The Swedish meatballs were absolutely delicious, along with the mashed potatoes. Everything was perfectly balanced. My sister and my brother-in-law thoroughly enjoyed their haddock. The poutine was great as well. The portions are very filling and kept us full all day! We found the desserts to be overly sweet, but the daim cake was the best. Quick service, large dining area and great food means that we will be back again!

Literally my go-to meal at IKEA when I want to treat myself and "eat out". With the IKEA family card, hot coffee/tea is free, so this entire meal was under $17. I'm always craving IKEA food, and it's always so delicious and affordable

Wife and I went to IKEA to buy a new closet storage system and planned to go to the restaurant for lunch. Even though I’ve been to IKEA many times in the past, I think this may have been only my first time at the restaurant. I was pleasantly surprised by how much selection they had on their menu and the prices were really good with generous portions. I got the fish & chips, wife got the vegetarian meatballs and mushroom soup. We shared a large poutine. If we lived closer, I think I’d come here for the food all the time 😅

Two meatball dinners and a side fry for 22.58 (tax incl) how can you go wrong. I've always been dissuaded by the lengthy queue but that weekend I said let's finally give the IKEA restaurant a try. First off the line moves very quickly. Secondly the food is actually very good. The meatballs with mashed potatoes and green peas are very satisfying. Their fries are excellent; better than the McD's, Wendy's, etc. Well staffed for efficient operations. Most definitely will return.

Decent food at a decent price point if you have the IKEA Family membership. Lines can be long but it's worth the wait! My favorite was the plant balls, I found it had more flavour than the Swedish meatballs surprisingly. The Ligonberry jam is a nice alternative to strawberry jam. The portions are pretty decent we couldn't even finish out meals.

★★★★★
July 21, 2024

Super affordable and relatively healthy meal depending on what you pick. The plant balls are so yummy and with a side of veggies you get a nice balanced meal for under $10! There are also veggie dogs ($1) and vegan strawberry ice cream (only $2!) downstairs. The strawberry ice cream was fabulous. Overall so happy to see vegan options available at IKEA and so affordable.

★★★★

The price is reasonable. Mostly self service. Sometimes there could be a lot of people. When it’s not crowded, it’s a pretty good place for breakfast, lunch or dinner. The food is good. Loved the salmon (could be a bit salty sometimes), and the meatballs.

The only question that pops into my mind every time I try the IKEA restaurant is whether it is 100 percent Swedish in terms of its menu offerings. If the answer is yes, then I feel sorry for the Swedish people.

I regularly visit and shop at the Vaughan branch. I visited this branch last year, and this was my second visit here. The variety and availability of small kitchen items were better than at the Vaughan branch, but the organization and overall discipline were considerably worse. It was also too crowded. I ll stick to my usual branch.

Terrible experience attempting to return my mattress. Very disappointed. The manager was very rude, the manager had the discretion to return our money to us but outright refused it. IKEA you ve lost a long time customer.

November 21, 2024

They closed the line at 7:54 p.m. and didn t allow a woman to purchase dinner. When she resisted and refused to leave, security forcefully detained her. They were supposed to admit people until 8 p.m., and their treatment of a lone woman simply trying to get a meal was unacceptable.

You must understand that the Ikea restaurant is a unique experience unlike your typical meal out. It is a cafeteria style setting, with fabulous food. Personally, I LOVE being able to pop in for lunch during the work week. The food is always what I expected. And sometimes there are surprises. Bonus points for being able to walk through afterwards and pick up something necessary or even just fun!! Vegetarian options: I havent tried, but they are there! Kid-friendliness: Absolutely!! Highchairs provided. Fun food. Kid sized servings. And colourful noises!!!! Wheelchair accessibility: Elevators and wide aisles!! Accessible Parking too

used to love this place, but came here today and got served everything in paper bowls, paper cutlery - what happened to the reusable utensils and bowls they had? How do you eat soup with a paper spoon? Portions were smaller too, and quality went down. Sad to see ikea lower their standards like everyone else.

Delicious food for amazing price. The only thing is it can be a bit complicated to navigate the entrance but otherwise good selection of dishes, of course we all got the meatballs which never disappoint. I also highly recommend their veggie medallion. The drinks are free-refill so definitely worth it. Just before the checkout you can also get their swedish meatballs frozen in bulk. After the checkout theres another snack area where they sell poutine, hotdog and ice cream. Their strawberry ice-cream is more fruity rather than a creamy strawberry ice cream. Their poutine was really good too.

October 21, 2024

The lady at Line 1 serving meatballs was very impolite. I wasnt sure about the difference between plain meatballs and a set, and she just kept repeating the question loudly 8 plains or 8 sets? , apparently this is not an appropriate response to customers who struggle. Please fire her.

The food is above average. I walked into the restaurant for lunch not having breakfast, so I was quite hungry. Enjoyed the salmon fillet with vegetables and rice. The restaurant was slightly crowded and finding a table took a while. Parking: There are multiple lanes for parking. I went on a Sunday afternoon and found that a number of spots were already taken. After a quick 5 minute search I was able to find a spot for myself. I was told that it gets busy only over weekends.

Love the Swedish Restaurant, LOL! Just being honest....I think the rush is more in the restaurant, especially you will be lucky to find a place. But of course, you will always end up in buying! The atmosphere, parking space, location by 401 is a good experience. IKEA, its a high time to switch to QR Code instead hanging tag on display product. Will save you lot of time, effort and align you with changing world. All in all, trip to IKEA at least twice a year is must :D

We had basically had all Swedish cuisine there. The food was totally bland as it was meant for expatriates and not Indians. However enjoyed the meatballs, mashed potatoes, Buttered green peas( they had lost green color), Fish and chips, a few desserts and salads & tea. It was on 18th June, 2023 to be exact. Absolutely self - service.we had to pick up the food and push the food - laden trolley to our seats and after eating, we push the trolley back with the food debris and plates to the designated area, to be disposited for wash. P .S. I wanted to sample the classic Potato and Anchovy Casserole but didnt see it on their menu. Vegetarian options: There are of course. We had desserts also. Kid-friendliness: Its self - service. Wheelchair accessibility: I could see that but cant talk about with authority.

The lineup moved fast and we were only waiting for around 10-15 minutes. Totally worth visiting for.

It seems like racism is everywhere, especially when its reversed. I went in with my spouse and a friend helping us buy a new kitchen and appliances. To get sales help took 45 minutes because of a personal Conversation of people from the same region in Hong Kong that wasnt buy, then I asked if they could call another associate they then told me that his area was theyre area. I mentioned that we were waiting for 20 minutes at that point then they carried on with there conversation. We went to the eating area and a small Asian woman came up to me asked me how am I paying?? I wasnt even at the cash yet... During this spanish inquisition Because no one expects the Spanish Inquisition...!!! She looking over my/ trays in a gaspoto manner. At that point I shoved the tray to her and said Bon Appetit since your sooooo curious about our food.. take it. We all left.. I called to make a complaint and Low and Behold my VM went missing.. So Ikea North York seems to be only for Asian people. As clearly shown by the Asian workers. Maybe in Indo China that works but not here. We eventually went to the 400 and hwy 7 location and got our kitchen there where the staff is great. The managers there hear our story and confirm that they hear bad stuff about the North York location Weekly. Maybe they ( Ikea) should move it to Durham..like Bowmanville.
