Restaurant Comings & Goings

Looks like a Blondies Pizza is opening at the car garage at the bottom of the Wallace Bridge on the Dundas side. Great addition!

I noticed a Blondies going up at Parliament and Gerrard too but the logo looked different. It looked more like the one that is in Commerce Court
 
Ah nice, so that is what's going on with that building. Good spot as it serves communities from both sides of the train tracks.

The secret is out............that an influential man-about-town from the north-west end of the City loves all things Leslieville. Accordingly, outposts of Leslieville favourites are now being shipped to you. 🤣

If Black Lab or Rorschach Brewery wanted to open a new location out here they'd be welcomed too. ;)
 
A new wine bar called "Loop Line Wine & Food" will be opening at 643 Dupont St. near Christie. The space was formerly the location of Pimlico, a home accessories design shop.
 
German Doner Kebab is opening at 246 Queen St W, just east of John Street, and former location of Cafe Crepe.

The international chain hopes to open 100 new restaurants in Canada over the next 10 years:



The opening comes as German Doner Kebab gets set to open 100 new restaurants in Canada over the next ten years.

“The opening of our new flagship restaurant in Downtown Toronto will be a landmark moment for the brand in Canada as we get set to embark on a relentless period of growth throughout the next decade,” said German Doner Kebab, Managing Director for North America, Nigel Belton.

According to GDK, the new restaurant will fit 40 seats and create 30 new jobs for Toronto.

Each dish is prepared in front of customers, and kebabs are made using premium, lean meat and fresh local vegetables served in handmade toasted bread with an array of savoury signature sauces.

In the next 10 years, the brand plans to expand across Canada, adding to its 70 restaurants across the UK, Sweden, the USA, and the Middle East.
 
They are replacing Bosk with this high-priced banality?


Definitely an expense account lunch for the Bay Streeters. Not a great review from Eater on the New York location.


Those langoustines, in turn, boast a sweet, gas-grilled aroma, though they lack the intense, oceanic aroma these crustaceans have elsewhere. You didn’t inquire about the price, because you got tired of asking “How much do these actually cost?” You figured a few prawns would cost less than caviar service. You figured wrong. They’re a cool $87 for an appetizer’s worth of meat. This is when you start to spew expletives.

I wonder how they will tweak the prices here. $87 apps won't fly in Toronto, but the report there says it has seating for 100. Given that, I assume there's some much cheaper options on the menu, but on the other hand the rent on that location will be insane, and they would need to turn those tables twice on every night to make any money if most people will be spending much less.

The original Montreal restaurant has more reasonable prices, but still - $25 for a green salad?
 
Estiatorio Milos, a Greek seafood themed international restaurant group, are opening up inside the Shangri-La Hotel building on University Ave:


They updated the article with "Clarification: Representatives from the Shangri-La issued a statement denying that Estiatorio Milos is opening at its hotel."
 
Tacos 101 has opened at 178 Baldwin Street (west of Spadina) in Kensington Market. They were previous at Dundas East & Church, but closed down due to the Pemberton condo being constructed on that block.

 
Loop Line Wine & Food has recently opened at 643 Dupont Street, a bit east of Christie Street.
