The portions are massive, loaded with fresh, high-quality toppings and bold, satisfying flavour--all at a very reasonable price. The meat portions are especially generous. The staff are fantastic, and the space is clean, well-organized, and has a great atmosphere.

The pictures online do not lie. Their sandwiches are packed with ingredients and taste delicious!

I highly recommend this sandwich and this deli/bakery for a good quality, yummy sandwich!

The food is unapologetically hearty, full of flavor, and built to satisfy. The Philly Steak Sandwich is the kind of sandwich you immediately understand after the first bite. It is rich, cheesy, generously filled, and properly messy in the best way. The Spicy Mushroom Cheeseburger is just as convincing, with a thick beef patty, plenty of cheese, and enough mushroom and heat to make it feel more interesting than a standard burger. Nothing feels skimpy here, and that generous portion size is part of why the place has such a loyal following. What I liked most is that Grill Gate does not try to be too polished or too trendy. It knows exactly what it is. If you are in the mood for something indulgent, filling, and actually worth the price, this is the kind of spot that hits the mark. Very easy to come back to when you want a serious burger or sandwich.

I enjoy a good Italian Sandwich from time to time…read more Occasionally I've had some of the best veal sandwiches in the GTA. California Sandwiches, San Remo Bakery, Tre Mari Bakery, Via Cibo, Maranello Cafe, Papamio's, Cosimo's, Calabria Bakery, Belaggio's, Commisso Brothers, Vi Pei Bistro and Remezzo's. They make decent sandwiches. Out of all of them, I find Nino D'Aversa Bakery makes one of the best Italian Veal Sandwiches in the GTA. It was my first time visiting this iconic Italian bakery, deli and hot table. It was so good it definitely won't be my last visit. Traditional Italian Veal Sandwiches are served on crusty bread fresh from their bakery with your choice of toppings like mushrooms, peppers and cheese. This nostalgic sandwich will have you planning on coming back for more. The wood fired pizzas are to die for. The gnocchi left me speechless. Beautiful Italian cafe! The friendliest people working here make the best cappuccino and they make your visit special. So many types of specialty breads in their bakery. Calabrese Round, Calabrese Long, Spaccato, French Stick, Corn Bread, Semolino, Whole Wheat French Stick, Ciabatta Loaf, Ciabatta Baguette, Vienna Calabrese, Whole Wheat Vienna, Rye Bread, Multigrain, Sourdough, Rolls and Bread Crumb Tubs. Of course I took home a selection of them. If you're craving something nostalgic, tasty, good quality food like homemade cooking, this spot is for you. Classic Italian comfort food.

Ariete E Toro located near Yonge St. near Keewatin Ave in Mid-town Toronto serves up high-end…read moreItalian sandwiches. Opened in Feb 2025, the sandwich shop is set to expand opening a second location near Dundas and Ossington sometime this year. They are open daily from 11am to 5pm where you can pre-order off Ambassador for pick up or opt for delivery with Ubereats. When Ariete E Toro first opened last year, I recall seeing the long lines as it became super popular. Fast forward to a year later, I finally tried Ariete E Toro recently. The storefront is on a side street off of Yonge St. where it is take out only. They do have a bench near the window/entrance of the store but usually it's utilized by people waiting for their sandwiches. In the summer though, they have a small patio in front of the shop with some tables and chairs. Menu wise, Ariete E Toro has a variety of sandwiches with ingredients that work well together. You are also able to build your own sandwich if you'd like. They also have beverages like soda and water as well. The store boasts that all their ingredients are high quality. An average price of a sandwich is around $17. I decided to pre-order 2 sandwiches for pick up. These are the two sandwiches I got: - Enzo (mortadella di bologna, pistachio pesto, stracciatella cheese, chopped pistachio, lemon and basil oil). - Rogo Rogo (prosciutto cotto, 'nduja cream, smoked provolone, caramelized onion, arugula, and brown butter vinaigrette) Entering the store to pick up my order, staff were amidst completing my sandwiches. There was already a regular there chatting with staff. Service was quick. My sandwiches were packed and I had half of each at home. The size of the sandwich was pretty big! I could only finish 3/4th of the sandwich. Both the Enzo and the Rogo Rogo were tasty but the Enzo stole the show. The moist bread with the mortadella where the pistachio pesto and hint of stracciatella cheese along with a slight crunch from the chopped pistachio made for a perfect sandwich (I do prefer the bread a bit harder and crunchier though but the texture of this one was still good). I was sharing the sandwiches with my partner and as he opened the packaging he noticed a piece of hair in the sandwich. I would have given a higher rating on Yelp but finding someone else's hair in your food is off-putting. I do hope that if I return next time (either to this location or to their new location near Ossington/Dundas) that we won't find any surprises in our food. Overall, delicious sandwiches in Midtown Toronto, however, we did find a piece of hair in our sandwiches which.... kind of makes me hesitant to return. **Update** - I wrote a review on Google where the owner personally asked me to email them to rectify the situation with the piece of hair found in my sandwich. The owner apologized and stated that he was actually the one who personally made my sandwich that day (sliced the deli meat, etc.). He also made sure that he would speak with the bread manufacturer to make sure that they were aware of the situation as it may have come from the bread as well. He also gave me a refund for one sandwich as well as a $25 credit for if I wanted to give the sandwich spot another chance (the sandwich is too good to not go back!). That is what I call great customer service - making sure that an apology was given and that customers are happy. Would happily return again for their tasty sandwiches!!

Food: I got the Enzo - I'm a big fan of mortadella and pistachio pesto, and it's one of their OGs. I wasn't as big a fan of the sotto bosco, but overall the quality and portion sizes are solid. Presentation: Each sandwich comes in a snazzy box perfect for keeping the sandwich intact Space: Clean shop, more of a take out spot, with just one bench by the windows for seating Service: Quick and efficient - no line when I went right at opening on a Sunday. I came here hoping to satisfy my craving for a proper Italian mortadella sandwich after Eataly left me underwhelmed. Thankfully, this one hit the spot.

And that sign points to a true midtown institution: a warm, old-school Italian shop brimming with tempting cheeses, cured meats, and all sorts of intriguing groceries. But let's be honest--like many people, I come for the sandwiches. My husband likes to mix it up, but I'm forever loyal to the house special: shaved prosciutto and spicy salami, buffalo mozzarella, hot peppers, fig jam, sliced tomatoes, finished with balsamic and olive oil. You walk in, choose your bread (ciabatta, naturalmente), and they hand it over tutto pronto. It's a big, bold, mamma mia of a sandwich--and I absolutely love that mix of flavours. Molto bello!

The…read morepsychological effect of not knowing exactly what and how much ingredients go into your sub, so that each bite is a nice surprise. Well, that sure is the case here. La Salumeria's house special layers various kinds of deli meat, cheese, hot pepper pickles, tomato slices, and fig jam onto your choice of bread, and each mouthful bursts with a combination of flavours. Spicy, salty, sweet...! Just perfect. One sandwich usually lasts me 2 meals. I love looking around the store while waiting for my sandwich to be ready. There's a variety of deli meats, cheeses, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, spreads, etc. All neatly displayed and clearly labeled. It's nice to see a store that feels like a true neighbourhood mom & pop shop, with Carlo the owner recognizing regulars and exchanging friendly banter. Feels cozy While I am not a regular, he's still quite friendly.
