Restaurants near Ryerson University

We had a lovely time! Staff were very attentive and professional. Food was very good too! If you are looking for a Michelin Restaurant this is not one - BUT it is not supposed to be😊— it’s a FUN Jazz bar with a Great Team of staff plus a kind & inclusion atmosphere. And let’s not forget the #1 thing - GREAT Jazz! Can’t wait to book again! See you soon Jazz Bistro 🎷🎼🎶🎵

Service was excellent! The servers were sweet and attentive . Food was 90% fabulous overall quality was excellent! Cod was buttery and flavorful Karate chicken was perfect not greasy yet crispy Great down to 1 thing - the torched Aburi sushi was too thin of fish with too much sauce on top, either lighter on the sauce or thicken the fish on top a bit more to give it a bit of balance on taste or else it is too oily hitting the palette. Overall enjoyable and yummy experience

Dear Joey’s Team, I’ve always loved dining at Joey’s. Your food is consistently delicious, and I often recommend your restaurant to friends. However, during my recent visit, I noticed a few changes and experiences that I wanted to share. Firstly, I was disappointed to see that the guacamole appetizer has been removed from the menu and replaced with ricotta. While the ricotta is good, I truly miss the guacamole—it was one of my favorite starters, and many of my friends feel the same. I hope you consider bringing it back in the future! Additionally, the service experience this time didn’t quite meet your usual high standards. For instance, we were served our appetizer but didn’t receive side plates to eat with, which made it a bit inconvenient. Also, I had requested a booth during booking, but we were seated at a high table instead, even though there were several empty booths that remained unoccupied throughout our visit. I’m sharing this feedback because I truly enjoy dining at Joey’s and want to see it continue to be the excellent experience I’ve come to expect. Thank you for taking the time to listen, and I hope to see some improvements on my next visit.

Having walked past the unassuming entrance on Carlton Street just east of Yonge it suggested coffee/pastry shop more than an actual restaurant. We read a good review and tried it. What a pleasant surprise. Inside was an expansive restaurant, with great table spacing, moderate noise level and attentive service. We started with the mushroom spring rolls and shishito peppers both excellent. For mains we had pad Thai with chicken, different presentation than normal but excellent. We chose a Californian Cabernet Sauvignon that was full bodied and excellent value. Great experience, we will definitely be back!

The entire experience from beginning to end was exquisite. Both the chef and owner are such sweet kind people the seafood was so fresh. The layout for lunch was absolutely perfect and they did everything to make lunch very special for our birthday celebration would definitely come back. Thank you so much!
