It's a traditional greasy spoon that serves more than just grease. Make like a regular & order the daily specials by number as the old school wait staff expect no less. The folks in my office go for weekly esophageal lubrication (or aterial clogging, depending on your view). Popular choices are Montreal smoked meat (from the reputable Lesters Deli) served on Silverstein's rye bread. The Friday mac & cheese is also a hit though lunchtime consumption might hamper p.m. productivity.
Right at the corner of Broadview & Danforth, this is old-school perfection. Fantastic, cheap & basic. No frills here but the portions are huge and the prices can't be beat. Great all-day breakfast and fantastic pizza-for-one or pizza-for-two. Love it.
Real Diner. Hot sandwiches are awesome. Speak with the cook, he speaks 13 languages!
Best comfort food in the city.
Best Burger and Fries (get the fries well done!)...oh and try the grilled cheese as well!
I really appreciate the simplicity and kitsch of a real-deal diner. Stem hasn't changed a thing in decades, and that's as it should be. Sliced chicken on toasted brown with lettuce, mayo and a pickle on the side is my perfect nostalgia sandwich. A booth or counter seat here is a great place to get down to basics, or even business, if you happen to work nearby.
it’s across from Massey Hall, open 24 hours and has killer five-cheese macaroni.

Awesome collection of pez dispensers, huge coffee mugs (filled with coffee), friendly atmosphere and a fantastic brunch. It's very vegetarian friendly.
I always end up there at three in the morning and have life talks with the wait staff.
Classic diner delights with crazy names... Shanghai Cowgirl is just as much fun as it is delicious!
watching them work the grill is a great free perk. Plus, yummy diner food for cheap.
it's such a classic, greasy spoon diner. The only place that does my eggs exactly the way I like them - yolks hard at the edges, but soft in the middle. For a real treat, sit at the counter and watch the two cooks make everyone's breakfast, keeping all the orders straigtht in their heads. These guys are pros.

they have the BEST homemade onion rings, and the best coleslaw, and the best milkshakes, and the best jukeboxes...
