It is what it is. That's basically how I describe Richtree in general. If you've been once, you know exactly what to expect any other time you go. Richtree has stayed the same from the first time I went years ago all the way up till now. It never changes anything drastically. It will never ever surprise you, but at the same time, it shouldn't ever disappoint you because you have no expectation either.
This location at Bayview and York Mills is probably the most quiet location. It's got a large seating area where sound doesn't seem to travel real well, which is a good thing. You can easily have a quiet conversation where at the other Richtrees, it could be more difficult.
When it comes to the food, you know what to expect. It's the same things they've been serving all these years. They might add a special here and there but that;s about it. You have the rosti, pasta, burgers, sandwiches, seafood, and desserts. At the very least, mostly everything will be prepared fresh to order.
Service is hit or miss depending on how busy it is. I've never had a terrible experience at Richtree. But like I said, I've never been blown away either.
