Food Scene

Probably the best place for Tacos in Toronto, make sure you get the guacamole. It's a funky atmosphere, and it's pretty busy so try and book ahead or show up and you can probably eat at the bar. Easily walkable in all seasons.

If someone described the cutest little neighbourhood oriented slightly off the beaten path coffee shop, this would be it. Plus they brew Intelligentsia so the coffee is good. The side patio and front stoop are the perfect spot to hang out and relax.

Most big cities have some amazing Italian Restaurants that everyone raves about, and when you go there it lives up to the billing and you can't wait for an excuse to go back. It's worth an Uber ride to get here and have an amazing dinner. If you can't get a reservation take a chance and see if you can get a seat at the bar as a walk in.
