Delicious food! Friendly service. We tried the Parisco sandwich, cheeseburger, seafood crepe and penne ala vodka. They make excellent martinis too! read more

After a sightseeing flight around Toronto, my cousin took me to one of his favourite neighbourhood places for lunch, Parisco Cafe. It's a small intimate place, located on the ground floor of a condo just east of Exhibition Place. I had a delicious creamy pasta dish with mushrooms, which included a salad. My cousin started with a French onion soup and a sandwich with fries. His eyes were bigger than his stomach and he ended up taking home half of the sandwich and most of the fries. Good food, good service, cozy environment with a patio for warmer times. 3.5/5.0 read more

Nice little cafe in an out of the way area with creative menu and small selection of beer and wine. Service is outstanding, attentive, and friendly. read more

LS and myself here now for light lunch before our flight duties. Walk here from airport was about 10 minutes. I'm doing the seafood crepes. LS just the fries and drink. Lovely lass attending. Nice setting/seating inside and out. We both prefer inside. Potato fries appear hand. Crepe is real good. Has a stew-like filling of the seafood. read more

Walked in, none of the staff were wearing masks. Food wasn't that great. Looked like something i could make myself at home.

Parisco Cafe is an excellent family owned cafe and convenience store. The chicken wraps and coffee taste like gold. The staff and owners are very welcoming they really do like to make their customers comfortable, feel welcomed and appreciated.. you will see check them out ! read more

I love this place. My Daughter and I have been coming here since she was in first grade, now she's in 5th grade. The café has delicious onion soup, pastries... you name it! It's in front of the park/water. The owners are beautiful and radiant. They make us feel welcomed every time! The aesthetic is lovely and the customers are all professionals. We are also a big fan of the convenience store next to it - they are connected. Svetlanna is THE best. She is always full of gratitude and emits this energy. These two places are our go-to :) read more

It's a nice enough place. On a weekend they'll ask you for $10 for a sizable omelette with a generous side of garden/ceasar salad or fries. Pretty good deal if you ask me. Through the week they offer a selection of pastries and fresh-made sandwiches that vary from meh to marvellous. Can't say I was enthused about waiting 15 minutes for a coffee without a word of apology or explanation. Free refills, though. That big TV hanging on the wall playing reality TV shows is pretty distracting. read more

Family owned and operated with charm and grace. Finally a great little cafe, lunch spot AND attached convenience store in the area!! :) :) :) Worth noting that the portions are rock solid and priced reasonably at $8-12 portfolio a meal. Yay! read more

I had the grilled salmon sandwich and it was great. The bread was really crunchy which made complimented the contents of the sandwich well. It he salmon and egg were really flavorful. The Caesar salad was solid. Just be ready for the wait if you don't get a croissant. Great breakfast food that will hold you over past average lunch times. read more

Amazing food at a hidden gem! My second time here and not only is the food great but the ladies that represent the place are even better! Extremely pleasant to deal with! Will be back for sure!!! read more

The worse service I had in Toronto. We arrived for lunch just after one on Saturday. The place was almost empty and we ordered a salad and a sandwich and two beer. While drinking the beers, the place started to fill up and we noticed that people who came later we're getting their meals before us. The waitress said she was sorry but I'm sorry that in this day a verbal I'm sorry is not enough when you give poor service. I paid for the beers and left. read more

We decided to order delivery (which was free because we're in the next building over) one rainy day and enjoyed two paninis with fries. The fries were really good but were very greasy. I got the goat cheese and red pepper one which was surprisingly heavy on the goat cheese. Most places skimp but this was just a bit too far on the other side. Definitely glad I gave them another chance. Yet to retry their pastries or coffee but our area totally needs a good lunch/takeout spot and I think this is a good fit! Looking forward to enjoying a drink on their patio (another thing the neighbourhood needed). read more

I live in the building this cafe opened in and we are quite happy it is here. The owners are incredibly warm and welcoming and it is a very cozy and modern atmosphere. They have a lineup of salads, pastries, coffees, panini's and main dishes. They seem to rotate what they offer which keeps it fresh and each time you come in. Everything I have ordered so far from here has been excellent and hand made. They seem to do it all from scratch which is how I like it! My last order was a Ricotta Toast with a salad which was quite tasty. Simple, elegant and tasty dishes. I'm a fan. read more

Came here for lunch awhile back. Had the croque Monsieur. Was good and very fresh. Good service as well. Only downside was I found it a bit on the pricey side. But hey, what do you expect from Condo Land? read more

I lived very close to Parisco Cafe and have started coming here often, usually to work on my laptop. The staff is very friendly and the prices are great. It's also a very nice environment. Seating is comfortable, lots of natural light, there are enough outlets, and supposedly there is wifi (I use my own). The food is also very good, which I'll admit I wasn't expecting. I get the black bean patties, which are vegan, a couple times a week. They are made in-house, served with two kinds of salad, half of avocado, and topped with coconut milk. Most importantly, they are delicious--and conveniently healthy! Recently, I came for brunch with family and everyone seemed happy with their food. The menu is varied enough that there is something for everyone. I just with they had more vegan options! read more

Hello Everyone that lives in Fort York be aware of this place!!!!! Cold cheap coffee. Old rotten smelly pastries.. Very expensive on top. I live in this neighbourhood and I I have given them 3 chances.. NO MORE. All 3 visits I was disappointed They shouldn't be in business. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE. Horrible Horrible Horrible read more

I have been living in the Fort York area for 2-3 years now and always missed having a coffee shop in the neighborhood. PARISCO is not just any coffee shop but one that you feel at home and the staff is warm and friendly. There have delicious freshly baked goods and every meal(bf,lunch n dinner) thats absolutely yummy! Prices are afforadable and service is great. Best part of it is the owner Martin who always welcomes you with a smile....I would give 5/5 starts for service, food and staff.. read more

Very happy to have come across this place from a good friend of mine who lives in building. I am a bit disappointed in some of the reviews. Most of the negativity has been around waiting times. You may have ended up waiting a bit longer than your fast coffee Tim Horton's or fast food Mcdonald's but if time is of the essence, it may be best to mention you are in a bit of a hurry. Fresh coffee and fresh food is what you receive here. Larger than average portioned meals. Family owned and operated. Prices are exceptional. I have tried many things on the menu and love each and every one of them. They now have two TV's up to watch sporting events and a new outdoor patio. The first time may have not been the charm but I guarantee your second time will be! read more

Had brunch today: Parisco omelette with mixed green salad. Food is good, coffees are excellent. They're still kinda working out the kinks but I'm sure this place will be outstanding once it gets rolling. They also have a little patio outside with about a dozen tables. read more

I was here for brunch yesterday. Great little spot close to home. They were accommodating at substituting different items (my friend wanted Swiss cheese in her omelette instead of Brie). I got a brownie to go and that was delicious too. Just a cute place to get some good cafe food and it helps that it's close to the Watercity Condos. read more

Good little cafe in the neighborhood that does not really have anything else around. Friendly owners and staff, good food (a little pricey but it is a small business and rent and wages are not cheap these days). If you are a coffee connoisseur you might not enjoy a cup here, otherwise it's a pretty good blend. Especially would like to point out their omelettes: huge, fluffy and come with an amazing side salad! read more

This is a rock solid cafe with great coffee, an outstanding house salad, and great sandwiches. The grilled salmon is so good. I have been coming here every day during the Pan American Games, and have yet to be disappointed. Great food with great customer service! read more

I live in the condo above Parisco Cafe and it is so convenient and delicious. The prices are great and the people who work there are super friendly. The market which is attached to the cafe recently opened and the prices are a little bit steeper but that's to be expected with the convenience of a store in a condo. The food is always fresh and great and I love how they bake everything themselves. Croissants, goat cheese salad, smoked salmon Sammy, omelettes and pasta ai fungi are personal faves. I'm in here at least once a week and will continue to be. read more

I love the cafe and the market place run by the nicest people and food is always good

I love this place. It has a great ambience with friendly people. Both food and coffee are fresh with good price. Can't wait to have breakfast here! read more

Very good food, very friendly staff. Makes me feel like I'm with a little family. Their chicken Schnitzl tastes like the real European one, the potato salad is the best I've had and so is the fish. The service is personal. read more

Had a couple great omelettes and they made a one off sandwich for my kid. Food prep was slowish but expected as things were being made to order we were the only ones in the place for late breakfast. Good food and service but wouldn't want to be here when it's super busy unless they staff up at these times. read more

I ordered an iced coffee and they gave me hot coffee on ice. By the time I paid for it, the ice was melted and I was left with watered down lukewarm coffee. This place is brutal. Please don't waste your money here. read more

For a new place in such a small community, it lacks friendliness and basic comfort. Every time I go in, that blonde woman has an awful fowl look on her face, no manners whatsoever. I asked her the wifi code politely and she slammed the post it down on the counter. It's over priced and they're lucky there isn't much else in competition around them. read more

A solid 4 stars. Like most of the other reviewers, I live next door and frequent this place out of convenience. Solid food, decent prices. They fall short on service, I can't tell you how many times I've stood at the counter without being acknowledge for what seems like an eternity. I mean, I don't expect service in a snap, but it doesn't take much to tell people that you'll be with them them shortly. read more

Moved to the area and the place is a convenient walking distance, which is what it's designed for. Had a warmed up soggy quiche and a very tiny cappuccino for about $15, and didn't want to stay long because the chairs (while cool looking) are super uncomfortable and the wrong height for the rest of the furniture. If you're looking for a quick coffee and a baked good I'd swing by, but otherwise it's worth the walk to go someplace else. read more

Living in the area, I have to say Parisco has been a near life saving addition to my days. The atmosphere is extremely fresh and vibrant, with an adorable patio and very comfortable seating inside with free wifi and a flatscreen for news updates etc with your morning coffee. The menu is so unique with an amazing variety of baked goods, salads, panini's, crepes and a rotating feature menu- all with a European twist. You can smell the bread being baked while you're ordering and even get a glimpse of the large kitchen behind the counter where everything is made fresh in house. I have definitely turned into a regular here, it feels like a little home outside of home- and above everything else, the staff treats you like family. I have loved every meal and experience Ive had at this wonderful cafe, and am so happy Parisco has contributed to having neighbourhood vibe develop in the area!!! My favourite dishes are the Onion and Goat Cheese Quiche, and the Lady in Red Salad. read more

I have always loved dining here and the food has been great, however after a recent experience it is clear that the staff practice poor hand hygiene. The woman preparing my meal (and is usually the one in the kitchen) licked her fingers and then proceeded to touch my food while plating it. Then the other lady helped add ingredients to the meal without washing her hands after stocking a shelf. I was standing at the cash and could see everything. This is completely disgusting and unacceptable for any food establishment. It is too bad since I have really enjoyed eating here in the past. read more

The food and coffee was pretty good but they only took cash and were not quick to serve when I walked in. Also they were not loyal to their Yelp checkin coupon, saying that it was over...not so great customer service for a new place. read more

This place was very comfortable and warm when I went inside. I ordered the coffee and a small piece of pastry and it was very well prepared and made. The price was affordable and very welcoming to anyone who want to try. Over all my experience was amazing, the food was really good and the service was really nice. I was served by a man who was very funny and nice (which is a plus!). I would give this cafe a 5/5 stars. read more
