2900 Steeles Ave E, Markham, ON L3T 0E5, Canada
Very nice friendly restaurant. The food is very delicious, large portions. The service is very nice and friendly.
So my wife and I have been hearing about the food in Canada and while we're both stuck to what we know I decided to take a chance and order a Canadian staple, Poutine. I gotta say it takes alot like Disco fries. If you're from Jersey then you know what I mean. We also got the Buffalo wings and the kids got hot dogs, fries and chicken fingers. Our hostess/server Francine was very friendly and down to earth. We asked about places my wife and I thought of checking out with good schools. She shared great advice and our kids mentioned that she was cool too. My only knock was the diner itself seemed small to other diners I've been too but I liked the quietness too. Next time Imma try another authentic Canadian dish.
I had lunch there on Saturday (awkars and lout server was excellent. They have an extensive menu that can accommodate any palate. I had the Flashback combo, which was basically a loaded breakfast with 2 giant fluffy buttermilk pancakes, bacon, pea meal bacon, 2 sausages, and home fries. I personally really liked food. If you want classic comfort food and in 0a relaxed and casual dining experience, the Wimpy's Diner is the place to go, too!
Had to try the dinner for the first time. Food is always good. Service lady didn't look like she wanted to be there. Payment cash only did not trill me. To top it off as we sat down. The customer was leaving and complaining about the payment method. He said that during the last 6 months, he showed up. POS is never working. So you either come in cash in hands or leave a restaurant to obtain cash from the banking machine. Nostalgia for chain remains, but services need overhaul.
Great little retro diner, gives the feel that your looking for. The waitress was really nice, she was friendly and accommodating. The food was delicious and I had no problems here other than the debit and credit system being down, make sure to bring cash!
The burger really does look like the picture. I got the hot turkey and gravy and it was a hit. The burger and fries are great too. Too bad the milkshakes weren't available at that time.
Basic local little diner, was ok breakfast bit still a little high price for what you get, but that seems to be the morn nowadays. 35 bucks for 2 plates of basic eggs and bacon. At least the potatoes where actual potatoes and not frozen hashbites..
This location is consistent with friendly service and good portion amounts for all day breakfast. Prices have gone up as most restaurants have adjusted to inflation and cost of ingredients. Please ensure you bring cash to this location.
Older server was rude.
Was good, I go back for sure
Order pancakes online at your own risk. Have tried ordering from here a few times and have gotten inconsistent results. Sometimes they send butter, sometimes they dont. Sometimes they send syrup, sometimes they dont. Sometimes you get neither, making the pancakes inedible and youve wasted your money. I think Im done gambling here.
Very friendly and good food.
The nostalgia is definitely on point as is with Wimpys Diners. We walked in, cash only which we agreed to. One patron mentioned to the manager that everytime hes been here, debit POS has always been down which is usually the first sign of restaurants that end up failing. The service was terrible, can hear the manager/cook complain in the kitchen. I usually love these diners but I will forever avoid this location moving forward. The food was on point however.
We went here on May 25th 2024 at around 3pm. First of all, the waiter came up to us about 5 times within a 5 minute period to take our order. We felt that we were being rushed out. Then when my nephew ordered his food, the waiter told us No, that is too much for you and made him order a smaller meal. If he didn t finish it, we would have brought it home and had the rest of it for dinner. The waiter had no right to dictate to us what we order.
Great diner and waitress. Old skool vibes and fairly priced.
Coffee is cold
Food tasted pretty good, staff was friendly.
Good service
Wimpys is not the same as it used to be 5+yrs ago. This location in particular seems understaffed. They dont serve no more corned beef hash, however in any case the food was okay. Nothing to rave about since its diner food.
Can the waitress take her adhd meds. Horrible. Give people a chance to think. Like this restaurant is busy. Slow. Avoid go somewhere where u can enjoy and not be rushed.
The food was delicious and the employees were friendly and quick. I would recommend this location. The cost of the meal was very affordable, especially for 3 people.
Cool place, I love the theme going on, and the staff are friends with almost everyone and showing a lot of happiness! ( they just didnt serve you fast enough, or they dont get orders right ). The cooks, though, they messed up every dish we got, and it was cold when served, not to mention took forever!
Portions are great and place is friendly and cosy. Parking: Besides Food Basics grocer in plaza on Steeles East of Don Mills Rd. Food : 5/5 |
Devious food Friendly server Recommended dishes
Exactly what I needed for the grandkids. Easy fast food and great service. Milkshakes were a hit.
Definitely captures the traditional Wimpys feel! Prices are still fair in comparison to todays food market, especially for the burger. Waitresses are very friendly, and the franchise owner really steps up to keep this place successful. He has been a friendly man in my life for years, and its so easy to bring my business back to a man who tries as hard as he does for his location. His hard work pays off, and I recommend this location to anyone looking for good food and a friendly atmosphere!
I went three times with my dear friend, I had a modified breakfast of bread and butter, homes fries and one day pemale bacon. The food and customer service was incredible
Very tasty roast beef special
I love this Wimpys and I come here all the time. The stuff is amazing and its very homey ! The food is good and the place is clean ! Food : 5/5
Good food great service
We found a hair embedded in my nieces steak and when we brought it to the server s attention she stated it was my nieces hair and that all the cooks had dark hair. She was a little snippy about it and rather than apologizing she basically accused my niece of lying. She did offer to remake the steak after a few minutes. Server was friendly enough but did not appreciate the accusation of the hair being ours. I assume people use the hair in my food bit but my niece would not lie about it and I saw her pull it out of her steak. Also, be prepared to have cash as all of their machines were down which is really just an inconvenience
I dont know where to start! From the worst service in the world or the greasiest bacon of all time? This place is a disaster! Especially the service! Went there for a brunch, one of us asked for more coffee and waiter said that he needs to finish his coffee first for a refill. She joined our video call and at last asked us to raise our feet to sweep under the table! The food was below average and the place was as stinky as a skunk! Yuk!
Diner food in a local mall cant really go wrong
Delicious every time. Great service!
Good place to eat. Spinach and cheese omlate was really good.
A Local Restaurant in my neighbourhood!!
Did not eat here. Only had a coke
I love pancakes in the morning so if you are craving for waffles, pancakes, toasts, sausage, omelets, bacon and eggs...one of the many choices that you can count on when feeling hungry for breakky is Wimpys! Its one of the best top 10 breakfast diner/resto in town that suits your pocket.
Friendly staff
The service was amazing and the food was good fit the price point. They had a good selection for kids ad well
I dont normally go to a Wimpys Dinner but our group of 4 out voted me to go. But wow I am glade they did! The food was hot and very tasty, drink was hot. Everyone in our group enjoyed their lunch there. Staff was friendly and helpful. You get a lot of food for the money.
The burger was good. Meat all tasty and natural. 28$ for a burger and fries. On the expensive side. Okay for one time. I do not see the value in the meal.
Bad packaging for hot food, package is sticking to the food making it unhealthy
Great location good service good food
Came here for Saturday lunch, had the Beef Dip even though it was tasty it was bone dry and extremely well done. Had to soak each bite with the aux jus dipping sauce just to moisten the beef a bit. Also was told by the waitress the debit & credit machine was not working, cash only. Much to my dismay neither was the register so NO RECEIPT for your purchase which the waitress failed to mention. Lesson learned....never ever eat at an establishment that will ask for cash with no receipt. Needless to say the Beef Dip is also permanently taken off my list of items to eat there.
Always freshly cooked and tasty food with awesome service
Whoo! So happy its still here! Best diner experience Best service
Pretty good first impression for first visit. Saw a lot of negative reviews and took a gamble. Was served by a woman that was infamously mentioned in the bad reviews and she was such an energetic and jolly person. Always made we were good, even gave us a great deal when we were out of the special s time frame. Cozy spot, would dine again.
I just love wimpys. Love the food. Love the environment and also lovely staff in specific to this location.
Good meal. Good Waitress Had to pay cash the day I stopped by to eat. Disappointing to not be able to get a receipt as I was on business trip and I cant claim the expense. Wimpys needs to work on that! Large portions only 1 of the 3 of us were able to eat the whole breakfasts.
Always great food
Best club sandwich Ive ever ate. I never miss the chance to stop here to get one or their awesome steaks and burgers even though its two hours away from my house!!!
We had a great waitress who was so efficient and courteous. The food was excellent! Don Mills and Steeles location is the best.
Great food
Its always a treat at Wimpys! The food is fresh. The service is excellent! I usually order the cornbeef hash and scrambled eggs. This time I ordered the fried chicken and waffles.
Good
Good service and good food very clean
Not only the food is great but the staff is the friendliest ever.
Local diner in my neighbourhood. I want to support them.
Good restaurant. Has been reliable for many years!
Always great food and huge portions
Great friendly staff
Staff are great. Very personable and pleasant and helpful. Food is good!
Nice portions of food, friendly staff, not busy in nostalgia settings decors, lots parking in plaza, would love hotter cafe
Great food, great staff. Prices are decent too.
Liked it. Was happy with both food & service.
Just dont get the appeal though my friends rave about the place. Prices are high. This specific location has booths that are deliberately designed LOW and SHORT so there is no legroom. When I stuck my legs outside the booth, the server snapped at me. Two fairly tasteless omelettes, coffee, and side of bacon, with tip $40. Toast was extra, we were warned. Service was slow although the place was 3/4 empty. And the Greek side salad was 80% iceberg lettuce, a salad no Greek would ever recognize.
I wish I could give these folk more than 5 stars. Went in for three milkshakes for the kids and wife, and these guys took time and great care to make wonderful shakes. Plus they are always kind and polite - I noticed how they interacted with other customers too, not just us. I would buy from there just for the service - the delicious food is a bonus.
Sep 2020 (COVID19): Open for dine in and take out. Was pretty empty compared to before. Good to see the generous portion sizes and good service havent changed. Nutella milkshake is good too. 2016: Greasy diner food for when you want some greasy diner food. The wait staff are welcoming and polite. The vintage style decor, mini jukeboxes at each table, and American memorabilia on the walls contribute to the small town diner atmosphere.
Best bacon burgers .. and onion rings!! Luv Wimpys burgers. Good service. Contact tracing, sanitizing, social distancing in effect. Thanks Wimpys..
Taste was so delicious
Its a subpar restaurant. Not the worst but not even average either. The burger was just okay but the fries were terrible.
Its a good spot for lunch, simple, tasty and ample. I mostly get the club sandwich, which they make especially well. Service is always friendly.
Nice little spot, clean, cute blonde waitress very pleasant. Only got a poutine, this what I got for 10$. A small basically, was good at least!
Good preparation...great taste
Very clean location , staff Professional ,Service prompt
Excellent food and service reasonable $
I went there for breakfast on a Saturday 10am. Food was fine. Staff was friendly.
Good food and price are reasonable
Classic dinner. All day breakfast is solid. Place is getting older.
Amazing service. Coming here for a long time. Rachel provides amazing service. Located in a small mall.
Food was great
Family friendly. Great turkey options for for breakfast.
We come here regularly. Food & service are always good. The owners and cooks are nice and the wait staff is amazing. Especially Patricia! The burgers are signature and are fantastic, the fish and chips are good too. But the best is the all day breakfast options! This is not the place for a healthy meal, it s a classic diner!
This place is great. Good prices. Decent portions. Friendly competent staff.
Ok for an old time diner.
great bang for buck with friendly staff
Excellent
Always friendly staff, always great food.
Good place
Friendly and great food. Unlike the other whimpy this one is consistent with their food quality.
Their burgers are amazing and so are their poutines
Best breakfast around with friendly staff and conscientious kitchen.
Good place when you dont want to think about calories and just want to have something thats junk but satisfying.
Ive been to many wimpys and liked their food very much. This location needs to improve on their cleanliness. Someone from kitchen was swearing at the lady staff. Not a great a experience......
I m almost tried all Wimpy s all around this region.. This location is the best and not crazy busy The employees specially (patrica)are so kind and care about customers
Service is good
Best Breakfast I had in a long time. Good quality, clean, great attitude from behind the counter.
The meat was very burnt and Mrs. The attendant is very rude and unfriendly
Delicious food, kid friendly environment, very friendly waitresses
Good food,very friendly service
Always good food.
Staff was extremely helpful and courteous, food was prepared in a neat and timely manner. BURGER IS OUT OF THIS WORLD GOOOOD! Location is quite clean and the employees are quite welcoming. Location is easy to find and ample parking.
Our kids enjoyed it, food was good and our server was great. I would go back again. Just wish the juke box/music worked...
love the service and the food is spectacular
Wholesome hearty meals. Friendly staff.
A blast from the past with a modern twist. Uniquely positioned and a visually appealing dining area. The restuarant has plenty of seating, lots of photo opportunities and a creative menu to explore. In the vincinty of Don Mills road & Steeles avenue. Free parking and access to ttc bus route #53. Family friendly and a fun place to visit.
Nice waitresses and the food quality was good. I would come again
Depends on what you order
Delicious diner food
The staff are great, food is even better and the cooks are the best! Great food for a great price! Been coming here for 8 years and have never had an issue with food or service!
Good desert, a surprise to me.
Clean & busy place, but SUPER rude waitress!!! Id never come back.
Great family restaurant. Good food. Friendly servers.
Take long time to get simple food
Decent food, good prices, lovely staff. Very standard diner fair, with diner quality.
Clean & fun place ( only if the owners want to have the tv ON ) or the place gets pretty dull & boring. The meals are pretty basic & somewhat pricey. No extra food given nowadays. Everything is pricey out eating?!!
Friendly service. Food is okay.
The hashbrowns were cold. So they brought me hot ones right away
The young lady serving me was sweet like honey. The food was good, not burned! I heard the owners speak Farsi, I love Iranian people.
Comfort food with family service
Big portions. Great service
Friendly waitress
Breakfast food is too greasy and not great value for the price. Go to Coras.
great burgers. larger than most whimpys dinners so at least youre not jammed packed into here.
Food services is great
The food is not cooked fresh! I ordered bacon and it was dry, hard and clearly at least a day old. I asked for new bacon and they brought me more of the same, claiming it was fresh. When I asked, the server said maybe it was a different kind of bacon! Disappointing experience.
Big portions, reasonable prices and good service. Recommended
Friendly staff, good burgers
Prices on the menu and prices on the bill are different. On the picture you see a burger with fries and it cost $9.99 but then they charge almost $4 extra for fries. On the picture you see pancakes with bananas and Nutella but then they charge you extra for bananas. This place is a joke. Cashier is a sneaky woman who also charged us for juice more than it is on the menu. She charged for large cups while brought the small ones. And then stood around and was looking from the corner of her eye to see our reaction when we were reading the bill. We did not say anything to her because the difference she added there, was a part of her tip later on. People who worked at the kitchen also were looking all the time like they knew what is going on. Even through food was ok, we are not going to come back to this place just because of the sneakiness they pull off there. FYI 1 star you get, is for food only.
Great food. Clean and lot of parking. Will definitely go again
I went in to this Wimpys and ordered a hamburger, fries, and drink. We waited a very long time to be served. I would have walked out if I was alone. The server brought the burger and drink and told me the fries would be a few minutes. I finished the burger and still no fries. I waited a few more minutes and got up to see the server. I was ready to leave. She told me the fries were ready now so i asked for them to be take out. We paid and left. As i got down the street, i opened the bag and found a half order of fries. It was so shocking to see what they called an order of fries. Maybe they should get some smaller containers. The burger was good but the rest was a disgrace to Wimpys name.
Avoid this place, food and service isnt worth it.
Great waitress. Awesome food. Friendly atmosphere.
Always great place to have good bite
The food was nice. The service was great. One of the best breakfast places in that area.
Horrible
Great table service with good taste!!!
A good place to have lunch or dinner. The food portions are nominal and the staff are very friendly! My only complaint is that the price is a bit expensive. Great diner. Will visit again.
I have been going since it opened its a good place with good prices.
Horrible in one word. We sat with no offer of beverages or even cutlery. No refill offer once on anything. The waitress never did her job other than seating us.
Good food but needs a new refresh to be more current.
I do not recommend eating here. The waitress changed the garbage, asked us what we wanted to drink, and got the ice with her hands without washing them and without gloves. We then got our food and there was a very long black hair in it. We left without eating. Normally love wimpys but this one is terrible.
Good cheap breakfast. Came here to spend some time thinking about next steps for my business. Sat in a corner for 2 hrs. Waiter was a doll.
The experience here was very good for me. The waitress welcomed me and my family and takes our order very specifically and brings our order exactly to our request. The place is well kept and the posters and the 50s atmosphere is awesome. But the most important part is the food. Never thought the poutine could be this excellent. Their steak and their turkey dishes are just fabulous. I love Whimpys, they never disappoint on quality and great experience.
We like this restaurant very much, especially the big hamburger. The only request would be to reduce the amount of salt in the soup. If we prefer more salt, we can always add it after we taste it!
Great staff, generic big burgers.
Fantastic service delicious choices for meals
The close early, so beware.
Everyone is very nice,Washroom is down the hall NO stairs The food is ok!
Good food, good service, poor location
It used to be better. At some point, Wimpys began downsizing their burgers and meals and it just isnt as good anymore. The service is good but the food quality has declined but if you are in this area and are craving diner food -- this is a decent place to get it.
Terrible burgers. Small Phillies. Very pricy for thr junk you get.
Unreapicable. The setting was too hot on a summers day. The waitress was nice and friendly. There Famious burgers are great. Unfotnatly This location is poorly managed. Feels like this place is being cheap. Cutting corners. The I dont think I will be coming back. I dont think staying in is a good idea. The air was hot and smelly. When escaping the hot summer days of toronto this location provided poor quality are circulation.
I go to this place often when I am in Toronto. Their breakfast menu is great for families going out for a Sunday morning breakfast. I also love their burgers, big, juicy, freshly made with lots and lots of toppings. The prices are very reasonable. You have the option to change some of the combo/set sides for a salad and there are free coffee refills. The staff are very welcoming. I like the 50s-style decor and menu options. 4/5 because I wish they had free tea-refills and I wish they were open a little till a little bit later at night. Yummy, well kept restaurant over all!
