Classic and delicious; that's KOS Restaurant. A flavourful experience with all the fun of a humble dining in the most vibrant and diverse neighborhood in the city. Have breakfast, lunch, dinner or unwind with us over drinks in our Grand Patio or Bar area. KOS has been serving a menu with all the classics and influenced by Brazilian, Greek, Portuguese, and Mexican dishes. There is always something delicious to please everyone.
This restaurant near Kensington has a nice patio that's great for a sunny day. I tried the vegetable omelette and my partner the cheese omelette. They were okay, but nothing special if a little bland. The eggs, potatoes, and salad were good. Service was fast and friendly, and our bill was $40 with tip (not bad pricing), including a Minute Maid lemonade and coffee. It’s a decent spot for breakfast if you’re in the area, but don’t expect anything extraordinary. Also if you don't eat pork most of the breakfast options are pork.
My first time dining here. The food and atmosphere is great. Especially the service from the staffs is amazing, helpful and friendly. My kids like it and wanted to come back again 😊
Had breakfast on their patio, very spacious. Great to soak in the atmosphere of Kensington. The western sandwich is great and you get free coffee refills. Excellent service, friendly and attentive. Recommend.
Located close to Kensington market, this is a hidden gem with a beautiful outdoor patio and friendly staff. The food is decent with lots of options. We tried quesadilla, loaded nachos and a can’t talk eating special, everything vegetarian. The portions were great and so was the taste.
Beautiful covered outdoor patio that was newly redone over the late winter/early spring! We came by for an early breakfast and enjoyed the Huevos Rancheros and the Pulled Pork Eggs Benny. Lots of Mexican style breakfast options here. The patio is nice and relaxing and with the roof it protects you from rain/the sun so you can enjoy a nice cool breeze. Would definitely recommend trying this place! Service was good too! Very nice staff working here.
My husband and I love this place. They have the best chicken wings in the city and affordable prices. The waitstaff is very friendly and welcoming. Nadya has served us several times, and she is a true professional. We highly recommend this place to everyone.
Saw this place on tiktok so I decided to take my mom this morning. The restaurant is very open and spacious with wide open windows along with natural light. The service was good considering it was in the early morning. We ordered the Mix Grill & Avocado Benedict and it was good and the portion is big. A huge plus that it comes with salad. Parking is difficult because of the “one hour” parking rule near the restaurant so suggestion is park along Bathurst and just walk along Nassau. Recommended.
Best breakfast ever, they offer a variety of cocktails options for brunch that are delicious. Totally recommend this place! Service was amazing, music on point and everyone super friendly. Looking forward to come back!
Amazing people, amazing atmosphere very nice people. perfect lunch place ever!!!
this ambiance is extremely chill and calming. nice music, cute decor, and a variety of seating. My sister and I shared a meal that was about $20 and so amazing and filling. 3 eggs, bacon, toast, pancakes, and salad. The woman serving us was very nice and not over bearing at all. we will be back!
Over priced. I cant afford a virgin ceasar!
Always love KOS, the service and food are great, such a pleasant atmosphere. Definitely will keep coming back.
Dropped in waiting for Pauls Boutique to open. First time visit. Tried the Huevos Rancheros and so glad I did. Absolutely fantastic!!!! Great flavors and portion size. The staff is attentive and amazing!! Highly recommend you stop by and try this place, you will be happy you did!!! Dropped in for a second visit and had the Beef Burger & Fries. Just what the doctor ordered!!!!! Such a great burger and the fries were so hot, order didnt sit before being brought to the table. Simple things done well make this place shine!!!!! The staff is the best youll find. Please stop in and enjoy their offerings!!!!!!
The salad tasted like feet, the food was bland. I would not recommend
Cheap and delicious! Need I say more? Food : 5/5
Great food and service... awesome breakfast!
Best place for last minute big parties. Same day reservations for more than 40 people. Sweet potato fries and hospitality are what keeps me coming back
Went for a birthday party and the staff was friendly and amazing. We ate fries, other bar food and did shots. A simple night out that went smoothly.
The Best!!!
Great place to cool down or to be in groups. Cheers Food : 5/5
Delicious food ever!
Best bennie Ive ever had. Portions are great for the price.
Kid-friendliness: Yes Food
When I say the chicken club is the best chicken club Ive ever had I am not exadurating. It was literally the sandwich of my dreams.
Great diet coke.... Breakfast is not all day because the kitchen closes
Excellent service and Nice place.
Really great place to come for lunch, or just to hang out after a long day of work. Food has always been on point, drinks are made perfectly and all for reasonable prices! A big shout out to Erica, Maria, Lucero, Nadia, Andy for always making me feel welcomed and part of the Kos family. Would recommend this place to anyone!
The patio porch out front is very open and rustic, plenty of tables. The french toast was delicious. Our server was superb, she was so nice and professional. The salmonie eggs Benedict was alright, but I liked that the plate was well balanced with the salad and potatoes. Kos does breakfast well for sure.

Plastic came out of the hamburger patty. I didnt pay much attention to it, but I was so hungry that I just ate it, but I took a picture. I didnt say anything because the server was so busy that it didnt even check. The hamburger was big but salty and dry. The server was so busy that he included a pitcher of beer that I didnt order in the bill, so if I didnt check the bill properly, I would have been in big trouble... I told you to give me a refund.
An address to remember for a delicious breakfast. Very generous, fresh and well prepared products Perfect service A very pleasant terrace I recommend
Food is pretty decent and love the atmosphere. Best for breakfast and lunch.
Perfect
The food was incredible (the steak was perfect), the drinks were very tasty , and the waitress Ana who served me was incredibly attentive and very friendly. Now is one of my favorite places
Food was amazing and our server Nadia was the best!
Nadia was fantastic....nachos hit the spot. Must order the quac.
Nadya is an incredibly warm presence, and always concerned about her tables happiness. Everyone in the restaurant for that matter! Vegetarian options: There are nearly as many veggie options as there are meat! Kid-friendliness: Always tons of family action through the week - welcome to all!
I ve been to this place before, but more recently they ve renovated their patio and it looks gorgeous. There s great brunch, lively Spanish music, and just a fun vibe that uplifted my spirits! I got the vegan rancheros and hot chocolate..and my friend got the avocado eggs benny (if i recollect right) with coffee.. the hot choc was sooo yummy and this was hands down the best vegan rancheros I ve had.. the spicy sauce was flavorful, refried beans were well made, corn tortillas and veggies were fresh. Our waitress was amazing and really kind. 10/10 would visit again to have the same exact thing.
Service was excellent. Nadia was very helpful and pleasant. Food was delicious. Ate on the patio while it rained a bit. Patio roof covered us well. We didnt get wet. Highly recommended.
Wonderful service, Nadia was amazing. Will be back.
The food was good and the service by Nadia excellent
Thanks to Nadia we had a great experience
Go to spot for breakfast! Ericka was quick and friendly. Awesome patio
Erica rules! Vegetarian options: Good veg, kids welcome Kid-friendliness: Super great for kids, because of the patio
Erika is the best
Great food and service, special mention for Erica, she was super helpful and kind
I recently dined at [KOS] and had the pleasure of being served by Erica. Her warm and friendly demeanor, coupled with her attentive and professional service, made our meal truly enjoyable. We ll definitely be back!
It s always a pleasure eating at KOS, food is fresh the patio is gorgeous and Erica is always delightful, smiling and she s always happy to help, thank you KOS and also thank you Erica for your food hospitality and great energy.
Really nice place, servers were amazing
I have been coming here for a while now and I always have a great experience. Tasty food and friendly staff! Specially Lucero and Erica!
In for quick bite from USA . Loved it!
Lucero is the best!!
Just an awesome place for a killer breakfast with nice views. Service was straight aces and the food .DAM!
I ve been coming here for the last few years and it s one of my favourite spots to get breakfast in Toronto. The Kos Huevos Rancheros with chorizo is amazing, the potatoes with onions are so good and it comes with a nice little fresh salad. Erika has been my server many times and she s the nicest person in the world. I can t say enough good things about this place and I highly recommend it! Thanks
Erika
NADIA IS THE ABSOLUTELY GREATEST. So sweet. Was a lovely person to deal with, she gave us the best service. Best breakfast
Excellent place and the treatment is super good, Ana treated us the best Vegetarian options: They have a wide variety of low calorie dishes.
Amazing service and food. THANK YOU ERIKA
Erika is super excellent at serving, the girl is very friendly and the atmosphere is very pleasant, it is the second time I come and it is already my favorite place. Kid-friendliness: Family and respectful atmosphere.
I love coming to this place. Servers are always very nice and kind. Erica is always very charming with customers. Food

Get the Bloody Caesar and be sure to ask for Erica!! A+
We love Erika! The food is great, too. Love KOS!
Very good food, I love it!
Our waitress Ericka is always so friendly and the food is always really good. They also have some delicious vegan options. Vegetarian options: Vegetarian and vegan options Dietary restrictions: Accommodating with any substitutions
Erica is so welcoming! As usual, we had a lovely time, with great food and service, at Kos! So much to like here. Vegetarian options: Several nice breakfast /brunch plates without meat. Yum.
Great patio, great service, tasty food.
Yareli at Restaurant Kos was amazing! She made our dinner special with great recommendations and top-notch service. Definitely recommend both Yareli and the delicious food at Kos!
Great restaurant, is the best spot for breakfast at Kensington so far not to mention service is excellent, our waitress Yareli was patient and kind, she answer our all questions and recommended classic Bennie eggs absolutely delicious.
Yareli took great care of me and my wife.
BEST Patio in Toronto!!! Amazing Food. Great deal on the breakfast special. Erica and Yareli were just so attentive and kept the coffee flowing! Also the HUGE patio is DOG FRIENDLY and both our dogs had the best experience just chilling with us as we ate. THANK YOU love KOS. Trying to go every week this summer.
Cool atmosphere, the burgers are good and the fries are fried with squid-style breading.. very good
I came here for lunch and had the worst experience. The steak was so bad i couldnt eat it and had to take it off the bill. The burger was dry and tasteless. A friend and I ordered a beer and Caesar.... the Caesar was one of the worst Ive had and the beer was sour. It wasnt very busy but the servers didnt check on us at all so we had to waive them down for our order and bill. They were nice enough to take the food off the bill.
This is my must go-to restaurant in the city, especially for brunch. You cant be the location and price, and the quality and portion sizes are very good. To top it off Kos Bellevue has the most friendly wait staff, especially memorable is Jasmin; her smile and pleasantness make the place warm, even in winter.
Always loved this spot for a solo brunch trip or with some friends. On the edge of the market. Very friendly staff, I love going during the week as it can get quite crazy on weekends!
Got eggs and pancakes. This plate had cold toast, undressed salad, undercooked potatoes and the pancakes tasted like paste! Completely coating your mouth, honestly it was gross...I wasnt given any water but luckily I had a bottle in my coat. Server had a hard time explaining the menu as well. From out of town but definitely not returning when Im back in the area.
I think its a good place to eat and have breakfast and the prices are acceptable.
Very good place. The food was very delicious, the atmosphere was calm and pleasant, the customer service was very good, Maria served me and was very warm with my family .
Had an absolutely amazing time here today getting dinner. Food was a little bit too oily but other than that everything was amazing! Andi, our server, was wonderful. I would definitely recommend to anyone and everyone! Vegetarian options: More veggie options than most places for fair prices unlike most places! Simple basic foods. Highly recommend the grilled veggie and pesto sandwich!!
Nadiia top . She is always greeted with a smile and provides excellent service.
The food is lovely but they need to stop cancelling our Door Dash orders. Its happened 5 times already. Remove the service if they dont want us to go through them.
Hi, this Afternoon I went to Kos for my Second time & I have to say It is a really nice place to take any meal or drinks. I have received twice very efficient attention by Lucero, She is very kind and polite girl, I would definitely go again !!
Nadia and Andrea provide an excellent service... Attention of 10
Good place to go alone, with family or friends. Visually pleasing, good music. Nadia and Andrea serve you in the best way, kind and with the best attitude, they always ask if you are okay or if you need something. The food is delicious and with the heat, a cold beer or some soft drink. In general, a place where you will have a good time, receive good attention and eat delicious food.
Terrific service and high quality food options. Whether it s breakfast, lunch or dinner, KOS in Kensington Market is a great place to go.
I m at the mercy of the person that will choose a takeout lunch. Kos restaurant was the one chosen where I ordered the chicken Souvlaki with rice, salad and tzatziki sauce. The food arrived on time, but cold, small pcs of chicken on skewers that were overcooked and dry, the salad was all wilted and mixed with the rice, most definitely mediocre food. If you want to make Greek food, learn how to marinate the meat and to what point to grill it! Salad should be nice and crispy not wilted cooked greens, the tzatziki sauce full of cucumber strings! I will personally never order from this place again.
My friend brought me to KOS for an authentic Mexican breakfast! Ordered the Huevos Rancheros (egg, tortilla, melted cheese and a choice of meat) with Chorizo, it included a salad and potatoes as a side. This is my first time trying Mexican breakfast and it s pretty amazing! Definitely a hearty meal and they ve got a nice patio. Would love to come back and try more of the other dishes!
Food very disappointed, no flavor. Its the worst meal weve had. Here right now
Delicious!! BEST BURGER I HAVE EVER HAD ! My tequila sunrise was delish great customer service
Very odd and weired atmosphere. The crew were fine, but the customers had very weired behavior and did not feel safe around them.
A gem of a neighbourhood restaurant with high quality food, friendly staff, and an amazing patio. Highly recommended if youre looking for brews and meals in the Kensington market area.
Came for dinner and had a delicious burger. Good music. Happy energy. Definitely recommend.
Good classic breakfast place. Really nice and lively vibe.
Awesome restaurant as always! Fast service and quick ordering to food on the table. 10/10 would recommend!
Its in a beautiful neighborhood and patio was great for gatherings. The service was good and portions were not small. Food wise - need to upgrade seasoning & authenticity. We didnt enjoy the orders. Tips 18% up Food : 3/5
Good michelada
Awful, just plain awful
The Latin girl on the phone has a bad attitude, called to place an order and hung up on the phone, she didnt even let me explain to them. thanks for the service
Breakfast was great Service was excellent Food
Great little place for breakfast
Great experience! Went with my fiance for brunch and we both thoroughly enjoyed our meals and we were in love with the atmosphere, the music is so relaxing and the waitress was incredibly welcoming and kind. 10/10 would go again.
Dishes served quickly and at any time, varied, good value for money and the only restaurant open out of season (January)
I always look forward to coming here, the vegetarian options are always amazing and its relatively affordable compared to most diners. My favourites are the veggie lasagna and the grilled veggies & pesto sandwich. Vegetarian options: A lot of veggie options that you dont typically find at other diners, and theyre really yummy too!!
On our wedding anniversary, my husband and I went to this place. The food was cold and tasteless. Also, the portions were very small. Only the view is beautiful but it s not worth it
Tasty quality food, great service and fair prices. Really good place to go for all day breakfast.
Great service and atmosphere
I ve been coming to Kos for 12 years and they ve never been short of amazing everything.
Huevos Rancheros and Waffle Bennie were great. Service was fast and friendly. Would definitely come back.
Food was ok, like any where you get brunch with Egg Benedict. We received excellent customer service even though we were a big group of people. It looked clean. The washroom is not good for people with knee problem. The stairs are narrow and hard to use. Otherwise, all were good in there.
Incredible food. Excellent menu options. Highly recommend the Huevos Rancheros. Delicious chorizo and crispy melted cheese! Staff are friendly and helpful. Ambiance is comfortable and relaxing. The patio renovations are almost complete (Jan 2024) and are looking great. Seems like they ll have heated sections on patio for mild winter dining. Looking forward to returning when renos are complete and hopefully eating outside while the weather remains unseasonably mild
Super cozy spot; tasty food and simple drinks at reasonable prices.
Just the best
Just went here for a drink tonight around 10pm. Nice service, affordable drinks, house white wine was very tasty and so was the Mojito. Lots of people around still, great atmosphere!
Very good food and service. Relaxing environment. Would recommend.
Very fun and lively atmosphere. A nice place to grab a drink and food with some friends! The staff are also super friendly
Pretty basic food, happy hour deals available. Our waitor was not experienced and service took some extra time due to that - understandable though! Gluten-free options were available (eg nacho platter, but not burger).
The breakfasts are excellent! Homemade potatoes, perfectly cooked eggs benedict, freshly squeezed orange juice, and what can we say about the bread and English muffins!
Told me a menu item was gluten free, I had a reaction in under 20 minutes. They dont bother to check the sauces (huevos rancheros) Dont go if you have an allergy.
Food was good nothing crazy my waiter brought me the wrong bill at first but a good spot next to the hospital but nothing crazy by any means
Feels like youre out foreign, lovely patio love the birds flying in and out. Great breakfast, love the home fries ( actual potato and not the frozen cubes) and endless coffee.
Kensington market is a place I want to go more. What I like about KOS is it has a large patio right in the heart of the market. We have never had to worry about getting a seat. Staff is friendly. Food options fit our family and the specials are tasty. You even get a few visits from the local birds looking for a snack. Then after your meal you can wander the rest of the area. We will be back.
The food, drinks and service we had was worth the price. I will definitely come back and recommend it.
Food was okok. Price was also fine. Patio has a good view but the seats are wooden & their is a weird smell to it. The fries were not really fries, more like mashed potatoes so beware when you order. You ve been warned lol.
The past couple of times Ive been, the service has been pretty brutal. Slow, our table unacknowledged for awhile, and most recently the server forgot my order. Example: went for brunch on a Tuesday afternoon, so obviously not very busy, and the server forgot someones order at our table of three. Our table went unacknowledged for several minutes when we first arrived. Its too bad because the food is decent and its a nice patio in Kensington.
Good food, good service, good atrmosphere
8:30 Sunday morning breakfast. Four of us had a great breakfast. Food and service was awesome! Ate outside on the patio - too cool!
Great service. Lousera was Friendlys and efficient. Helped with a problem. Burgers were great. Patio with vine covered fence has a welcoming vibe. Loved the music.
Restaurant in a quiet area, pleasant terrace, decent beer, fast but good food. Usual prices. Nice
It was my first time, we celebrate a friend s birthday, the service was excellent, te food is good, I will be come back next week
Great little place! Loved it
One of the best places in Toronto to eat with live music
Very much a tourist trap. Stopped in for breakfast. Food was under seasoned and had no taste. Potatoes were undercooked and the sausages were overcooked. I would not recommend this place for a meal. Maybe drinks as it has a nice patio.
I was a fan of this place pre-pandemic. First time back for dine-in. We got two menus with different prices, and the final bill had yet again different prices than the higher priced menu. Wasnt worth the bill+18% (minimum tip option). Service was off too. Used to be great, maybe will check back in a year...
Nice food, didn t wait long. Service was great!
Breakfast was delicious . I will definitely come back to this restaurant
Awesome thanks guys for the great service
Best happy hour in town!
Good spot The attention is very good, live music, good vibes, and the French fries are the best!!!
Pleasant experience
Comfortable Latin experience in Canada. I honestly felt very well received.
Excellent service and atmosphere, delicious food
We ordered around 12 and left around 1. Complimentary water arrived first, then our drinks, then our food. Around 12:40 when we were done, a waitress asked if I needed more water, which I did because of the dry pancakes. We waited another 20 minutes before she brought the water and it took five minutes to get the card reader to work. I suppose it was a busy time with brunch options also being ordered by other guests, but it seemed like waitresses were primarily hired for their looks. There were many wasps around the patio, and the chocolate milk was made with excess Nesquik.
The food is great value for money and the staff are wonderful! The interior decor is a little bit dated but doesnt take away from a good experience.
the best restaurant in Kensington Market! excellent for breakfast or celebrating a birthday! excellent music and drinks !!
Great local Kensington diner. Good greasy spoon comfort food. Go have a genuine Old School Toronto brunch.
Had the Caesar & NO pickled anything with it. Sad.
Avocado Benny on waffle. Dont imagine it, get it.
The BF got up unusually early so we came to this place for some breakfast. The pulled pork on the egg benny was delicious as was the hash. Our server was soooo nice. Its a great breakfast place!
The BEST patio in Kensington, hands down. Theres always room to sit, service is quick and friendly, food is delicious, and the price is right!
Extra star for the service!!! Vegetarian options: Yes walkable parking. Parking: Dont drive there, is nice to walk!! Kid-friendliness: Its like a patio for the kiddos Wheelchair accessibility: 3 entrances, 3ramps.
Consistently excellent service in an extremely welcoming environment. My favourite patio in the market. The food and drinks never disappoint. EDIT: Service is really bad now. I used to love this place but it is consistently underwhelming now. The servers are basically apathetic.
Had breakfast here, amazing food and atmosphere with good service. First time trying a Mexican breakfast (Huevos Rancheros - California), alongside the usual French toast and pancakes. Highly recommend anyone to try this place at least once. NOTE: come early to get a good spot
We go for all day breakfast/brunch all the time - theyve got standard diner food, mexican influenced, and lots of vegetarian/vegan options. My partner goes for the steak and eggs, I get the vegetarian huevos rancheros. Great value! Large Outdoor patio is awesome in nicer weather which fills up quickly but they have a decent amount of seating inside when needed. Service is always lovely. Vegetarian options: Lots of veggie and vegan breakfast options!
The patio is one of my favourite in the city. The team is divine. My day always starts right when I have breakfast here.
Huevos rancheros are the best.
Amazing breakfast and service! Kid-friendliness: They have a breakfast section for kids in their menu with a decent price Food : 5/5 |
We got there hungry for an early breakfast at 8 am! They were ready and welcoming! My daughter was hungry and they brought her pancake right away. They re kid friendly and provide great service. We also were impressed with the size of their plates, i finished maybe 1/3 of my plate. Great atmosphere as well and a great patio even though it was cold and we decided to eat inside. Kid-friendliness: The service is attentive to the kids. They have good quality and clean high chair.
The fries are very tasty and the happy hour deal made for a very enjoyable evening with my friends
I went to this location for the 1st time yesterday and ordered the avocado benny. I noticed after lunch I was feeling off and had absolutely no appetite for dinner and then I got food poisoning. I assume it was the hollandaise sauce they served me that caused it.
