Grindhouse Burger Bar - Toronto, Ontario
Review rating: 2 out of 4 = Very good
Competition is a good thing, especially in the restaurant world. It brings out the best in products and services. The King West neighborhood (between Peter and Bathurst) has plenty of competition for anyone willing to spend $10-$15 for a decent meal.

Ematei japanese Restaurant
Review rating: 0 out of 4 = You won't miss anything

Zucca Trattoria - Toronto, Ontario
Review rating: 1 out of 4 = Good

Now, if you haven’t eaten a whole fish before, shame on you.
