Received water and mediocre tasting food at best. Not once did anyone return to our table to check on anything and we even had to ask for the bill after waiting quite sometime after finishing our brunch. The restaurant was not busy at all. Actually the server took our order, delivered it and never was to be seen on the floor again. 2 ladies (clearly owners...) only greeted, were kind and acknowledged customers that spoke their language. Needless to say I'D NEVER GO BACK.

Family run, old-fashioned style diner which serves amazing all day breakfast! Portions are generous. Been here a few times and my favourite thing to get is the French connection - eggs your choice, home fries, bacon, sausage AND French toast. So much food. The Benedicts are great as well, although my only complaint is that there might be a little too much hollandaise sauce. Never tried any of the sandwiches here but my boyfriend got the burger once and it is massive! This place is usually operated by two or three people and they are fast and efficient! We come back here frequently and would definitely recommend this gem. It's hard to find good quality diners in this part of Toronto.

Cute atmosphere! I appreciate the family friendly vibes, and super accommodating staff…read more While the food we ordered looked great, and seemed fresh, everything I tried was oddly dry. From an overcooked omelet that really could have used more cheese, to the waffles that came with no butter and were ever so slightly overcooked, the execution was a miss. That said, I wish I had a spot like Starving Artist in my neighborhood. I'm sure once you get used to the menu, it's pretty easy to make a custom order that fixes any of the problems you might experience.

I got the fully loaded, salmon bennies, pineapple banana waffle dessert and chai latte. All meals came with salad and a choice or fruit, potato salad or maple beans.

Glad to have one close to home :)

Out group tried the Biscuits and gravy, shrimp Benny and brisket Benny as well as fried green tomato, kids apple johnny cakes and grilled cheese. The portions are generous. The chicken with the biscuits and gravy were 2 pieces of brined dark meat chicken served on a biscuit and collards smothered in pork gravy. Chicken was very juicy and super crunchy, collard needed some acidity, biscuit was light but a little overdone and gravy was not as fat a decadent than in the south, lighter but still tasty, wish they poured it a little more generously. The fried green tomato was outstanding as the accompany silly aioli situation was great. Kids apple jonnycakes were a hit and loved the hot chocolate with mini marshmallows for the kiddos. Gtilled cheese was a hit - got the pull and the bread was well toasted. The home fries were a bit of a let down. Although very cool and layered, they seemed very greasy, maybe oil or flattop wasn't hot enough? Benny's were both good, shrimp cake was well cooked and crisp and brisket was flavourful and moist. Hey have no waiting area and take no reservations. Use their call ahead service and enjoy

August 18/2015: A solo breakfast…read more Tiny little diner. Less than 50 seats for customers with an old style 50' theme. I ordered the Eggs Benedict ($17.25). Small serving but not bad taste wise. My server was very nice but wouldn't allow me to take advantage of the breakfast specials because I was there at 11:10 & the specials expired at 11:00, which I kinda understood. I found that to be a rather chinchy move in my opinion. Nothing to write home for food. It didn't really offer anything special but it was good. Peameal bacon was nicely done. I doubt I'd go again, there's not enough of a uniqueness to warrant another visit.

But wasn't pleased that she got charged for that and the server didn't do anything about it other than saying she'd mention it to her manager.
