Didn't seem too interested in our 4 person party. Took prefers brought the items but didn't come back until are plates were empty. Never asked if we wanted coffee or dessert.

Dear Patron's I visited the Belsize pub on a quiet Tuesday…read moreafternoon this past Summer.. I sat at the bar and chatted with the kind chatty bartender. I can't remember her name, but she was full of information and fun facts. I come from the restaurant industry and love food and good service more than anything. Creating an experience for someone is very rewarding !! I am from Vancouver and have lived abroad for years. I am a fan of mind blowing burgers. I am normally let down when I order a burger in Canada --- Vancouver especially. Canadians struggle with cooking kickass burgers. I could go on and on about it , but I'll spare you the dramatics. I asked the lovely waitress about the burger and how I'd only order it if was cooked on the medium rare side. (How a burger should always be cooked ) She explained that there beef was sirloin ground And will have cooked medium rare for me!!! WHAT HAPPENED NEXT nearly knocked me off my stool!! Holy Sh*t !!!! This burger trumped any burger I've ever had and then some. Everything was perfect about it. The simple ingredients were placed with care and super fresh. The bun was toasted yet soft inside , the seasoning and love in the burger totally rocked. So everyone. Please try a burger or anything for that matter At the Belsize. I was one of my best meals of the year and a great way to experience Toronto!! Sincerely Cameron W

Their patio is like a little hidden gem but we elected to sit inside. The booths inside are huge. We ordered appetizers to share as it was late on a Sunday. We had the pork tacos, shrimp dumplings and the peanut chicken satay noodle salad. We did order the potatoe skins but they ran out of that item. The shrimp dumplings are yummy. The pork tacos was good but missing a flavour (recommended a slaw to help). The best dish is the peanut chicken satay noodle salad. Crunchy, peanuty and limey. All the flavours to make the salad fresh and tasty. Overall, a good eatery to try out. Just note parking is quite limited and the dishes are pricey.

Their menu is extensive with all day breakfast and various diner meals. Your typical greasy spoon diner that really delivers I came on a weekday for lunch and they were very busy. Luckily I didn't have to wait to be seated. I ordered 1. Montreal corned beef Benedict 2. Mint tea The food was average. Nothing to write home about But It did come very fast though I think you come for more of the nostalgia It did live up to their reputation It is a recommendation from me to come visit And If I was in the area, I would return, maybe order something else that would be more satisfactory. All in all, this establishment is a well deserved success story with all your diner greasy spoon vibes, food and environment.

Standards were set high from there on out as we loved Galaxie Diner. We loved the retro look and feel of the place, inside and out. Great, fun sign on the front. Indoors were 50's style tables and seating, very colorful and whimsical. The large murals and smaller art depicting stars and scenes from the 50's were fun and provided some good photo ops. Our server was so friendly and kind, amenable to a bit of conversation which was nice. They accommodated us to split a milkshake between two of us and anything else we asked for. The food was quite good, served hot and fresh. We wanted to visit again before our trip was done but time didn't allow us to. Prices were what you would expect. We would definitely recommend this establishment and will return when we visit Toronto again.

They're clear plastic but very cloudy looking. The menus have seen better days - definitely need new ones. I came with my husband and child, and split 2 breakfasts and 2 drinks. The waitress entered in the wrong protein choice for my meal and went to make the change, but my husband insisted in also eating & paying for the protein that was already made. This all came up to over $50! Very pricey for 2 breakfast meals... I couldn't eat the potatoes as they just tasted bland and overcooked. A ton of breakfast joints have popped up recently, and with the competition, Panagio's needs some upgrades to keep up. Staff were very friendly, and overall how can you go wrong with breakfast. It just wasn't anything special enough to make me want to come back over other places.

The interior is well decorated with banquet seating and chairs throughout. I imagine if it was busier it would be quite a happening spot. Service was attentive and food came out quickly (again it was not busy at all so would be shocked if it didn't). In terms of the menu- as a pescatarian who likes healthier options there wasn't lots items that stood out, in terms of protein items it would be limited to their salmon, poke bowl or shrimp cocktail. The shrimp cocktail was delicious, the salmon on beet salad was nothing memorable but also not bad at all. The truffle fries not the best either, the fried cauliflower was DELICIOUS but buttered, fried and drenched in a sweet sauce so definitely not healthy. My friends did love the tartar and commented on how well the steak was cooked. We finished with the chocolate cake and the carrot cake. The chocolate cake was super gooey- good but again nothing special. The carrot cake though was AMAZING. Would I come back? Probably not as there are better options out there but I'm glad I tried it!
