  • I've never given a 1-star on Yelp because that's just sad, but Fran's (basically all locations in TO) comes pretty close in terms of food. I've been to this location multiple times in the past 6 months, most of the time for eat-in, but once for takeout. Fran's has an impressively long menu with comprehensive options accommodating everyone. Yes, it has all-day breakfast, which is a beautiful thing, but also has heart, savory lunch/dinner options, i.e. steak. My issues with the food, which truly deserves 1/5 stars imo, are that the fresh ingredients (vegetables, fruits) rarely taste or look fresh, the awkward presentation and portion distribution of certain dishes (e.g. nachoes) make the food appear unappetizing, and any natural flavors are masked by salt, sugar, and grease, which I guess what more can I expect from a chain brunch restaurant. They do have some vegetarian and vegan options as larger brunch places do. But definitely not healthy here, don't kid yourself. Even their salads (which I do NOT recommend since they are so measly and show very minimal effort from the kitchen) and especially their omelettes are not worthy of health stars due to grease and dressings (do a Google search of the nutritional content here). The fruit cups here are tiny and lack variety - literally a few grapes and tasteless cubes of melon. Comparing Fran's to Cora's, Fran's has smaller portion sizes, less wholesome and fresh ingredients (remember the huge amounts of fruit you get at Cora's?), but is much more convenient since has long hours (24 hours at some locations, but not this one. vs Cora's only opened until the afternoon). Pros- great service here. All the waiters and waitresses I've encountered here so far have been so upbeat (even at 10PM) and attentive. Food also comes out relatively fast (within 10 mins). This Fran's also has a large venue with a bar area, booths, and giant TV screens playing mainly sports, as well as a large outdoor patio (gorgeous on summer days).
