Should You Go?

So unless if you have money to blow, a special occasion is most likely when you should go. The food is not cheap and the portions are well they're portioned all right. I say you're paying more so for the BEAUTIFUL view as your table rotates around Toronto's amazing view at night. I was kind of disappointed about the food to be honest. My salmon was lacking flavour (salt) and the mussels were probably the best part. The server was excellent and offered us coffee at the end (which was probably not out of courtesy but it was nice). The dessert was delicious and the atmosphere makes you feel richer than you are....until you see the hole in your wallet!

Should You Eat Here?

I personally find the Sussex Centre to be very classy and sophisticated. The atmosphere is made for relaxation, with dim lights, a lounge atmosphere and mature crowd. The service though is not very timely and sometimes be prepared to wait a bit. This location is nice for a night out with girls, or a date or even a boyfriend/girlfriend dine-out. The Erin Mills location is much brighter and sets the tone of a more family friendly eatery.

Orcel's

Filipino restaurants or take-outs are very hard to find around the GTA. I happened to stumble upon one located in Brampton. Whenever I have a craving for it I go straight to Orcel's and load up....on what I can.

Okay so I love the food here because it brings me back through time. Obviously my grandparents cooking was better but for a dine-in joint it's pretty homemade, i mean like literally freshly prepared that day. There is a wide selection of items to choose from BUT you gotta ask what they are because they ARE NOT labelled. The people are somewhat friendly and are pretty stingy about the combos. DO NOT let them add noodles to your combo unless you are willing to pay $1 extra. There are other food items in the store you can bring home as well. Don't be fooled by the surrounding area or the look of the place the food is actually pretty darn good!

Heart Sushi

So this place just opened up a few months back and is pretty nice I must say. The place has an open feel and portrays elegance and class but still has a semi-casual feel. The food is delish!

Let's go for sushi!!! The new age buffet is in town, order your food through an Ipad! The service is impeccably fast and the employees are welcoming and very friendly! I would definitely go back, there is no cut off as to how many dishes you can get. The one issue if I had any would be that when it's close to close they'll make sure to let you know. Other than that the food is GREAT, the sushi is fresh and the desserts are okay.

RATING






Should You Go?

If you are craving food food after a drinking night or are looking for some fast Chinese food, Tremendous is your go to. Dim sum is pretty cheap and main dishes are pretty affordable. Sometimes it makes you think though...hmmm...how did they make that so fast. The early morning atmosphere is filled with drunk party go-ers and people who work in the early mornings. It is weird sometimes because you see the odd couple tables with families at such strange hours but w.e. If you want Chinese and you are close to the Square One area, Tremendous is your place.

Should You Go?

Okay so it is open 365 days out of the year, but unless you're really craving dine-in it wouldn't be my first choice. They have a ton load of dessert from crepes, waffles, ice cream, cakes, fruits, candy, gelato and pastries but meh..The buffet selection is scarce and if you decide to go close to closing time whether it be lunch or dinner the food isn't really refilled. The lunch selection is not the same as dinner and the only thing thats made fresh in front of you is sushi. There are perks like 50% off on your birthday, Seniors day and Ladies night but really it's whatever. It says it offers a variety of different cuisines but don't expect authenticity. Check it out if you like.....
