Amazing food, service and ambiance. I’ve never seen portions as big as what we had here. The quality of the food was great and so fresh. We had a pleasure of meeting Jedidiah, our amazing server. He was very kind and thorough. Thank you for the great experience!

This restaurant has been on my list for a while to try and it definitely lives up to all expectations. The restaurant itself has a wonderful atmosphere, and the staff were all very kind. The menu was extensive, and had many options to try for everyone. The food we ordered was delicious. Their fries are to die for. Their pickles were also delicious, and a good pickle says a lot about a restaurant!

Terrific breakfast place, generous portions made with good quality ingredients. No boxed eggs here. Service was prompt, efficient and cheerful. Restaurant was busy for a weekday, I imagine it must be pretty busy on the weekends! I would like to return for a dinner some time, the dinner menu looked good and based on the breakfast would also be top notch ingredients. Street parking available and in a nice neighbourhood.

I ordered take out from two places, and created my own Greek/Cantonese cuisine. The Singapore Mei Fun comes from a small, dingy looking place called Panda on Niagara St.. Don't let the outside fool you. They have the freshest tasting, "chinese" fast food in the city. They actually listen when you request a specific spice level. Mine is always extra hot...and it is. Filled with flavor, shrimp, pork, and chicken. The salmon, salad, veggies, and pita came from Kostas. Simply fantastic. The salmon was perfectly seared on the outside, and moist/flaky on the inside. With size, cook, and price, it exceeds expectations on days you don't want to cook. Since I was mixing with rice noodles, I was able to omit the starch and get double squash/zucchini blend. It also came with soup or salad. We picked the salad. They did not skimp on fresh greens, onions tomato, peppers. Feta and bursting with herb dressing, and a highly grilled potato. I usually hate eating off of paper plates, but this was so good that it didn't matter.
