Southwest Santa Fe Chicken Salad
Ting H.

Food at Earls is Hit or Miss depending on what you order. Unfortunately I don't think their Summerlicious menu is one where you actually get value as they halve the portions so depending on what you order you're either getting close to or less than the value you're paying for. The Crispy Chili Tofu appetizer was good and decent portion for an appetizer. The Santa Fe Chicken Salad was not good - would not order it again. The chicken was way too dry, and I had asked for extra dressing which took a long time to arrive. Earls should offer the option for customers to choose Steak, Shrimp, or Chicken and if chicken, the choice of White or Dark Meat. The Cheesecake dessert was OK taste-wise but SO SMALL. They couldn't even provide a full slice of cheesecake?? It was literally a regular slice of cheesecake cut in half - looked so bad. It was so thin that it couldn't even stand up on the plate and was falling over.

Tips: - Make a reservation through OpenTable. It landed our table a complimentary appetizer. - This eatery has a weekday happy hour from 3 pm till 6 pm. There are also nightly and weekend happy hours, but we came here after work. - The white sangria is awesome! My former manager reached out to me about a few work-related questions. It was nice hearing from him. It's my usual self to ask if he'd like to go out for a meal. He was game with either the two of us, or past and current writers. I went with the latter, as it would be nice to have a happier meetup than what we did in November when he was let go. I hadn't been to Earls in a long time. I was a fan of this western Canadian chain when I lived in Winnipeg. Back then. it wasn't as upscale as it seems to be these days. The food was yummy and I liked dropping by. I asked him if he was good with this Earls across from CF Sherway Gardens. He was. There were a total of four folks who said yes. Another colleague said that he'd drop by to say hi. I didn't account for him in the reservation, as he'd be there briefly. I reserved online through OpenTable. It was party of four for 4:30 pm. It was great getting the occasional text message to confirm that we were still good to be here on a Wednesday at 4:30 pm. I was the first to make it here. I had no problem finding a parking spot and backed into an available one. I walked into the eatery. I was greeted by a friendly woman. I said that I had a reservation for four under my name. She found me and led me me to a booth. I looked at the happy hour menu. Red and white sangria were available. I went with the latter. It had peaches and oranges in it. It was delightful. We got water with ice. I waited for my friends and colleagues to arrive. Two of my friends had arrived, followed by the hi-and-bye friend. Two of them looked at my white sangria and order the same thing. Our other friend got a Moscow mule. My former manager texted me. He said that he was stuck in traffic on the 401 and he'd be late. I said that we'd be here. He eventually made it. Yay! He saw that most of us had sangria. He ordered the red sangria. Alcohol does hit him fast. Luckily, we were here for a few hours, so it eventually wore off. Even our server asked if he was okay, which was kind. Service was great. Our female server was attentive, making sure that our water was refilled and we were good. The manager came over and was looking for me. He said that to thank me for my "loyalty," he wanted to give us a complimentary Nashville crispy chicken and pickle skewers. I said that I wouldn't say no to free food! This appetizer was excellent. The pickle was a bit spicy. The crispy chicken was tender and not spicy. It was such a nice gesture. Our table got these items: - Baja taco (me) - Szechuan shrimp and pork dumplings (me) - Aburi salmon sushi press - Clam chowder - Bigger better burger with fries - Truffle tortellini I loved my baja taco. The fish was generous and flaky. It had a light, crispy batter.It was delicious. The szechwan shrimp and pork dumplings were excellent. The chili sauce had a ton of flavour. My former manager's aburi salmon sushi press needed more flavour. This place doesn't have wasabi. Instead, I said to dip his sushi in the szechwan sauce. He did and said it was much improved. I got to try a bit of his sushi and I also dipped it in the sauce. Yummy! My friends loved their meals. Everything was off the happy hour menu, except for the truffle tortellini that looked amazing. For dessert, we got these items: - Lemon meringue pie - Sticky toffee chocolate pudding with vanilla ice cream Our friend had left, so we were a table of four. We devoured both desserts in five minutes. It was quite the feat to witness! The lemon meringue pie is seasonal. It should be on the menu all the time. It was fantastic. The lemon had the perfect tartness. The meringue was light and perfect. The sticky toffee chocolate pudding was moist and decadent. We loved the vanilla ice cream and the crispy wafer. Since I'm the fruit person, I had all the sliced strawberries. So good! We got separate bills. I paid with a credit card at the table. I tipped and tapped. Done! A few of us used the washroom before we left. The women's was clean and inviting. No complaints! My former manager was waiting outside. He noticed that my car was still there. It felt like old times chatting for a bit before heading our separate ways. The food and drink were excellent at this eatery. The company was perfect. Service was wonderful. I'd return here for more good eats and drinks. (147)

Nashville Crispy Chicken Sandwich
Julia B.

Brought a small group here expecting the same amazing food we usually have here. Service was great. Both appetizers (crispy tofu and spinach dip) were great. The kale and mushroom pizza that I had just a few months ago, has changed. Now, it's overcome by a thick layer of cheese, while the scant sprinkle of mushrooms and kale had zero flavour, and the usually amazing crust was dry and too hard to eat. The Nashville chicken sandwich was ho-hum at best. Over-fried, not much flavour and no sign of the promised Nashville spice. Sad to see the tofu tacos have left the menu, and hoping Earls can get back to consistently good food. Tip: Order the crispy tofu appetizer as your main. Best plant-based item on the menu. Our whole group (omnivores and herbivores) devoured these!

October 26/2025: Casual dinner with my Al. This restaurant was absolutely JAMMED with people. It took us about 10-15 minutes to get a table & an additional 15 minutes to get a server to our table. This is the reason for the 4-Star vs a potential 5-Star. I started with a Mill Street Lager ($12.75), a Canadian brand that's always fresh & clean tasting. Had the shrimp dumplings ($19.75) as an appetizer. They were delicious to say the least. Garlicky & spicy with a nice presentation. Decent size order as well. My main was the Cajun Chicken ($36.75). It came with warm potato salad & house coleslaw. This is a bangin meal. A double chicken breast with a great presentation on the plate. The price was a bit ridiculous for the order size but it a very delicious plate. This is definitely a do over.

Plates have saying in them.

The place has had a nice vibe to it. We sat at the bar and ordered a few things than waited for late night happy hour to start 10 pm to close it is a limited menu but great options to choose from. We ordered the truffle fries and spinach artichoke dip and a few drinks. The fries were very good, crispy the aioli was amazing. The dip was so cheesy and gooey and so warm it was soooooo good. The drinks were well made but didn't look like anything special. The $5 happy hour drinks were very good. They didn't have anything extra or specials it just a few appetizers items and drinks at reduced prices for happy hour. Which suited us just fine.

We had a big celebration at Earls Kitchen + Bar near Sherway Gardens. The place was busy so I recommend booking a reservation ahead of time. I ordered the Cajun Blackened Steak (3/5) and the Don Julio Strawberry Margarita (4/5). I ordered the steak medium rare but for some reason, the steak was not as juicy as I had hoped it to be which was a let-down. The vegetables were cooked perfectly. The garlic mashed potato had fried onions on top which added a nice texture to every bite. The dish was a bit salty for me. I'm not exactly sure whether it was the steak or the mashed potatoes. My friend mentioned to me that she had similar situations in the past where she has told the server to let the kitchen staff know to hold back on the salt. One thing that I would hope for the restaurant to improve on was the service. The food took awhile to come out which was understandable since we were a big group but the server didn't come back to check up on us. The bill also took awhile to get to us.

Earls Kitchen + Bar is one of my favourite Canadian chain restaurants for a reason - it never disappoints; everything is always on point and satisfying (from the food and service to ambiance). The menu has something for everyone, and they do every dish really well (taste, quality, portion size, fresh ingredients, balance of flavours). Service is always very friendly, helpful, and efficient,l. This Sherway Gardens location was no exception. We got there during a busy weekend afternoon, and we were told our table would be ready in 10 minutes. While waiting, we got complimentary drinks (choice of mimosa, guava juice, or water). No other restaurant serves glasses of free mimosa while waiting for a table! The wait wasn't even that long. I liked the open kitchen in this restaurant, where we could see the chefs cooking. It looked like they had the logistics pinned down very well, as every ready-to-serve dish was picked up very quickly by the servers. Every Earls location seems to have greeneries - pots of plants and decorations (both inside and outside of the restaurant) that makes you feel you're eating in some sort of garden-like environment. There are a full bar, regular dining area, and patio for warmer months. Their menu changes from time to time, and they always introduce new items and have a "Featured Items" section in their menu, but the categories usually remain the same (they always have mains, salad and noodle bowls, burgers, pizza, plant-based options, desserts). They have a small brunch menu that's served on weekends and holidays until 2 pm, but they serve the regular lunch & dinner menu all day long. Dishes that we tried this time around: 1) Oysters on the Half Shell (half dozen) (comes with mignonette, horseradish, and lemon) - Very small compared to most other raw oysters I've had in other restaurants. It was okay though, as seafood wasn't their main focus here (although they do serve very good other seafood dishes - see below). 2) Sesame Citrus Noodle Bowl (chilled ube noodles, Asian pear slices, fresh herbed greens, crushed peanuts, crispy onions, citrus chili dressing) + Ahi Tuna - Very refreshing, herbaceous, and healthy-tasting. This was perfect for hot summer days (or any day, really). The chilled ube noodles reminded me of a cross between the Korean potato / glass noodles (with the slippery feel) and Japanese shirataki noodles (translucent noodles made of konjac roots - light and low in calories). These ones were made from ube, so they had a light purple hue. The slippery noodles mixed really well with the herbed greens, while the crushed peanuts, crispy onions, and Asian pear slices added a nice crunch and balance of textures. You get to choose to add a protein such as tofu, chicken, or ahi tuna. 3) Cajun Blackened Oven-Roasted Salmon (with seasonal vegetables - broccolini and steamed jasmine rice) - The salmon size was pretty big, and the cajun spices had a bit of a kick (but not overly spicy). It was served on a bed of jasmine rice (which was flavourful with the addition of scallion and crispy onion) and seasonal vegetables (broccolini this time). We asked for extra vegetables and they were able to make that addition for us. 4) Jumbo Lump Crab Cakes + Greens (caper remoulade, prawns, fennel salad, garden greens, lemon vinaigrette) - BEST DISH IN THE HOUSE, in my opinion. One of the best crab cakes I've had. Unlike other crab cakes that contained a lot of filler (to hold the crab cake together), this one was a little crumbly but it was mostly pure lumps of crab meat and prawns, corn, scallion, and other fresh ingredients. The top and bottom were nice and crispy, while the inside was pure heaven (soft, lots of real crab chunks and prawns, and very tasty). It went really well with the side green salad. You can get the crab cakes as an appetizer, main (you get the salad with the main), or add-on to another dish.

Visited the North Queen Earls - Sherway location and had a great experience. The service and food were good and everything was pretty well seasoned/flavoured. They have multiple locations throughout Canada so a very convenient spot to frequent. This location was spacious and modern which I think complimented their food menu. We ordered the steak frites, ube chilled noodles with ahi tuna, calamari, queen bee and margherita pizza. Overall, I would revisit and love to try the many offerings.

I love Earls' happy hour menu! Was sad to see the barbecue ribs gone from the menu but the drinks are still top tier. We were there this past Saturday and had a great time, our server, Kayla, was sweet and helpful. At the end of her shift, we paid & tipped her and then she handed us off to another server who hadn't come to take our order or introduce themself for like 15 mins, seeing us waiting, a manager came and took our order and then we didn't get our drinks for 20+ mins so we left. It was a disappointing ending to a great night, especially cuz we wanted to drink some more and our service by Kayla was great.

Angry Chicken Lettuce Wrap
Alaleh P.

I love Earls Kitchen and I have been to their locations in multiple cuties and provinces. I love their decorations and their patios. They provide great variety of cocktails; delicious ones ;) Their food is also tasty; I have tried their steak frittes and salmon and have loved both equally. My only comment is the music is too loud sometimes; if you're at the bar or a friends gathering, it's fine; but, if you're here for a business meeting, it would be hard to hear each other talking. I recommend making reservations in advance.

Went there for New Year's Eve with friends and music was great and got a glass of Prosecco at midnight! Busy day but good quality was still good with great portion size and flavour

Mary M.

Dropped in for their late happy hour and I'm glad I did. Inside, the ambiance is lovely, dimmed lights, music was just the right volume not overbearing so you can actually have a conversation. It wasn't too busy on a weekday. The menu featured a variety of options from sushi, burgers, pasta, steaks, pizza and even biryani. Multiple Vegas dishes to choose from as well. Tried the angry chicken lettuce wraps, these were absolutely delicious, perfectly crispy chicken, crunchy lettuce paired with the sauce which is tangy and spicy. Tried the praws & tuna tacos, it was full of flavour, the soy paper it was wrapped in really adds a unique texture. Ribeye steak, cooked exactly as requested, full of flavour paired with truffle fries was delicious. The staff was friendly, food arrived in a Timely manner. Do recommend reservations. Highly recommend checking out Earls.

More specifically, the Cactus Club by Sherway Gardens, because let's be honest, not all Cactus Clubs are created equal (iykyk). Every time I visit home, I almost always make it a point to have a girls' night at Cactus Club. It's usually where we kick off the night, and honestly, it's one of my favorite spots for it. I love the ambiance, the energy, and the overall vibe. Just keep in mind that it is also a family-friendly restaurant, so don't go expecting a completely kid-free atmosphere. That said, it still delivers on the girls' night experience. My go-to drinks are either a peach Bellini (obviously) or a dirty martini. As for food, I almost always find myself ordering the butternut squash ravioli, shrimp sushi rolls, Creole dip, spinach dip, truffle fries, wings... honestly, the works! My girls and I are big fans of ordering a bunch of different things for the table so everyone can share. Cactus Club is always a solid choice for good food, strong drinks, great ambiance, and an overall good time. It's become one of my must-visit spots whenever I'm back in Toronto. 10/10 recommend!

I'd been very curious about Resurrection since it opened a few years ago, as it seemed like it…read moremight be a cool, sexy little restaurant and bar. So when the opportunity arose to pop in for a quick drink and some food, I was pretty stoked. We showed up shortly after 6:00 on Thursday evening and the place was empty. As far as ambiance goes, the joint wasn't super promising; there was an oscillating fan sitting on top of one of the tables, a woman was caring for a baby near the back, and the music was being piped from a very clear Bluetooth speaker. Not great. The food and my drink fared slightly better. For my cocktail, I went with the Lucky Strike ("Lucky Charms Milk Punch + Nikka Days Whisky"), which I thought was fine. There was no real complexity of flavor and I thought that it was too sweet, but I basically enjoyed it. We got a couple of Dim Sum options, the Har Gow ("shrimp") and the Cha Sew Bao ("barbecue pork bun"), and they were both pretty middle-of-the-road but generally satisfying. The three accompanying sauces helped, too. I feel like Resurrection was having an off night, so I'll maybe go back and give it another shot in the future.

Overall, they have great portions and value for their food and the interior feels very private and intimate.

Everything has extra cheese, cream, and/or oil added. Ordering was quick and the first course came out around 10 mins after ordering and the mains about 30 mins or so. - bread and butter as well as water is available at the start of the meal - the seafood chowder (fish) was super rich and creamy, it was the highlight of the meal, sharing one is enough for 4 (we had two and with the rest of the meal was too much) - the italian salad was refreshing, but also heavy with dressing, one was good to share - the poseiden calamari was super fresh and crispy, a great app and again sharing one is enough (we ordered two and it was too much) - the veal ossobuco was very well seasoned and the saffron risotto is rich and creamy (very shareable for two people) - the fettuccine sea and land was packed with protein and perfectly done (again shared between two people is best) - the linguine of the sea in cream sauce was topped with a load of seafood and perfect as well (sharing would be ideal) Overall, a great place to have a long night of enjoying food and company, but the food is heavy and oily. Share basically everything with another person or just take the leftovers home to enjoy. Will be back for the calamari and chowder again as well as trying their pizza. Great go-to option for all occasions.
