Mars grand slam
Dianne B.

One of my favourite brunch spots whenever I'm in midtown! Definitely hits the spot after a long night out. The food is so yummy, the service is always good and the I love the classic diner aesthetic.

Strawberry Nutella Pancakes

One of my favorite brunch spots of all time. I love that all the menu items are space-themed and they play 60s hits. They've got a good amount of booths and 2-seaters. Good for group of 4 or less. The staff are quick and super friendly and accommodating. I'd definitely recommend this spot if you're uptown!

Red velvet cake

Ambiance: Its a casual diner with that typical diner look. Chrome & the colours are black, white & red. The diner is very narrow so be prepared to possibly bump into people. If you're claustrophobic this might not be the place for you. I wasn't able to count how many seats are in this restaurant. But I estimate about 20 seats. Service: Our waitress was friendly. Service was relatively quick. Food: The food was not impressive to me at all. I had the classic Mars burger. Hubby had the big bang burger. My burger had some kind of sauce that tasted odd to me. The burger patty was kind of small too. The fries were dry and overcooked. For dessert I asked for the red velvet cake. It was really dry and tasted like it was three days old. I would never eat here again. Washrooms were in the basement and clean. But very cramped. Tall and large people would have a hard time fitting in the ladies washroom stall. One of the stalls I went into was so close to my knees. I had to be careful. Otherwise, the door would have been pushed open by my knees. I really didn't like this place. I will I would not choose to eat here again. I came here because a friend chose this place for her birthday.

Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day. I was super excited to try this place, and I was so hungry that I ordered the grand slam- two eggs, three sausages, three pieces of bacon, potatoes, toast and a pancake. It was really good but nothing spectacular. The sausages were a little too oily. My boyfriend got the veggie omelette and said it was over cooked. Prices are pretty standard for an average breakfast meal.

Classic diner! Food: 4/5 Tasty breakfast. Service: 3/5 Fast and efficient. Environment: 4/5 Busy weekends. Classic feel. Washrooms: 4/5 Fine. Worth it?: 4/5 Came for a weekend brunch. It was fairly busy and we we're a group of 6. They do not have many tables for a group this size but we were able to sqeeze into one of the booths. The service was fast and efficient tho there was a hair in one of the waters. It was sorted quickly. The food was pretty good. The grand slam was tasty and the Mars mountain looked good however j was expecting a bigger mountain. With such epic names I guess I was just expecting to be super full. Still, I was quite satisfied. I would definitely come back the next time I am around.

Eggs Benedict, Nutella crepes, fruit salad

Ordered the eggs Benedict and the Nutella crepe. Very delicious! Great customer service and great food! Will keep going back.

the Mountain that rides!
Jared R.

super heavy but delicious breakfast. I had the Mars mountain which is everything; Bacon, Sausage, Pancakes, Hollondaise and Eggs.. It was on a dare and it might have taken 5 years off my life but so worth it. Service was very good too and even though the place was busy, it was prompt and nice. Its an old school dinner with the ambiance to match, but very unpretentious. Would go back.

Standard diner joint. Breakfast was fine, nothing that blew my mind. Best part was the dark rye toast since you rarely see that ever. My omelette lacked cheese, felt like after thought. Home fries pretty good. Service was good. Overall, it was just fine, nothing spectacular or out of this world like its name suggests.

The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure we were comfortable and well taken of throughout the entire meal. The food was absolutely delicious fresh, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. Every dish felt thoughtfully prepared, and the drinks were equally impressive. One of the best parts is the view you can actually see the CN Tower right from the restaurant, which makes the experience even more special and uniquely Toronto. It added such a beautiful touch to the evening. Overall, Siempre Restaurant exceeded my expectations. If you're in Canada and looking for incredible food, great service, and a stunning view, this is definitely the place to go. Highly recommend!

Pierina guided us via phone and even came outside of the restaurant and waved as we approached. That was awesome Customer service as well as kindness. Ambiance was chill inside. Especially liked the artwork and table with their name on it. I had the Nutella latte, Nutella and strawberry waffle, and a side of sausage. Didn't like the sausage at all (tasted a bit gamey) but that's probably because ein the states there are nitrates, etc that make it taste better. No biggie! She switched it out for bacon, and that was fine and appreciated. My sister had the breakfast tacos that looked delicious and she really enjoyed. All in all this was a great pick and I would return when im Canada ever again and I'm in the area. Keep up the great work, Pierina. Her welcoming attitude attentiveness and knowledge of the menu was stellar and warrants recognition. Thank you!!!

This cafe is small and while I was there it was definitely a tight squeeze. Where you order and where you pick up your drink isn't designed to allow for a good flow for customers, aside from that, I have no complaints. I ordered a latte and grabbed two goodies for the road, a raspberry croissant and a ginger molasses cookie. The staff working were welcoming and friendly and my items were ready rather quickly. Once I got back to my hotel, I settled in to enjoy and get some work done. My latte was smooth and creamy and just what I needed to get my day started. My raspberry croissant was beautiful and packed full of flavor. The filling wasn't too sweet and there was just the right amount inside. I saved my cookie for a snack while I traveled home later that day. I love how it had chunks of sugared ginger on top. The cookie had the perfect amount ​of chew to it and the ginger on top added an extra burst of ginger. It was lovely. I'm so glad I found this cafe on Yelp and I highly suggest you pay them a visit. I'm still dreaming of all the pastries I didn't get to try.

I got the traditional Benedict and was excited about the vegan sunny side up eggs. The photo on the menu was clearly of a non-vegan version bc as soon as I got my dish I knew it wasn't going to be good. Not only was there very little hollandaise, but it had no flavor at all. Neither did the eggs. It's like they figured out how to get the look and texture but gave up there. I couldn't eat them. And the bacon was also awful. It smelled like a bag of dog treats. I've had phenomenal vegan bacon at many places but whatever this was, was not good at all. Overall, it was very expensive and very disappointing.

All the staff in this facility were super nice and engaging our waiter Emre was fantastic. He definitely ensure our experience was top-notch from wobbly tables to changing cutlery. He definitely went above and beyond. As for the food I ordered Bobby does Dallas something and it was so much food, but it was incredible. You get to select the type of bread that you're gonna consume it with, ribeye thin strips were not overcooked - it was actually perfect and everything tasted so fresh honestly, I would definitely come back to get this dish again. Cousin had the salmon Benedict and she thoroughly enjoyed it. We also ordered pancakes, the lemon blueberry, one specifically. To me these pancakes if you were gonna take them with just base were very flat meaning no flavour the toppings the lemon blueberry compote sweet just wasn't for me to be honest. Overall good experience, long wait and probably come during the week rather than a weekend so I can make reservations.

In terms of accessibility it's a bit of a nightmare. The tables are really close to each other making it hard for me a a cane user to walk around. On the upside no stairs to get into the building or to use the washroom. It was rainy when I came here for brunch but the atmosphere inside was fun and vibrant! Definitely check it out for Brunch if you're going to the Well!

Atmosphere:Great music, stylish crowd, and the vibe is perfect for celebrations, anniversaries, birthdays, promotions, or date nights. Definitely pre-book if you can -- otherwise, expect to wait up to an hour for a table. ‍ Service:A bit slow (even with a reservation on a Wednesday), but the food came out fresh and everything tasted on point. Price:We spent $210 for two people. On the pricier side, yes -- but the whole experience makes it feel worth it. Just be mindful: it adds up fast. Would I go back?Absolutely. This place nails it for special nights with a view.
