A couple Saturdays ago, I was running a few errands. Once I was done, I felt like visiting a diner for lunch. I did a search and found Poached Dreams Diner in Aurora. I didn't mind driving up from Markham to check it out. It was straightforward getting here. I parked in the parking lot and walked in from what looked like the back of the diner. There's also a front door with a patio that faces Wellington Street East. I was immediately greeted by a young, enthusiast woman. I let her know that I needed a table for one. She got me to a comfortable booth by the window. The catch is that you have to watch your step to get to your seat. It's a treat when I have breakfast out. I thought that I'd be getting french toast. Well, all that changed when I saw a heading for comfort foods on the menu. Nothing makes me happier than seeing open-faced sandwiches on a menu. It was probably during my days living in Winnipeg that I fell in love with such sandwiches and at least a side. New goal: come here and have every open-faced sandwich on the menu. I got cold water to start. It was refreshing and much needed after running errands. I ordered these items for my meal: - Diet Coke (2) - Hot turkey sandwich with mashed potatoes and veggies My Diet Coke came with a glass with ice. I loved it. I wish the can was larger! I needed a second can for dessert. I loved my hot turkey sandwich. There was a generous amount of sliced turkey smothered in sauce over a slice of white bread. I got to choose my starch. I went with mashed potatoes. There was enough gravy over the turkey that I dunked my spoonfuls of mashed potatoes into it. I loved the steamed veggies. They were perfectly cooked. They also went into the gravy. The meal was delicious. I'd order it again. I felt like dessert. I asked if there was any. Baklava with pistachios. I said yes. I thought that it would be a square or rectangle. Nope. I got a roll. Cool! It was perfect. It had the right amount of honey. It was crispy and yummy. So good! I paid my bill at the table. I tipped and then tapped my credit card. I elected to have the receipt texted to my phone, which also signed me up for its points program. Yay! I learned that this diner has been open since June 2025. I'm always late to any party because I seem to live under a rock or in a cave. I'm glad that I visited this eatery. Great food. Great service. Great! I used the washroom before I left. The women's washroom was clean and had a full-length mirror. This eatery is huge. It looks like there's a cafe for those grabbing coffee and maybe a snack before leaving. I look forward to returning for more good eats and drinks. (148)

Visited Poached Dreams Diner today for brunch. Located on Wellington St (previously Nino D'aversa),…read moreI was excited to visit the spot as I heard great things about the food. Upon entering, the space is super spacious and clean. My friend ordered their 2 egg special with bacon, and I ordered their soup and sandwich combo ($12/13). I decided to go with their tuna salad and chicken noodle soup. Upon recommendation from our server, I also ordered their cappuccino- it was very delicious. Amazing food and great service, I would like to come back and try some of their dinners dishes.

Keen to stop by as I saw a lot of good reviews for this place. Me and my partner are both love…read moreburgers so we were excited to come try. Really fun atmosphere, black and neon old school type of design. Prices were pretty good for the amount of food that you get! We had to wait a little bit before seating but there was a little fun arcade section so time passed a little bit. For the food Jalapeño burger - 7/10 It was a good burger, but there was nothing spicy about it. It tasted more like a great plain smash burger than anything. Retro blitz - 7/10 The two burgers tasted the same there was nothing two different to be honest that we could tell from eating. We added some dipping sauces to change up the flavor and the dipping sauces are pretty good. They're just on the little expensive side. You were able to choose any of the wings, sauces and get them on the side. Overall, a pretty great place if we were in the area and craving burgers would definitely stop by here again

They sell smash burgers, chicken burgers, tenders, wings, fries and shakes as their main items. The portions are pretty big, they give a lot of fries and their sandwiches are a good size. I got the Killer Bee and maybe because of how saucy it was, the chicken wasn't really crispy and lacked flavour. I'd want to give it another chance. The wing poutine was my favourite, it was so massive and I definitely had to save it for the next day. Atmosphere - 5/5 You walk in and immediately get transported back to the 80s in Miami. They really nailed down the retro miami vice diner vibe. There's limited seating as it's mainly a take out place. Service - 5/5 The staff here is incredibly friendly and nice. You can tell they're really invested in the place succeeding and are super helpful even during crowded times. They're very accurate about wait times and set expectations early. Will I go again? Yuppers! Need to get the wing poutine again and try the shakes! Lash's Recommendations -Wing poutine or any of the fries where you can add chopped tenders -Ana's cookout or Hot Spot combo but with either the classic crispy or nashville hot sandwich

But..... my gosh. The dishes looked nice. My niece said her food was okay. Her cousin said his food was overcooked. My dish was trash, my gosh, I couldn't stomach the taste. The salmon was tough, tasted bad, rank. The seasoning was weird and didn't pair well. It had some kinda spice that tasted odd. I don't even know what to say about it. But later that night I was throwing up well into the morning. I only eat possibly 3-4 small bites, most of the dish was left back. I still tipped and didn't complain as I just wanted the kids to have a nice night without arguing with whoever. As I write this I am reminded of the disgusting taste. NEVER again for that dish! Now that I think about it I honestly shouldn't have tipped. Paying for that dish was already above and beyond!
