Cafe Polonez

Polish restaurant · Old Toronto

"Restaurants don't last for 30 years unless they're doing something right, and today this family-owned Roncesvalles institution is still an icon of Toronto's Polish community. There are so many things to like here: velvety borscht, pierogi that are soft without being gummy, potato pancakes with dollops of fresh sour cream, tender Wiener schnitzel, mashed potatoes oozing with butter and chives, and reliable soups. You won't find a more filling meal for the price anywhere in town. Café Polonez is a well-worn—for good reason—and welcome stalwart in Toronto's dining landscape." - Todd Plummer
