Cafe Landwer in North York

Its a good place to go and eat something light and delicious, to meet some people, the way to order something to eat and the service are excellent

Parking: Nice spot, was quiet when we went. Plenty of food choices though not all dishes listed on menu but available Food

The staff are very polite and caring. Also there is a charger

We went for brunch and found varied, abundant and good tasting options. The service is good, attentive and pleasant.

I like the place, most of the food Ive tried as well. (Just didnt like that much the landwer speciall breakfast, nothing special)

I had a chicken shawarma sandwich.... They should go to a shawarma place to see what a shawarma is. For the price they charged.. I feel I got ripped off. We also had the halloumi shakshuka plate. Completely unpalatable. Complete waste of money. HOW CAN YOU CHARGE TOP DOLLAR FOR GARBAGE FOOD?!!!! I will not come back and I would definitely not recommend this restaurant.

Family friendly

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Landwer Restaurant on Avenue Road, and the experience was unforgettable, thanks to the outstanding service from Suhyl and Mahrad. From the moment I walked in, their warm smiles and welcoming attitudes set the tone for the evening. They were incredibly attentive and made sure every detail was perfect, making me feel genuinely valued as a guest. It s rare to find service that s both personal and impeccable, but Suhyl and Mahrad have truly mastered it. Their dedication and passion shine in every interaction. To anyone visiting Landwer Restaurant, I highly recommend experiencing their exceptional hospitality. Thank you, Suhyl and Mahrad, for making my visit so memorable!

Good food, a bit pricey. WiFi Password is landwer1912 Food

Excellent coffee and delicious chocolate fudge cake.

ALL GREAT ...

My family and I had such a great time at Cafe Landwer on Avenue Road. The food was delicious. A big thank you to our attentive server, Mahrad, who ensured we were happy with the service. All servers should be wonderful like Mahrad. Thank you!

Mahrad was a friendly and incredible server that took care of us and our needs with exceptional care and detail. He made my night for my birthday celebration with my family. Aside from the delicious meals which we all thoroughly enjoyed!!!! Dietary restrictions: Very accommodating for gluten-free with a good selection of options.

Soheil , the manager is excellent and doing a great job! He s super attentive and runs this restaurant very well! Thank you Soheil for your excellent customer service :)

This place is absolutely amazing! I had the Shakshuka, and it was one of the best meals I ve ever had flavorful and perfectly cooked. For dessert, I tried the Oreo Rozalach, which was heavenly with its crunchy outside and warm, delicious filling. Their coffee is also outstanding so rich and flavorful! The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, making it a perfect spot to relax and enjoy great food. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for an unforgettable experience!

Been here a few times, pretty bland food. The service is decent and the restaurant is clean. But everything we have tried is dull and flavorless. Shawarma portion is pretty small.

service was great & the food was delicious

Great food. The atmosphere is comfortable but a bit loud.

Exceeded all expectations. Try the Berlin 1919 tea

As good as always ! Regular client at all locations. Thank you

Went here for brunch with some friends! Service was amazing and food was good! It was my first time at this location! Will definitely come back.

Had a terrific experience today for lunch. the egg Benedict croissant was cooked perfectly. Our server Manhar (I hope I am spelling his name correctly} was so pleasant. He greeted us immediately at the door and we asked for him to be our server. He was professional, courteous and generally a happy person!!! he made our experience, exceptional. We will be back!

One of my favourite restaurants in Toronto Whatever I try here is tasty, especially breakfasts and pastries Food

Cafe Landwer offers a cozy atmosphere and delicious dishes. Mahrad provided outstanding service attentive, friendly, and gave great recommendations. The coffee was perfect, and the whole experience was enjoyable. Highly recommend!

This location is perfect Clean and organized And Also the gentleman *Mahrad* is the most polite and helpful waiter ever He always offers the best foods with a nice smile !

I took my 7 year old son here for brunch today and he asked me to leave this review: It was great. It was the best brunch place I ever went to, and everything was excellent.

This is like my second home! Favorite thing is the halva latte Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly! Food : 5/5 |

Amazing service, friendly staff and great food always! My fav spot in town!

Have been to this place 2 times, the menu is very big but maybe should make it a bit smaller and work in the food quality, we had a schnitzel, no flavour, my daughter had a pasta, not expecting the best, for pasta should go to a Italian restaurant but really so overcooked and the flavour just not good, just our opinion. Then we had a a shawarma plate that was ok. Another time had a burger that was ok too. Service is a bit slow.

First time ever at Cafe Landwer on Avenue Rd. We were there for lunch and although it was very busy, they were able to get us seated within 10 minutes. The waitress was very nice and professional and the service in getting out food was pretty quick. I got the burger and it was excellent, very fresh and of high quality and the French fries were very good as well, as was the portion of the meal. I was stuffed after lunch, but in a good way. My sister had a wonderful chicken salad of very good quality and again, a very good size portion. I would definitively recommend this establishment.

Amazing coffee, Great food, perfect atmosphere and service. Love it.

Had a phenomenal experience at Cafe Landwer. The server, Gidyon was lovely!! excellent service and great customer service. He recommended the schnitzel and it was lovely.

Great experience. Compared to many brunch places, this has to be the best one Ive tried. 1- The avocado toast was fantastic, so flavourful. The Jerusalem style bagel was fresh and decent in size, it added a nice touch. 2- The berry bliss toast is the best french toast Ive ever had. The challah bread makes it crunchy and light, and the fruit with the crushed pistachio-nut blend on top balances the sweetness so its more savoury. They also give syrup on the side instead of already placed on top which I appreciated. 3- Drinks: the latte portions are very generous and so tasty. I also recommend trying their smoothies. The nutty vanilla was so good, very light and not too sweet. - Overall, service was great on top of all of this. The staff are very attentive, kind and CLEAN. There was a small crumb on my table and our server spotted it and wiped it off so fast! Prices are decent too, especially for the quality food and experience.

Food and drinks arrived quickly, the london fog wasn t too sweet which was good and the breakfast was also good.

Shirat , thanks a million to you we had a wonderful time tonight ! your welcoming and warm smile was the most memorabale take away tonight beside from the great service.

Great Mediterranean spot for brunch. Make sure you book ahead of time because it is very busy.

Today we came with my kids and my mom, it was such an amazing experience and very good food. Also Mahrad and the lady Manager were really nice highly recommended for families with children.

Im usually a huge fan of cafe landwer but this location was a disappointment. Service was the worst. Waiting time was outrageous even though there weren t a lot of customers and no one followed up with our table. It took forever to get our bill so we had to go to the front and pay.

I got a few items for take out. I was sincerely impressed, I placed the ordered before closing and I reached there after it had closed. The staff was busy closing but were very happy to help me. In a time where places close early without notice due to no business, this was a nice surprise. The food is decently priced. The Hummus and Babaganoush were nice. I was a little taken aback with tomato in the Labneh. Falafel were good.

I only visited this location of Landwer but several time. It s definitely a great location for a group of people to sit down. Very good option for breakfast and lunch Nutella Rozalach served with Turkish coffee. Both are awesome.

Good food, nice staff. Best coffee in town. Coffee tastes like coffee!. Prices a little bit high but it worths. Food

Been here a few times. Enjoyed the food and varieties it offer. Today, got the goat cheese and berries salad. Was good but realized missing the avocado and walnut. Very disappointed as it was not even busy. Will think again if I will visit this location again. Food

Amazing food and amazing service would definitely come back here and will recommend friends and family. Peaceful location really loved it.

I was here last week with my friends all of them loved the food and the service was great. Definetly a Go to place for an evening gathering with friends.

Good food, good prices and good service. Solid. I would recommend

Three of us dined here last Friday, the service (by Rachel) was above & beyond what we expected. The food was delicious, but our server, Rachel, made our evening fantastic. She s efficient, kind, good-humoured; just an absolute excellent part of this restaurant. She bent over backwards to keep us happy. We would definitely keep coming back there just to sit in her section ! 5 stars all around .and ask for Rachel !

Too expensive

Jamie was my server and she was an absolute joy to be around. She made my day and was so friendly and made us feel so taken care of. She made our experience here worth it. Give this adorable girl a raise!!!

Very nice! Totally recommend it

First visit. Terrific menu and excellent, casual atmosphere. Extensive variety of meal choices. Staff excellent. The manager, Ash, very attentive and welcoming. Food was excellent ( Cobb salad) . Will definitely return with friends and family. Food : 5/5

The cuisine was good. The staff, particularly Aida, provided outstanding service her assistance was not only friendly and helpful but also delivered with utmost professionalism.

Food was great and the service provided by kimia was amazing!!

Excellent neighborhood joint for hearty Mediterranean food.

Had a big, fat, delicious birthday dinner here and everything was excellent! Big thanks to our server, Ash, who was super friendly and helpful. Standouts were great falafel, schnitzel, hummous and amazing Nutella rugellah.

Friendly staff, nice food and service

Great Cafe, amazing breakfast

Excellent service. Sarina is a great person

We ate breakfast here. All foods are so satisfying.

Interesting take on mediterranean food. First time trying a Shakshuka and had the Halluomi. Things were a little too salty and acidic, but the Focaccia helped. Good selection of cold teas and the passion fruit syrup on the side was very pleasant and a nice touch. Location on Avenue had a nice casual family vibe.

Busy Saturday, excellent lunch and service.

I had an amazing experience at Landwer last night. My server bella or jenna (can t remember the name) with brownish red hair was very nice and attentive. The food was good and I would come again.

Loved my amazing server Bella !!!

Great food, great service. What can we ask more ? It is so great to have a resturant like this in our neighborhood

Delicious food in a pleasant atmosphere with great service from Bella, strongly recommended, thank you :) Vegetarian options: Many veggie options including my favourite, roasted eggplant in tahini, which is mildly smoky and delicious with warm focaccia Parking: Ample free parking on Brooke Avenue, or use Green P right behind restaurant

Just meh. Ordered avocado toast and came with a spread. We also ordered the berry salad with chicken. It came with sliced avocado but it did not have the chicken Gets busy and parking in this neighbourhood can be a challenge. Owner asked us in thier reply to email us. Why would we bother? Service was meh as was the response to our review.

Had a lovely dinner with friends. Nice variety of salads. Fresh ingredients and large portions. Friendly and helpful service.

Lots of potential, however, needs work. Management or owners seem to have forgotten about their investments.

Food are very delicious at this location, and the service is also good. Good place to have a family bench on Weekend.

Fantastic Schnitzel on lovely patio. Bella and rest of staff provided exceptional service and a welcoming atmosphere. Loved the Nutella Rozalach.

Very pleasant and attentive service. Bella was so kind and made wonderful recommendations for us to order. The serving staff brought extra cutlery and napkins-- all with a smile. Food was delicious and make sure to order the Nutella rozalach! Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian options

The service was a bit slow (had to wait 45 mins for our food). The food was great. Location was convenient. The staff were friendly.

Very nice restaurant with an extensive menu. Service was friendly and excellent.

Spectacular atmosphere and delicious food. I had a clean rose pasta and it was wonderful. You cant go wrong here.

Great location, excellent service and delicious food! Highly recommend the shakshuka!

i ordered two smoothies and they both were very bad but the food was good. i was happy that they refunded the first smoothie. Kid-friendliness: they have a kids menu and you can build a cat

Extremely expensive for a breakfast. Had 3 waiters. Food was fresh and tasty

Absolutely delicious food, wonderful service and management, and great atmosphere! Well definitely be back.

A wonderful place. Sadly now closed.

We had a fantastic experience at Café Landwer on Avenue Road for Fathersday. The food was delicious, and the ambiance was cozy. Special thanks to the manager and our server, Mehrad, who provided exceptional service. Highly recommend this place!

Schnitzel and shawarma both mediocre

10/10 Very friendly and kind staff, the manager Kimia was super kind, checked on us and made sure we are good. Will definitely visit again!

Always enjoy coming here, great service!! Loved the Nutella rozalach and hot chocolate paired together

I m used to Cafe Landwer always being packed for brunch and went around weekday dinner time and it was pretty calm then. Ordered the sinia shakshuka which was rich and came in a good sized portion. It fit better as a brunch item imo but was still delightful. Just wish the cheesecake had a slightly firmer texture to it as opposed to whipped cream consistency! Otherwise the place had a casual warm ambience and staff were lovely.

Amazing cafe to eat authentic food. Friendly staff.

I realy like this cafe with friendly waiters specialy Mahrad one of the best

Great food and wonderful service!

incredible service, super sweet staff and amazing amazing food!

Super duper yummy!

I absolutely love this location. It is now my favourite location. The manager JJ was amazing. The entire team was lovely and had excellent customer service. I ll be visiting again. Cheers!

I had a super long day and I was extremely tired And looking for a relaxing space Landwer on Avenue road was the right spot The team on landwer was super nice, friendly, and hospitable. I would definitely come back here to make a new memorable and momentous seconds for me and my friends. Never miss spring days on Landwer s patio.

Ive only ordered a few dishes but I have some go to so I thoroughly enjoy from this location. Staff has always been friendly to me and its a nice-looking restaurant although I do get most of my stuff take out. The plant-based shawarma is excellent among other things.

Another great location of Cafe Landwer to visit! They never fail to impress with their beautiful decor, delicious food, and exceptional service! My favourite dishes include the halloumi shakshuka and hummus and falafel plate. A staple restaurant that I will happily come back to time and time again!

We had a bridal shower dinner for 15 last night. The service was outstanding! They accommodated each and every one of our requests (table configuration etc) with kindness and patience. Our wait staff could teach classes on how to make customers feel welcome and cared for! Food was great too! Thank you for adding to our night!

Excellent service and mediocre food. I love this location and staff are beyond amazing. Thank you.

We visited in the morning. It was such a great experience . The ambiance was cozy and welcoming and the staff was very friendly and attentive. The food was absolutely delicious . I would definitely recommend this place to friends. Food : 5/5

Do not understand some of these ratings and comments. Wife and I ordered the salmon. It came with steam greens but the broccoli we was brownish and color. The piece of salmon was very small portion. The the taste of it was not very good loaded with paprika and and we could not get the taste out of our mouth all night. It also seemed to have a very oily texture in our mouth. Im not sure how they prepare it. Nothing else comes with it, such as bread or pita. The service alone was not very good.We saw the waitress 3 times once to take our order tge brought food and then bill. For what they charge, there are a lot better places in the city then this place.Maybe because its a chain they figure they can get away with it. Overpriced food, not great service and atmosphere is so so. Maybe okay for a breakfast or lunch or coffee but for dinner stay.Will not return

Was not good, there are much better options

Came for drinks and dinner, it was a nice environment and the food was good & came out fast!

Mahrad was one of the best helpful and Kind server! I enjoyed the time being there!

It was calm, we got great service from Mahrad,

The drinks and pastries were delicious. Mahrad our waiter was more than helpful and patiently explained the menu. Will be back.

Cindy and Manthan were great.

We come back to this place often. the food is really good. The staff are friendly especially Mahrad is very helpful.

Affogato tasted perfect. Our server , Mahrad, was so friendly and helpful. Loved the place and definitely recommend it!

Mahrad was a great guy here! We enjoyed his serving, he is so respectful and kind and I suggest all to trust his recommendations!

Thank you Karen for the great service today. We always love coming!

not everything from the menue is available!

Waiters are not always polite and not very friendly. If you get a good waiter then the service is good, but it is rare.

Good atmosphere.

This place has some of the best breakfast in the city! The service is great, and the food is good!

While it was overall a good experience, and the food was tasty, the customer service needs some improvement. It took almost 5 minutes to get a menu, despite it being very slow. I had to ask for a menu to finally get one. No one ever checked up on me during my meal either. After ordering food, I didnt interact with my server again until I flagged her down to ask for the bill. Kid-friendliness: I had my infant with me, in a bucket carseat. I was not given a table that accommodated him well. The waiter and other patrons had to step around him. I had to move him out of the way several times for his safety

Poor service - never received coffee or water refills, the server never checked in to see how our food was or if we needed anything, we finished our plates and waited 15-20 mins and then had to request our bill three times and wait another 20+ mins. Our food came out cold - my side of hollandaise had been sitting for so long it had developed a film on top. We ordered the eggs benedict florentine and everything was kind of bland and lack lustre, which was too bad because the crushed potatoes had a lot of potential. The food wasnt bad per se, it was just wasnt good enough to bring me back.

The food was amazing and the service was incredible Highly recommended!!!! Food

Terrific restaurant!

Awesome cafe with good food too..loved the ambience too..Must visit

The garlic mashed potatoes were amazing and thanks to our server (Manthan) for an amazing service.

Such a lovely atmosphere!

Good service and great staff with Mr Mahrad

Great service Maha s was a polite and nice guy

Had a quick lunch meeting. Menu great. Great service. Felt a little rushed as I suppose they want to turn tables quickly. Would I go back, for sure. Like to try more on the menu.

I really like Cafe Landwers decor, and their service is always good, but I did not feel the food was worth the price. It wasnt bad, it just wasnt great. I dont think I would go again for the food.

In my honest experience, Ive always enjoyed their food. One of my go-to places for lunch meetings! Sometimes the service is subpar depending on the staff. I can vouch that most of the servers here are fantastic! Everyone has their highs and lows. Ill still keep visiting, hoping I never have a forgettable visit like last time. Food is always spot on though, cannot go wrong with that!

solid would come again

Perfect service, our server Aida was not only fast at receiving and giving our order, she was the sweetest server ive ever seen. Definitely coming back for the flawless serving of this server!

horrible hot chocolate taste like warm milk and for $7 you kidding me

Lavanya is the most gracious and amazing host. She always makes our experience extra special!!

The matcha latte comes highly recommended. The friendly staff and retro atmosphere are great. However, parking can be a bit difficult.

Nice place, calm, great food and Mahrad made our experience even much better. Thank you all! Food : 5/5

This location is the best among all their restaurants in the city. We feel like home every single time! CL rocks!

Nice looking place. If you like Israeli food, maybe it s for you. Turns out I don t.

Great place for hanging out with friends

great foods great service

My fav place, Everything is so delusions in here! Loved the music selection!

Service was excellent

Fantastic store, food was delicious. Service was fantastic too

The food is immaculate, service is quick, good vibes.

Actually amazing! The food, atmosphere, and service is absolutely wonderful and so welcoming. I always come back!

A very good Cafe with best service Kid-friendliness: Atmosphere is amazing Food : 5/5 |

Great food! Awesome service especially Mahrad.

Enjoying the Cafe Landwer!! I never had a good Caesar in my life but they have such a good Caesar here! Thanks for the recommendation Maharad! Food

We tried desserts (knaffe) and drinks and everything was really good! The staffs were also very nice (especially Mahrad). Will definitely come back for more food later!

We had delicious food and a great time! Our server Ash was very friendly and great with the kids! Will definitely come back to this location to try more delicious food! Food

Lovely place for brunch and lunch with a huge menu with variety of foods and drinks. Visited around 11:30and had to wait a bit for a table. As we were seated we were greeted by a lovely girl and she took our drinks order. It was our first time visiting and our waiter explained everything and recommended some dishes for us. The food was really good, you could tell it was fresh and great quality. The waitress took good care and was very friendly and polite her name was kim. Thank you for a good experience cafe landwer.

Great service. The server Manthan was amazing and very friendly!!

Excellent

Service is very good and friendly. Food is very good. Easy, casual busy atmosphere. Great for friends, families.

We came in on Valentines Day and it wasn t particularly busy. The hostess was very friendly. The waiter forgot little things, but made up for it. The food was good, but the sangria was delicious! The hostess brought around little bites filled with Nutella as a treat, very tasty!

Excellent retro diner with over the top food quality and variety.

So glad we planned to visit with our kids . Really amazing service and food . Everyone working there is so polite and nice. Portion size was good. Morning well spent

Great little vintage spot.

The cheesecake was great and our server Christine made sure we were taken care of and had a good time Thank you Christine!

Best Cafe in Town, hands down! So unique, so delicious, so worth it!!

Make reservations when going for the long weekend. Really great food and had the halloumi sticks. Waitress was mediocre; she couldve smiled more and been more attentive with service (i.e. asking if we wanted more drinks or a coffee refill, asking if we wanted anything more, etc. before we asked for the bill) We went on Family Day around 12pm. Otherwise, food is worth the travel. I would return for brunch again. Vegetarian options: Great options available!
