"5th Elementt is the first place we think about if we have to go out to take friends and family. We might have gone at least 25 to 30 times in last 2 years. Except in one occassion every other time we had excellent experience. Lamb Shank, Salmon Wrapped Scallops, Gratinated Veggie Samosa are the best of all"

"We went to celebrate my birthday, and We had a great time!! awesome food, great music and nice people... Service was excellent, I made reservations on line and had no problem at the door at all. "

" I was there for a family religious party with a guestlist of approx. 30 people. From the beginning of the night I knew I was not going to be impressed. There was about 3 other parties going on when we entered. Our party was seated; mingling and talking, without ONE single waitress taking orders for what we would like to drink. I'm not..."

"Went to La Maquette for Summerlicious last year with high expectations. Obviously this place is past its prime. The food was clearly pre-prepared in an unacceptable way; meat was dry, jus was coagulated and had clearly been sitting for quite some time. Disheveled waiting staff in mismatching and untidy/un-ironed shirts forgot our order, brought us the..."

"Its closed. And good riddance. Dont get me wrong; it IS situated at the crux of nightlife in that entire Markham & Richmond Hill area. But a horrible male security staff & weapon toting imbeciles ruined what was otherwise one of the only reasons to venture out in that 905 area thurs - sat. Locals and urbanites alike did enjoy themselves when they were..."

"Great restaurant. Great food. Everything comes out piping hot. I would recommend everything. Great servers and atmosphere. We had a wonderful night out on Xmas Eve. Easy to find and parking on the street right at the door. Flamenco show was excellent. Exciting dancer and great guitarist. This is the place to visit!!!!"

"I've been going to the Maddy for many years now and it's unquestionably one of my top choices to grab a few beers on a Saturday night. If you can deal with the sometimes claustrophobia-inducing crowds, then try to snag a seat in the guitar-room and soak in the atmosphere. The entertainers (piano room and guitar room) that the Madison..."

"We had been there before and loved it so, when we saw that Lolita's Lust had a Winterlicious menu at a good price ($25/per person) we decided to go back there. It was dissapointing. The place seemed a little run down which is not how I remember it, although it is a couple of years older now. The staff were great, friendly and knowledgable. We all..."

"I was not impressed. The menu was limited with the two fish items not available. The food was cold and had to be reheated. Tomato fennel soup was really a broth with no substance and too sweet a flavour. Service was slow and the food and wine were overpriced. "

"I've been to the Bier Market a few years ago and I've always had a great time - Great food and drinks....But that's not why I'm writting this review. I just had to cancel a reservation I had for tonight - I'm too busy to call and cancel so I just sent a quick email to them cancelling and the reservations manager..."

"I was in Leaside on business a few weeks back and had a craving for some Italian food. A restaurant called Pallucci just happened to be right there. Lucky eh? I judge an Italian place by its Risotto or pasta. Pallucci stood up on both the occasions. By the way, their Risotto is a must! It's creamy, slow-cooked, and some of the finest I've..."

"Went there for Winterlicious last week. Had no problem getting a reservation for a Saturday night which was a surprise but that's the recession I guess. Sat at the bar for drinks as they were clearing our table. Martinis were excellent and they had mixed nuts at the bar which are my weakness. The nice thing was that our table was..."

"Great place to take refuge on a cold evening. The patio is a great place to hang out with a cold drink on a hot summer night."

"Love this place ~ excellent food and live entertainment en francais is magnifique! Would recommend without reservation. The french doorman was a great touch!"

"We went to Bymark for Summerlicious. The restaurant had a great atmosphere. Our server was very attentive and extremely pleasant. We sampled everything off the summerlicious menu and also ordered the foie gras from the regular appetizer menu. The food was to die for. The Bymark burger was so moist and juicy, and the rosewater pavlova dessert just..."

"This is the second time I have had dinner at Trapezzi and I love the warm and inviting atmosphere, and the stylish decor...I ordered the Rigatoni with Chorizo sausage, double toasted bacon, cherry tomatoes, scallions, crushed chili, spicy tomato cream sauce and it was just the right combination of every ingredient, topped with the freshest parmesan..."

"The stars are not working well- I would give it a four/5. Great drinks, a nice airy atmosphere,an excellent curry- if ya'll can take the heat! NOT pretentious, considering where it is located...great for people watching! It is a true mixing pot of dress and casual attire...any day of the week. Good brunch spot too!"

"A bunch of us girls went to this amazing restaurant, recommended by a friend, and it was great! I had gone to cancun last summer and the food at El Rincon is even better! I would recommend the tacos or fajitas, and if you like spicy ask for the hottest sauce, you'll never feel the same about hot sauce again =) 10/10"

"I wrote last week about how excited I was to be going to Winterlicious. I still love the event, but will probably give more time next year to picking just the right place to visit. I wrote last time about how I believed Winterlicious is an excellent time for Toronto restaurants to showcase what they can do to people who may never dine there..."

"POOR SERVICE, POOR FOOD, VERY DISAPPOINTED, WON'T GO AGAIN. "

"I went to Teatro on Saturday night to celebrate my friends birthday. We had the most amazing time! They had a DJ playing rock music and the crowd was loving it! I'm told that they have a few DJ's that they bring in with different genres of music but lucky for me, I was there for the 80's rock/pop :) The bartender, (Mike) was great!..."

"Horrible food would not ever return again Rather eat in an airplane"

"I and 3 other friends went to La Vecchia on November 7, 2008 for dinner. We were very disappointed at the level of service. The waiter did not offer any service besides taking our orders. Two of us finished our drinks (beer and juice) before we fisnished our appertizer but weren't offered a second one despite the fact that the waiter walked by our..."

"the food was great and the service was out standing.If you are Downtown you have to check this place out!!!!!."
