Fantastic. I wish it was closer to my house so I could go weekly. I love the whole menu. Everything is delicious and reasonably priced. I had the breakfast and everything was perfect. It was busy but we were able to get a seat no problem. The only thing I didn't love was that my iced latte wasn't very a strong. I noticed someone at a table beside me also ordered an extra shot for theirs too. It's just a bit too milky, not enough coffee flavour. read more

The food was good - I ordered the salmon. However I don't quite like the spot. It seems a little pretentious and is too expensive for what it is. Just not for me ... read more

I ordered the curry soup that had chicken, quinoa and vegetables. I expected the broth to be a bit more hearty, and it was bland. The veggies were good however the next time I'm there I'll try something else on the menu. I also ordered a tea and together it was around $20. For that price I expected more. read more

This is such a cute spot! The food was very tasty. Highly recommend the Mediterranean bowl to which I added a chicken breast to. Portion size with a little small for the price, but the ingredients are fresh. The lemon brew was also so delicious and refreshing. I look forward to trying other items off the menu. Would definitely recommend! read more

Everything about this place screams fresh, healthy and clean. The ambiance of the restaurant reflects the food with clean lines and minimalist decor. The food is good. The service is good. I've now gotten both eat in and take out and tried everything from steak and mac n cheese to tofu and quinoa. Each main and side comes with tons of flavour. It's food you can feel good about eating and enjoy at the same time. Also, the maple ginger lemonade is delish! The only downfall is it can be a bit expensive. That and the iced Toronto fog felt watery to me. read more

I have lived in the area for years and have been meaning to try this place out for a while now, but have just never got around to it. Well, yesterday I finally checked it out and I'm glad I did. The main concept is mix-and-match a protein with various sides. You can also just get some side dishes if you are so inclined. You enter your order at the front and wait for your order to be called. It's a relatively quick process and takes around 10 minutes. I ordered my food for takeout, but they have both indoor and outdoor seating available if you want to eat-in. The food is fresh. I ordered flank steak with two sides of roasted sweet potatoes and grilled broccoli. The steak was cooked well and quite tender. My only gripe is that I felt there was not enough of it. The sides on the other hand were quite plentiful. Both the sweet potatoes and broccoli were ideally cooked with a nice amount of seasoning. The sides were actually probably the star of he meal. Overall, wholesome tasty food. I would just like a bigger serving of protein. read more

Mary Be Kitchen - Flank steak with sides of roasted sweet potatoes and grilled broccoli. - Canadian (New) Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Mary Be Kitchen is heaven for clean and healthy eating. The interior is modern and bright, perfect for breakfast, brunch, or lunch. This place tends to be busy all the time, and even more so during peak meal times (lunch period on weekdays, brunch hours on weekends). It can get pretty loud inside and getting a table is first come, first served. A lot of people come to pick up take-out orders (which you can place online for convenience). There is a separate line for take-out order pick-ups, and a different line for placing dine-in orders. In addition to the open-space dining area, they have a small grab-and-go fridge and freezer for housemade grocery items such as soups, stews, salmon burger patties, granola, guacamole, ready-to-bake cookie doughs, etc. The menu is simple - you get to pick combos, individual items, or a mix of their protein, salads, stews, and side offerings. Vegan and vegetarian options are plenty. My favourite sides are the Kale & Red Cabbage Caesar Salad (with Greek yogurt dressing instead of the typical Caesar salad dressing), roasted sweet potatoes, masala-roasted cauliflower (with roasted red onions and fresh cilantro), and grilled broccoli. If you want something warm, they have stews (such as the vegan Red Lentil Dal and seasonal soup). Review of the menu items tried: 1) Grilled Salmon - Perfectly crisp on the outside and velvety well done in the inside. Perfect portion (not too big and not too small either). 2) Kale & Red Cabbage Caesar Salad - The sunflower seeds gave a nice crunch, and the Greek yogurt dressing was tangy. 3) Masala-Roasted Cauliflower - LOVE this side! The roasted red onions and fresh cilantro complemented the cauliflower really well, and I could taste the masala in every bite. 4) Roasted Sweet Potatoes - Smooth, with skin on. It came with "sunshine sauce" which was spicy, but luckily they served this on the side by default. 5) Red Lentil Dal - It came in a good-sized bowl, with a layer of turmeric rice underneath and served with fresh cilantro. Perfect for winter when you want something warm and soothing. On the weekends, they have a special brunch menu. Everything can be made vegan by substituting eggs with tofu, and you can customize each dish with sides / add-ons. Drinks selection includes smoothies, lattes, and assorted coffee and tea. read more

Delicious, high-quality whole foods that are both healthy and satisfying. Everything tastes fresh and thoughtfully prepared. Prices are a bit on the higher side, but for the quality and clean ingredients, it feels worth it as an occasional treat. A great spot when you want something nourishing without sacrificing flavor. read more

Always great healthy dishes and the service here is excellent. Great place to also grab a coffee and work on your computer!

This is such a friendly place to enjoy breakfast. There is ample indoor seating as well as a couple of tables outside. It's bright and cheerful, with several gluten-free options for meals as well as desserts. I ordered the lavender latte with almond milk, and it was delicious. I also ordered the weekender meal with poached eggs, adding locally smoked salmon, and subbing gluten-free toast. I was impressed with everything on my plate, and took the salad, and part of the salmon and sweet potatoes home because I was so full. I bought a morning glory cookie to try later. I am actually eating it now, and it is so moist and delicious! I am enjoying the contrast between the chewy inside and the crunchy outside. I enjoyed the salad for lunch, and loved the contrasts between the different parts of it. It wasn't just dressed lettuce. It also had shredded carrots, slivers of fresh asparagus, and was topped with pepitas. read more

I ordered the jasmine tea Lemonade and this was tasty in the summer heat. it was on the sour side but that's how it was likely meant to be. i wish there was an option to sweeten it because I prefer sweeter drinks.

--The Down Low-- Food: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Quality vs. Price: 5/5 Vibe: 4.5/5 I came here on a Sunday around noon for lunch with a group of friends. The eatery runs on an order-and-sit style format, so seating is first-come-first-served and no reservations are taken. After ordering at the counter, you will get an order number for your table and staff will bring the food to you. Staff were kind, patient, and delivered great service! I ordered the Be Square combo (1 protein + 2 sides), with the chicken breast and salsa verde for protein, as well as the grilled asparagus salad and the turmeric rice for the sides. Portion sizes were extremely generous! The taste was satisfying and felt akin to enjoying a nice homecooked meal. I did not feel any heaviness or discomfort, even with such a large serving size. The atmosphere was really nice. Decor was cheerful and cozy, and I found the layout intuitive to navigate. Washrooms were also well-kept. There is a decent amount of seating indoors and on a small outdoor area, but was quite full when I went. Given that seating is self-served, the only drawback I would comment on is that the seating available was not the most efficiently used because there would be empty seats at tables that were occupied by one or two customers, so larger groups may have trouble finding seats together. The total cost came to about $24 CAD. I would say it is a bit more expensive as a casual lunch spot, considering the order-and-sit format - as opposed to a full-service restaurant; however, the price is on par with a typical weekend brunch and the quality and preparation of the food, as well as the large portion size, justify the price in my opinion. I enjoyed my experience at this eatery and would definitely come again if I was in the area! read more

Unexpectedly good meal in a plain quiet comfortable setting at St Clair and Yonge. No pressure, attentive staff, your meal is served at your chosen table. Both of us are vegetarian and the dishes were delicious, plenty large and many choices. Meat options too. I plan to come back again. read more

Went to MBK for brunch with a friend. No tables available. So we decided to wait. We were told it's first come first served. But none of the staff help direct guests or provide numbers to ensure there's order in getting seated. We saw one table with 3 kids working their laptops- all they had at the table was a bottle of water while guests continued to wait for a table. Even diners are better organized! Then we're told to go in the line up at the counter where they said if your order arrives before you get a table you should take your food to go! What a dump. Would not recommend this place to anyone. Do not waste your time or your money.wish there was an option to give zero stars read more

Met up with a friend for brunch and I was looking forward to a healthy meal. We ordered at the counter and grabbed our number for the table. I usually gravitate towards meats but today I wanted to make veg focused choices. The lunch/brunch combos offer so many possibilities. Do you want cold or warm sides? Steak, fish, chicken, tofu? Maybe a soup with salad? I was so pleased with my quinoa salad (so much more than just quinoa) and roasted cauliflower. Surprisingly filling and tasted great! The soup was a minestrone full of vegetables. It seems like the menu changes depending on the season. The restaurant is bright and spacious with plenty of seating. The service was really good. Your order is delivered to your seat and cleaned up when you're done. I'd definitely recommend this place for a casual meet up. read more

Wow. A clean modern cafe with tons of wholesome nutritious menu offerings, vegan and bakery options in Toronto? It really exists and it's at Mary Be Kitchen. Love the expansive interior dining room and covered open patio option. The service here is genuine and lovely. People enjoy working here and it shows. Lots of options for bakery, breakfast, lunch entrees and anything in between. Tried the avo smash breakfast with poached egg and earl grey tea. Service to your table. Dine at your leisure to the start of an awesome day. Zen like experience. See you again soon! read more

Mary Be Kitchen - Avo smash toast with poached egg - Canadian (New) Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

What a lovely place! Came here for brunch with my friends, and I absolutely adored it. The service is quick, the food is very affordable, and delicious! I ordered the smashed avo plate which came with grilled tofu. I really liked it, and I especially liked how this place did not skimp on the amount of avocado. The grilled tofu was also super unique and provided a great vegan option :) My favourite thing was the chocolate chip cookie. I won't lie, I have my fair share of CCC throughout my life, but this one was possibly the best cookie I've ever had. It was so fresh, with a little bit of crunch but a nice chew, it wasn't too thin but it wasn't too dense, nor was it too sweet. It was a perfect combination of gooey yet it still had structure. I would come again just for that cookie!! The ambience was also super nice, and there was no rush to get up to leave. I would definitely come here again!! 10/10 :) read more

Ok, so I was recommended this place by a friend of mine. And I wasn't expecting much because I was just looking to pick up food and go. To be honest my first impression of this place was pretty cool, cafe~like, sit yourself down and have a coffeee, do some work, catch up with an old friend type vibe. Or grab lunch on the go. Either way. I could kick with it! Anyways I came in and ordered a protein with two sides. I got the chicken, Mac n cheese and the chopped winter salad. Mmm! I also ordered an iced coffeee on the side. (They even offer almond milk on the side!) Everything was super healthy. Clean. And I appreciate options such as these in the city. I recommend this place if you're looking to grab healthy eats and/or a quick lunch with a friend. This place is environmentally friendly! Their straws are biodegradable. They don't use plastic bags for take out, and their boxes are recyclable! They have a water dispenser at the cutlery area and support less waste :) I appreciate the small things and details about places like this! 5/5! read more

This place is a true neighborhood gem. Excellent good quality, delicious and healthy food.

What a cute restaurant! The decor is inviting and comfortable with a couch and patio area for people watching. The staff are super friendly which probably doesn't mean much in Canada. But when your city jokes about it being the City of Brotherly Shove, the friendliness, helpfulness, and kindness is a much appreciated change. Now, great service doesn't mean anything if the food isn't good as well. But here, Mary Be food that is not only health and nutritious, but portions that are balanced and correctly sized. read more

I've been hesitant to order from here because the prices were a bit steeper, but my god is it worth it.

Can't wait to order again! read more

Mary Be Kitchen - Salmon, kale and cabbage Caesar, grilled broccoli. SO GOOD - Canadian (New) Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

One of the best options in the city if you're looking to err more on the side of healthy, whole food meals. Super duper pricey, however I've found the Be Square to be very filling - I tend to finish off the protein in one sitting but have to keep half the sides for another meal later. Highly recommend the flank steak, sweet potatoes & masala cauliflower, the seasoning/sauces are delicious. The weekender breakfast is also a great option - the sourdough gets olive oil instead of butter on it, which I love for us lactose people. I do it up with poached eggs & add the flank steak for a protein-packed meal. Their cappuccino unfortunately doesn't do it for me - their espresso is super tart & sharp, not smooth. However the hot apple cider with cinnamon on top is great for a cold day. All in all, Mary Be is a place I continuously come back to. Everyone who works there is kind & the place has a nice fresh atmosphere. read more

I ordered salmon, asparagus salad, grilled avocado and cauliflower. I hope this was all 100% organic as it was quite expensive. The salmon was ok but a very small portion. The avocado was fine. The cauliflower didn't taste fresh and was sweet and too greasy for my liking. I asked to be contacted if anything had grain in it. The asparagus salad had quinoa but I wasn't contacted, so I can't eat that. $35 for this small, ok-ish meal was way too much. Needs to be fresher and more refined flavours with less grease (though the asparagus salad did look nice and fresh). It'd be really helpful if all ingredients were listed under the dishes so customers can choose appropriately. I won't order again. I can get fresher, less greasy from Impact Kitchen. read more

Mary Be Kitchen - Grilled chicken "Be Square" box - Canadian (New) Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

This is one of my favourite places to dine in mid-town. Their food is really second to none, in both in flavour and experience. Sometimes, when I dine out, I have a terrible experience after the meal - usually due to excessive salt used, but that is never the case with Mary Be Kitchen. Their food is tasty and healthy, and they have a great selection of dine-in options (and also take home/pantry/freezer options, as well). I usually get their Be Square option with 1 protein and 2 sides. I really like all their protein options, but I don't think the fish is worth the additional $$$. My favourite sides are the Mac n Cheese, Roast Sweet Potatoes (love their sauce!), turmeric rice, kale cesar salad and roasted cauliflower. In the summer, they rotate in some lighter options, and I always go for their summer green beans. I find their brunch portions to be a bit lacking in portion size, as I usually frequent this place after a hot yoga session and I am starving. I need to supplement my brunch with a cookie - which is not the end of the world, but when you add total the cost of coffee + brunch main + cookie plus TIP - brunch is now upwards of $30 per person. A bit steep for brunch if you ask me. But their salted chocolate chip cookies is amazing, so there's that. For take-out, I love their Be Together option. Even though we are a household of two, I love it for leftovers. You cannot go wrong with Mary Be Kitchen! read more

I met a friend here for breakfast after seeing their menu online. I'd never eaten here before as I'm not usually in the area for breakfast. So I wasn't entirely sure what to expect. I do like this place. It's bright & airy decor is very refreshing. There is a range of ages for the people that eat here. We had a family with kids, 20somethings, and up. Their food is healthy. But I do think it's a bit pricey. Wait service is kind of like Nando's where you order at the front cash & pay. Then they bring your meal to your table after giving you a number. Service was pretty quick. My toast was too toasted (black on edges) but still edible. Portions aren't that big but that's okay with me. I don't eat a big breakfast. They are open early at 7am & close around 9pm. They do serve dinner & lunch as well. I might try their steak sometime. I would eat here again but only occasionally. read more

We discovered this place while walking around the St. Clair area. Definitely glad to have stopped by for dinner! Unlike many restaurants, we did not end up feeling greasy or bloated afterwards. The food was delicious and was reasonably priced. The restaurant itself is beautifully decorated - it is part café, part dining space. The dishes themselves are customizable - you pick your side(s) and protein. I got the chicken with masala rice and cauliflower and it was delicious! One thing that I've noticed was that the food didn't make me feel bloated like 90% of restaurants here do. I felt very satisfied and energized after my meal. Would definitely be coming back again! read more

Stopped in for a healthy breakfast and was not disappointed! Pretty decent prices for super healthy food that also just tasted delicious. My wife had the Sunriser Breakfast, which was much more stew like than I expected (though I guess I should've realized based on the description) and it was awesome. I had the California Breakfast which was also great and pretty filling for it being mostly a salad. Dressing was a bit sour though so apply carefully! read more

We re in Toronto visiting our daughter. We were doing s little exploring with her and she wanted to try this place because if it's vegetarian and heathy options. It's right off a Main Street. The restaurant consists of one room with a mixture of two and four person table options. ThEre were also a few booths along the street window. There was also one bigger table for one larger group. The interior is brightly lit. One wall is wallpapered adding to the bright decor. Like many of today's food options you walked up to the counter and placed your order. You then found a table and your food is brought to you. From order to delivery was done quickly. There was a breakfast option but that stopped after 11:00 am so I didn't check it out. My party all ordered the same option which was the be square which was about $15.00. It came with a choice of two warm sides and a protein. Your protein options included chicken with a green salsa, salmon, flank steak or tofu. My wife and I opted for the chicken while my daughter chose salmon. Choices for the warm sides included roasted Brussels sprouts, chili roasted broccoli, Mac & cheese and several others. We all opted for the Brussels sprouts and chili roasted broccoli. The chicken was moist with some green salsa on the top. The portions for the broccoli and Brussels sprouts were both sizable as side orders. Both side orders were tasty and nothing nicely roasted. I think my daughter discovered an excellent food option for her and her husband. I'm sure this will also b come an option for us when in town. read more

Had lunch at Mary B Kitchen yesterday... Ambiance is great. This cafe reminds me of all the great LA cafes...open, airy, beautifully decorated, and so clean. Service is fine. You order at the register and then food is delivered to your table. Cashiers are nice. Food is very good but portions are tiny. I mean tiny! I was still hungry after my Avocado Toast and had to order a second (and I'm 100 pounds if that tell you anything). Also, didn't love the limited weekend menu...I wish their website had indicated they don't offer their full menu on Saturdays. Prices are bit high for portion size, but I do love the sustainable, organic concept and am willing to be extra for that. Overall I'd return to Mary Be Kitchen, just likely on a weekend so I can try the non-breakfast items as well. read more

Mary Be be pretty great! Although relatively new to the scene, Mary Be Kitchen has already established itself as a favourite amongst the folks in my office. Me personally, I like to get the mac 'n cheese and the quinoa salad as my sides and the grilled chicken as my protein. Everything comes up to about $17 with taxes and all, making it a pricier option for lunch. However, I'd argue that you get what you pay for and much more! Pretty much all of the sides are excellent (especially the roasted cauliflower, mac 'n cheese, sweet potato, and quinoa salad), and the proteins are no slouch either. I've heard great things about the tofu, but I can't bring myself to order it when it comes time to pull the trigger. The portions are pretty generous, so you won't find yourself going hungry soon after your meal. If you're looking to treat yourself to a health-conscious meal for lunch or dinner, I'd definitely give Mary Be a try. You won't be disappointed. read more

This is one of the cutest cafe/restaurant I've been too. The atmosphere makes your dinning experience very cozy. I've been here twice and their food is great! I always love going out and buying healthier options. My second time here, we decided to go here to discuss planning our trip to Vancouver.

Love the steak with the turmeric rice and avocado. I'll order that all day long. So delicious and satisfying yet healthy!

This is my favourite new brunch spot in Toronto. Really nice variety of healthy, yet tasty items to build a hearty meal from. The Dahl is an absolute must have, as is the delicious avo toast. You can add poached eggs to either, which are done, as you like, to perfection. Oh and the Kale Caesar is beautiful, and perfectly dressed (don't get dressing on the side!). The grilled tofu is one of the best tofu dishes you will ever have. Marinated in a gingery marinade, then grilled, then finished with scallions and such. Also don't forget to try the espresso bar, as well as the cold drinks on tap, like kombucha and house made fresh sodas, very refreshing on a hot day. Decor is pure bliss, very clean yet interesting and calming for that afternoon latte while you read your book in one of the comfy chairs in the seating area. Location is great, just a few steps from St Clair station, off of Yonge St. Must try! read more
