Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"An underrated and hidden gem near the panam centre and perfect for UTSC students. My friends and I eat here often usually after a gym session or between classes. The staff is always nice and super friendly. The chicken they serve is always super crunchy and my friends know I'm always raring to eat crunchy chicken. They have the big easy sandwich sold as a deal everyday as well burgers on the weekends. I have not tried much of their desserts or gelatos (slay me, i know) but whenever I do, I tend to have a pleasant time. Would recommend to UTSC students who are tired of eating uni food."
"This spot is such a nice small but cozy space to eat at. Grabbed the honey hot chicken sandwhich, philly cheesesteak, and the lotus biscoff ice cream. Sandwhich: it was good enough sweet with a nice kick of heat. The chicken itself was still so crispy even after being dipped in that sauce. Would definitely recommend if you like hot and sweet mix. Philly cheesesteak: the meat was cooked so well, tbh the only thing missing was some veggies. Other than that it tasted great. Lotus ice cream: the flavour was soo dense and the perfect amount of sweetness."
"The best place to visit if you’re looking for food and dessert! The tenders and sandwiches are delicious. We tried the chocolate brownie and s’mores gelato and it was mouth watering. Great place to visit with family, reasonable pricing and staff are very kind and attentive."
"Biscoff ice cream in a chocolate cone was delicious! Strawberry & mango scoops were very much enjoyed as well. We look forward to returning for a cookie skillet."
"I visited my boyfriend over the weekend and he insisted I try this place. We ordered a waffle cookies and cream ice cream banana strawberry and crushed Oreo cookies with hot fudge. We also order popcorn chicken with fries and a hot honey wrap. The waffle was so good everything was so fresh and hot. Popcorn chicken was also very tasty. Definitely will be ordering when I come back for a visit."
"This is our a go to place whenever my daughter wants something sweet. They just don’t offer desserts though but burgers and poutine too. It’s close by our house so it’s an advantage for us. Just few minutes walk and we can have shakes or waffle. It’s a clean bright place, I hope they will maintain it. A very good place to hang out with family and friends."
"Great location. Philly steak and cheese fries was really good. Great staff, Excellent service."
