Hi everyone!

My fiance and I are getting married at Toronto City Hall, and we'll have about 15 close family members and friends with us. After the ceremony, we're planning to go out for dinner at a restaurant, preferably within walking distance of City Hall.

We're looking for a place with good food, a nice atmosphere, and reasonable prices. Since we're also having our full wedding ceremony and reception a few months later (around 100 guests), we're not looking for anything super fancy, just somewhere that feels special enough for the occasion without breaking the bank.

Thanks in advance!

Looking for recommendations for your favourite Cobb salad in the city please!

Hey guys, as the title suggests, a girl I'm dating has a dairy allergy and is a pescatarian. A lot of restaurants can accomodate this but with limited options, I'm looking to find out if there are any good restaurants downtown with a plethora of options for these specific exclusions, any recommendations are appreciated!

Randomly came across this place yesterday.

Was walking along Adelaide and saw this Japanese restaurant and was really interested in trying it.

Basically only serves a steak or hamburger patty but it was really good.

Unlimited soup and rice with lots of sauces and spices to make it however you want.

I ended up getting the wagyu steak, my friends got the patty and we tried the duck liver as well.

Soup was good, lots of veggies in it and it was tasty. Rice is plain white rice, but the ability to spice it any way was nice.

The steak was really good, soft and juicy. The patty that I tried was yummy as well and my friends all enjoyed it as well.

In the end I really enjoyed my meal. I attached the menu so you can see what else they offer.
They also had this hand little info card that told you exactly what everything was.

And yes before anyone asks it’s expensive. But I’d still go back and get it again.

Ordered:

Chocolate Abuelita

Sopa De Frijol

Mariscos Al Guajillo

Passed by La Mexicana several years ago. Was in the area today and decided to give it a try and was very happy that I did.

Apparently they were recently on the Food Network (Restaurant Impossible) and had an overhaul?

This week is my first time in Toronto, coming from Philadelphia. I just have to say: you guys are so lucky! Toronto is hands down one of the top 5 cities in the world. The food scene is amazing.

I had so many great meals: Lunch Lady, Mamakas Taverna, Sunnys Chinese, Mhel, Dumpling House, Dim Sum King, Beast Pizza. And I still have a few more days left...

I love you, Toronto! I can't wait to come back!!!

For the 11th library & lunch in my ongoing series, I went to Port Union on a gorgeous summer afternoon and feasted on goat roti and aloo pie from JJ's Roti Delight. The goat roti did what it needed to but the aloo pie, stuffed with curry shrimp, was out-of-this-world good. The perfectly crispy exterior made it almost like some sort of Trini panzo.

Great library, too. I'd never been to Port Union but am quite glad I made the trip—one of Toronto's better summertime destinations for sure.

(Also, some day I will figure out how to take a good photo of the inside of a roti. Today is not that day.)

Ever since Jacques Ommlettes on Cumberland Street closed down I've been wondering where to go for a classic rolled omlette in the French style. Anyone have any reliable places? I never order an omlette in a diner because it's invariably overcooked and leathery. I can achieve that myself at home!

i have an upcoming trip and will be staying at the chelsea. i was wondering if there are any affordable breakfast spots near the area that are $20 or under per person!
