When I first moved into the area, I tested many of the restaurants on Queen looking for at least one that I wouldn't feel embarrassed bringing out of town guests to in a pinch. I would walk by Green Eggplant and was fascinated by how busy it always was, but I was looking for something a little more exotic.
Since then, I've eaten there at least half a dozen times and the food is reliable, standard flavours, fresh. Overall a safe bet in the realm of lacklustre restaurants in the Beach, especially for people that like basic food without too many surprises.
