They've definitely put some thought into the decorations. We came on a Sunday night for dinner and reserved on OpenTable. The first thing we noticed was that the dining tables are very small, so it was a little cramped for sharing appetizers. We ordered: Escargots: cooked in shell with an almond sauce. Not bad but not too exciting 1/2 dozen oysters: served with a variety of sauces including a "spicy" hot sauce. Both my wife and I prefer to eat our oysters plain to savour the freshness and sweetness. These were PEI oysters and a little small. Striped bass: clearly previously frozen, as it has that freezer aftertaste. If you're going to use non-fresh fish you need to know what seasonings to use to remove the freezer taste. Or use better ingredients. Beef bourguignon: cooked to a good tenderness with a good mix of side vegetables. Definitely a step up from the fish. Absinthe dark chocolate mousse: Good flavours. Mousse was denser than expected. Overall the food was 2.5 stars, rounded up to 3.

Toronto Review 8/Many: Located in the front lobby of the Park Hyatt Toronto, this is an elegantly…read moredesigned bistro that I went to with another person for lunch after visiting the ROM. From what I can tell, they have several other menus, including some tasty-looking prix fixe options, afternoon tea, and other things. The friendly person in front asked if we were hotel guests, which we weren't, and we were soon seated. Our waitress was, I believe, a friendly Polish woman who gave recommendations when needed to the small handful of other diners there. As we were on vacation and I was in the mood for a bit of indulgence, I went with the Park Smash Burger for 34 CAD, with American cheddar, truffle sauce, pickled onion, and fries. Along with the listed ingredients, the burger came with a mound of shredded lettuce, which is generally not my preference, and it was on a nicely made sesame seed bun. The burger, ordered and delivered medium-rare, wasn't exactly a smash burger, as it lacked the crispy edges, but I didn't mind that. It was pretty beefy and very juicy, which made it a bit messy. I presume the lettuce didn't help in this department, but thankfully the bun held up. The cheddar was nice, and the truffle sauce was on the lighter end, but for a good quality burger, I prefer that, as I like to taste the quality of the beef instead. I also liked the pickled onions, as that helped with the overall richness. The side of fries served with some mayo and ketchup was excellent, being both large and crispy. I presume they were double-fried, but I'm not positive. Overall, I liked it, but I would have liked some tomato, pickles, or something else to add more flavors/texture, though possibly those other typical American options aren't done in Canada. The other person had the comparatively much lighter 35 CAD Power Bowl with quinoa, grilled chicken, sesame, hummus, chickpeas, cucumber, za'atar dressing, feta, pickled onion, and arugula. The dish had a nice presentation, and he liked it. As I don't like quinoa much, I tried a bit of the hummus and cucumbers, and it was a light and tasty meal. We had a pretty good meal here. It wasn't the best burger I've had, but it was good and pretty much worth the rather high listed price.

There is even a fully grown tree inside! It's a lovely atmosphere and all the greenery inside really takes it to next level. We had eaten here on previous stays, but this time the service really stood out. We had a party of five for breakfast and our waitress didn't miss a beat. I wish I had gotten her name, but she was truly focused on delivering excellent service and she was a complete rockstar! I had the omelette which had Gouda and a butter sauce (which I had on the side) with greens and toast. The only set was okay, but the toast with the homemade strawberry jam was outstanding! I also had a tropical juice smoothie that was very satisfying as well. Overall, the standout service catapulted Joni to 5 star status for me. Every aspect of the meal for our party of five was handled so skillfully, it really elevated the whole meal in what's an already stunning restaurant.

The dessert table was a highlight, with lots of great options, and drip coffee is included. All the ingredients tasted fresh and high quality, and the service throughout our visit was warm and friendly. The interior has a cozy, welcoming feel that makes it an easy place to settle in and enjoy a relaxed meal. Reservations are highly recommended, and the good news is you can book directly through their website, which makes planning ahead simple. A great spot for a delicious and comfortable weekend brunch.

The ambiance is quite nice but the vibe was off for me. I couldn't put my finger on it at first but having reflected on the evening, I feel as though the staff was just condescending and 'fake'. I ordered the lobster tacos and the other guests I was with, both ordered the prime rib sandwich. They saw the sandwich delivered to another table and were impressed by the size and presentation. They, however, did not receive the same and were quite disappointed. That being said, I think consistency is lacking. My tacos were quite tasty and I was satisfied with my dish. If I were to go back, I would order it again. Overall, it's not a restaurant I would go out of my way to get to.

We ordered a mix of dishes to share, and honestly that was the best way to enjoy it. The seafood rice was full of flavor and looked beautiful when it arrived, the tartare felt fresh and well-balanced, and the steak platter was hearty, juicy, and perfect for sharing. I also really liked that there was a little bit of everything on the table, from lighter dishes to richer ones, so the meal never felt boring. Even dessert was a nice ending and made the night feel a little more complete. Overall, I had a really lovely time here.

The restaurant is located right…read morealong the busy Yonge Street strip in Richmond Hill, surrounded by plenty of shops, cafés, and plazas, so it's an easy stop whether you're meeting friends or just exploring the area. The vibe inside is cozy and relaxed with a modern café-bistro feel. It's bright, welcoming, and definitely lives up to the name "Chillax." It feels like the kind of place you can sit and enjoy a slow brunch or a casual dinner without feeling rushed. For brunch, two dishes really stood out. The braised pork eggs Benedict was fantastic. The pork was tender and flavorful, and it paired perfectly with the creamy hollandaise and poached eggs. The gochujang fried chicken brioche burger was another highlight. The chicken was crispy with just the right amount of spice, and the soft brioche bun tied everything together. We also came back for dinner and tried the seafood paella, which was rich, comforting, and packed with seafood. It's definitely a great dish to share. For drinks, the cheesy mango ice matcha was surprisingly good. The mango adds sweetness while the cheese foam makes it creamy and indulgent. A really unique combination that works well. Prices are pretty reasonable for the quality and portion sizes, with most dishes around the $20-$30 range. Overall, it's a great spot for brunch, dinner, or just drinks. I'll definitely be coming back to try more of the menu!

It's also a sports bar so lots of bar stools to party with the rest of the other sport's viewers. Their food is well made and tasty but quite pricy. A little Asian fusion for many dishes. We came during happy hour so got some discounts. We had the crispy rice sushi with ahi tuna that is very flavorful. We tried the shrimp and pork dumplings and the crispy chili with peanuts is yummy. The Queen Bee pizza is our favorite, sweet and spicy. And if you love skinny fries, these fries don't disappoint. The servers are nice and some are chatty. Sometimes I feel I need to dress up but this place is casual too. Last time I ate here and left a review on Google was 4 years ago. Still good. Overall decent place to eat, drink and watch sports (or people).

I ordered the "Classic Benedict" with medium poached eggs on ham and extra salad instead of…read morepotatoes. Here's what I received: two HARD poached eggs on shaved ham with just a very small amount of Hollandaise sauce and a very small side salad that could not under any circumstances be mistaken for an enhanced salad in place of home or any fries. A tiny amount of Hollandaise sauce, and served on a slice of sourdough bread, not on Classic English muffin halves Now for those who might be unfamiliar with what goes into a genuine classic eggs Benny, it consists of 3 poached eggs, not 2,0 (cooked to your preference of done-ness, served on a slice of ham over two English muffin halves and smothered in Hollandaise sauce. Before getting into the price problems, let's agree to rename what I got as an "Earls' Benny" because it is far from the above- described "Classic". After I told the host staffer who came around to provide interim service, he helpfully offered to bring around a third egg and more Hollandaise. I thought that was pretty nice until I saw the additional price later. The third egg was so well done it was next to hard boiled. I was billed an additional $3.00 for it. The extra Hollandaise also cost an additional $3.00, which was an especially unwelcome charge since it came because I told that server that I had expeted my Benny to be swimming in Hollandaise instead of just accompaied by a small dash of it. Strangely, his rationale for the small amount in the original serving was that generally their clients didn't like Hollandaise so they deliberately held back. (My private disbelief in this statement arises from Hollandaise indisputedly being a key ingredient in the dish. Wouldnt you agree?) In addition to the additional unwelcome charge of $6.00 for the (normally included third egg and generous Hollandaise), I happened also to additionally order toast to go with my after-bunch coffee. In any other dine-in restaurant I have attended this order would have been met with two slices of one's choice of toast, buttered. On this day at Earls Sherway I received only one piece of the only kind they had: sourdough toast (which was quite good, by the way), and when I said that I was expecting a normal two slice portion, the additional single slice was delivered........ for an unexpexted additional $2.50 for it. No kidding! So fellow diners, here's my caveat to you if you intend to attend Earls Sherway for brunch and especially for eggs Benny on ham. 1. Do not expect English muffins under your Earls' Benny. 2. Be absolutely, loudly, and critically expressive of how you want your eggs done. 3. Try to avoid an extra charge for Hollandaise by expressing how you like your Benny served. (By the way, the Hollandaise I received was unlike what I'm accustomed to. I suspect that it was not created at the restaurant but was instead made with a mix, or spooned from a jar. Just my own suspicion.) 4. And lastly, check if there will be an additional charge for any part of your order that you may innocently be unsuspecting just because you think it should ordinarily exist. The waitress was attentive and quick with the service although we and several other visitors were kept waiting at least ten minutes for a host to seat us when suddenly three showed up siultaneously. The wait to be seated was uncomfortable although we could see the restaurant was mainly empty.
