    Satay vermicelli noodle soup, curry beef with rice, pineapple bun
    Helen T.

    It was so good, I went back two days in a row! I went to their Richmond Hill location many years back, and never tried again. I thought their food was mediocre. Decided to give their North York location a try, and boy was I surprised by their food!! Ordered again the next day to confirm the quality is consistent... and I am pleased!! The only con about this location is that there is only one small table for two people. This location serves mostly take out/ delivery.

    I remembered someone saying there was a famous hk spot near Yonge and Finch that sold breakfast items, so I decided to give it a try. This location is basically takeout only, but there is one table that might be vacant. Ordered a pineapple bun combo which comes with a variety of different options that go with your bun, plus their award winning milk tea. Also ordered a satay beef noodle soup combo, where you can choose the type of noodles you like, and it also comes with an egg sandwich and a cup of milk tea. All of the items were fresh and delicious. The pineapple bun combo is only $8.50, which is a great deal. Definitely worth trying

    One of the best Hong Kong Milk Tea in Toronto. Food wise, their best dishes are Hainan Chicken Rice and Baked Pork Chop Rice with Cheese. It's a good unique addition to the Yonge/Finch area food scene.

    Marathon Cafe finally opened in our neighbourhood! Yay! This is almost like the Chinese Starbucks to milk tea with authentic Chinese snacks and food. The existing locations are at Scarborough and Richmond hill. This new North York location is take outI, three weeks later dine in is available (3 seats only) It used to be a takeout bubble tea, so the space is small. Pick up and go type of concept. Grand opening discount if you order from the online link, it is 25% off until March 5th (Cash only) We ordered the corn and egg sandwich with drink $8.55. Flavour wise was tasty but the corn made the bread a little moist. The Luncheon Meat & Egg Sandwich Combo with Drink (20oz) $9.05. The cold milk tea and lemon ice tea is good as always, except I will ask for less ice next time. I think the milk tea always tasted better than the lemon ice tea even at the other locations. Definitely glad Marathon cafe landed in my neighbourhood. Welcome to the hood Marathon Cafe!

    Yay, finally, as I am Hong Kong Style tea fever, there is a shop near Yonge and Finch has the best HK tea in town! This tiny take out shop is on finch west North of finch. There is no Decorations at all in the shop and has tiny wait area. As this is takeout shop, I don't mind it does not have any. I am most concern if the tea is as good as in Scarborough main shop. I ordered satay noodle with egg sandwich with tea set and rice noodle with tea. Finally it tastes like authentic HK style . YES! No need to go to Scarborough for authentic HK casual food. There is no parking on finch. However, I believe you can just quickly drop the car on the side street for the pickup. Or order delivery. Update: got instant noodle for breakfast. Noodle is too soft. Sad.

    sausage, egg instant noodle, 20oz hk tea

    I've been to Marathon in Richmond Hill a few times so had a good sense of what I was getting into here. Marathon's been the place I always remember when they won the award for the best HK Tea. The unfortunate thing is their their prices are high and their food is average. That hasn't changed. I was in the area and craving HK food and one of the good things going for Marathon is that it opens early. Most HK style cafes don't open until 10-11AM. Maybe that's how they charge so much. This location is one of those street facing styles near Yonge/Finch, only take-out. No room inside for sitting or even waiting really. So I ordered an instant noodle, sausage+egg combo. Comes with a 20oz drink. Came to about $12-13. It's pricey. The drink is enough of 2 ppl, not sure why they don't offer a smaller size. Quality wise, it's decent. Can't go wrong with instant noodle as long as they don't cheap out on the brand. The HK tea is good as always. The only downside is the pricing.

This small shop located in Leslieville serves up some great sandwiches in a space that is primarily take out only (although there are a few bar/counter spots if you'd like to eat there. They are also open daily from 11am to 9pm. Menu wise, there are 9-10 kinds of sandwiches to choose from. They are all served on a sesame kaiser roll and cut in half. You're also able to add on ingredients on top of the already selected ones in the sandwiches. Each of Lambo's Deli locations also have a special sandwich, where this time when I went, it was the crispy chicken club. They also have soft serve as well (rotating flavours!). I stopped by Lambo's Deli on a Monday morning before the lunch rush and opted to grab: - Italian trio sandwich (soppressata, mortadella, prosciutto, fresh mozzarella, roasted red peppers, picked red onion, arugula, pesto, Calabrian chili spread) - $18 - Soft serve (flavour was hojicha) -$5 Service was friendly and I received my soft serve while waiting for my sandwich to be prepared. It took about 5 min and it was nicely packed. Staff were great and handed me a handful of napkins as well. I ate my sandwich an hour later and before opening the packaging, the sandwich was pretty heavy! Looking at a cross section of the sandwich, it was packed with ingredients! The Italian Trio sandwich was delicious. The roasted red peppers, pickled red onion, arugula, and Calabrian chili spread added freshness to the sandwich which didn't make it feel so heavy with all the deli meats inside as well as the mozzarella cheese. The sandwiches are big and I could only finish half for lunch. Overall, a delicious sandwich shop in Leslieville. Lambo's Deli definitely packs a lot of ingredients in their sandwiches which make for a tasty meal. Be warned, the sandwiches are huge! Also...don't miss out on their soft serve too!

They're well packed with ingredients, and cut in 1/2 if you want to eat 1/2 and save the other for later. Cute deli decor. While it's mainly take out, there's a small counter to sit at if you can score a spot. Nice side options if you want to make it a meal (pop and chips). You won't go hungry here!

I believe it was the owner who was also there preparing the food. A wonderful, hospitable man and you know you're getting the dish the way it's intended.

The owner and staff are very friendly and deeply care about providing high quality and tasty food and amazing service. We ordered "The New Orleans Eggs Benedict", "Triple Stack Pancakes", "Belgian Waffle" and "Real Swiss Mushroom Burger". We mixed and matched our pancakes and chose blueberry, chocolate chip and banana and all 3 were delicious. The New Orleans Egg Benedict had a nice caviar topping and was served with a generous portion of seasonal fruits. The waffle was delicious and fresh, served with fruits. The burger was one of the best burgers I've had. The beef patty was juicy, tender and perfectly seasoned. The restaurant has a cozy vibe. There's ample parking spots available in front of the restaurant.

Everything here is made fresh and you can easily tell they're using high quality ingredients. The place is small but cozy with an open concept kitchen. It gets busy regardless of what time you come, so be prepared to wait. The food was absolutely incredible, making the wait perfectly worthwhile. I was excited to try their panuozzo since this is what I mostly ate when we went to Italy. Crudo's Mortadella Panuozzo rival those panuozzo we tried in Italy. We ordered the Mortadella panuozzo and A'Patata and Americana pizza to try. I really love and enjoyed the panuozzo! The combination of the crusty bread, savoury mortadella with the sweet, nutty creaminess of the pistachio paste and richness of the stracciatella translates beautifully into a perfect, gourmet and comforting sandwich. It will transport you straight to Rome. The potato pizza is one of the most surprisingly delicious pizzas you'll ever try. You can tell they're using top quality ingredients judging by how the pizza was fresh and flavourful. The crispy crust topped with creamy mozzarella (fior di latte) and chunks of soft roasted potatoes perfectly complements the salty and savoury ham (prosciutto cotto). And to cap off a great meal, we ordered the Cafe Cream using Kimbo coffee. This dessert is rich and velvety - the perfect sweet finish to a rich meal. I highly recommend this place to any food enthusiast.
