Maria provided excellent service and was very accommodating to my guest. We had a Sup Sucker, Hibiscus Tea, Carrot Ginger Soup, Fresh Assorted Bread, Beet Carpaccio with Arugula Salad, Beef Curry, and Blueberry Vegan Cheesecake. Maria did the extra mile in providing service in being very attentive, even with changing cutlery as my guest requested smaller spoons that were not as deep for soup. For a Monday dinner, this place provided a high-end downtown Toronto King Street experience. The decor is on point and excellent quality restaurant for business casual experiences.
My third time here, it gets better every time! The kale Caesar was perfectly seasoned, and my truffle gnocchi was incredible - I love how they brown each individual gnocchi, a little crispiness in every bite. Apple strudel was delicious. My partner loved the carrot ginger soup and chicken schnitzel. We also drove 40 minutes to dine here because there aren’t any farm-to-table restaurants as good as this! And Brandon was a wonderful and pleasant server. Thank you!
I had heard about this Franks Organic Restaurant a year ago but with my busy schedule was not able to experience sooner. Well the special occasion My Mother’s Birthday was the perfect opportunity and it did not disappoint. The flavour of all the dishes were amazing like awakening my taste buds . The fresh baked in house bread with whipped salted butter hmmm yummy. I had the beet carpaccio salad with grilled chicken breast added. I was delighted if you get a chance to visit this place for lunch, dinner or a special occasion it will be a great experience. ❤️
Visited for a team lunch and it was a good experience overall. Highly recommend the Housemade Gnocchi which was delicious. For apps, we tried the Tapas Trio, Charcuterie, and Susage Flight – between the three I'd probably recommend the first two. The waiter funnily was getting confused between vegan and vegetarian, which probably shouldn't happen at a place like this.
Very beautiful place to have dinner. The atmosphere is very pleasant and romantic. Food is very delicious, lots of options for gluten and dairy free dietary choices. Service is excellent. Definitely will come back. Also they have store next door with very pleasant prices for organic food.
This restaurant is top-notch! Food is fantastic with many dietary options! Service is so impressive, not an easy accomplishment these days!
Excellent experience at Franks Organic Restaurant! The staff were so friendly and attentive, I want to thank those there when we visited: Brandon our waiter, Alexandrea, Rebecca, Will and Jason. The food was delicious, presented very well and we even took some home. If you are looking for a beautiful atmosphere and amazing service, this is the place. I can’t wait to go again. I highly recommend them.
Absolutely loved my experience at Frank's Organic Garden Restaurant! The food was not only delicious but also presented beautifully. The portion sizes were just right, minimizing waste. The staff was incredibly polite and friendly, creating a warm atmosphere. Special shoutout to their magic chaga latte—cured my sore throat like magic! Highly recommend this wonderful restaurant and marketplace. 👌
Our server who has served us before understands hospitality and is definitely a keeper. You were out of Braised Beef and the Beef Stroganoff (on special) was already made with dairy products. So I settled for the burger which was below Franks standards. The rap music was surprising, especially just before Christmas! It made the atmosphere less pleasant than usual.
Excellent meal as usual.
Had a great time with my sister was visiting from out of town. Couple days ago. Alex was a superb server. Food was ok, slightly bland. Nice place overall. Definitely coming back when In town.
This place was so good I have the carnivore pizza and it was packed with flavour. The Service was amazing and there was a few mistakes made but they compensated quite well
Food was ok not good or great, finished my plate , Maria the waitress was a bit of a odd woman, kept winking at me, and she should probably cover her self up some more, because of her age not everything needs to be seen, place is good for my wheelchair though
We had a great dinner with friends. Our server was amazing and the food was delicious! Everything was super! We had a great time! Parking: No issues. Lots of parking.
Amazing staff Maria was my waitress and she was sooo friendly and knowledgeable. I would recommend this restaurant to everyone! The chicken curry was amazing and the beef was very tender, to die for! Maria recommended such delicious dessert as well, apple strudel and chocolate cake. 10/10!
1st time I was served a raw piece of salmon. It was charred on outside raw inside. They replaced it but then it was again charred and rather dry. They gave a discount but surprising the chef would left a dish go out to a customer that wasn t perfect. Also I mentioned it was our anniversary you would expect on the dessert some form of acknowledgement. But nothing. Whole experience not what I ve had in past. Disappointed !
We visited Franks Organic Garden for the first time yesterday. We were looking for a restaurant that focused on organic food with gluten and dairy-free options and Franks fit the bill. Their menu has lots of different options and variety to suit different tastes. The cream of mushroom soup was delicious, salmon with dill sauce was tasty as was the pasta bolognese. Only dish we were a bit disappointed in was the chicken scaloppini, which was bit dry/overcooked, and the mushroom topping was somewhat bland. Desserts were great and the celiac diner in our group was impressed with the selection of gluten free delicacies. The restaurant is lovely with nice ambiance. For those seeking takeout, they have a small market adjacent to the restaurant where you can buy their offerings to take home. Overall we had a good dining experience and plan to return to try some of their other dishes. Vegetarian options: Vegan options available for selected dishes Dietary restrictions: Nice selection of gluten free and/or dairy free options Parking: Plenty of free parking
Great as always! Thank you.
Fantastic food. The pizza was cool by the time it arrived but it was delicious and healthy none-the-less. My father and his wife also loved their dishes. The prices were reasonable. Vegetarian options: There are many options listed as vegan and others that may be vegetarian. Recommended for vegans and vegetarians. Dietary restrictions: Gluten free listed on some menu items.
Dined in last week with my family, staff are all incredibly nice and friendly. Food was awesome! Not many restaurants that serve high quality, organic items Food
From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by the variety of organic produce, and meats.. Everything looked incredibly fresh, and you can tell they prioritize quality and sustainability. The store is well-organized and I love that they highlight local farms and eco-friendly brands. The staff is very knowledgeable and approachable. Diane became my go-to person, highlighting the variety of farm fresh products the the marketplace offers. She knew every product in the store, and was very well informed on where all their produce/meats came from. Even the freshly baked goods were made with wholesome ingredients. Everything was fresh! Oh and if you are looking for a special gift, make sure to ask for Diane as she will give you great ideas on their gift baskets of goodies! Happy shopping!
Amazing mushroom soup and carnivor pizza. Will definitely go back again.
Nice food nice service, totally worse going back again
Food was delicious and the ambiance was cool. A little bit pricey.
The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, and the food was fresh and nourishing. Highly recommend.
Franks Organic Garden is an absolute gem! From the warm welcome to the fresh, farm-to-table experience, this place is a must-visit if youre into delicious, organic food with serious flavor. We started with the Sausage Flight--each one had its own unique seasoning, and you could taste the quality in every bite. It also comes with house-made condiments- ketchup and mustard, and pickled veggies that you can build your own hotdog! For mains, we tried the house-made gnocchi and beef goulash. The gnocchi was soft, pillowy, and covered in the most flavourful sauce! The beef goulash was hearty, rich, and exactly what I needed for the ultimate comfort meal. We also had the chicken scallopini, which was tender, juicy, and perfectly seasoned. To finish things off, I couldnt resist the apple strudel with vanilla sauce, and OMG, it was the perfect sweet ending! Warm, flaky, and not too sweet, just the right balance. I also ordered the Magic Chaga Latte and it was a real surprise! Creamy, earthy, and packed with health benefits. It was the perfect way to wrap up this culinary adventure. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a delicious, wholesome dining experience, and knowing that everything is organic made it all taste even better. Cant wait to come back!
This place was recommended. I d have to say was super excited about making the trek yet probably will not be back. My chicken scallopini was dry and maybe a tablespoon of veg. Bar was lively, service awesome. My hubs reacted to the desert. We weren t asked about allergies which we both have. Sorta disappointed and not worth the $
Best
Incredible food, atmosphere and service. Unique and fresh menu. Staff were professional, friendly and extremely attentive. We will definitely be back and recommending to family and friends. Food
We recently had Franks Organic Restaurant Cater to the house we had rented for a week long event as part of our Tour with Human Garage and team. Sophia and her team looked after us and provided us will delicious Organic food which was plentiful. We cannot say enough good things. We had to make several changes throughout the week to the schedule and Sophia was very accommodating and helpful. Every meal was prepared with love and care and you could feel that vibration in the food! They went above and beyond and we will definitely use them again when we come through the area!
My daughter and I dined at Franks on August 29. The atmosphere is always beautiful, with great dining music. The service was outstanding. The disappointment is the food. I ordered a Caesar salad with chicken. It was very small and just kale. I enjoyed the chicken but that s it. My daughter s chicken schnitzel meal was a good portion. We had the cookies for dessert which were very good. It cost over $200 for just two people. I think it s too expensive for what you get. Sorry
Nice environment Parking: Nice people and perfect quality Kid-friendliness: Have nice plates for kids
Clean, Excellent service and Quality food Parking: Plenty of parking Kid-friendliness: My Granddaughters Loved the pizza, spaghetti, icecream, and the crayons and drawings to keep busy while the food was being prepared...
Dietary restrictions: Great accommodation of allergies. Ample parking. Food
Saige was an excellent host and went over and above. Food was perfect. What a great experience.
Went to Sunday Brunch for the first time. Everything was beyond our expectations! Great service & atmosphere & clean/tasty foods. So glad to find this hidden gem in Aurora. We will be back for another occasion for sure! Food
I ordered the curry vegetable Thai, it s so small. Tasted good but it s like a tiny bit of rice and the plate was empty.
Portion was very small/pricy and service was slow. We were the only people there and everything took so long. I recommend going here if you already eat cause if you come here hungry, youll leave hungry.
Absolutely amazing food and service
Decided to drop in and checked it out as recently moved here . Was so surprised and delighted with the food and presentation and the service . Maria was so welcoming and a real pleasure to meet .
Staff was fantastic. They looked after us professionally, super courteous and engaging Cheers to you Harald Food : 5/5
This was the first time my wife and I visited this restaurant. I am truly amazed about some of the high ratings I noticed on Google Reviews. This was certainly not our experience. We could not say much about the atmosphere because except for another couple, we were the only ones in the restaurant, however, the place was clean and nicely furnished. My wife ordered a $20.00 Smoked Salmon and I ordered Chicken Alfredo from the main course. Since my wife has a severe wheat allergy, she could not eat the bread that comes with the meal and for a $5.00 additional charge she had to order gluten free bread. First of all, it took an awfully long time to get our food, especially since we were, aside from the other couple that had their food already, the only customers in the entire place. Once the food arrived, it came in stages, my wife s dish first an my, supposedly warm dish, a short while later. What a disappointment! 4 really tiny pieces of Salmon and enough gluten free bread to satisfy 2 0r 3 people. A bit more Salmon and an appropriate quantity of bread would certainly have been better solution for a $25.00 starter. My Chicken Alfredo was barely warm, lacked the usual rich and creamy sauce and the pieces of chicken tasted dry, actually, the entire pasta dish had little or no flavour what so ever. This was by far the worst Chicken Alfredo meal I have ever been served and I truly like the dish. After letting the server know about our experience, we received a 20% discount and in order to compensate the server, who was absolutely professional, friendly and polite, we added a 20 % tip.
This was a disappointing experience. Although the staff were pleasant enough there was reluctance to acknowledge deficiencies. We waited over 1.5 hours for our meal and it arrived lukewarm or overcooked and in very small portions.
The squash Ravioli my wife loved the amount and flavour. I enjoyed the chicken curry will be ordering that the next time for sure. Vegan cheese cake couldnt tell it was vegan. I would recommend eating at the restaurant. Also grab some stuff from the market for all products have been great we tried.
A truly delicious dinner, with kind and attentive service. Highly recommend it for the quality and wholeness of the ingredients - organic and/or ethically grown - and the scrumptious tastes and flavours. A real treat, particularly because we seldom eat out. It s nice to know that a restaurant such as this exists. Vegan and gluten-free options are available, and also yummy. Check it out!
Amazing fresh food. Lots of gluten free options.
A relaxing and cozy atmosphere. Very happy to find this organic restaurant with excellent service! Thank you Reza for serving my family
The food was to die for and our server went above and beyond. Will be going back!
Amazing restaurant and outstanding service. Everyone enjoyed the food. Coming back again.
Dietary restrictions: Many gluten-free options including dessert. My favourite is the Lemon Blueberry Cake Food
Franks Organic Garden has become a favorite, whether I m grabbing something fresh from the market or entertaining over dinner. The selection is very good. The smoked salmon cake from the deli counter really stands out it s the best I ve ever had, hands down. If you enjoy desserts, the apple strudel is top-notch, and the GF chocolate Florentines are as good as Ive had I find myself picking them up more often than I should. The in-house chocolates are also worth mentioning high quality food and full of flavor. That can be said for just about all their offerings. The staff are on point friendly, helpful, and courteous. Whether youre inside or out on the patio, and the location is super convenient with good hours. Whether you re dining in or just dropping in to pick up something for later, Frank s Organic Garden is a place that has never disappointed. The place just hums. Its definitely worth checking out.
Food was amazing! Drinks great.
Our family enjoys this restaurant, the top priority is organic food for our health. Were grateful for having an organic food restaurant in Canada. Thanks to the founder for opening it.
Spent 80$ on two entrees that took an hour to arrive at our table while the restaurant was half empty. our bread arrived 25mins after we ordered it. Gnocchi - salty beyond a shadow of a doubt, texture was great, gnocchi was fresh and perfect but it tasted like they dumped tablespoons of salt in this single dish mushroom risotto- great flavour, terrible presentation, it looked like a grey soupy mess, the plate was dirty with spillage/not cleaned before coming to the table. The kicker - 2 demitasse tea spoons, not normal tea spoons, the tiny spoons that are smaller than normal teaspoons of fine grated parmesan was extra 4$ FOUR FKING DOLLARS. Absolutely abhorrent and unacceptable.
We had a late lunch and were incredibly underwhelmed. Our server was fantastic and everyone was friendly (though the manager seemed uninvested in our brief interaction.) The location was nice enough though and had good music and overall ambiance. But as far as the food went it had its ups and downs. The pasta bolognese was great, and the risotto was good, but the salmon was dry and the schnitzel tasted homemade (but not in a good way). The spreads for the tapas trio were nice, but the bread was boring. Also, the plating seemed more like a cafeteria than a restaurant. The side of vegetables on most dishes looked to be straight from a freezer bag (they probably weren t, but they certainly weren t appetizing.) The wine and beer list was uninspired considering there are so many great organic options available. So many little touches felt like poor simulacra of what you d expect to find in Europe. Even with inflation and prices through the roof everywhere, this was incredibly overpriced for what was delivered.
Franks organic garden is our favourite local restaurant and we are regulars! The food is always fresh, healthy and delicious and the service very attentive. Their market place is a great venue to purchase most of their menu items and their house made desserts are phenomenal! We can t live without Franks food!
Absolutely adore this hidden gem! The food is fabulously fresh, prices are great, and the service is consistently kind and attentive. Were regulars for a reason!
This restaurant is absolutely wonderfully. The food was delicious and service was exceptional. had the cold cucumber soup which was divine and taste perfect. The carrot soup was also exceptional and the chicken shnitzel was wonderful. I cannot say enough to recommend this place. So glad I made the trip to try it.
Franks Organic Garden is a true gem! The quality of the meats is unlike any other Ive experienced, and the produce is consistently delicious with a fantastic selection. What sets Franks apart isnt just the exceptional quality of their food, especially in their marketplace, but also the incredible staff. Every visit is enjoyable, thanks to the remarkable team from the meat counter staff to those restocking fresh veggies, to the friendly faces behind the counter cashing me out. They know me by name and always make an effort to chat. Their warmth and dedication make each shopping trip a pleasure. The management is equally impressive. As a frequent shopper, visiting 2-3 times a week (sometimes more), Ive seen firsthand how management goes out of their way to engage with customers and ask for feedback. They are genuinely focused on improving the business, and I have the utmost respect for their efforts. Franks Organic Garden is a true five-star experience. Highly recommend! Also .please try the brownies by the counter insanely good!
We have dined at Frank s many times and continue to enjoy the experience. It s always nice to know the quality of the food you are receiving, and Frank s standards are extraordinary
Maybe my expectations were high but the food was overpriced and not great. I really wanted to like it but the whole meal was disappointing.
Excellent food! Excellent service!
Exceptional service, delicious organic food, and a new modern fine dining atmosphere. My wife and I own an organic farm. We travel across North America searching for organic markets, farms and restaurants. Franks organic kitchen is the best of both fine dining and a beautiful market. Highly suggest. We traveled 3+ hours each way to enjoy the experience. Well worth the drive. Dietary restrictions: I have a gluten allergy and my wife has an egg allergy, the staff are very knowledgeable and were quick to confirm with the chef in the immaculate kitchen visible from the dining area and the market.
Great place - had a table of 11, so we overwhelmed them on a Tuesday, but overall, fantastic service, very accommodating (we moved from inside to the great patio), and the food was excellent across the board - we had about 9 different dishes at the table and all were a hit and well commented on. Will definitely be back! Vegetarian options: lots of options Parking: fantastic, close by and ample spots
Very noisy. Service was extremely slow. A disappointing experience.
A gorgeous restaurant with amazing food! I had the squash ravioli, and highly recommend it. The gnocchi was delicious, as well as the coconut mousse cake. Claudio was attentive and engaging! Thank you for a wonderful evening.
Delicious
Good but expensive, 6 pc of ravioli for $30 Response to reply: I understand, but I believe the point of a main course is a meal, which should leave your guests relatively satisfied in terms of hunger. I suggest you add some veggie sides to this to make it a little more filling. I looked forward to this for a weekend dinner and had to order something else as ilI was no where near full. I am a 110lb female.
A unique concept focused on local and organic ingredients with a German flare.
All organic with lots of gluten free options. We bought a bunch of food from the market in including the carrot ginger soup 10/10 and the gluten free chocolate cherry cookies. Just be careful, a lot of the gf desserts have either oat flour or almond flour.
ABSOLUTELY CANT BE TRUSTED. When my wife and I started going to Franks Organic Kitchen we saw they had a pretty good deal on water refills. The deal was, If you buy a refillable glass gallon water jug ($13.99) you can fill it for FREE during business hours. Well look at that...they have NOW reneged on the deal and it now costs $4 to fill. THAT IS NOT RIGHT FRANK!! A deal is a deal. If you CANT BE TRUSTED with a simple water contract how do I know you are really using organic ingredients? BASED ON PRINCIPAL my wife and I will not be going back EVER. ONE STAR FOR YOU FRANK!
It was my first visit here and we were very disappointed. Very few options and they tasted like hospital food.
I m sorry, but I had to instantly write this review. 24$ before TAXES! absolute insanity. What is this portion size???? Tinniest little chicken bites and not even a full cup of some white rice????? I m actually so upset and just disappointed.
Food is amazingly fresh and tasty, though beware because some food portions can be a bit small (think fancy restaurant plating). Had the pepperoni pizza - delicious thin crust, lots of flavour. My husband had the curry and found it wasnt as flavourful as other places and quite bland. I think stick with the more Italian dishes and you shouldnt be disappointed.
Brought my mom here for Mother s Day. The word organic was appealing to me when I first booked this restaurant. We loved the atmosphere and service was great. The mimosas were delicious, but the food was to neither of our liking. The pizza was too saucy, soggy and the crust not crunchy. The mushroom risotto had green peas and regular champignon mushrooms, a no no for my tastebuds. Small portions and costly. Disappointed. organic does not necessarily equal tasty. Hello again Franks. Thank you for responding to my review and even a bigger thank you for your lovely gesture to invite me back for another taste of the Margherita pizza (this was what we ordered). I will pass on your offer but I m happy to make suggestions for pizza recipe improvement: It needs less sauce, more crust crunch (preferably a wood-burned edge, at least that s how I like it, but of course, many tastes many opinions). As for the risotto, I m a visual person and would have loved to seen a white-coloured risotto. It was grayish. I would also be using porcini mushrooms and trying to make it way more creamier. I m not a food critic but I ve had lots of restaurant experiences, both abroad and local. I love the idea of organic, thus the reason I chose your place. Thank you for taking time to respond. All the very best. Bella
This restaurant is out of this world!! Fantastic food! Wonderful service! Maria was amazing and friendly! I came here to celebrate my birthday/anniversary and it was my first time. She was wonderful, full of life and energy! She made the night so special for my wife and I! If you have a chance to go it is worth every penny and ask for Maria!! You will not be disappointed! She is a gem!
Food was very good but the focaccia was definitely not real focaccia. It was more of a Flatbread. And the servers need more training. There was only one server for the whole restaurant so service was lacking.
Excellent service and premium quality food. Ive already been back to shop and dine.
I went for lunch, browsed the menu and asked the waiter about options for a filling meal. At the end, the only option was to either ordering a three course lunch ($75 roughly) or a $30 entree. The food was tasteful but portions ( protein, carbs, and veggies) seemed to be intended for toddlers, very small. Good quality and service, but price is too high for the size of the portions.
mediocre experience . don t know why there s a high star review. started off nice and went downhill quick. forgetting our appetizer, water not being filled, food was nothing great . just sad and disappointed lol
Logan our server made our experience an excellent one. What a wonderful time we had!
What a great place to dine and shop! Everything is being done right at this spot. All the ingredients are organic and the food is made from scratch. The gnocchi and pizza are my favourite items on the menu. I always stop by the Marketplace for the sourdough bread, organic produce and unique items I can t find anywhere else! I wish there were more locations in the GTA
Every dish is organic and tastes delicious. Highly recommend the schnitzel and wings!
Excellent, hospitable service by Stacey, Kimberly, Hannah and Brandon. Jason led the team with attention to detail. It was an 85th birthday celebration and Frank s Organic Garden was a great choice of restaurants. Highly recommended.
Amazing place, a must try! The food is super tasty, nothing fancy but you can taste the organic products quality. The ambiance is pretty good and relaxed. The person who serves always makes a difference, our server was not having a good day and it was quite clear but that did not spoiled out night. Prices are quite reasonable knowing that almost everything is locally grown and organic. I would go back for another chicken cutlet, I also tried the goulash but that is only good in Prague!
Love this place! The produce and the people (band name?). Thank you.
Always delicious
What can I say. Absolutely amazing place. Great food. Great atmosphere. Wonderful market place, and probably the greatest staff Ive ever met.
Today was my first experience at Franks. My mom sister and I went for lunch we were greeted with friendly and attentive staff, and a gloriously classy yet calming atmosphere. Cozy bathrooms with dual stalls, franks seems to utilize their products everywhere you turn - using their organic handmade soap - which left your hands feeling cleaner than the day you placed in your mothers arms -was just the beginning of this dazzling experience. I ordered the carrot and ginger soup and was offered to have the order split as my sister wanted to try it as well! This was so thoughtful and made both of us extremely happy! The carrot ginger soup was such a refreshing and delicious treat for my taste buds prepping them for what could only be the ultimate dining experience. I then ordered the spinach stuff Ravioli - My sister ordered the curry crusted cauliflower with a spinach risotto. My mom ordered the classic margarita, pizza. When the dishes came out - all in a timely manner and delivered at the same time to our table. We shared the first bite together as families should. The ravioli melted in my mouth. It was as if I was transported to an Italian Nonna s dining room table with handmade pasta that never sat in my stomach. After we had our first bite, we instantly insisted that each other try the delicious meals that were in front of us, each bite seemed to be better than the last?! I wish I remembered to take pictures, but these meals were so tasty - our phones never made an appearance.. If you were looking for a home-cooked meal, where you can taste the love, feel satisfied and experience food as if, for the first time, I highly recommend you dine at Frank s. We were so excited about the meal that we instantly went to the market side and bought more things to try at home. I am happy to report that this will be our restaurant whenever our family gets together. It s simply just feels like home.
Amazing store and restaurant!! Great burger and other meals are amazing too!!! Can t go wrong.
Great food! Great service! I am thrilled that we went here and can t wait to go back again and again !
Awesome healthy organic food, cool little produce market and great friendly staff.
Logan is awesome. Went out of his way to help me find exactly what I was looking for. Food is amazing and always fresh!
Delicious food and respectful treatment. Ill come again. Thank you and great staff
We had a perfect lunch. The kale salad was delicious. I had the salmon and it was out of this world. The rest of my table thoroughly enjoyed all their food. But the best part was Matthew our server. He gives service that is an 11 out of 10. Friendly, helpful, awesome, prompt and beyond what you would expect. Thank you Franks Organic. Thank you Matthew.
I really wanted to love this place. The ambience was giving me downtown vibes so I was excited to try it. I had the roast beef and It was just ok. To be honest it had cooled down when it got to my table. And my husband had a very sad looking schnitzel. (Sorry guys) The trio tapas was very very good! We did enjoy that. And the drink menus was good. I think I want to try some other items on the menu next time. I think my opinion might change after that. It has a lot of potential still. The ambiance is beautiful and casual so it s a great place to meet for a coffee with a friend.
I had the Rigatoni Bolognese. It was delicious, however the portion was not very generous. I would say it was likely 3/4 of the standard that should have been prepared. The same for their desserts and Charcuterie board. Other than that it was pretty good.
Everything about this place was amazing! Simple, yet elegant decor. Fresh and high quality products. There was a lot of gluten free, vegan options as well.
Really love this small organic store and restaurant. Great selection and food tastes delicious. A little on the pricey side but worth it.
Lived it. All organic for a great price. Selection for everyone. Great service as well. Melinda our server was Amazing!
Amazing food, great staff. I really enjoyed my experience here. We got the pizza and gnocchi, as well as the charcuterie and beet salad. Very interactive experience and our waitress was super helpful and kind to us. Visited the marketplace after dinner and got some goodies to take home. I will definitely be going back! :)
Restaurant was excellent. Lots of good choices. Staff was attentive and knowledgeable. The market had great choices as well. Thank you Sandra for the tour.
My family and I recently visited Franks for a birthday celebration. Unfortunately, this was a terrible experience. The service was horrible, felt like there was no management present, all the service staff were hanging out at the bar rarely attending their tables. Food took almost half an hour to come out after we ordered and no one came to check on us. Overall, atmosphere felt very disorganized and chaotic. Will not be returning or recommending.
AMAZING SERVICE!! Daniel and Channel are fantastic. We will be back!!
Decent food, very small portions, nice ambiance but it ends there. The prices are so ridiculously high it makes you wonder why a billionaire (Frank S) feels the need to line his pockets further with average folks money. I now understand why we were the only ones in the resturant at 5:00pm on a Saturday! Stick to auto parts Frank.
Went for brunch and it was excellent. From the appetizers to the meal and then dessert, everything was perfect. Portions were proper and flavours throughout the dishes were outstanding. And the mimosas were delicious. Great place for vegan options too. The atmosphere and servers were also amazing. Great place all around.
Friendly, knowledgeable staff. The store is bright and clean. Great place to meet friends or have lunch meeting in the restaurant. Food is fresh and delicious.
Another truly amazing and unforgettable gastronomic experience! Ive been to Frank s Organic Garden previously on few occasions in the past, since their opening and they never fail. Consistently delivering exquisite, meticulously crafted, delicious meals, served to your liking with poise and courtesy by a very well trained, very attentive, professional staff. Organic food does taste different! It brings back those good memories from my childhood when visiting grandparents I would enjoy fruits and vegetables from their garden in the backyard. Their soups, kale salad, beets juice, chicken or beef, goulash, I enjoyed the most. It makes you really feel good about the fact that all those food ingredients on your plate are, in fact, organic, chemicals free, delivered from properly tested and trusted farms, producers, always fresh. Somebody took the time and effort at the highest professional level to think about developing healthy, clean nutrition for people living their busy lives in the city, for families with children, trying to introduce and maintain a healthy lifestyle, give their children only the best nutrition there is. It is a good for you food for seniors and many other people who want to make a big difference in their overall wellbeing and eating habits. This is also a great place to go and have your weekly food supplies, so that you could simply warm up pre-cooked meals at home or at work. The colorful interior, positive, welcoming atmosphere, overall good energy of this establishment make you to go there again and again, bringing along your friends and family to share a tasty, healthy meal and share that feeling good together. I think it makes your dining experience even more special when you see a legendary Magna Man, Frank Stronach himself, having his lunch or dinner right at the same restaurant, enjoying food coming from the same kitchen, served by the same Chef who just cooked organic meal for you. Thank you All for doing an amazing job and, please, keep up a good work. It is much appreciated by your loyal customers like me.
Had dinner there last week and the food was delicious. The wine selection was also well thought out. Both the menu and wine list are about quality over quantity which is nice to see. Cassandra was my waiter; she did a great job!
Best vegetarian options in Aurora
Love this place. Great food in the market and the restaurant is fantastic. The staff is also super nice and always seem very happy.
Amazing place... I enjoyed the calming environment and slowly sipped a delicious cappuccino accompanied with amazing apple strudel.... Great Staff ! Great Food !
We had a fantastic lunch takeout today with some fresh organic lettuce! It s amazing value for quality food! Highly recommended! Will go back in the spring and summer for more fresh organic produce!
The food was delicious and service was excellent
Great Easter brunch at Frank s! I recently visited Franks organic garden and had a fantastic time! The fresh and flavorful produce was absolutely delicious and I loved the fact that everything was organic. The service was top-notch and the staff were extremely friendly and knowledgeable about the products they were selling. Overall, I had a great time at Franks organic garden and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for fresh, healthy, and organic food with perfect portion. If youre in the area, be sure to stop by and check it out! **Highly recommend their in-house made beet juice, they only have 3 ingredients(beets, apple cider vinegar and pumpkin seeds oil). I was never a beets fan but their beet juice is something I never had before. Refreshing, flavorful, and clean recipe.
Delicious food, friendly service but very small portion of salad. Portions of Main courses are not generous either. I wouldn t go there if I am really hungry, but good for people who want to savor the fine food.
I was in the area and decided to buy few items from this shop. I saw they have a nice patio and the weather was good- The staff welcomed me so I sat to eat. They brought me the menu which looked tempting! however I sat there for 30 min and no one came to my table to bring me even some water or ask if I am ready to order. They came and served the other couple but they did not even look at me. I could not wait any longer but I was shocked by level of disrespect about this place. I will never visit here again! I went to another restaurant right across AND I was served in less than 5 min!
Beautiful decor and pretty plates. Great spot for Sunday brunch.
Organic fine dining at its best! I had the wild sockeye salmon with the celery puree all the flavors were distinctly unique and did not clash with each other ..an exciting culinary adventure
Great service and atmosphere. Delicious food.
We recently discovered this restaurant and were really impressed. The interior is so beautiful and colourful. The menu is all organic . Everything we ordered was delicious. I like the fact that you can find all ingredients and products in their store right away. The seeded bread that comes with the cheese plata is soo good . The carrot ginger soup is so yummy and what we needed for these cold days. The staff is very nice and friendly . One of our favorite places now.
I have had, pizza, burgers, steak, roast beef, most of the menu and all are of high quality. The staff when I take my little girl there are so friendly and welcoming. Have recommended to many
Delicious food Excellent service We will be back
Wonderful ambience, great service and delicious fresh food with exceptional presentation. Highly recommend!
All organic food. Great tastes and very reasonably priced.
Absolutely amazing! There should only be restaurants and grocery stores like this. Everything is organic on the menu, everything in this place is healthy. The food at the restaurant was fantastic! Theyve thought of every detail and how to be healthy. We drove from an hour away, we want to move to Aurora just for this place, its like a dream.
Delicious fresh, local organic farm foods and their prepared meals, desserts and sauces are excellent! Prices reflect the quality but not overpriced. So healthy yummy!
Used to love this place, sadly quality is constantly declining.
The food was absolutely delicious and our server Logan went above and beyond to take care of us.
The quality was good but wouldn t say much about the quantity of food items. Given it is organic the price was fair though.
Classic desserts and nice atmosphere
Service was very good, food was very nice. Smaller portions and a little noisey but nice
restaurant. Sold in various types
Friendly and welcoming staff who delivered fantastic service. The Latin dance event was fun and live DJ played great music.
Cant wait to go there my friend loves this place and cant wait to take us there
Bit over priced for what you get in my opinion.
Loved the gluten-free pumpkin pie very much!
Love love love! We visit often and really enjoy everything about Franks! Great quality, fresh ingredients and love the vegan options! My husband eats meat and loves the quality and how its prepared. Service is also always spot on. Highly recommend! Only downside is Sundays is brunch menu only however I think theyve recently expanded that or will be soon. Also kids friendly
Delicious and organic. Lovely decor and staff. Excellent choices!
Decided to check out Franks Organic Garden with a couple of my vegan friends. Chose this restaurant because it showed some vegan options on their menu online and it was a central location for the three of us to meet up. The restaurant itself was well appointed and the service was excellent. Our server, Kimberly, was well informed about the menu and provided excellent and cheerful service. Two of us ordered the vegan pizza. The pizza was wood fired but was far too thin and crunchy for my liking. The entire crust was burnt. The This was the only vegan pizza option so I also wish that I had asked for no kale. Arugula is always a better addition to a pizza if you ask me. My other friend had an item off of their Fall Features Menu the vegan butternut squash ravioli which she let us try. It was extremely tasty. The only issue was that the serving size was very small 6 teeny tiny raviolis. It would definitely not fill the average person, but with the cost being about $21.00, if you add an appetizer, the lunch would have cost over $50.00. They did have a few other vegan options that looked good (mushroom risotto, Thai Curry, Spaghetti Pomodoro), so I may try another visit if I happen to be in the area again. Their online menus differed from the menu that we received. Need to update their website so that people are clear as to what they offer. I loved the little market that they have attached to the restaurant. I purchased a sourdough bread ($6.99). They had some beautiful organic produce there as well but again, a little pricey.
an organic restaurant with fresh ingredients food taste is relatively mild, but I feel healthy and good, super friendly services. the place has classic decor and cosy atmosphere. It is connected to a health product store.You can finish your meal and buy some healthy food
The food was absolutely fresh and so flavourful. Staff was very attentive and polite. I will definitely be going back soon. Butternut squash ravioli was amazing.
My wife and I had lunch today and were blown away with the downtown buzz of Franks Organic Garden in Aurora. Staff were amazing and plentiful to pay attention to your every gesture! Food - well, we had the Penne Bolognese and the Carnivore pizza - oh my goodness! Both were delicious and a must order if you are a pasta or pizza lover! Nice small wine list offered for lunch as well as organic healthy juices. Great experience, wonderful food and the brownie was perfect and my wifes favorite! Coming back for a family meal when my family joins us at Christmas! Thank You!
Delicious especially the celery root yummy!
Their food really lacks seasoning and salt. Just tastes like the straight ingredients with no flavour embellishment whatsoever. Maybe good for people who are on a low sodium diet. Unfortunate because I feel like there s so much potential here! Otherwise fresh ingredients, pretty presentation, and nice environment
Great hidden gem in Aurora. Produce & staff are simply wonderful.
Best food and best service. Thank you!
Ordered from skip the. What kind of portion size is that? For $26.00 the container was mainly filled with a watery, flavourless sauce. The peas taste like freezer burn, and it was cold (despite the high tech takeaway containers). I called to speak to a manager at 7:30pm and was told there was no manager in the building. This was my New Years dinner becuase I will be working tomorrow. It was more like a child s snack. If you are going to sell half portion food then list it as a side dish, not entree.
I love Franks organic market and their desserts. I had a pleasure to dine in a few times and was always highly satisfied until...tonight. I booked a table for fixed price menu for NYE,which got cancelled and only regiral menu was offered which is fine. However,since we came in we felt rushed. We didnt have time to finish an appetizer before our dinner was served. For the main dish I had a shnitzel which was very dry and seems like preped ahead,potatoes were delicious but no any vegies with that.U husbands goulash had more rice than anything else. Within 35 min we finished our meal. I was looking for a delicious dinner with a great experience and I got ..what I got.I will come back to purchase a cake at the market but will never come back to the restaurant.
Always great food and great service!
Great atmosphere, best quality organic food and amazing service!
Tonight we celebrated our Anniversary at Frank s. The food and service was fabulous. I love the fact that everything is made with organic produce/ingredients and lots of gluten free options. The setting is intimate and beautiful.
We have had many dinners at Frank s and the food is always delicious. Everything is made with organic products, always fresh and a great selection on the menu. It s a great space for hosting business meetings/lunch meetings since it s intimate, classy and beautiful. Great place to take clients.
AMAZING experience at Frank s Organic Garden today! Went for a Valentine s Day lunch and everything from the service, to the menu selections, wine, our meal, service everything was perfection. We had the bread and olive oil/balsamic dip to start (SO GOOD), Caesar salad (one of the best, freshest Caesar s I ve ever tasted), my partner had the beef chilli and I had the gnocchi. Everything was so delicious, you must try it for yourself! The market is so awesome, we got some organic olive tapenade and chocolate on the way out. I will MOST DEFINITELY be returning to this absolute gem of a place. 5 stars all the way!!!!
Ordered take out on Valentines Day and was disappointed on the quantity of food you get for the price. The Rigatoni pasta is literally 2 scoops of pasta. You would need to order two servings if you want to make this your main. Also ordered the Mediterranean pizza which was good and the so called Famous Chicken Schnitzel. This has got to be the thinest Schnitzel ever made with the thickness of a toonie and the portion the size of your hand. At a $23 dollar price Tag you cant help but feel like you got ripped off. All in all I really wanted to like this place but clearly the value is not there. Im giving this place 2 star because the taste itself is decent
Went for valentines day - Service - c+ Drinks - nothing special pizza - nice pasta - have had better beef - tasteless, bland, dry beet salad - nearly blew my mouth off with the amount of vinegar! everything needed salt / seasoning - bland overall
Delicious food! Would definitely recommend the schnitzel.
Amazing service for a lunch date with friends including the best gnocchi I ve ever had and a free replacement meal due to a misunderstanding on the guests part. A visit to the store afterwards provided me with some of the same items from the restaurant menu to try at home. All made completely from scratch. Organic, and accommodations for vegan, dairy-free, and gluten-free.
I went this evening with my 2 friends and we had an amazing time. The vibe and decor of the restaurant was very nice and the all staff (including the market staff) were very friendly, pleasant, and helpful! We tried the margarita pizza and ordered the mushroom risotto, spinach ravioli, and curry chicken. EVERYTHING WAS SO DELICIOUS! we can t wait to come back soon!!
Ordered the vegan pizza...thought it was supposed to be 8 pieces for 14$ (I must have had an old menu) came to $22.60 for a tiny floppy sloppy pizza, barely had cheese...flavour was good but floppy sloppy tiny pizza isnt it. Cute place though and love the whole idea, its too bad I feel ripped off
One of our new favourite lunch spots. Quality food, and its delicious. Some of the portions are small, for the price.
Outstanding!!! We had the BEST dining experience in Aurora in a long time. The food (all organic) service, and ambiance were A+ Crystal was exceptional and went above and beyond to provide excellent service and hospitality. She was extremely knowledgeable about the menu and offered excellent suggestions. The GF vegan pasta dish was fantastic! Good size portion and tasty tomato sauce. The caesar salad, especially the dressing was to die for. It s made in house and it s vegan (you would never know) The apple strudel and the vegan raspberry cheesecake are a must try. We appreciate Frank Stonach s vision in using healthy local organic ingredients that can also be purchased in the marketplace even after your dining experience, which we did. It was a nice touch when Ray, the manager, came over to see if everything was to our satisfaction. The ambiance is warm, clean, inviting, with nice music. A good selection of wine is offered. Overall, like Arnold says, I ll be back !!!
Best, highest quality food, amazing produce and products and wonderful service. Beyond happy and grateful for this place and the staff.
Amazing Restaurant and marketplace. The food is absolutely delicious. The service is incredible. I highly recommend the beautiful restaurant for dinner and they also have a great patio. Highly recommend Franks Organic Garden, the service is always above and beyond.
Great atmosphere, food is good, not great. Very friendly staff
Lovely organic food options, affordable and beautiful atmosphere for any occasion!
What an amazing experience! Great food, great service and such a beautiful establishment! Will definately be coming back! Thanks go Franks and his staff!
Great spot with organic gluten free options, nice decor lots of parking. Recommend the beef!
Great place The staff are amazing The butcher is very helpful and nice. Recommend this store and restaurant
Great food.
Popped in after seeing the sign from the street. So glad I did. Everything is fresh, clean and the staff very helpful and pleasant. Got fresh produce, ready-made snacks, and delighted with the gluten-free pastries! Will definitely be back! Looking forward to trying the restaurant as well.
This little spot is a diamond in the rough. What a beautiful, quaint space inside the elegantly decorated dine in area. With the genius idea of having a separate market area that sells everything on the menu and more. We dined on the complimentary bruschetta & seasoned pumpkin seeds. Then had our entrees of ravioli & gnocchi which were melt in your mouth delicious. On our way our we made a pit stop at the market and took home a plum tart for dessert. It was equally as delicious. The service was also wonderful. Highly recommend!! We will be back.
Delicious food well prepared in portions appropriate for the health minded. Attentive pleasant service.
Nice atmosphere but a little noisy. Good service but the portions are very small. I had a grilled chicken Cesar salad and the salad was so small it could fit in the palm of my hand with room to spare . That s said the food was very tasty. Also very pricey for a lunch . $40 with no drink , appetizer or dessert .
I had a very good dining experiences at Frank s Organic Garden. Our sever was very attentive, knowledgeable and full of personality. Sophia is a great asset to the restaurant. The food was fresh and delicious. The cesar salad, chicken florentine pizza and coconut curry stir-fry were perfectly cooked. Presentation was A+ Frank s Organic Garden is worth a try.
Loved it!!
My family and I go here all the time, both for sit down dinners but also for the marketplace. As my family is vegan, what we love the most is all the vegan options, which is very hard to find at other restaurants. We also love love love the beet juice from the marketplace. Highly recommend. We buy at least one bottle a week. Great place with very healthy and tasty options!!
Always amazing product, and really friendly helpful staff, Apple Cinnamon sausages, fantastic !
Excellent selection of food at reasonable prices. Dishes are organic. Friendly staff. Try the apple strudel!
If I could give this food a zero, I would! I can honestly say that this is the worst takeout I have ever had in my 60 years on this planet. Bought 4 entrees for take out. Cost over $100.00. Portions were minuscule, not even enough to feed a small child. On top of that the vegetables tasted like they had been in a freezer for 2 years and the food was lukewarm and bland. The overall impression was that of a low quality frozen dinner from the Walmart food section. What a disappointment! Never again. Any other take out food in Aurora would be better than this! Dont waste your money.
Nice ambience. Wait staff were too attentive and frequently interrupted our conversation. We felt rushed throughout the meal. Roast beef in jus was no better than the sliced roast beef you get in a sandwich at a pub but twice the price and no bun to go with it. The sides were nice.
Great food and atmosphere! Service was also outstanding!
I had two delicious meals in one day
Bottom line: excellent restaurant, with good food and attentive (but not overbearing) service. Not inexpensive, but very good value at a fair price. The menu is not huge, but offers plenty of choice, and everything is organic and fresh. Food was prepared exactly to our liking, with very good presentation, excellent flavour, and good portion sizes. Good drink menu. Staff was very attentive, helpful and efficient, without the constant intrusions that can become irritating during a meal. Obviously well trained and supervised, and seemed happy as they went about their duties. The modern restaurant (and attached grocery store) is well outfitted and spacious, clean and welcoming. We had lunch on the patio in the summer. Located in the adjacent parking lot, it is never-the-less a very pleasant experience, with an artificial hedge and very substantial and beautiful roof structure providing good visual and audible isolation from the vehicular traffic. I dont usually like parking lot patios, but this was certainly an exception. To top off our dining experience, we shopped in the small but specialised grocery store, and subsequently fully enjoyed our purchases. Overall one of the most enjoyable dining experiences available in Aurora.
Service was amazing,m and staff is very friendly and helpful. The food is really fresh and well-priced (definitely try their cakes). Would definitely recommend, and will be coming back soon :)
Excellent food, excellent service and nice ambience.
Great food Great service incredible value
Good Service and Good Food.
Franks Organic Garden has some top notch menu items. I try something new every time I order from here and so far, I have not been disappointed. The pizzas are top notch and the gnocchi is definitely a winner in my books. Expect to pay a little more than other restaurants for a higher quality meal. I havent explored the market and all of its offerings, but its on my To Do list.
Nice organic burger and separate condiments. Substitute for mashed potatoes was a tasty treat.
Delicious food, great atmosphere and staff was great!
Outstanding restaurant in an unlikely part of GTA. The wait staff was personable and attentive. The menu, though not extremely lengthy, offered a nice mixture of interesting dishes. All the items we ordered were well made, well presented and tasted great. The spinach and ricotta ravioli dish could easily be classified as a signature dish. The chicken schnitzel was pounded extra thin, delicately breaded and served with a light lemon sauce and celery root puree. Unbelievable combination of flavours. The salads were unique and memorable. The beet salad was served with this amazing dressing, you could literally drink it. Will return.
Amazing dining experience at Franks organic garden !! When you first walk in , there is an amazing market where you could shop for fresh organic items. Love the ambiance at the restaurant. Soft lighting and clean decor!! We were lucky to have a room for our table of 7. More cozy. Food was amazing !! Worth the money you spent, Our server, Aaron, was amazing!! Thank you!! Highly recommended!!
Simpy amazing. Best restaurant in town. Sam is fantastic.
Every employee I have dealt with since they opened, has impressed me. Friendly, helpful, accommodating vibe, and the food is impressive as well.
First time dining at Franks, my server was Chanelle & she made the whole experience amazing!! I had the vegan pizza and a mill st organic cider. She was very attentive & her pouring was flawless! Also props to the kitchen for having my food out in less than 10 minutes after ordering. Ten out of five stars. Will definitely be back again!
Really top notch organic dishes they serve, worth every single dollar you spend. ..... Just the portion is a bit small.
I travelled in from Toronto today and enjoyed the most scrumptious lunch at Frank s Organic Garden. I ordered the Beet Carpaccio with Arugula salad, vegan pizza and Chicken Schnitzel with celery root puree simply delicious!!! I also had green tea and a tasty apple strudel dessert. The food was not only delicious, but the usual bloating suffered after meals did not occur. Check out this place!!! Highly recommended. Looking forward to returning
Omg!!! We were there on November 23 and had the most unbelievable service and the food was outstanding! Presentation of every dish is like a work of art!! I couldn t except anything more and although we don t live very close would definitely go back very soon for an encore!! BRAVO FRANK!! Well done
The apple strudel reminded me of one my mother made 30 years ago. Brought a tear to my eye
