This was my first time in Toronto and was looking for a quick lunch on Queen West and ran into this place. I had asked a local about diners and he didn't know so I figured that Toronto was a little too high-class to have dive diners but it would appear not.
I found the one reviewer who mentioned the slave-driver cook and how rude he was is completely true. Our waitress was foreign and didn't speak English very well but she was trying really hard but the cook was just plain mean to her, despite his apparent lack of English skills as well. The food was ya know greasy diner food and cheap so I couldn't complain. I tried to break a $10 to ride the streetcar and they looked at me and the cook just grunted something and i eventually got some change.
