Definitely a place I'd come back to, especially with friends.

My only criticism is that it was a bit on the salty side, which overshadowed the natural flavor of the beef. The restaurant itself was pleasant and offered good value for the price point.

Overall, it was a decent experience, and I'd consider coming back to try some of the other items on the menu.

My favorite Thai food place in Toronto!! Came on a Saturday night and expected a long line, but…read morethey said it was going to be a 30-45 minute wait for a party of 6. We actually got called in around 20 minutes though, which was great. They asked us if we were okay with a shared/communal table, so maybe that's why it was faster, but the shared tables are not bad at all. We ended up getting seated right in front of the TV while a FIFA game was going on, so the vibes were great. The staff were also super friendly and would stop by to watch and chat for bits at a time. Every time I come, I always order the pad thai and the khao soi. The pad thai is amazing and not too sweet or sour. The khao soi was also delicious and the braised beef was so tender. For drinks, I ordered the Thai iced tea, which is a little on the sweeter side, but was great once the ice melted a little bit. Overall great food, great vibes, would definitely come back!!

The chicken wings were made particularly tasty from the dipping sauce, The beef pad see ew was good. Our fish green curry was excellent. The fish was cooked perfectly.

We waited 35 minutes to be seated and were told the expected time. Once we ordered, the food arrived promptly, water was refilled frequently, dirty plates were removed to make room for dishes. This restaurant is a popular spot with a well deserved reputation. All guests had a good time. Definitely would return.

Pastable is a food stall focusing on bowls of fusion pasta. The main components are one pasta, one…read moreprotein, one sauce, and three toppings. Everything is 100% halal. This is their second location, in a build with 3 other food vendors. It is mostly a takeout restaurant. There is a small counter where you could stand and eat. There are six set combinations. Or you can build your own pasta (BYOP) combo. On the soft-opening day (2025-01-20), they were offering an opening special of Mac N Cheese with BBQ Chicken sample and a drink for only $6.99. I ordered the following: 1. BYOP: Garlic Shrimp, penne, rose sauce, broccoli, black olives, mushrooms. It automatically comes with sliced green peppers and chopped parsley. 2. Opening Special ($6.99) x 2. For the BYOP, they didn't warn me it was medium spicy. I can handle it with a cold drink! The shrimp and penne were perfectly cooked. I loved the rose sauce. My choices of broccoli,  black olives, and mushrooms worked well together and with the base. The Opening Special was delicious; the Mac n Cheese part and BBQ Chicken were really good! Unfortunately, the BBQ was mildly spicy, and my son didn't like it; more for me! The customer service was good. It took them a long time to prepare the food (there were many orders prior to mine). But it was opening day, so hopefully, they will speed up their cooking. There is no free WiFi. The food stall is wheelchair accessible, but there is no door-open button. There are no customer washrooms. There is paid neighbourhood street parking. Review 2025-014

It looks like they are set up to have a nightclub after hours with the massive stacks of speakers having from the ceiling. The staff here was very friendly, and the menu was unique and intriguing. The deluxe sashimi | $48 (salmon, tuna, otoro, yellowtail, scallop, unagi) was fresh and delicious. The Sato Maki | $29 (yellowtail, salmon tartare, red pepper, chotto soy) roll, was also very enjoyable, the red pepper gave it a highly unique flavor. The star of the show for me was the Tentaculos De Pulpo | $36 (octopus, spicy yuzu, purple potato puree) was amazing. I could eat that every day, in fact it may be the best tasting octopus that i have ever had, and I have had quite a bit. While it is pricy for what it is, it was all excellent!

I've been wanting to try Chotto Matte for a while, and it definitely lived up to the hype. The…read morerestaurant itself is a whole experience... it was super colourful, modern, and upscale without feeling too stiff. My friend and I were seated near the bar area, so instead of regular dining chairs, we had those lower, wider lounge-style seats. It made the whole experience feel a bit more relaxed while still fitting the upscale ambiance. We decided to go all out and order a variety of dishes so we could really experience what the restaurant had to offer. To start, my friend ordered the El Camino while I went with the Chicha Sagrada. Mine came with a toasted marshmallow on a skewer, which was such a fun touch. The drink itself was lightly sweet with a cinnamon flavour that kind of reminded me of cinnamon heart candies, but not overly spicy at all, super easy to sip between bites and conversation. For food, we started with the Yasai Miso Crispy Sushi. The crispy rice gives it such a satisfying crunch in every bite, and the veggie topping ties everything together nicely. Definitely one of those dishes you keep reaching for. The Yellowtail "Nikkei Sashimi" was fresh and evenly cut, and the yuzu soy sauce gave each bite a bright, citrusy finish. I was expecting a bit more truffle flavour, but the citrus really stood out instead and made the dish super refreshing. We also got the Dragon Roll. It looked fairly simple, but sometimes simple really works. The unagi sauce was drizzled around the plate as decoration, but once you dip the roll in, it brings everything together really well. The shrimp tempura inside was fried perfectly... still had a nice bite and wasn't mushy at all. The Pulled Asado Beef Taco was a standout for me. Super crunchy shell, really tender beef, and that slightly sweet creamy sauce with pickled veggies on top just worked so well together. We also shared the Chicken Sliders and Wagyu Sliders. The chicken was juicy and tender, but the bottom bun got quite soft from the sauce, making it a bit messy and harder to hold. Still tasty, just not the best texture. The Wagyu sliders, on the other hand, were easily our favourite of the night... super juicy beef, truffle coming through in every bite, and overall rich without feeling heavy. Overall, a really solid experience. The ambience alone makes it feel like a special night out, but the food holds up too, especially if you're into sharing plates and trying a bit of everything. It's definitely on the pricier side, but it feels worth it for the full experience.
