect amount and was melty delicious. The mushrooms were yummy although this mushroom fanatic would have enjoyed more of them. The bread was excellent toasted. Yum all around! I'm so glad that I found this Quiznos. I was the only customer in the store and I suspect that it does quiet business with all restaurants around it. I'd definitely come back here to get my toasted sub fix. (83)

I ordered the Montreal benny and wife got the French Benedict. The potatoes were decent and plentiful. The Benny's although the server said these would be served medium soft were closer to medium hard. Not much of the yolk we had was runny at all. The cook on my Montréal benny english muffins was overdone. Was super dark brown on the bottom and very difficult to cut as it was so hard. To me the flavor of Montreal smoked meat with benny eggs and bearnaise sauce didn't go together well. It didn't taste bad but it just felt like to many strong flavors competing. Over all, seem like a typical breakfast place. Nothing special imo but if your hungry and need a place to go. Pop on in.

Always great friendly service. Decent deals and menu…read more Food is always done consistently to a great quality.

I wanted to check out a breakfast joint I have never been before for Easter Sunday, and found out…read moreabout Eggstatic in Ajax! This is a franchise that has definitely blown up recently for their amazing Middle Eastern influenced dishes so I really wanted to check it out. Considering it was Easter Sunday we did have to wait about 25 minutes to be seated, but they were taking reservations as well! The staff greeted us immediately and were very kind. This shop has the cutest decor and the vibe feels like you're in a house having brunch! Keep in mind the prices are quite expensive in comparison to other breakfast joints I have been to. The portion sizes are quite big which compensate for the pricing of the food. When it came to the food, we got quite a few dishes to try out! We ordered the Pulled Beef Benedict (9.5/10 was delicious), Canadian Breakfast (7/10 was alright not the greatest), Chicken & Waffles (6/10 waffles were quite stale and lacked flavour), Biscoff Pancakes (10/10 this was amazing and highly recommend), Mango Strawberry Lemonade (7/10 was alright quite sweet), Spiced Vanilla Latte (5/10 did not taste that great) and the Oreo Milkshake (6/10 was very watery)! Overall the food was alright, I would definitely come back for the Biscoff Pancakes and understand why it went viral online! So if you are looking for a breakfast joint to check out in Ajax you should try it out! 7.5/10 Recommend!

My compliments to the server: she came to my table and asked how my food was and my coffee was refilled without my calling her attention.

Been going here for over a decade. I'm not going anymore…read more I only visited for 10+ years because it was the closest diner to my place. 9 times out of 10 you are going to receive burnt eggs, sausages/bacon that tastes like their grill. I think I had the same waiter almost every visit. I guess he had the day off recently. He deserves it! I went in this week and the I asked the waitress to not serve me potatoes and substitute the potatoes for a fruit salad. She said "that is $3 extra" and I agreed, but when I reiterated that I didn't want potatoes, she said she had to make a phone call to verify that it was possible. I asked her why and she said that she didn't think she could NOT put potatoes on my plate.. I asked her to just charge me for the coffee and I'd be on my way. She kept refusing and kept saying she'd go get the food, but at this point I didn't want to pay for burnt eggs and the taste of the griddle on the sausage. She finally agreed to not serve me further and did not charge me for the coffee. I only took a sip anyway, don't go here. GO TO SUNSET GRILL INSTEAD.

The one I ordered was a waffle, 2 eggs (scrambled and all levels of "over"), and 2 sausages. The food was in environmentally friendly recyclable or compostable packaging - plastic or paper. The only issue with the plastic boxes is that the waffle (and fries with the other meal) ended up a little soggy. Since my order was delivery via UberEATS, they also packaged a few containers of berries separately. I'm not sure if these were for the waffles or usually come on the side of the plates. It also came with other accompaniments like ketchup and maple syrup. If you want a breakfast in bed like me, there was an incentive on UberEats that if you spent $20, you got a free pancake so keep that in mind too.
