This little deli is cozy, with just a few tables tucked by the window. Grabbed a pastrami on rye to go. The lighting was warm, made it feel like a quiet escape from the busy street outside.

Been coming here for years. The staff are always on it, even when it&#39;s packed. They just get the flow right. Ordering&#39;s a breeze, and you&#39;re not left waiting. That&#39;s the main thing for me.

Good spot near Berczy Park for a post-meal walk. The food was decent, but service felt a bit slow for a weekday lunch. Expected quicker turnaround.

The burgers are always fresh off the grill, which I like. The ability to customize your order is a plus. Two of their basic burgers for the price is solid value. Good for a quick, reliable meal.

Karan always remembers my order. It&#39;s a nice touch that makes the morning routine a bit smoother. The coffee is consistently good, and the location is convenient for my commute.

The staff here is fantastic. Kirt and Princess were so friendly, they really made us feel at home. The wine list is solid, had a nice Pinot Noir that went perfectly with the steak. Just a great, relaxed vibe.

The tzatziki sauce here is so fresh and creamy. It really makes the grilled chicken pita feel light yet satisfying. A nice spot when you&#39;re craving something that feels clean but still has flavour.

I grab lunch here a lot. The food is solid, but the line is almost always a crawl. Just one person at the counter most days, so you really have to be patient.

The crust on their pizza is spot on - crisp outside, chewy inside. It&#39;s a great match for a bold red wine.

Service was efficient and attentive. They handled our coats and even arranged a small birthday surprise without us asking. Staff was friendly but not overbearing. Good for a business dinner.

Lisa was a fantastic server, super attentive and friendly. She made our visit really enjoyable. Drinks came out fast, and the atmosphere was just right.

Stopped in for a late lunch. The daily special was a solid burger, came out hot and fresh. Just what I needed. Prices are fair for the area.

Pollo con zucca pasta is the one. Creamy, rich, and just the right amount of squash. Ordered it again last week. That&#39;s all you need to know.

Merci Mon Ami is a cozy little spot near Exhibition GO station. The music was just right for a chat. I liked the service, it was relaxed. The steak frites were good, the fries were crispy. The steak itself was a bit on the thin side for my liking.

Friendly staff, attentive service. They forgot my coffee order but didn&#39;t charge me for it, which was a nice gesture. Coffee itself was just okay though.

The tzatziki and eggplant dips were solid. Came with a generous amount of warm, fresh pita bread. Honestly, the portion for the dip platter is pretty good for the price. Could easily share it with two people.

The chicken finger plate was a solid choice. Not your usual breaded strips, more like a seasoned cutlet. The Brazen burger was decent too, cooked as requested. Service was prompt for a busy lunch.

Grabbed a table on a Saturday, no wait. The vibe is classic Italian, cozy. Portions are generous and the food arrived fast. The house red they suggested was a solid, uncomplicated match for the bread and oil. A comfortable spot.

Nice spot for dinner. The decor is cool, not too stuffy. Tables are spaced out so you&#39;re not on top of other people. Just felt comfortable hanging out here.

The lunch special is a solid deal. Pair it with their house red, and you&#39;ve got a proper midday meal.

Service was efficient. Server checked in at the right times, orders came out quickly. No long waits. Good for a business lunch downtown.

This is a cozy neighborhood spot. The desserts are a real treat, and the coffee is excellent. The staff is friendly and attentive, which makes for a very relaxed meal.

Our server was really helpful picking out a pizza. It was a great recommendation, the pizza was delicious. Service was friendly and attentive, no complaints there.

The Nutella crepe was warm and gooey, just what I wanted. Iced Americano hit the spot too. They made it fresh right there, so it came out fast. Solid little snack.

Tried their grilled salmon salad for a casual dinner. The salmon was cooked just right, not dry at all. Really appreciated the fresh greens and cherry tomatoes. The portion felt generous for a salad. A solid, healthy option.

The grilled octopus was tender and the lamb shank fell right off the bone. Service was attentive without being overbearing. A solid meal, though the dining room was a bit warm for my liking.

The lasagna was exceptional, best I&#39;ve had. Layers were perfect, not too heavy. Carbonara was also fantastic, creamy without being too rich. Shared the tiramisu, just right for two.
