Ambassador Chinese Cuisine

Rated this place:

280 West Beaver Creek Rd #38, Richmond Hill, ON, L4B3Z1

Chinese restaurant, Dim sum restaurants

Chinese restaurant, Dim sum restaurants: They have the most consistently good chinese food uptown. Their service is also impeccable.

The service is great, as is the food. Not too pricey for the quality either. The deep fried shrimp rolls are excellent.

Fusaro's Kitchen

Rated this place:

147 Spadina Ave #108, Toronto, ON, M5V2L7

Lunch, Sandwiches

Lunch, Sandwiches: Their sandwiches, soup and pasta are all great. Make sure to get there before noon to beat the lineup though.

They really just taste that good. Well worth the extra price you pay over other sandwich spots. The soup was excellent as well.

Lamb dish

Terra Restaurant

Rated this place:

8199 Yonge St, Thornhill, ON, L3T2C6

Chocolate torte, Dessert, Dining experience, Roasted quail

Chocolate torte, Dessert, Dining experience, Roasted quail: It's made so very well (and tasty) and the presentation is so pretty it makes you reluctant to eat it.

The presentation is awesome and the taste just great.

The entire experience is so complete: Great food, awesome presentation (especially the dessert) and superb service.

They manage to enhance the taste of quail without completely hiding the natural taste, and as always with Terra, it has great presentation.

Alice Fazooli's! Italian Grill

Rated this place:

294 Adelaide St. W., Toronto, ON, M5V1P6
