Best Casual Restaurants in Yonge and Lawrence

A lovely setting to enjoy the best hummus I’ve had - couldn’t stop eating the pita. The branzino was cooked perfectly. Our server was a pleasure.

Stock is consistently good. Staff are exceptional, well mannered and cool people. The food is always on point-delicious and fresh. Great cocktails and drinks on the menu.

Excellent as always. Consistently delicious food. A+++

Service was awesome, took care of all my allergies easily. Lovely place for a meal. Nice for an occasion. Left wanting to form back in the summer when their patio opens. Their happy hour looks sweet too.

Our party of 6 celebrated both our son’s 25th birthday and Mother’s Day for my wife. We were all excited to try Scotthill as Jamaican food was a favourite of the birthday boy and the food reviews we read were all good. It is a small restaurant and has little room for guests to wait for their tables and unfortunately it was raining outside. Once we got our table we ordered fairly quickly having read that food was served fairly slowly from time of order. Curried Roti, BBQ Jerk Chicken dinner with rice, plantain and Channa were the favourite orders along with refreshing Ginger Beer. An excellent bowl of chicken soup was provided complimentary due to the wait. As expected the main courses took about an hour to be served. So if you’re one to be impatient with speed of food service, you should be warned. The food itself was very good. The curried chicken Roti was the favourite of the meals served. Quite excellent. The BBQ jerk chicken was also quite good. The only downside was the many small bones one had to be careful of in eating the chicken. The Channa was very tasty and a good dish to share. The plantain was enjoyable, tasting somewhat like a potato textured less sweet banana. We enjoyed our meals and would return for the food. We would go thinking this would be a minimum 2 hour dining experience and be in no hurry!
