Reyna On King - Toronto

My favourite thing about Reyna on king (other than the ambience) is the service. Hospitality and customer care is TOP NOTCH. Definitely the best in the area (I live in the area).This visit we went for brunch and had the lamb shank benny, short rib grilled cheese and the Arabic fries. The food is unique and well executed literally the only things I'm looking for when I go out.I've seen previous reviews knocking the baklava and the fries and tbh I understand the perspective, they are different than what you'd experience at other restaurants. The saffron in the baklava is absolutely incredible. Such a fun take on a great dessert. I also love that it's large enough to share. The fries, again, are unique. The super skinny version they serve with the Arabic fries (I'm not sure if they are the same fries for their other versions) are best eaten with a fork, the texture is unreal, the seasonings fantastic.Overall, a really great experience always... AND they keep all the local doggos well fed with a treat tray out front LOVE

This cute little neighbourhood bar was a great find during a random stroll on the King Street. Loved the vibe, drinks, food and everything about the place. The staff was warm and friendly. Def recommend to try their shawarma

Great place with amazing food, chill vibes and awesome cocktails. I wish there was more seating because it’s just so awesome!

Decor is beautiful. Comfortable seating. The washroom lighting could be better (felt too dark for the space). Had the short rib grilled cheese with fries. The lightly spicy ketchup went well with the thin and nicely seasoned fries. The meat was tender.Look, I get it. Summer, lets open our windows to be all cute and breezy. But let's not when the bugs are coming for your guests?! A hornet or yellow jacket kept coming for us and our food. It was buzzing around our faces, landed on our food, near our plates, etc. It was disastrous and we cut our brunch short because of it. So if you're coming to visit and the windows are open, sit as far away from the front as possible. ? ?

You know the food is good when you forget to take pictures until the very end.I’ve been here a few times and was so happy to take my (extremely Lebanese) parents here to show off the city a bit. The calamari with za’atar was, according to my mother, the best calamari she’s ever tasted. I will personally rec the chickpeas three ways.The service was also impeccable and so friendly. (Special shout out to Shalena and Carrie sorry if I’m butchering the spelling!)Come here for good food and good times and be ready to share !! Not a place for standalone meals.Pictured below churros over chocolate mousse with mint and avocado. It was delicious and probably my least favourite thing we had, so the bar is HIGH.
