    cornbread
    Chyna Q.

    Decided to give this place a try as it is Michelin recommended. I'll start with the ambiance: it's pretty tight inside but the outdoor is more spacious. Staff were so sweet and fast-- food came out super fast. The food was absolutely delicious. The caesar salad was the only thing I wouldn't order again, but the fried chicken, mac and cheese, beef, everything, 10/10. Will definitely be back!

    After hearing so much hype, I was excited to try this place. It was good, but I honestly felt like I could recreate most of the dishes at home. Maybe I'm missing something.

    Conejo Negro was a 10/10 from the vibe to the taste of the food. If u lived in Canada they wouldn't be able to keep me away from this restaurant. The service was okay. It seemed to be so busy they couldn't remember a lot of stuff so we did have to ask multiple times but the food more than made up for that in my opinion.

    Lamb and macaroni

    This was the highlight of my food experience in Toronto! I booked with a large party so there was a pre fixed menu and every single dish was good! I love love loved! The lamb was delicious and definitely my favorite

    Brazilian cheese puffs and cornbread
    Sam A.

    Yup, an easy 5/5 and I knew it would be. I had high expectations and they were met. This is a place where you go to share dishes. This is not a place you order a dish to yourself. Made a reso for 5pm on a Friday night and thank god I did because the resto was FULL by the time we left around 6:40. What we ordered for the table: Brazilian cheese puffs Cornbread Caribbean style braised beef Jerk chicken Macaroni pie Brazilian cheese puffs We liked this better than the cornbread but the cornbread was still great. The cheese puffs had a nice saltiness to them from the cheese. They were soft, chewy and bouncy. Overall great flavour. Cornbread This was almost dessert like. The texture was so soft and buttery. Not like a typical cornbread. It was drenched in butter and you could slice your fork through it so easily. Again great flavour but we preferred the cheese puffs. The cornbread was surprisingly also filling. They brought out the breads first before the mains. Jerk chicken Great flavour, juicy and fall off the bone. There were 3 of us and each piece was a perfect size for us. The pumpkin rice it came on was a nice touch and tasted delicious. I can't remember the coleslaw but I'm sure it was good lol. There was a lot going on on my plate. Braised beef This was the star of the show. My friends thought the jerk chicken was the star until they finally tried the braised beef. We all agreed this was amazing. So tender and melt in your mouth. The gravy/pepper sauce will get you though! It was spicy but didn't take away from the flavour. I like the addition of collard. This dish was definitely giving elevated oxtail meal from your local Caribbean shop lol. Macaroni pie Honestly it was good and paired well with the rest of the dishes we got. Not sure if it was really memorable but I think I would order it again for the table. I mean how can you not like a Mac pie esp when you're having Caribbean cuisine? All the dishes came out at a fair paced time. I will ABSOLUTELY be coming back. I'm happy I got to try most of the dishes I wanted to. I defs need to try both desserts next time. An amazing dining experience and my friends agreed. My only nitpick complaint is the music was too loud lol. We were sat right by the speaker and really had to talk loudly to hear each other. Other than that, service was friendly and quick and I'll be back! :)

    Caribbean style braised beef
    Carmen G.

    A Creole, Caribbean restaurant that is Bib Gourmand, known for its Latin influences, good quality and good value. I definitely think there were some hit and miss dishes for sure. Starters were all amazing, whereas the main courses were not really to our liking. Service was great at the beginning, but somehow our server changed mid service and was never made clear to us, therefore we didn't know where our original server was the entire rest of the night. This spot is a solid 3.5/5 for me! Here's what we got: Small plates/ sides: Pork belly tacos 5/5 - Loved this, well rounded with the fatty pork and salsas Tuna and shrimp ceviche 5/5 - Citrusy, delicious, great for sharing Firecracker shrimp 5/5 - These were addicting! Fried shrimp in a firecracker sauce. Must get Creole caesar 4/5 - Great caesar salad with fried okra Elote ribs 5/5 - Loved these. Grilled corn ribs with lime crema sauce Macaroni pie 4/5 - A macaroni and cheese side dish that was cheesy and good for sharing. Large plates: Fried chicken 5/5 - Probably the best main dish imo. Was perfectly cooked with some smoked hot honey. Curried lamb 3/5 - This was okay, slow cooked, and served with roti. Caribbean style braised beef 3/5 - Thought this looked better than it tasted. Just was okay imo. Overall, would come back for the small plates and sides and skip the large plates. You just have to know what to order here.

    The appetizers were amazing! very very flavourful and love how colourful and how they use many ingredients to create the dishes. The tuna shrimp ceviche, elote corn ribs, corn breand shrimp crackers are a must order! Jerk chicken and fried chicken was just okay. and the 2 sauces that they provide with the food is super yum. We were seated in the back heated patio. not cold at all!

    Grilled okra
    Rafael N.

    Carribean and creole inspired food. Food: Ceviche: was really good. I liked the chips. Pisco sour: good. Not too alcohol forward and very balanced. Sour but not overwhelming. Grilled okra: good. Very nice char on it. Very tasty and so was the garlic and lime crema. Slightly spicy. Blackened fish: it was okay. I probably wouldn't get again Jerk chicken: pretty good. Spicy. Flavourfull. Carribean braised beef (not pictured): thought it was just okay at first. But it reheated very well at home the next day. Service: Really good. We asked for a candle on the cake for a bday. They came out singing their heart out. We also stayed a long time and they were very nice throughout. Great staff. Ambiance: Casual but not dive bar. Not stuffy or fancy. Good place for a casual date.

    Came here for dinner with a friend and we were blown away. The menu was eclectic and unique. I'm so glad we decided to share several things. Everything we tried was superb. The atmosphere was bustling. A cool vibe inside, and a back patio that really pops. Love the decor, the graffiti in the basement where the bathrooms are...everything was just fantastic. Since Covid, I've noticed the service at restaurants generally isn't what it used to be. But not here. The staff at Conejo Negro were incredible. They were all very attentive and about the experience. 10 out of 10!

    Tres Leches
    Sarah P.

    Conejo Negro is an eclectic spot around the Ossington area if you're into Caribbean + Latin fusion with bold flavors. We tried the Manu Sour cocktail, pineapple & beet salad, grilled okra, elotes, blackened fish, fried chicken, and tres leches. Everything was super flavorful, and most dishes we ordered had a bit of a kick - perfect if you like spice. The plates are also designed for sharing, which makes it a fun spot to go with friends. The vibe is casual but lively. Staff were super friendly and attentive. The restaurant does get busy, so making a reservation is definitely recommended.

    ceviche
    Ivon W.

    came here due to its bib-gourmand recommended status. nice ambience. attentive service. bussssssyyyyyy... we ordered: 1. ceviche. omg!! soooo damn good. very different style from typical ceviche. refreshing, sweet soury (almost vineggraite-ish... from the fruits) and has a kick! paired it with the slightly salted 'chips' gave nice crunch texture overall. 2. fire shrimp. flavorful savory tasty. finger licking good. 3. cornbread. not bad. i guess bread is bread. it has TINY drizzle of honey. which is good when paired with melted butter. so this is best eaten when warm. 4. fried chicken. juicy and has the right crispiness. it comes with honey hot sauce and pickled. the sauce is too sweet. the pickle help to cut the sweetness and balanced the overall flavor (even tho im not a 'pickle' person...no pun intended. lol). 5. macaroni pie. im not a fan of macaroni in general, but my table mate love it! highly recommended this place! worthed.

    Great high quality food and service! Decor could be better
    Tara K.

    Great, high quality food and service. Decor was lacking - could be better for the high standards of everything else.

    Award winning restaurant

    The coolest vibes for Papi Hour, hosted by @Overproofpapi at Conejo Negro. It was a girls night out and I wasn't really sure what to expect going in but was pleasantly surprised! The event was tucked into a cozy room at the back of the restaurant, complete with a live DJ and a dedicated bar area that made the space feel both intimate and bumpingat the same time. A special cocktail menu was created just for the night, with food available from Conejo Negro's regular menu (best of both worlds.) Mingling was effortless thanks to shared table seating and a fun "get-to-know-you" bingo game, complete with prizes (first place scored a bottle of rum, second took home a pair of the gorgeous decorative glasses the cocktails were served in). Drinks: I spent the evening sipping on a beautifully presented Hemingway Daiquiri (and cheers to Uber for getting us home safe and sound). Food: Conejo Negro absolutely delivered on ambience and food (no surprise they've earned a spot on the Michelin list two years in a row.) Standout dishes: the ceviche (incredibly fresh) and the fried chicken (juicy AF). I already know I'd be tempted to order the exact same things on my next visit... though there's still so much more on the menu to explore. Vibes: This collaboration was pure genius. I left with great conversations, new connections, and a strong desire to bring all my friends back to Conejo Negro and to more events like this!

I went there for lunch earlier and picked up two shrimp boils in medium spice, robot blend and it was great as usual. Service is always amazing and today was no different.

I also used the washroom before I left and it was clean and smelled good as usual. Will be back next week!

The place is quite small though nicely decorated.They use robots to carry the food around so I found that the service was went quite smoothly. My friend ordered oysters. I'm not a big fan of oysters but the one's here are of good quality. We each ordered a pound of mixed seafood. She ordered the shrimp and the frozen mussels, while I did the shrimp and fresh mussels. Then we had the seafood fried rice. Finally, we shared an order of lobster tail; they gave us two so we had one each. The seafood rice was superb; just the right amount of spice and full of flavour. My mixed seafood was also quite good. I was pleased with the shrimp. The mussels tasted fine although do take note that the fresh mussels tend to be smaller than the frozen ones. I had some mussels that were incredibly small, to the point where it didn't actually feel like I ordered a pound of seafood. I ordered the robot blend for my pound of seafood, which was stellar. Very good Southern boil flavours. I tried the coconut and curry sauce with the lobster tail and it tasted a little underwhelming. Another note: I ordered my seafood with the sauce while my friend ordered the sauce on the side. I would actually recommend ordering it on the side, especially if you have mussels, so you can get a good coating of sauce on the mussels themselves (as opposed to the shells). Overall, it was a good experience. If you're looking for a nice seafood boil place, this is a good place to start. This is close tot he Bloor-Yonge station so it's quite conveniently placed!

The food was fresh and well-made, and reminded me of visiting family in Italy who have been making simple and delicious meals from scratch for generations. Because of the affordable price, I was concerned about portion size but they were generous and considerably larger than they appear in the menu's photos. I ordered two main dishes (each main is one protein and two sides for $13) and an extra two veggie-based sides (5) for two people at the end of a long day, and it was more than enough. On an average day, I think I would be satisfied with just a main - the sides included in the main are good dishes in their own right, no filler. I will order again or, post-covid, it would be a perfect to-go option for the park. Delivery was quick, ingredients were whole, and flavour was strong.
