Flame Bar & Grill in Toronto

Owner is amazing ,food is impeccable ,favorite spot in the city

Said they open 10am but white guy inside dont wanna open waited 5 minutes and left.

I ve ordered the same thing what seems about 100 times and it always tastes the same. Food is on point , wings are delicious and saucy Dietary restrictions: Love the fish

Paid 20$ for a breakfast with no potatoes and the lady still gave me potatoes & flat out skipped on bacon I paid extra for. The rest was aggressively mid tier. What a waste of $20

Went to a 60th birthday party it was amazing.

Food was mediocre. Fries were bland and unsalted. Rice tasted like minute rice and was also bland. Very disappointed.

New owners, good food, good customer service.

They dont open at 10am

Ive been going here for years as a kid and its been a while so decided to go for their all day breakfast and unfortunately left a bit disappointed. We met the new owner who very kindly introduced himself while I asked him for a new coffee because the milk that was provided to me that I had put in my coffee was spoiled. Also now you have to pay for the meal before hand and then bring it to your table yourself. Really awkward moment as I was figuring this all out in real time. Our French toast was still very wet in the middle and egg was undercooked. Bacon was burnt. And over medium eggs were over well done. The new pictures they have up were very nice so atmosphere is nicer. But otherwise...left pretty disappointed. Maybe just needs a bit more time to pick up or maybe a new chef but yes a lot of changes.

For many years we have been going to Flame for the good service, quality and price of the food

Friendly with good service and food! Homemade burgers are always juicy, flavourful and filling

Unfortunately this is the lowest I can rate. They open st 10 am not 9 am. Breakfast comes with coffee. I didnt get coffee but was still charged. Cook looked like he had just crawled out of bed and forgot to wash up. No need to go on and on.

Food was good but the waitress ignored the customers, and was enjoying her conversation with co workers. Had to get our food myself, no worries I get it your not busy if you wanna chill at the counter when food is piling up.

Good little restaurant. Food is decent. Beer is cheep-ish Staff is friendly.

Good food and excellent service

Lovely place to be

A place to be

The place is nice and the service was good. Very nice gentleman that served our table (looks like owner). Food was average it tasted good but was not something to come back for. The restaurant looks clean.

Burger was good. I enjoy salot. fries are served to order.

Best banquet burger you can find. Great staff, good environment

Friendly atmosphere and fast service reasonable prices.

We asked for breakfast, and they serve our food in disposable plates,fork and nive too to me was terrible no presentation and elegance I said to my self Im not coming back here no way

This place was FANTASTIC. The music, vibe, and food was so worth it! Quick friendly service and clean

customers service poor wings not good ...

I like the food b4 the new owners my burger was to salty or something was just off.

The staff were extremely laid back almost to the point of ignorance and there doesn t seem to be any sense of urgency with the orders. It took us 40min to get our order and the restaurant wasn t even busy. Food was just average. Nothing to come back for. I even had to walk down to the counter to get my coffee refill. Had to ask repeatedly for a glass of water which ended up being served with a bug in it. Not sure how this restaurant is even open. Some management and people handling training is critical over here.

When you enter the restaurant the smell of old reused oil hits your face like a ton of brick. The food food is so oily and it even tastes like oil. The prices is in sane, because it s not even a high end restaurant. 5$ for a cheap bottled juice, 46$ for two breakfasts. It s crazy. Not worth it, plz try it for yourself. It use to be good a long time ago.

The homemade burger was very good, ceaser salads were soggy. The owner was very rude and walked away when trying to talk with him to resolve an issue. We had placed an order to take out, when we got home discovered that items we paid for were not there. We will not be returning to this establishment!!!!!

Customer service is hands down TOP NOTCH! Had the homeburger with fried breadfruit and a Dragon

A friend and I tried this place instead of our usual place. I hadnt been here in close to 6/7 years. The new owner is nice - but the quality of food/service has really dropped. It has gone from a table service restaurant (with cafeteria style available) to cafeteria style service only. 1. This is Harveys style service. You order and pay for your food, wait for it to cook, then carry your tray to your table. 2. Everything, and I mean everything, is served on disposable plates, with disposable cutlery, and disposable cups for drinks. This owner must be rich - because I work in the industry and I know how expensive these things are! 3. The food was not good. The burger I had was so overcooked and dry. My friend had an open face hamburger sandwich with gravy. The gravy was so salty it could not be consumed. The breadfruit was sour and past when it should have been served. The fries were your usual frozen variety - so average tasting. The interior hasnt really changed from the previous owner. I am sure that will eventually change - but it isnt bad at all. I feel like they should return to table service in the back half and use real dishes and save our environment a little (there were no options for compost or recycle available). Overall, we were very disappointed and will not return.

This used to be my go too in my area. The food was top notch and not too pricey. Staff were friendly. I went in about 4 wks ago and asked for just a coffee. The owner said the coffee was old and he wasnt making another pot so I might as well leave. I was shocked and embarrassed. New staff too. I went in today for 1st time since and old staff cook and server were there SOOO GOOD TO SEE OLD FRIENDLY FACES. But due to all the changes very little business. So sad to see.

Amazing Food And Bar .

Honly change forks and spoons no plastic pleace

Food was decent paid $30 for ham sandwhich and pancakes and was served on paper plate and plastic cutlery, expected better quality food for the price

Told by my cousin that they opened at 10am. Google Maps said 9am so we arranged to meet at 9am. Arrived at 9 and found out she was correct. How did Google get it wrong??!! Food might be fine, service might be fine, atmosphere might be fine but if Google messes up the hours then my experience is still a 1 star. Get ur hours right. As an owner its imperative you dont waste customers time. Time is extremely valuable.

This place is a nice little respite in a loud busy world, food was Ok nothing special but good portions and tasty enough. Place was clean and bright with comfortable seating and relatively quiet Food

Chicken momo was best. Reminded me taste of Nepal Vegetarian options: Green veggies Food : 5/5 |

I enjoyed my meal. Left my house because I wanted ribs and i got this place as a suggestion. I was not disappointed

Always great service. Good food. Great atmosphere.

Seriously Folks One of the Very Best Banquet Burgers Anywhere in Toronto . Nice and Fresh Nice Big Burger And the Flavor Is Spectacular . Special Bonus is that the Lovely Ladies Who work here are Super Nice & Friendly

First time here . Definitely will be coming back. Got a pork souvlaki dinner. Well portioned plate, very tasty. Server was very nice.

Customer service was great. The food was amazing. Burger was delicious and chicken kebab was great too. Definitely recommend

Was there for lunch, no waiter, all staff complaining of being short, blond lady serving was stressed, food average. I got souvlaki in bun, not impressed with taste and size. Will not go back

Got the steak dinner large portion. Salad, garlic bun, fries ( rice option available) Steak was perfectly made only complain needed a little more seasoning, just a personal preference but it was still tasty. Chef was friendly to speak with. Waitress that cashed me out was Friendly also. Will be back.

Always a staple for Homeburger and fries. Awesome fries with gravy.. They even refreshed the dining room.

Good food reasonable prices, self service after you order. Parking: Lots of available parking in front of restaurant. Wheelchair accessibility: Near by front area

I ve been here several times for lunch as I work in the area, and the last few times it s been getting worse and worse. My beef tasted tainted . Not fully off, but it was a day or two out. They raised the prices for inflation on what already seemed expensive. The Asian gentleman who cooks always has a smile and seems nice, but the person who took the order didn t feel inviting. I may give it one more shot, but I m not holding my breath

Service is good and the home style burgers are great

Food was good and fast.

Prices are a little high.

Food is not the same. I think they just brush gravy on my hot hamburger dish...edges cut of the bread...it did not come with veggies nor salad and the fries are so dry. The ravy was not great.

Food portions are small and the quality of food is not that good.

Tasty

I have been coming here for 15 years. I like the homemade burger!

Chicken Greek salad was very good, big portion as well. Staff is friendly and accommodating to orders once they can do it.

I have come here a few times since the new owner took over and the food is really good, what upset me was today I came in and ordered the same thing I always order and the staff charged me an extra 3 dollars for extra dressing for my salad and feta. I understand that it is only 3 dollars but it isnt consistent with what the owner does himself so it was disappointing.

This is a very good place to eat! They have nice staff plus cheap food! And its also near Public Transportation! (Bus, UP Train, GO Train)

New management, same great food and total upgrades to decor

The food,,, excellent,,, the price,,, not bad at all!!! Service,,, Fast!!! Quantity,,, OMG!!!

Wavy and lit

Uncooked fish and chips.. very dissatisfied. And souvlaki chicken was hard. Not happy

I enjoy eating here. Anything you want to order is a good choice. Mmmmmm....

Good food made fresh to order, with fair prices. Friendly staff and service. Got the Chicken breast on a kaiser bun combo.

The food is just great. Always. Breakfast is ALWAYS a go to but there dinners n sandwiches are absolute bangers

The flame has very good food the amount of food has got less since I was here last time other than that the staff were very nice got waited on fairly quick

Excellent stake

Its always nice. We go there every Sunday for brunch. People there are nice and friendly. Food is always great.

LOVE THEIR CHICKEN GREEK SALAD....

Great food

Great food and great prices on drinks

Extremely fast food service. Good quality food and prices. Me, my father, and my son enjoyed breakie.

Excellent

Good place for a quick breakfast.

Today I ordered lunch for my team at work. Burger fries drink....service ordering for pick up was perfect .Portions were great and the food was predictable in taste. My milkshake...or rather very cold milk was disappointing and cost 5.99. Finally....we were forced to tip a minimum of 15% on a take out order becausebwe used interact which I found shocking. It was an acceptable filling lunch....but for $71 for burgers and fries and a pop..for 4 people....we are not likely to eat there again.

Good local place. Classic diner fare with some Greeks dishes. Super friendly staff. Come enjoy the food and some Cheers like local regulars!

Food and service good

Horrible! Dont even drive by the place. The food is inedible. Everything is extremely greasy, the rice was old and it was so dry that it had become rather crispy. The salad had so much lemon or vinagre that it was impossible to eat. The souvlaki was old and dry and rather tasteless. Stay away from this neighbourhood greasy spoon. Ohh I forgot the best part, its full of bar flies just hanging around and the place stinks like a booze can. If I could give it no stars I would

Great!

My dad and I have been going here for many years. Its a great place with friendly staff. Food is always good and they are always very welcoming.

This place is AMAZING. Its a mom and pop restaurant so its like walking into your home. The staff is beyond helpful and polite. The chefs are super nice as well. The food is amazing and is almost all home cooked meals. It isnt a fancy place so if you are looking for that, this isnt it. But you will get nothing but the best service and food. Love, love, love.

First time customer... Anya makes you feel at home. Drinks are reasonable and the homemade burgers are to die for.. great neighborhood hotspot!!

Good food reasonably priced

Great food and lovely evening

All day breakfast and the home made burgers are a ten

I ve been coming here for years and the food and service is always excellent! Their homemade burger is amazing!

Friendly beautiful staff. Fast service

Great breakfast and service!

Good food.

A fantastic spot serving great diner food in a very relaxed setting. I have been going to The Flame for years and the quality is consistently good. I have enjoyed everything I have ordered, with the Greek salad being a standout on the menu. With great tasting dressing and ample amounts of feta piled on top, it won me over right away.

The service is very good, they take little time to attend to your order, the place is very nice, clean. A perfect place to go with the family to eat something delicious, and in the afternoon go with a friend and have a glass of wine.

Excellent food

My go to spot for food after a night out or anytime really..

Food is Good.

Great Brunch

Large portions but the food is somewhat mediocre. The place looks way outdated but the service is atleast okay. The prices are pretty good and they have all day breakfast. The place really needs change up the scenery, do a paint job and update the tables and chairs. The menus looks ancient. Their poutines and burgers are good . And they have specials going on every now and then.

Amazing staff, the people working here are excellent. Gave me water for free because I didn have change. Even though I wasn t a customer. Would surely recommend for amazing service. These small things do matter which makes Canada a great nation. Thank you very much :)

Breakfast it s good people working there are nice

Been coming here for years. Awesome food

Went in for lunch at 11:30am. When we asked for the club sandwich the cook rudely commented saying that he didn t have the stuff to make it and that it was breakfast only. That s weird.. and a first since we ve been here before and didn t get such awful service and experience...

Decent enough diner. Don t expect a smile at the cash and won t be disappointed. Prices ok for portions but probably reaches their tolerance zone. Not a lot of options around for similar quick lunch so go a couple times a month.

Best wings in Toronto but expensive

Needs more nonpork breakfast items

Big fat greasy old school diner. Come have lunch and then a nap.

Good food and fairly quiet atmosphere

Tasty

Great value, great food. Highly recommended

99o

Amazing food. Great staff

Great Coffee and Doughnuts

Family run restaurant good food and reasonable prices.

Good food and price

5 star

A hidden gem for those who love big portion, trucker style locations. Staff is super friendly. Never had one issue here. Only gripe with this place is that you have the occasional wino weirdo(s) that gawk at your lady or are drunk too early in the day. I wouldnt bring a family here. Just sayin

Ive been going to the flame for over 10 years. Always loved it. Its a family friendly restaurant. Food is amazing and the staff is great. Ill always go there.

Cozy space. There is ample parking in the front. The washrooms are downstairs and not wheelchair accessible. However, the washrooms are immaculate. The place is very lively. We had breakfast here and the food is nothing to write home about. Your every day breakfast items. I like the variety and the fast service. They have a standard menu, go up, order and pay, have a seat and they bring you the food or if they are busy, they call it out. They also have a bar. We got there for 11am and there were already people having hard liquor. The conversation they were having was quite x-rated, so if you bring kids, I suggest sitting closer to the front by the windows where you are out of ear shot.

Great food

Very Good

Great food and good prices

Great dinner for all day breakfast was very good, great service, would go back

One of my fave places Decent prices and great food.

Love this place!

Excellent breakfasts

Very good prices and decent sizes portions. Homemade goodness.

Amazing service everytime, great staff and great food.

They do a good steak

Absolutely my favorite place to eat for lunch in the area. I get the home burger, made fresh everytime and with fresh ingredients. Just today they gave me a free drink for no reason, amazing customer service and I regret never giving them a review years ago since I have been coming. The menu is huge and they make many other items. Thank you The flame.

Great place , amazing food , always great service... big portions ..and always fresh

Tried this place for the time, and it definitely won t be the last! I dig the set up, feels homey! Food is the bomb! Chicken and ribs, delicious! Portions sizes, AMAZING! Keep it up! Don t change! :)

I would highly recommend this restaurant! They offer so much variety for you to keep trying different things each visit, the staff are super friendly! Definitely worth the money!

It was great, my boys loved the breakfast, and the cashier was super friendly n kind

food always excellent but the prices are a little high for example you shouldnt pay $10 for a plate of spaghetti

Little expensive compared to other food, however the food is amazing and you get quite a good portion size. If youre looking for some good home made food this is the place.

Simply awesome food huge portions

Great quality food

Good food and price

Delicious food and big portions so its definitely well worth the price! Its also a plus that the staff are friendly. If youre around the neighborhood stop by, you wont be disappointed.

Nice restaurant, good service. The atmosphere is friendly.

Classic place, great food, friendly staff.

Been going to Flames for several years now. Always enjoy the breakfast. Would recommend.

LOVE THIS PLACE

AWESOME.....

The food is amazing! It is like those older restaurants where everyone knew each other, the typical hang out place. Loved it! The hamburger and souvlaki dinner were the best I have tried!

Got neglected to receive service, cause chef was on the phone. Bs Place.

Great Service and Food

Good food! Good quantity for the money

Not fancy, but good food! Biggest western omelette Ive ever had in my life!

Quality of food 5/5 Customer service 3/5 Food is good but service needs some help. This place used to be great but it seems like the cashiers dont really care anymore. You will sometimes wait as they talk to each other or they give you attitude. Most probably wont return any more

Nice little diner. Good food. No complaints

Awesome food ! Good value !

Great food, but man! The service is incredibly surly.

Clean. Fast service. Friendly staff.

Hamburger was spectacular. Neat, old school place

Super friendly, good burgers

Amazing food
