| - The Goof is an amazing gem of a restaurant, a Toronto institution. I've going a regular for the past fifteen years and while the place has seen lots of changes (especially when it comes to the décor), fortunately the food quality and price have remained unchanged.
What makes the Goof such an amazing and successful place is that they don't try to be what they're not. They make simple, fast and affordable food. From Chinese food, burgers, breakfast, Italian food, there's something for everyone here and it's all decent and affordable.
The staff working here, while not the friendliest at first glance, are very efficient. Give them some time and get to know them a little bit before making judgments. These are extremely hard working people, decent people and kind if you also make the effort to know them.
Great hours, great location (the Fox theatre is across the street, Ed's Scoop and Chocolate by Wickerhead are nearby), great price, good food. Definitely worth at least one visit but to fully appreciate it, several visits and a stroll around this amazing neighbourhood are a must!
