Manita Ossington

We went to Manita Ossington for a brunch. It's a very nice, bright, and inviting neighborhood cafe/restaurant/bar. The menu has a good variety of options to choose from. I ordered the Manita Breakfast (smoke salmon, soft egg, capers, red onion, tomatoes, dill, and griddled bread) and a cappuccino. The food was nicely plated, and the ingredients were fresh. I personally enjoyed the breakfast, so I highly recommend giving it a try!

Came to celebrate a friends birthday for brunch. Had seen reviews on TikTok and was excited to try. Sadly the food and service did not live up to the hype. Food: We ordered the burger (which had tonnes of reviews of being one of the best in the city) but the fries were more of a highlight than the burger. It was not worth the $29. We ordered the prosciutto and burrata sandwich which was probably the best thing we tried. We also got the Ribolitta soup which was not hot at all. Service: our table server was amazing. She was super attentive and deserves 5 stars herself. However, there was a male server who was rude and not accommodating at all, actually provided little effort to provide customer service. They also didn’t have cash change for us?

The food was so fresh and flavorful. The sourdough bread was 😍😍😍😍My hubby and I shared the Niçoise salad and the Mediterranean platter. I thought the salad was going to be an actual fresh tuna steak based on the price of $27 but I still really enjoyed it. Will be back to try more menu items

Cozy little restaurant with a nice patio, serving brunch and other lunch/dinner dishes, make this a versatile stop to dine during all times of the day. Food is very well made as we sampled some brunch, sandwiches, and entree's. Inside dining space is limited, so larger parties is a bit hard to accommodate, make reservations! I give them 8.5/10!

Is this the best burger in the city? Idk but it’s totally up there. Vibe late on a fri was great and we just walked in no reso. Drinks were yummy and friendly staff. Unfortunately the anchovy crostini was just bread with 3pm of butter and an anchovy which was far too much butter. Japanese sweet potato was yummy, but tbh I couldn’t get over the butter on the crostini. Burger came first which was strange so had the apps last?? Anyways I’d totally come back and try the rest of menu. Btw came for lunch and had the Panzanella salad which was unreal.

The food and aesthetic was on point but I’m a little disappointed with the service. Our waitress had a stank face the entire time, and just looked so annoyed with our existence. We were nothing but nice and friendly to her but she looked so bothered to be there and just kinda ruined the mood. I work customer service and know people can have bad days, but when we’re a paying customer we expect to be treated with a little bit of respect and kindness at the bare minimum.

Came for lunch. The chicken parm sandwich and burger were REALLY good. Service was great. Both items were charged at higher price point though.

I really like the atmosphere at the place, especially the outdoor patio that looks out to the busy street of Ossington. There wasn’t a huge selection of food options here, the food was good and it wasn’t bad. But it wasn’t anything special and outstanding. They don’t specialize in one cuisine. The Mediterranean platter seemed like an appetizer platter not a main dish. The lemon spaghetti was very good, but the spaghetti pieces were a little too thick and tough.
