    August 8/2023: A mediocre lunch from a mediocre restaurant. It was a really old style dining room. Chairs were ripped & it looked like it hasn't been updated since the 1980's. I could have looked past this if the food was good, but not so much. You know how you can tell when French fries were fried, cooled down & fried again? Well...the schnitzel ($20.00) I was served was double fried. It was hollowed out between the meat & the batter. Not a good item to serve your customers. The potato's were tasty & as was the dill sauce they hyped so much. I thought the dill sauce was good but not a whole lot of taste for $1.50 for a tiny container of it. Our server was very nice but even though we were the only customers at noon she seemed rushed & left the table quickly. This is NOT a repeat for me.

    Got the Pork Shnitzel w pierogies, and it was to die for the meal. It was great. The lemon on the pork shnitzel was killer , and dill sauce was to die for

    Giant pretzel and cheese sauce

    I always order food from here and it's awesome and delicious every time! My usual go-to is the huge Slovak Feast for $24! It can feed our family of 4 (2 adults, 2 kids)! Yesterday I decided to order the Oktoberfest platter for $60 (which came with 1 huge chicken schnitzel, 1 huge pork schnitzel, 2 smoked sausages, home fries, pasta, and a giant pretzel) plus I ordered some yummy perogies! I have to say the Oktoberfest platter did not disappoint and it was great comfort food! Also, the homemade dill sauce V makes is AMAZING (so much that she sells jars of it for $8)! This dill sauce goes with lots of things - like schnitzel, perogies, salads, chips...etc! I can't get enough of it! Since October is no more, I suggest you try V's Slovak Feast! If you don't eat pork, ask to switch to a chicken schnitzel instead! Many more things I still want to try, like the potato salad and goulash! Their desserts are awesome too!

    Really authentic Bryndzove Halusky 5/5

    Just excellent. Really great Slovak food! Halusky is hard to make and get ingredients for, but the taste was really authentic.

    13 years. This is how long this business has been here. I had no clue, none. I had noticed this place passing by a number of times only recently when heading down to Lakeshore from the 427. I had to ask how long this place has been open because I had no idea. 13 years... wow. What makes this restaurant less conspicuous now is their new sign. It's easier to see and it stands out a lot more. That's how I found this place - by seeing it for myself. On the west side of Brown's Line along with that Cuban place, OBQ Burger and a bunch of other businesses this south Etobicoke neighborhood is sort of a mix of small businesses on the main street and homes. It's not hard to miss some of these places on your way up and down Brown's Line between the QEW/427 and Lakeshore. While there's no parking on Brown's Line V's does have parking behind their restaurant. There's not too many spaces but there was one left by the time I got there. The entrance is on the north side through a glass door and then a big thick door the kind you would probably have as a door to a house. The inside sort of feels that way, like a house because the decor has a very homey feel to it. Wooden tables and chairs, eastern European artwork and knick knacks are around and while the layout is simple and spacious you can see into the open counter to the kitchen where "V" is working the magic. It's obviously a family business as there's a young girl taking our orders, and a young boy at the table nearest to the kitchen doing his homework. There were several other patrons inside enjoying drinks and dinner as well. The feeling I get that this place is a locals kind of place and being around for well over a decade is a good indication that the business is doing something right to be able to keep things going for that period. My friend and I go out to eat every once in a while and I had chosen this place knowing that I've wanted to try it for some time. I had looked up the menu online and their prices seemed quite reasonable. While the namesake of the establishment does have schnitzel in their name they do have some other dishes such as souvlaki and other varieties of pork, chicken and goulash. This place for me definitely falls under the comfort food section for me. We both started with a nice heavy glass stein of Krombacher and placed our orders. My friend went with the wiener schnitzel dinner which includes a small side salad, a veal schnitzel and what is referred to as V's potatoes. V's potatoes as from the menu, "V's potatoes are boiled cubed and lightly pan roasted with house blend of spices". I had ordered the combo plate which is the same thing but it also adds breaded cheese and mushrooms on the side. Either of those are available as appetizers but are included in the combo (one generous piece of breaded cheese and 4 breaded mushrooms all made with the same type of breading as the schnitzel. The wiener schnitzel dinner is 14 dollars. The addition of the appetizers that make up the combo plate is basically another 6 bucks on top of that because the combo is 20 dollars. This is a great deal. We ended up sharing the appetizers and we both had enough to bring home as neither of us finished the meal. It's a lot of food for 2 men that can eat! The entire meal is as the place itself feels... like home or at least eating dinner in somebody's home. I didn't feel like a customer here - I felt like a guest. The food is really good by the way if what I had to say didn't come across that way I have a way of going on a tangent forgetting to complete my thought. Besides the food tasting great you also get a pretty generous quantity of it as well. As I said I couldn't finish it AND I shared part of my meal as well. If you know me that's pretty impressive as I it's not a common occurrence that I don't finish a meal. My bottom line, good food, good value, nice feel and not far from home... win, win, win, win.

    Great choice! My husband is very particular, and it is hard to get him to try new places. He is ying to my yang in that my life is not complete unless I am seeking out little "hole in the wall" destinations. We had driven past V's Schnitzel House a few times before I caught him at a weak moment - hungry! - and finally pulled in. He was in no mood to fight me, however did say that if we walked in & there was no other patrons, we would have to turn around and leave ;) Good thing for both of us that there were two other couples lingering after finishing their lunches. Krombacher on tap was the place to start... then onto the Schnitzel! I fell in love with this dish on our trip to Vienna and I would say that V is as close as I have found. The only thing missing was the sweet counterpart to the salty (lingonberry jam or some sort of berry sauce). They did offer a Dill sauce that was yummy... but not the same. I was very impressed. Clean establishment and good tasting food. Let's be clear - this is not a place to impress a date or to go for a special occasion... it is warm, homey, casual & you would be welcome with jeans and a T-shirt (even if there was a stain). We will be back when that longing for Europe erupts!

    Finally! Jimmy Johns is in Ontario, and it's in my neighborhood, too sweet!…read more My first exposure to Jimmy Johns was when i got sent to Minneapolis St Paul (USA) and Jimmy Johns was across the street from my hotel. Came here on a super rainy day and was instantly annoyed with the layout of the restaurant in comparison to the parking lot, I feel like them retrofitting into this space, really didn't do them any favors, when I trekked through grass and mud to get to the door, I realized I parked on the wrong side of the building, even worse as you only have a walk way for one side? We finally got into the restaurant, and out of the rain and instantly the smell brought me back to both visits at MSP. a lot has changed in my diet where 80% of the menu I can't enjoy anymore. they also offer a toasted subs now, and I got one of the few items that wasn't available for this option, of course! Service was great, order was placed and we were in and out in ten minutes or so. The bread is absolutely killer, took me back to seven years ago, in MSP crazy good flavor and freshness for a throw back The parking lot is a huge negative for this spot, and warrants me not making this a five/five situation. being across from the mall, plus Home Depot/Wal-Mart and a bunch of smaller stores and restaurants in the mix, to get in and out of this section is nuts, and much like this super rainy night, not a lot of dedicated parking for Jimmy Johns Definitely an experience everyone should try, wish it was in the mall instead will be back!

Of course we know Firehouse subs is one of the elites but I always feel like doo doo after eating a Firehouse sub. None of that at a Jimmy Johns though! I felt great! Lol I ordered a 6 inch (Regular) Italian Night Club and added Jimmy peppers, which are essentially banana peppers but better. Such a great sub and all the flavours pop and work. The meat tastes like quality and they're not stingy (cough *subway* cough). I added some mustard on some of the bites and that made everything pop even more. Bread was nice and soft but not soggy. A great sub, all around. The service was extremely friendly and knowledgeable as well. Sorry Firehouse, I'm a Jimmy John's girl now!

    I can't say I was familiar with panuozzo before stopping into Crudo, but given our positive…read moreexperience there, you can consider me a convert. We decided to start with the Bruschetta ("Freshly Baked Bread Topped With Tomatoes"), and it's a solid appetizer. It's basically a very tasty dough covered in well-seasoned, fresh-tasting tomatoes. It's good. It in no way prepared me for the next-levelness of our main. We opted for the Mortadella Panuozzo ("Mortadella, Cream Of Pistachio, Stracciatella"). I took one bite and I was immediately blown away. All the flavors work so well together, and that super fresh panuozzo ties the sandwich together perfectly. Immediately after leaving the restaurant, my dining companion looked at me and asked if I was as bowled over as he was. We both agreed it was one of the best sandwiches we'd ever eaten. It's crazy. They know what they're doing at Crudo, that's for sure. I can't wait to go back and try some of their other offerings (although let's be real, I'll probably get that Mortadella panuozzo every time I return.)

Mortadella is my all time fav, enormous amount of mortadella slices, stracciatella and pistachio butter. And my new finding is Dolce Salato! Perfect balance of salty and sweet from prosciutto, fig jam, and balsamic glaze! This is their main location and becuz if that, it's always busy during the weekend but still all the staffs were super friendly and prompt! The dining space got some upgrades compared to couple of yrs ago - more tables and chairs to accommodate more ppl. If you haven't tried this place, i highly recommend to try it out!

I figured I'd keep it simple, so I went with the Classic Burger ("Two beef patties cooked-to-order, American cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickles, onions, and of course, ketchup and mustard"). It was ready about ten minutes later and it's...fine. The various components are decent enough, although the tomato was far from ripe, but the burger itself was hardly cooked with care. It didn't really have a beefy flavor and it was totally lacking in texture. And with nothing really to cut through the fat, the whole thing ate really, really heavy. The whole thing was just so middle of the road. Honestly I would've rather been eating a Whopper. (At least that burger has that flame-grilled flavor going for it.) I doubt I'd order from Wayback again, although it's certainly possible they were just having an off night.
