Excellent chain for healthy bowls and salads. They have lots of different locations throughout the city - all with the same great menu and customer service. I've had really positive experience with the catering order - very easy online ordering, fast responses to questions using their online chat feature, prompt arrival for large catering order, and they provide utensils. All of their bowls are fresh, healthy, and delicious. I especially loved the Green Goddess Bowl - lots of greens and mix of textures (including the soft lentils, crisp spinach and broccoli, and crunchy walnuts & toasted pumpkin seeds). The dressing was flavourful. I liked that we could mix and match the vegetarian bowls with different protein options, including salmon and tempeh. Customer service was very nice and friendly. read more

Never buy a subscription service from Impact Kiitchen. For all of the times they kept me waiting because the broth selection was not ready and the many times i waited for them to pour a chicken broth because they were busy, today they accuse me of ordering a second chicken broth before the 2 hour period. This is a neighbourhood destination that I was enjoying and they talked me in to buying the subscription. 3 of the staff are delightfull and they work so hard. Today the GM was so shockingly disrespectful like I am trying to steal $4.00 of chicken broth. No customer setvice skills or basic be nice to people skills I went there for a pick me up and left feeling so sad. read more

not good and pricy. One of the not so good places. Avoid if possible. Very bland. I am not a greasy cook however I think I could do much better. read more

Impact is a vital part of the Corktown community! The little stretch of King East has become a hub of wellness oriented business, and Impact is their crown jewel. This is a perfect spot for business meetings, catching up with friends over brunch or to read a book. The menu is awesome when you want something delicious but healthy. I love that they always have broth on tap! Servers are always kind. Note that you order at the bar, pay and they'll bring you your food after. The only downside is that they don't take cash. read more

As always, excellent, fresh, healthy food. Great ambience and very friendly staff! Very delicious prepared right when you order and you know it's a great choice. Many different items to try. Awesome breakfast and great for different types of diets. Highly recommended. read more

I got the Kale Caesar and it was incredible. I have not had a salad that good in a long time. It was simple and very tasty. The one thing I did not like about it was that the chickpea croutons were a little too hard. I appreciate all the vegan options. The service was incredible. I did not realize we'd be waited on. They brought the food out and made sure our waters were always full. They took plates away as we ate. The staff was very friendly. The restaurant was well lit. It seems like a nice place to study or meet up with a friend or go out to lunch with your girlfriend as I did. I can't wait to go again next time I am in Toronto. read more

Got the Harvest through ubereats. A mix of quinoa and hemp, roasted Brussels sprouts, a hard boiled egg, lots of arugula (very flavourful), two slices of bacon (wish it was chopped up instead), pickled red onions slices, pickled turmeric celery root cubes, few thin apple slices, candied walnuts, olive oil honey lemon dressing. Nice salad mix, i highly recommend adding on avocado because it's really flavourful (tastes like guac and it's mashed) Chocolate sea salt cookie was just as I remembered- soft and gooey with a crunchy exterior. A must try! read more

Impact Kitchen - Harvest - Gluten-Free Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Impact kitchen is a good spot for healthy, convenient food. They have a variety of bowls, salads, drinks and deserts, each labelled with dietary markers and a full ingredients list. I had the Kale Caesar which came with the most delicious dressing, crunchy chickpeas, and tender kale. The falafel I had on top was flavoured well but I found it to be a bit too dense and dry - perhaps they weren't fresh. I loved their fresh cold pressed juices. I had the Summer Citrus juice which had a hint of ginger to balance out the sweetness and I drank that thing like WATER! This prices are relatively affordable, with some being on the pricier side, especially if it's just for your mid-day meal. However, you are paying for high quality, minimally processed and nutrient dense ingredients. Overall, I probably wouldn't come back due to the fact that I can make this food at home. read more

I ordered take out from Impact King St E location evening on my way home from the gym. I was a little early arriving for my pick up. the staff greeted me as soon as I arrived. They let me know that my order was almost ready. AlL the staff I interacted with were friendly. I ordered the Teriyaki braised beef bowl and it was a delicious nutritious heart warming bowl of goodness on a cold rainy Friday evening. I love Impact Kitchen!!! read more

Friendly staff, clean ingredients, healthy options. This is a great place I'm glad I discovered it. And they have multiple locations around Toronto! The brownie is tasty but slightly dry. I prefer my brownies chewy. I did a build your own lean bowl and it was delicious I chose the balsamic olive oil dressing and it was delicious. read more

Amazing!! The food was absolutely delicious - nutritious and filling, and perfect for the price! When I sat down, the restaurant's ambiance provided a soothing and rustic feel, which was soon accompanied by such friendly staff members - we had a lovely conversation with lots of laughs :) I was only here for a night, but I would definitely go here again!! 11/10 read more

Ordered here through Ritual. Pickup was easy and my food was ready when I got there. I ordered the Lean bowl ($12.95). Got it with steak, spinach, avocado and roasted broccoli as the base. Boy was I disappointed. I get that it's a "lean" bowl, but it left me feeling completely unsatisfied. It came with a handful of spinach and literally only 4 pieces of broccoli. I will say that the avocado was generous (about half an avo), and the portion of steak was okay too (albeit kind of dry). It came with a light dressing of olive oil and lemon. Overall it was bland and pretty much the stereotype of what someone on a diet that doesn't know how to cook would eat. I have a hard time believing that anyone could eat this and feel full. I had to get a sandwich from Tim Hortons afterwards. Looking at the other reviews, other dishes seem to have more toppings and are probably better portion sizes. Don't get the Lean bowl - $13 (almost $15 after tax) for this is almost criminal! read more

I had lunch with my husband and 2 year old son on Sunday. We ordered Victoria bowl with chicken, turkey chilli, Oat milk latte, a bottle of kombucha and a slice of banana bread. The bill came to $53 including tips and taxes. None of the dishes was mind blowing. I can get the same level of fresh Chilli in a bigger quantity from supermarkets for half of the price. Definitely overpriced. Service was ok but not great. read more

I had high hopes for this place going in, and I was excited everything was gluten-free since I have Celiac disease. But, I won't go again. Very overpriced, terrible gluten free bread - Scharr sourdough is far superior to Impact Kitchen's house-made sourdough. The salads were at least $10 too much for the amount you get and zero flavor. The coffee was tiny and I left paying $150 for lunch for 3 people. read more

Love this place ! ...bowls are Huge ! And filling. I always get bowls ..and substitute a few things ..the staff is always patient with me. Recently had the zesty MEXICAN...I added extra beans and added salmon ,it was amazing. Did some work there and ended up having a Latte and dessert. So tasty..and great Latte...no complaints. Atmosphere is chill and spacious (Queen location) Healthy great tasting food , staff 5 stars ! read more

Buyer beware: I paid $6.50 before taxes and tip for a cappacunio in the smallest cup I've ever seen. I brought this to the attention to a barista who proceeded to tell me that this is how cappicinos are normally made in Europe. Funny because I live in France. While I am not dogging on the barista explaining away my issue, I find it problematic that the company strategically and consciously made the choice to choose a cup size and charge a ridiculous price. Shouldn't they at least display these cup sizes? I am not buying coffee here again. read more

I'm not on a diet and was prepared to eat something that tastes like grass when my ex was on a Paleo diet and suggested this place. Boy, did Impact Kitchen prove me wrong. Though expensive, it was very delicious, even for healthy/non-healthy food options. I really liked the Hero bowl with steak. I did not like the Falafels -they do not taste like falafels to me because I expected that crispy, crunchy coating and something soft and tasty on the inside. The coating did not deliver. But I'm still giving this place a 5-star review because I was extremely impressed by them. Also, I tried the desserts and some dessert grocery items. One was a loaf-like dessert, maybe banana? I don't know. It was delicious regardless. I'll come back when I want a healthy takeout/fast food option or more regularly if I win the lottery (: read more

Stopped into Impact Kitchen today during a rare trip to the east side of Toronto. Ordered a flat white in a my personal cup and a chia pudding. The chia pudding was really good! Fresh fruit and just sweet enough. Similarly, the flat white was just milky enough. Perfect! Only gave 4 of 5 stars simply due to the excessive use of single-use plastics. Would have gladly waited to have the pudding in a glass bowl with real silverware for eat-in. But that wasn't an option. I also feel like that single-use plastic container for the chia pudding leaves a lot leftover that's hard to get to. This also opens the risk that a sorting facility may not process this piece due to being so dirty. I'll be taking this home to clean and recycling it myself. Otherwise I really liked this place! Will come back when I'm in the neighborhood, but will make sure I order something that uses less plastic. read more

I've been here a few times now and I really want to love it but the food isn't really consistent. The first time I had the chicken and waffles, I loved it. Second time, chicken was good but the waffles had a weird curry taste. We've tried the farmers skillet twice now, first time was kinda bland but the 2nd time was a little tastier. Coffee is hands down the worst crap I've ever tasted. Don't even bother. Service isn't bad but a couple of the people are a little flighty. Like, we wanted steak and eggs but the eggs were scrambled. We had to get the farmers skillet to get the poached egg. Didn't really make sense. Why can't they just put a poached egg with the steak? It's not like they don't make poached eggs. Also, they brought coffee then told us to go get the milk and sugar. When we just stared at her, she goes, oh I'll get it for you, then we never see her again. Geez. read more

I really, really wanted to like this place because it fits in with this Whole30 fad thing that all my friends are into, but I can't justify spending $20+ on a sad dinner. I came here for dinner with a friend and got the Hero Bowl + chicken on the side for an additional $4.50. What I received can only be described as microwaved boiled chicken in a small bowl. It was extremely dry and had no flavour, smelled a little funky like it's been microwaved two times two many. I didn't even bother putting it in my salad. When the waitress came to give us a new jug of water, she didn't comment on how I didn't touch my protein and just took it away, untouched. Come here for the bowls if you want to feel good about yourself but skip on the added protein. Next time, for an extra $5 you can get a whole chicken at Costco and maybe just buy a head of kale to skip this place completely. read more

Waited a long time - in a super short line - only to have honestly one of the worst coffees I've ever had. And I'll drink coffee on a plane (yes... I know... The water...). They only have almond and coconut milk, both of which are not great for steaming. And the flat white was the price of a hipster cafe, but TINY. And while I absolutely don't expect everywhere to have vegan options, I was a bit surprised given the look and vibe of the place that you're basically limited to avocado toast... Which we all know if the reason millennials can't buy houses in Toronto :P All in all, a nice space, but very disappointing and far too much competition out there to be worth the time for me. read more

The buzz at Impact Kitchen is that food should matter. It should be healthy and whole, and come to you from nearby. It should be nutritionally dense, and serve a purpose for your body. If we're being honest, normally, when I eat out this isn't what I'm after. I am usually chasing things I can't prepare myself, and usually a treat. Lately, I've been on a bit of a health kick. I've got two small children, I've been on my couch too much because of Covid, and overall I just needed more energy. When you're being careful about what goes in your body you end up cooking a lot more, and I needed a break. I sorted healthy options on UberEats and came across Impact Kitchen. I've since ordered from them three times. Three! Now that's love. Steak on one of their perfect salads is nutritious, and more importantly it's delicious. The Hero bowl is my go to. I'm also a huge fan of their mocktail-esq juices and smoothies. Happy healthy eating! read more

I love working here! I typically buy lunch here which can be around $14-20, which is definitely on the higher end of a fast casual lunch but fairly similar price point to IQ food or Fresh. Menu: I don't normally eat gluten free or follow a paleo diet, but they make some really healthy and tasty dishes that taste really good and natural. They do also have tons "healthy" snacks and etc which are focused on trendy superfood ingredients if that's what you like (chia seeds, coconut sugar, MCT oil, etc) I saw a negative review on the chicken - I actually thought that it tasted really good. Of the three proteins the steak was definitely the most tasty. Also, I'm not sure if the salads have gotten bigger but they're definitely not as small as some of the reviewers said they were. I had the hero bowl with chicken and thought it was huge - definitely a good serving size. Layout:I love how spacious it is (similar to Quantum coffee). They don't need to cram as many tables as possible and there's usually seating during the weekdays - although surprising how popular it is nonetheless. They also have two areas that have lots of charting ports and free wifi meaning they are work friendly! They also have really good service here, despite it being fast casual they still bring you your food, refill water, and check in to see how you're doing. read more

A-MAZ-ING This is the the hottest new healthy eating restaurant in the city.... and soon to be branching out to the US! With 2 locations open in Toronto whether you're in the East or West side of downtown Impact Kitchen is a quick and convenient stop for your morning coffee, breakfast on the go, lunch, or afternoon juice and smoothie fix. The menu selections offer super healthy options that do not compromise on taste. If you're new to Toronto, or just haven't heard about Impact yet - check it out - you won't be disappointed. It's my favorite spot and go-to place in the city. read more

paid just under $30 for a kale Caesar with chicken. the salad came with no dressing aside from what was on the kale, leaving it dry and bland. I paid an additional $8 for chicken and received 4 pieces, which barely made up half a chicken breast. way overpriced and mediocre. read more

Great service, high prices, slightly above average food. I had the steak and eggs, and the steak was a little over cooked for my liking (medium well). The eggs were ok but nothing special; however, the avocado that came with it was really good. The black beans that came with it were cold; clearly by design, but it surprised me and was a put off. My wife had the avocado toast, after they told us they had just run out of the protein pancakes. She liked the toast but said it wasn't anything to write home about. We also got some bacon to split, which was reasonably priced at $3 for three strips, but the bacon strips were pretty thin. There just wasn't a lot to it. The bone broth was scalding hot, and didn't have a ton of flavor, but it was nice and warming with the near zero degree (Fahrenheit) temperatures outside. We grabbed some small desserts that they had; my wife had the collagen chocolate pudding which my wife loved. I had the raw chocolate chip cookie dough; it was very dense but the taste was really good. Staff was really nice and friendly, and it was great to find some healthy options while traveling. I can't give it the highest marks, but we will probably be back just to keep having healthy options on our trip. read more

After having last week one of the best latte's in Toronto with excellent service, a carafe of water and a pleasant chat with the server - the coffee was perfectly served with a lovely leafy swirl on the top, lovely texture and excellent taste, my wife an I returned today Sunday Aug 21st to a disaster! The coffee was not prepared by a barista who cared for what he was doing. The coffee had no texture with the previous brown "crust" with small bubbles, it looked like milk with no swirl on the top, - no water was provided and when my coffee was swerved it had been tipped into the saucer- no apology and no attempt to get a tissue to either put under the cup or to take it away and clean the saucer. Others around us I also heard complain. I spoke to the barista and asked if he had used skimmed milk because the texture was strange and "watery" but was told it was full milk with a shrug! Given the cost is higher than most other specialty coffee shops, this was not a good experience. Clearly the team today had very little interest in pleasing the customers- I will not go back to the shop on Adelaide near Spadina. read more

Delicious! It's been a long time since I had a kale salad that was instantly so tastey and satisfying. A little more $$ than average but the quality of the ingredients seems to justify the cost. Convenient location, lots of parking. read more

Heard about Impact kitchen for a while, but never got the chance to make here. The best thing about this place is the "water, " which triggered me to post this review. Not because the water itself is anything special but the caring staff brought over to me after I finished my delicious charcoal latter. Normal coffee shops don't give a damn about it, they will put a bottle on the side and let your service yourself. At impact kitchen, they care about their customers as they did for their food. Love this gesture of thoughtfulness! The food is delicious, miss this type of healthy colourful food with slightly over priced tag, but hey! Better than medical bills! Love the charcoal latte and harvest bowl and the non grassy bacon and that candied walnut in my quinoa ! Will grab some more smoothie on my way home! Please open another location soon! read more

We picked up the hero bowl with chicken and the true roots bowl with falafel. Both were pretty tasty but the portion sizes are small for the price. Also, the falafel is not a typical tasting falafel. Wouldn't return as I can get better bowls for less money elsewhere. read more

I stumbled upon this place yesterday and it far surpassed my expectations! It seems like an ordinary cafe with 'faster' food but the menu options were sure to satisfy any palate. I finally decided on the #HeroSalad , it was the perfect balance of flavour, nutrition and portion size.

As stated in other reviews this place can be on the pricey side of things. But everything I have here I love!!! The chocolate cookie is hands down the best dark chocolate cookie I've ever had! Even better than mine! Ha ha so it's a must!!! If you like it dark! ;) I also enjoyed the venison stew with roasted potatoes. It was $8.95 plus tax for a small, but it came with an equal sized bow of roasted baby potatoes. I can have a big appetite at times, and I found I was really full from a small serving. The juices always seem fresh, I wish they served them in glass bottles, but they are still great! Plus they have a large selection of charcoal beverages. Great for detoxification. They have so many healthy options makes eating easy, nutritious and guilt free. Love that factor, plus they have lots of gluten free and paleo options. My favourite healthy spot in this neck of the woods. read more

I would have never visited this place if it wasn't for having to spend my Btz (from Bunz) and I was pleasantly surprised. The place is very spacious and the servers are friendly. I enjoyed their Lean Bowl a couple of times because it's very clean, healthy eating that doesn't break the bank. It doesn't look huge, but it is filling for lunch. My partner has also tried the Grass Fed Burger that comes with a keto bun, so I can understand the higher pricing. He doesn't follow a keto diet, and he didn't hate the bun, so that's a win. The confusing part is why there would be potatoes as one of the sides...if the bun is keto... the sides should really follow suit. read more

I really need someone to sit me down and change my mind, because all I was served here was terrible food that tasted bland, with cardboard textures, cost a small fortune, received rude service, and witnessed cult like ordering where ppl define their lives as people based on their ordering, which takes about 5 mins per person it seems. Also, no calorie counts, which cuts out an entire demographic of healthy eaters as well. Anyway, this place isn't for me, but being paleo focused is really useful, so if you're into that, this a great spot, albeit with a price tag that doesn't justify in my opinion. read more

I checked out the corktown location on Sunday. Bought a jar of house made Kimchi. When I opened it up, the juices exploded all over my kitchen. Not cool. I spent an hour whiping down the kitchen last night and a few hours today doing a thorough clean, it got everywhere high and low. And it took the shine off my floors where the juice had sprayed. I think the jar is packed too tight and the fermenting process is causing this pressure explosion. Please do something about the stock you have left so your future customers don't have to experience this. And I'm open to you making this right... let me know. :-) read more

I am a huge fan of impact kitchen but I don't go often since I live close to Etobicoke. That being said the staff is super friendly, the service is fast and the food is phenomenal. I only gave it 3 stars because there has been 3 times, including today where an item/ingredient has been missing from my dish. I don't typically check my food before I leave but I need to start doing so. This won't deter me from coming back but it's definitely disheartening to not get what you were expecting read more
