We made a mistake on Monday, April 20, 2026. We tried to go to the St. Lawrence Market which is closed on Mondays. Now, we are hungry and noticed the Corner Place had a sign "$14 burger with beverage purchase". Walked in and received a very warm welcome from the waitress. The atmosphere of dark wood and fake plants matched her welcome. Cozy. Tracie had a Guinness and I had the Ellsemere Amber Ale. We both order the cheeseburger with tomato, lettuce, and pickle. This was a very good burger. Cooked pink as ordered. The fries were hot and plentiful. + 2700K lighting + service + Flatware - Browne, hefty 0 Music - pop, not too loud - paper napkins $66.53 CAD for lunch for 2, inc tax and tip read more

Service was quick. We were given a menu which was quite rough looking - loose paper on a clip board. Salmon Donburi bowl: the salmon didn't have much flavour on its own. It needed the dressing to make it taste OK. Too much rice in the bowl vs protein and toppings. Fries - oily not much taste without the topping - crispy Sandwich good. read more

Overall, we were really happy with Corner Place but some tiny missteps took them out of 5 star contention. Ambience was great - nice local restaurant that was busy but not packed. We were seated right away and got our first round of waters and coffees. Right away my wife's coffee was cold and clearly had been sitting in the pot for a while. There was some confusion as to if a fresh pot was brewing or if my wife wanted a tea instead. As it turned out, they brought my wife a fresh hot coffee and all was good. We both ordered Caesars for the next round of drinks....... No world of a lie, these were the best Caesars we've ever had. Hands down. They used Tabasco sauce for some heat but there was some finely grated horseradish in them as well that just shot them to the top - best Caesar ever. Period. When the food came I had the Eggs Benny with a side of breakfast sausage while my wife had the Spanish Frittata. In both dishes, there was a ton of food and it wasn't just good. I mean fantastic- we did not expect the food to be this good at such an unassuming place with okay reviews. I would recommend for the food alone. As old people we always hit the restrooms before we head out - there were some cleanliness issues and some plumbing problems that need taking care of for sure. We let our server know and she said she would advise the manager. Overall, I would recommend this place based on the food and drinks alone. Both were wonderful. read more

Went here for brunch. It's across from St Lawrence market. It's a great spot for brunch on the weekend in this area. My friend had the Bennie and I had the standard breakfast. It was a hearty option - eggs, sausage, bacon and peameal with potatoes (which were awesome) plus toast and salad. Definitely a filling option. Go by transit or park in the nearby Green P in the north market. read more

Ambiance at the patio was nice - somewhat shaded under a large mature tree, with stringed lightbulbs along the inside of the wooden fencing of the patio which made it quite pretty. The interior of the restaurant was quite dark and the music was a bit too loud IMO. But at the patio, you could hear the music while still being able to converse with the people at your table. Service was great and very friendly, but the food was a downer. Their menu can be described as "global eclectic fusion" - there were Middle Eastern, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese, Indonesian, Malaysian, Mexican, and Indian influences in the menu items. But the dishes that we tried weren't that great. Mee Goreng was super salty and drowned in so much sauce that didn't even taste good, and it was 95% noodles and wasn't much else (the protein add-on came out as only very few pieces of shrimps). I wouldn't be surprised if there was a whole week's worth of sodium in that dish. The Baked Tandoori Fish description sounded good on the menu, but to my disappointment, it was covered with so much white sauce (that was supposed to be garlic aioli but looked and tasted more like mayo), and the fish seemed breaded. The pice de gallo that came on top of the fish tasted nothing like the pico de gallo found in Mexican restaurants... and unfortunately it was drowned in so much of the white sauce. It came with plain white rice that seemed like it had been sitting out of the rice cooker for too long (akin to the dry and days-old white rice that you're supposed to use to make fried rice). Both main dishes (in addition to being overly saucy) were also topped with so many wonton crisps (like the ones you'd find at cheap Asian buffet restaurants), as if trying to make up for the negatives of the dishes. The only decent item was the Terragon Herbed Salad - simple but you can never go wrong with fresh leafy greens. read more

This was a very cheerful and cozy restaurant and bar right across the street from St. Lawrence Market. I had the white fish with rice and french fried onions stacked on top and it was light, crispy, citrusy and delicious. The staff was friendly and accommodating and the server actually recommended the dish. The limoncello spritzer complimented the dish very nicely. The prices seemed a bit high to me, but probably average for the area. I will visit again on my next visit to Toronto, Canada. read more

We came in as a group of 9 and were told they could only accommodate us if we split into two separate tables and were billed as two tables. That was perfectly fine with us, until we were advised we would still be charged a 20% automatic service charge for the large group, despite sitting as two separate parties in the restaurant. Felt weird to be charged the 20% service fee despite not even getting to sit as a group. We left, and won't return. read more

There are all sorts of food. It was pretty good. Not as filling as i thought it would be. Service is nice but also a little bit nonexistent. Place is nice and has an outdoor and indoor setting. I was outdoors at night which was nice read more

Visited The Corner Place near St. Lawrence Market and loved the summer vibes on their patio. No wait when we arrived, and the service was decent with regular check-ins. Drinks were well-priced for Toronto and quite tasty. We tried the Truffle Fries, which were fantastic--huge portion with lots of sauce and a mild truffle flavor. The Bang Bang Prawns were good too, though a bit chewy and not as large a portion. The Japanese tacos were a highlight--so delicious with a huge chicken slab, making them hard to close, but the flavors and sauces made up for it. A crispier shell would have made them perfect. The Pistachio Ricotta Cake was amazing, combining two of my favorite flavors. I just wish it was bigger hehe Overall, The Corner Place is a great spot for patio dining, and I'm definitely planning to come back! read more

Food: 4 Stars Service: 5 Stars Ambience: 4 Stars Fill Factor: Filling This is a bit of a late review but I discovered this place last summer and have since returned on multiple occasions. My first time here was with a group that just randomly picked a place with the expectation of average food here but we were absolutely wrong as the food here has yet to disappoint. The food menu here is a not overly large with a limited number of options. So far I have tried the jerk chicken burger and the prime rib burger usually with a side of salad to make it feel like I am being health conscious. Both burgers were really juicy and delicious with my favourite being the jerk chicken burger which I have had several times. I really enjoyed the salad as well as it comes with a variety of ingredients which tasted fresh with a nice tangy dressing. The service here was excellent as the staff here are friendly and attentive from the moment you arrive to after you have settled the bill. In terms of ambience I was on the patio the times I came so do not know what it is like inside the restaurant. There are lots of seats on the patio and it is fairly well shaded so is a great spot on those beautiful summer days. All in all a great place to enjoy a nice summer day with great vibes, great food, and a great location. Recommend giving it a shot if you are in the area looking for a place to relax. read more

Used to have Fantastic vibes - food so so for the higher end prices. Was a go to since it's conception but management / servers has changed so many times which leads to the lacking of consistency and customer service standards - prejudice against customers who attend solo for socializing seats at the bar/patio Will no longer recommend for friends or family visits from out of town Truly disappointed since the owner is rarely visible or in attendance to observe this type of discrimination against independent women read more

A local staple. Their truffle fries are out of this world. The smash burger with truffle fries is the perfect meal. A nice little patio for people watching. Good service and good drinks. The menu is a bit small, but fortunately I always get the same thing lol. Prices are a bit high, but they are everywhere these days, and this is a prime location, so I imagine the rent is high! Fun trivia night that's free to play too! read more

Good atmosphere, tasty sharables, great beer and a nice patio. However, I wish the patio set up would have a little bit more space!

The restaurant was super vibey! We loved it. The poutine was great - the fries were crispy and not super soggy with gravy. We also got martinis which were very good. The wait staff was very friendly too and let us hang out for a bit while the kitchen was turning over from brunch to dinner. read more

Came here for dinner with a party of 2 on a Saturday evening and I loved it! The servers are very friendly and food comes out relatively quickly. We ordered the tuna tataki tostadas, rosemary and garlic brie, and truffle fries. I was so surprised that the brie dish was an actual whole wheel of baked brie! All were so delicious. The cocktails were great as well. They have a good sized selection of dishes, and I'd go back as there were more things I wanted to try. The bathroom did not have soap which I found very strange and unsanitary, but there was hand sanitizer outside the bathroom door. read more

Was roaming around downtown Toronto and wanted a quick break . This place was amazingggggg.. I generally don't give 5/5 but this one deserves it . I think the bartender Mr Axel (I hope i spelt it right) was very friendly and super good service .. cowbell brewary beer was just out of the world .. will strongly recommend this for all Hazy IPA lovers ... food was good too. Wings wasn't spicy but tasted ok. Wish they had more spicy sauces for wings . Everything was sweet. Still this place deserves 5 stars because of customer service . Parking is crazy in downtown . We left our car in paid parking lot .. overall a very good experience... read more

In past years I've noticed The Corner Place's cute patio, and decided to finally give it a try this weekend. We arrived around 5:30pm on a Friday, and were able to get seats immediately. We ordered the JFC taco, tuna tataki, and butter chicken. All the food tasted pretty solid (but not first-rate). I think the butter chicken was my favourite. Service was prompt even though the patio was quite busy. Definitely a great place to grab a bite / drinks, as the ambience is lovely with fairy lights and big trees. Finally summer in the city! read more

With friends, we went for brunch on Saturday at noon....no issues getting a table. Although the chairs are not very comfortable, the rest of the atmosphere made up for it with disco playing in the background but at a level where you can still have a conversation. The eggs benny with salad (I had the tomato benny and my girlfriend had the peal meal benny) was delicious and the home fries are the best! Ample portions. The service was friendly and attentive. I would definitely go back. My girlfriend lives around the corner and says it's her new breakfast joint. read more

I've been to this establishment I'm the past but only for dinks. Last night I stopped to get a bite to eat to bring home, and I don't like the feeling of being ripped off:/ My greeter was a sweetheart. The server, served me. I ordered my favourite drink there, The Pink Lemonade. My food came, I paid AND tipped and then I went home. I ordered the following: 1. $16.99 : Impossible Veggie Burger with a salad 2. Prawns : $ view my receipt and you tell me 3. $ 16.00 : Pink Lemonade 4. $ 5.00 : Tip My bill came up to $59.22 Pls do the math. I purposely left the price for the Prawns out as I'm so embarrassed I got swindled. I was yelling and screaming to the food and myself when I opened up the container with the Prawns. The video will explain. I got 2 full handfuls of salad, a burger, and enough shrimp to feed my 2 yr old niece. I wonder if I had ordered my food to stay if they would of had the audacity to serve me that with a straight face? I could of taken that same $ and bought a bag of jumbo shrimp. Moral of the story #lessonlearned I gave 1 star for my greeter 1 star for my burger 1 star fir my drink But truthfully they deserve less than that read more

Came here for lunch...it's a pretty small place, so probably a good idea to make reservations if you have a large group. I tried the chicken tacos. Portion was big!! Kind of difficult to eat as a taco since the chicken was so large...it was kind of greasy. They used dark meat which was alright. Perhaps too much batter, but the karage sauce was tasty!! Overall a solid place to visit. Though I prefer the St Lawrence market for quality of food. read more

Good food, but questionable customer service, hence the rating (BP BEWARE). Here's what we ordered: - Tuna Tataki Tostadas - OK, but not really flavorful - Beef Bone Broth Soup - Pretty good - Poutine - HIGHLY RECOMMEND and it's likely to fill your tummy - Haterade - HIGHLY RECOMMEND (per my bro's experience) - Ginger Appletini Mocktail - HIGHLY RECOMMEND The customer service was odd because the environment just didn't seem welcoming to my brother and I. We walked in, no one greeted us (OK, no big deal). We sat ourselves, but it was a while before anyone said anything or came to check-in with us (OK, it happens, no big deal). When our waitress finally came over, she dropped the menus off at the furthest end of the long table we were seated at... and did not speak (wait, what?!). Later on, she took our order and I said it was my brother's birthday. She didn't wish him a happy birthday until much later when it was closer to bill-paying-time, but she did hook us up with a yummy complementary ice cream dessert so... all was forgiven. HOWEVER, The entire time, there were two managers seated at the bar directly across from our table who would call out commands to the staff. The manager guys would periodically look over at us but say nothing... didn't even crack a smile. The energy in the air just seemed odd. Were we not welcome here? Who knows, but the food was pretty good. read more

Stopped by for brunch, ordered some small plates, food was great. Service was good too

So out and about here in Toronto and find this place correctly called corner pub. Fitting as they are on the corner. Appears to be a local mom and pop place and of course those are the best. About the only negative I can say was the heat was turned up way to much, food was cooked excellent and before you ask the fries were fresh cut and tasted great, they were a bit short. Other than that totally would come back, for the food and forgot to mention they have Blantons $12 a glass. read more

My vacation reviews continue! Cool spot with live music, good beer selection, and decent food menu. Food 3/5 -- I'm just basing this off of one thing that we ordered while we were there, so if it's not the full picture, I apologize. We were kind of just grabbing snacks and drinks all over the area on our first night in Toronto. We ended up at The Corner Place because we liked the vibe, and ordered Poutine. Not bad at all, but not the best poutine I've had by any stretch. It had a lot of scallions on it, and was made with beef gravy -- I like these things. The cheese was pre-melted, which wasn't ideal, and the fries weren't the greatest. Nevertheless, pretty solid meal considering the surroundings. Atmosphere 5/5 -- Really awesome patio, but we opted to sit inside, which was also nice. They pull off the corner pub vibe pretty well, and do it with hipster-chic interior. There was also live music outside and they had speakers amplifying the music to the indoor space as well. Cleanliness 5/5 -- They were pretty on top of cleaning, and I noticed tables were bussed immediately. The bathroom was also clean, but kind of a trip walking to. It's located down a twisty flight of stairs and there are lots of mirrors along the way. I probably sound kind of stupid or oblivious saying this, but I comically mistook the mirrors for hallways, and would momentarily wonder why their basement was so f--king huge. D'oh! Service 3/5 -- Decent service, but not very attentive overall. I ended up tossing my card on the table after we sat for a bit with empty glasses and bowl. The bar manager or whatever noticed right away and took our payment, but it also seems like this would be a lost opportunity to sell more stuff to people who want more. Overall 4/5 -- One of the high points of the trip so far, but we are starting to notice a trend of bad or inattentive service. Being an industry worker I'm sympathetic to under staffing, but I haven't seen any sign of it here so far... kind of a far cry from my own experiences with under staffing in Vancouver. read more

I have been wanting to come here for 2 years almost. I drive past it all the time and it always looks so beautiful because of the pretty lights and busy! Me and my bf came here last minute and we got greeted by the only 2 workers that we saw inside the restaurant- please keep in mind when I say that; I mean that they were very very fast and accommodating not just for us but for everyone inside and outside the restaurant talk about fast service. We decided to sit outside for most of our meal, me and my bf got 2 burgers; he got the korean burger and i got the classic one from st lawrence market. & let me tell you; delicious. Okay i know that usually burgers are good everywhere but the korean burger was something different that I never had before; & looking at the menu, you can see this restaurant is asian-canadian fusion & boy o boy was it good. I got a side house salad and usually you think ew salad right? you couldn't be further from wrong. This salad was the best damn salad ever, it was so huge they gave me a separate plate for it and the dressing was to die for. We actually saw the chef step out for a minute and we wanted to tell him how delicious the food was - especially that salad. When I tell you it was good, i mean that my bf never eats veggies, like ever & he ate half of my salad haha it was great! We also got a side of sweet potato fries and those were really good too. You can tell they clean their fryer typically because it was super fresh. let me not also forget that they made our food in 10 minutes; I swear it was hot, fresh, & fast I am so happy at our mains. Then we decided to sit inside, outside was nice and warm to be honest but when I stay outside for too long I get sick so they were very welcoming. I was full at this point but really liked the salad so we ordered the japanese fried chicken taco with the side house salad. The chicken was pretty good; i'm not a big fan of fried chicken in particular but my boyfriend really liked it! I just loved their sweet yet sour house dressing they added to their food. To end the night we got hot chocolate, it was okay it's just hot chocolate haha. Our waitress was very kind and fast. Both of the workers were both amazing. Seriously, if you want to impress someone or just have good vibes and good food. Come here I assure you you won't regret it. My ratings 8.5/10. Great job & keep up the great work! The chef makes awesome food and the staff is all kind read more

Why is it so hard to get decent service anywhere anymore? My server forgot to ring in half my order then disappeared for 20 minutes. Didn't check in once. When she did my glass was empty and she didn't even ask if I wanted another. Do you even train your staff? And put more servers on the floor if the ones you have can't handle the crowd! read more

Went here for brunch in Toronto and must say we really enjoyed (mostly) everything that was on our plate. We were warmly greeted by the hostess and she showed us the available tables and we got to choose which table we preferred to sit in. There are regular seats and high top ones by the way. Anyways, we got situated pretty quickly and were able to browse the menu through the QR codes on our phones. We both chose the CP Breakfast and we loved it (photo provided). It came with pineapple, orange slices, watermelon, peameal bacon, and regular bacon, thick thick fries, ketchup, eggs (however you like it), and 4 slices of toast. Definitely a hearty brunch or breakfast. The peameal bacon was OK, and the other bacon was kind of tough and slightly rubbery but we made do. Overall it was quite a delicious breakfast and I would definitely recommend coming here for brunch/breakfast. Con: as we are in fall, many leaves kept falling on us and our food from the trees in the patio :) read more

Visited this spot for the first time today for a Sunday brunch. My two friends and I were seated in a large cozy corner booth which could have easily accommodated a party of six. The place gave off a friendly, unpretentious vibe, and our servers were very kind and attentive. Two of us ordered the avocado and halloumi toast which was delicious. My other friend ordered the eggs St. Lawrence, which also looked terrific. The place wasn't too busy, so we could sit and chat for over an hour after we had finished our meals. I would definitely be happy to come back here again. read more

Really more like 3.5 star.l but Mainly because Of super friendly Staff and nice patio. Food was 2.5 Ordered goreng chicken (moo goreng), the noodle was nice, a bit sweet as it was basically sweet chili kind of sauce, but nice overall. The chicken was bad... not tasty, and actually I could only swallow it with the noodle, it wasn't good on its own. Not marinate, no taste, and didn't look fresh either. Waitress was friendly :) read more

The food was great. But restaurant staff allowed a super drunk "regular" to speak to people at other tables when they were clearly uncomfortable with what he was saying. The staff allowed this because he's "loaded" with money. Anyone in a Nike tracksuit, a lot of credit card debt and eating at an inexpensive restaurant is not "loaded" and it should absolutely not give them a free pass to mess with other guests. Kick him out next time! You allowed him to ruin the experience for a number of people. read more

The patio is a lovely little spot at the corner of two major intersections. Fun for people watching and the st Lawrence market was a beautiful backdrop. The tables were a bit old and worn out and sticky unfortunately but everything else (chairs, utensils, umbrellas) were fine. Service was a bit lacking, on no fault of the waitress. She was trying very hard (and she was lovely and upbeat) but they really do need an extra body with how many patrons and tables were full on the patio. The food itself was delicious. A good amount of standard brunch choices. We had the chicken and waffles as well as the corner place breakfast. I loved the choice of fruits and they were all super fresh. The chicken was juicy and crunchy but with just the right amount of batter and the waffle was the perfect complement. Nothing stood out particularly about my breakfast but it was a hefty portion and I liked the way they did the home fries. One small thing but they didn't have salt/pepper shakers on the table and I really like pepper on my eggs. But with how busy our server was, I didn't bother asking for it. Overall would come again but a few small things that made it only an ok experience as opposed to a good one. read more

Went to lunch here with my mom. Our server was very friendly and efficient. The vibe of the establishment was sports bar or maybe sandwich place? The atmosphere wasn't welcoming or well decorated and I didn't know what to expect. So when the menu offered butter chicken, Japanese tacos, burgers, ribs, poke bowl?? Such a strange mix of different cuisines that didn't make sense together so I didn't know what to order that would be good. I settled for the chicken avocado sandwich because getting raw fish at a place that seems like a sports bar doesn't sound appetizing to me. My mom got the Japanese taco. Both were mediocre and didn't have anything special about them. The house salad that came with my sandwich also had too much dressing and the greens were not fresh. I would suggest having a coherent menu with less variety but higher quality meals and better ingredients. The place has potential but I can't tell who its trying to target. read more

My company recently hosted a holiday party at the Corner Place. The manager, Gonçalo, was extremely accommodating and responsive as we planned the event.
