Incredible option for a healthy lunch in the area. Soooo many options in their salad bar and quite reasonably priced too even though it's pay-by-weight. They also have wraps and hot food options (Chinese food like sesame chicken and rice). Delicious food, great prices and kind employees. Don't know what took me so long to come here but I'll definitely be back! read more

Your healthy eating life will never be the same once you discover this magical place. It's the definition of a HIDDEN GEM. Our day is made every morning when we come in for their breakfast sandwiches. They're made with freshly cracked eggs and topped with fresh veggies and sauces. Where can you find a sandwich like that for only $2.60? (Toasted Western is our pick) and $4.20 for the deluxe sandwiches that come on Ciabatta buns and peameal/regular bacon options (Canadian Classic,mmm). You can customize ANYTHING-switch regular toast for a bagel, or English muffin just ask lovely Wendy, Vina or anybody from the friendly team. Where do I begin with the salad bar? YOU WILL NEVER FIND ANOTHER SALAD BAR LIKE THIS! There is a huge variety of perfectly seasoned, delicious, freshly prepared daily items ranging from veggies to sushi, noodles, falafel balls, spring rolls, egg salad, even Kimchi and fresh fruit. Many Vegan options available. It's priced by weight, and the value is amazing!! There're daily discount specials for lunch wraps and paninis, ALL of them delicious. Personal favourites are Tuna Wrap and Chicken Chipotle. You can also choose from hot food like rice, noodles, fish, beef, and perfectly cooked grilled chicken. YOU CAN'T GO WRONG for a $6 heavy-handed container of hot food. To top it ALL off, Wendy and the staff are sweet, efficient and will eventually remember your name and daily order as a regular. I think they sprinkle crack in all their food because I don't know how they make it so tasty. You will absolutely get addicted. All the other nearby "healthy" restaurants can't touch FFL's quality, price, taste, and service. You won't just be fit for life, you'll be set for life!!! read more

$2.10 total, for an egg sandwich. You can get BELT, ham and egg or vegetarian. The have more breakfast version at different price point, but it's the sandwich that I always get. It's interesting because for the longest time, they kept charging us $2.50, even though the sign said $2. It was over a year, until they finally just said $2.10. Either way, we still go here almost every morning. I guess the same people always go here, because they pretty much know everyone's order already. Everything is made fresh in front of you and it takes them just about 5 minutes to make it for you. I give them a 5 because it's where my coworkers and I also go. I mean, where can you find a $2 breakfast sandwich these days that are actually not processed? It's healthy and yummy. The also have $5 pitas, depending on the day. Monday - grilled chicken pita. It's like eating chicken salad in a pita. It's so fresh and tastey. They added hummus, which made the pita so much more filling. Tuesday - tuna sandwich (my fave) Almost every Tuesday, my coworker has this for lunch. It's pretty good. Wednesday - chipotle chicken panini (it's also pretty good) Thursday - Philly cheese steak (it's a meh) I wouldn't order it again. I actually don't recommend it. It's a disappointment to what a Philly cheese steak should be. I mean, it's not bad, just not good for what it is supposed to be. Friday - vegetarian burrito (I've never tried) My all time fave from them is the Chicken Bacon Ranch Wrap ($6.99). The croutons inside give it a crunch to your bite and they're also generous with their bacon. Mmmmm...I'm actually craving one now that I'm writing this review. read more

Ordered a chipotle panini and was pleasantly surprised to see quite a large sandwich for its price!! So surprised I had to write a review haha It was stuffed, and it was also delicious! The perfect sandwich for when you're in a rush and need to eat on the go. Also ordered one salad but the server offered me 3 kinds to try since it was my first time there :) The lady was very kind, even before trying the food, her service alone made me want to visit again. read more

AMAZING FOOD, VALUE, AND SERVICE!! UNLIKE ANY FIT FOR LIFE OUT THERE. My coworker and I come here every morning for breakfast (toasted westerns are our usual) and often come back for lunch too for their hot food/salad bar! This place is often visited by office workers, construction workers, and students who come here everyday. Wendy, Vinna and the team are on first-name basis with most of their customers, including us :) Best start to our mornings!! read more

This place is very affordable and huge portions. Had the veggie burrito twice and was very satisfied both times. The second time they ran out of the wrap I wanted so the lady gave me extra gauc. The people who work there are super friendly and always put a smile on my face. Only complaint is that they are not open on the weekends!! read more

This place is so close to my work and we often go their for the sandwiches. The lady is so friendly there, she always smiles preparing the sandwiched. I haven't tried their salads yet but there are plenty of choices. Usually we pay $5 per each. Its a good price. But its really hard to find the location if you don't know the place especially now with a construction in front. read more

The $5 sandwich of the day is now $6, so I'm less stoked on this place than I was when I first started coming here. It's still a fair offer, but the value isn't what it once was given a 20% price jump. Grilled chicken pita on Mondays is probably my favourite of the daily specials. Philly Cheesesteak Pita on Thursday was good, but skimpy on the steak part. The salad bar looks like a good option for veggie friendly people, but that's not my jam so I'll leave that to others to review. read more

Ok so I work up at Yonge and Eglinton. There are a fair few places to choose from when looking for something to eat at lunch. One of my colleagues recommended Fit for Life and oh lordy I am so glad they did! Everything is so fresh and delicious, the first time I went I did not quite understand you pay for your salad box by the weight...oh dear! The cucumber dressed in yogurt, mint and dill - wow! Sweet potato salad is also lovely. Fit for life...when you realize salad can be amazing! read more

I only heard about this place from a yoga instructor at Yoga Tree Midtown. Just steps away. Boy am I glad I came in here. The salad bar was similar to Whole foods except it won't cost an arm and leg. Approx. $5 for a small box. It was all by weight. Tried to sample lots of vegetarian options (kale, quinoa, etc.). It was good and fresh. Staff was very friendly and it was clean. Fit for Life is located at the back of a convenience store. Will definitely be back again if I'm hungry and in the area. read more

VIBE In this convenience store in-front-healthy eatery at the back, it's like I'm at a buffet except this time it's not at a baby shower and I'm crowded by strangers. Love that this is right near my office and love that there's now a location at Queen and Bathurst. I ATE Their Thai chicken curry soup is addictive! I always try to get a salad to go with it. Best part? I can pick my own toppings! Ohh yeah. Plus, sometimes, I can have bowtie pasta on my spinach. Because sometimes, there are days like that. Note: please get regular Snapple iced tea. Snapple, are you listening? Don't discontinue your classic iced tea! OBLIGATORY CATCHY REMARK Possibly the best value for healthy food in this city. Eating well doesn't have to be for the elite! read more

Does anyone know how EXCITED I got when I found this place yesterday? lol I used to eat at the one in Fairview Mall but I'm not in that neighborhood much anymore and the last time I was there I don't even think it was there. Anyways I think their prices are reasonable and the variety is unbelievable. I like the 'hot' food options they have. I had a small container of rice with chicken on top which was mixed with potatos and some other veggies and it came to around $4 and I didn't even finish it. BUT what you want to come here for is the salad bar. Talk about options. You grab either the small container or big (which is what almost everyone goes for), and pack away. You can get your traditional garden and cesar salad, and then you have all other other good stuff from just plain veggies like carrots, cherry tomatoes, pepper sticks, pickles, broccoli...and then you have the tuna pasta salads and regular pasta salad. For a little sweetness you can add fruits with yogurt and almonds. Who know you could get excited about salad! :P Anyways give it a try, the staff is so friendly and just know you're eating healthy! read more

My go to for lunch. Large selection at the salad bar. Inexpensive salads. You're charged by weight so I try to put more of the 'lighter' veggies in my take out box. They have a special $5 sandwich every day of the week. My favourite is there falafel wrap on Mondays, and Chicken Burrito Wrap on Fridays(?). Tuesday and Friday they also have curry chicken and rice - $5 for a small. Extremely spicy but delicious. I'm willing to suffer through it every time. Was addicted to their Thai Curry Soup for awhile too. Also, I go for their $2.50 BELT sandwich in the mornings. Have I made my point that this is the ultimate go to for quick food around the Yonge and Eglinton area? Wendy, the cashier is extremely nice and friendly. I look forward to seeing her every time! She also doesn't worry too much about change. Sometimes I don't have enough exact change, maybe 5 or 10 cents less and I'm trying to find a quarter, she would say don't worry about it. When I find that quarter, I always drop it in the tip jar. Really appreciate her friendliness and service. read more

I had a very unpleasant experience with my breakfast this morning. I go here very often for my breakfast and usually get veggie western for $2. This morning I was more hungry and asked for an extra egg. My disappointment was when I got charged extra $2 for an egg??!!!! Really??!!! I could as well get two sandwiches if I knew I would get charged extra $2 for an egg. It seems like they make prices as they go, because I did hear before that extra egg costs 75 cents. So I guess it's a face control price forming?! I'm very disappointed as I'm their loyal customer, so now I'm wondering if I should ever go back. And it's not about the money, I just do not want to be taken advantage from... read more

Fit for Life is my regular lunch spot. After revamping my diet, Fit for Life has been supporting my diminishing gut one delicious salad at a time. This place is great, they have great healthy fresh food for reasonable prices. I'm a fan of their salad bar. This type of layout is common in the states and even found in convenience stores in NYC. It's a simple salad bar that offers a plethora of choices. Different lettuce mixes, cucumbers, beets, corn, pasta salads, olives, tomatoes, strawberries, pineapple, mango, avocados, and the list goes on. The salads are priced by weight and often times, the owner will cut you a deal. The wraps are full of vegetables and taste fresh as well. If the healthiness is overbearing, you can opt out for a $5 lunch box. These consist of your choice of rice or noodles and your choice of stir-fried protein item (spicy chicken, black bean beef, etc.). I always go for the half and half (both chicken and beef). They really fill up the containers here! To top it off, the owners are especially sweet and kind. Whether you're in the mood for a healthy meal or a slightly greasy stir-fry substitute for Manchu Wok, this is your place. Good food for a great price. read more

This place is THE best. Wendy doesn't advertise because word of mouth of her amazing business gives her a lot of business as it is. I started coming here after my workouts at the nearby GoodLife and I became quickly hooked. Like an addict, I come here and scour the salad bar and it is exactly what the name says -- FRESH. Wendy and her team start from scratch every morning and it is as fresh as possible and she is so friendly. I haven't ordered a sandwich because the variety in the salad bar is so extensive -- and it's not your typical salad bar. There's cooked sushi rolls, eggrolls, kimchi, egg salad, pasta salads, bean salad, roasted sweet potatoes and other roasted veggies like brussel sprouts -- and the kale/beet salad and mango salad, and the list goes on and on...GO people. This place is open Mon - Fri. from morning thru lunch. It is awesome. read more

I like their paninis because they taste good and are grilled. Also, the chipotle sauce on the steak or chicken is tasty. You can also earn stamps which go towards getting a free sandwich. The servers are not very service-oriented, maybe because the food is relatively cheap, they aren't necessarily mean. They continue talking to each other in a foreign language and give sharp answers whenever anyone asks about anything. read more

This is as healthy as it could get!It's not the regular fit for life which only has wraps. You need to check it out to see what I meant. The salad bar is made fresh daily replenish often with love. The owner is a sweet lady who loves what she do. That's is to feed people and make them feel health and great. The best part is you get to customized your own salad they have pretty much all the good stuff I meant greens, fruits protein, pickles you name it. My absolute favorite is roasted sweet potato they are perfect roasted beautiful caramelized brought out natural sweetness and lots of dietary fiber loads of goodness. Egg salad and potato salad are also very good not super heavy drenched in mayo but good amount so that its creamy. The Chinese seaweed full of iron so does beets. I always throw in a couple of avocado, that's where the good fat is coming from let alone taste so amazing. They also have daily special for only $5 I tried the tuna wrap and steak great value. Price are student friendly for the salad by weight. You know a lot of time in downtown core those food court you get a tiny box of greens for over$10 have to admit the price is what throw me off eating healthy cause would still be hungry after eating tiny portion of greens. As opposed to this place for half the price you get big portion ,fresher and a good variety of ingredients. Once you found it you are are your way to be fit and healthy) I don't want to say lose weight or anything cause I think ultimate most of us want to be fit and feel good about ourselves ) read more

Fit For Life - a buffet with many different foods - Sandwiches Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I eat here once a week at least. I always either get the chicken bacon ranch or tuna wrap. The prices are great and the vegetables are always fresh and delicious. The staff is so friendly and kind. It's a great place for a healthy fresh lunch for under $10. It's location is a little strange it's in the back of a convenience store in the Bell building. Most importantly they don't cheap out on the bacon and it's not the paper thin flavourless stuff either. read more

Love love love this place! I work in the area so I've tried most of the possible food spots for lunch options. This one beats them all in my opinion. If you like healthy food and variety you should give this a go. Be warned: this is not a spot for the grease loving North American crowd - no deep fried or stale veggies here :). It is much healthier than "Fresh" and much much cheaper. And the service is alot friendlier and faster as well. Once it took me 20 minutes to get my order of kombucha and pre-made salad at Fresh...but thats a whole different topic. Back to fit for life - try their salad bar - their best feature! read more

I've worked at Y&E for 10 years now...and nothing comes come to Fit for Life for 1.)Fresh Food 2.) Variety and 3.) Customer service. I frequent this location (4-5) times a week. I've never had a bad meal and the owner Wendy is always pleasant ! The salad bar (of which I've posted and unaltered pic) (yes it's that pretty) is def worth the trip. But their sandwiches, panini and lunch specials are always tasty and a great bargain as well. ($10 and under) I love this place ! ! read more

Fit For Life - a variety of fruits and vegetables - Sandwiches Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

This is the perfect place for business people in the area. I used to visit this place two or three times a week back when our office was next door. It is sort of hidden inside of a convenience store, but once you find it, you'll make the regular trip there for breakfast and lunch. Picture a small cafeteria with ultra friendly staff who knows the regulars by name. The food here is fresh and cheap. You can get omelettes for breakfast served on bread, a wrap, or on it's own -- for $3. Lunch consists of different daily specials, typically a stir fry or meat of some sort served on rice or noodles. A small portion is $4 (enough for most people) or $7 for a large (my size). They also have gourmet sandwiches, fruit smoothies, wraps. Everything is made to order. For Yonge and Eglinton, the service and prices are excellent! The biggest draw to this place is its DIY salad bar. There's easily over 50 items (maybe even 100) and you mix everything you want -- fruits, veggies, nuts, dressing, etc. and pay by weight -- $5/lb. You can get a nice meal sized salad in the $5-10 range. I love to mix in fruit with my salads, so the DIY style was perfect for me. They also have frequent user cards, where you can earn a free meal after 9 visits. I've had countless free meals over the 4+ years I spent there. I miss this place! read more

Some friends recommended this place to me and I am forever grateful! I mainly build my own salad ($4.99/lb) which usually gets me a good amount. Lately i have been having cravings for potato salad and pasta salads and they make them so yummy here! I did try the western sandwich ones it was alright, satisfying but not amazing and decent for $2.99 There is a great selection and Wendy is super nice. She makes you feel welcome and she genuinely is grateful for your business. I always look forward to going for for lunch! read more

FFL is awesome. Staff is super beyond friendly. Sandwich options are insane Salad bar is fully stocked. Reasonably priced. Qualify ingredients throughout. This is gonna be my go-to stop after working out. Lots of protein to pick from (yay muscle-building) and decent beverage options. They're good about filling up my water bottle and just cheering me up. Truly committed to fitness and everything that comes with it (including post-workout cranks like me ;) Looking forward to my next stop here. Will throw on some pics next time. I RECOMMEND- Everything EXTRA TIP- make it your sandwich! the ladies here often throw avocado into my sandwich without any extra charge even though it's only part of the salad bar. read more

This place is a total gem. It's located at the back of a convenience store. The lady who works there is super friendly. Their breakfast sandwich is $2.10 and they always load up the veggies for me when I get the vegetarian option. The salad bar has plenty of fresh and unique options and you can customize it to your liking. It's measured by weight and a small full box usually cost me around $6. I got their mango smoothie once, and they added extra blackberries, veggies, and other fruits for me all for the same charge. If you want a healthy option for breakfast and lunch for a really great price, come check this place out! read more

It is my kind of food, I love the fact that there is so many fresh types of fruit and vegetable all peeled and chopped so all you have to do is choose what you fancy and eat it :) I work nearby and I fond the place by pure luck - looking for something in the shop wandering the isles I noticed people going at the back and coming out with some boxes so I went to investigate and I'm so glad I did - I found my perfect lunch box:) read more

Love this hidden place (yes it's at the back of a convenience store)... Instead of buying all your veggies and fruits to make a salad (and have most of it go bad because ur only one person)- this place has a whole selection that is already chopped up and ready for you to pick from their buffet style selection!! You get a choice of a small or large container and you just fill up on the stuff you like... Most of the food is healthy; fruits, veggies, tofu, eggs etc. You can add meat or falafel at the counter for protein and voila- a simple healthy meal with no trouble at all... The value is great for what you get- no more wasting time chopping up veggies for a salad for me anymore :) I have to add that the lady at the cash is AMAZING and so so friendly... Also super fast and efficient at moving the line very quickly during the busy times which is mainly lunch time during the work week. Nothing fancy at this place but you're not there for the look of the place but for the food! :) read more

Working at Yonge and Eglinton, I am deeply appreciative this place. The food is fresh, diverse and healthy. Relative to what you are getting, it is also very fairly priced. It utterly lacks in atmosphere if you are looking to stick around and eat what you order in the location. It is tucked at the back of a convenience store with sparse, uncomfortable seating at the back. Make plans to eat at your desk or elsewhere if you stop by. Still, I give it five stars because it does what it sets out to do perfectly - offer fresh, incredibly delicious and healthy food fast and at a fair price. read more

I dropped off one star only because I'd have gone to this place much sooner had I known it was there! It's hidden in the back of a convenience store in the Bell building (by all the Crosstown construction) Super friendly staff, fresh produce in the salad bar. My wish list would be for allergy alerts (icons?) for the premixed salad bar items, and for an indicator of organic produce. read more

It's a wonderful place for grabbing a quick lunch to eat at work, they have a great selection of salad ingredients, and their soups are delish too. The checkout lady is always nice and friendly. I wish it was on my side of the street though :) read more

Don't be fooled by the convenience store at the front of this place, Fit for Life is a truly hidden gem! It has a fresh, widely varied salad, fruit and kimchi bar and the pricing per 100 gms is quite reasonable. The staff are super friendly too and the place is very clean. Decor...I'm never so concerned about this but I wish the convenience store nonsense were tucked away somewhere less conspicuous and that there were more seating near the window. Will definitely be a lunch regular here!! read more

Wendy, the very sweet and kind Chinese owner is exceptionally helpful, customer oriented and very generous. Their salad bar is amazing , giving one almost all the necessary rainbow colors a salad bowl requires. Her sandwiches and the daily prepared dishes are of good quality, however, some of the prepared food such as the noodles and seafood need quite a bit of oil reduction. One can definitely make a very juicy and tasty meal out of so much options. You can also custom make your smoothies, sandwiches , wraps, or anything at your own discretion. T.O. for sure needs more places like this with reasonable pricing. I have tried other fit for life branches , but they aren't even close to the options this place offers :-) read more

Love grabbing my $2 veggie western in the morning for breakfast. The staff are genuinely nice people. I only go there 3-4 times a month but the girl there always recognizes me and remembers how i like my sandwich. I don't have salad too often as i don't care too much for cold foods. I picked up some cold fried tofu and didn't like very much. It was dehydrated and rubbery. But that said, they do have a great selection of salad items. Also love their $5 lunch deals. Im vegetarian so i only get their veggie burrito on fridays. Great meal for the price. read more

To go place to grab lunch. A small box of customized salad is often around $5. There's a lot of variety with salads: kale, quinoa(my favourite), mango, pasta ... The list goes on. The fruits are fine, they don't taste too fresh but it is understandable since they probably have been standing outside for 1-2 hours. The veggie burrito on Friday is also the bomb, very similar to chipotle for only $5!! I have introduced several of my friends to this place and they have become a regular as well. read more

Best place to eat in the area...anything and everything you could want for the best prices, wraps, rice, chicken, Salad Bar so you can make your own salad, ANY veggie or fruit you could want or crave. Daily specials and my personal favorite is on Thursdays the chilli chicken with rice. I highly recommend this place and Wendy the owner is so nice and friendly. Trust me if your looking for a fast delicious and healthy meal then look no further ! 5 out of 5 read more

Hidden gem tucked away at the back of a convenience store so it's easy to miss. Great variety of food at the salad bar and great value for money. Friendly, courteous service. read more

Amazing salad bar! So many different options such as seaweed salad. Also, very well priced. Staff is super friendly.

The lunch buffet is so very tasty with a great variety of options. Many kinds of yummy and creative salads. I wish they were open for dinner too! read more
