Over Easy

Pretty decent breakfast/​brunch place if you ask me. Wish they stayed open later.
It does get busy during the weekend but I’ve never had to wait for a table any time that I’ve been, mainly because it’s very spacious and there’s a small patio open during the summer.
The eggs bruschetta is my personal favorite and it comes in a large portion with fries, definitely worth the splurge.
They accommodate special requests and substations very well. I remember this one time I requested 2 blueberry and 2 chocolate pancakes rather than 4 of just one kind, and the kitchen gladly did it for me (probably because it was slow at the time).
Service is great as well, friendly and efficient.

Favorite place to go for a tried-​and-​true breakfast! Absolutely adore their smoked salmon eggs benedict, but also love their aged cheese (n thick bread!) tuna melt. Can’t exactly make up my mind, but I know for sure that the sunny disposition and happy charm of the staff will keep me coming back here time and time again.
They offer home fries, fries, salad, or soup with almost every entrée, so it’s quite filling, although the soup portion is more like a cup (but the salad is huge, so go for that if you’re feeling like an actual meal). Sucks that they open at 7 and close at 4, with no foreseeable change in the schedule, but this is definitely a treat to college kids everywhere, ruined from the all-​nighters, and in need of destressing with some genuinely fresh food.

Seriously? We ordered a Greek omelet. Two tiny hunks of barely warm feta, chunks of nearly raw onion. The eggs were either pre made into pancakes and wrapped around the filling and reheated or flipped in the pan and cooked on both sides folding filling on it on the plate. Not an omelet at all when the filling all falls out before your fork reaches your mouth. Asked for dry toast and it came slathered in butter. They did bring another basket right away, tho. The home fries taste great but are just diced up French fries and deep fried. If you like French fries you will like these.

Great clean breakfast or lunch choice. Very affordable and I liked it better than my hotel food. Very friendly staff. I noticed alot of people meet here for small meeting over a meal. Smoked Salmon Benedicts is now a favorite. I can’t wait to return.

This place was located right next to our hotel so we had to stop in, especially on a crisp day, we didn’t feel like walking far with the kids. The place is a small, quaint place with quite the menu.
I was out on a quest to eat anything poutine so when I saw the breakfast poutine on the menu, I had to get it. It has peameal bacon, hash, regular bacon, cheese, and over easy eggs on top. It was delicious. My kids shared the simple menu of two eggs, bacon, tomatoes and toast. They were really generous with the toast and we got a whole basket of it. My husband got the eggs and hash, which were also really good. My husband got coffee so they came out with a carafe. The service here was also really good, with the exception of them forgetting our toast at first until we asked for it.
I enjoyed every bite here, I think this place just needs to update their ambiance, which it looks like they’re doing just that. It has a lot of potential to be a comfort place for many people.

This place has never disappointed. And it is awesome proximity to the holiday Inn and intercontinental yorkville hotels. They have a large menu and drinks at 11:00 am which comes in handy for recovery.

I go to both locations very often as I work by one and live by another. They have a great menu and I have a few faves, including their fresh juices and the Skillet.
The last two times I have been to Bloor I l’ve had very substandard portions and quality on dishes I regularly order. Glenn the manager & his family own the restos. When I took the time to tell him, he literally did not care and did not offer to comp even my coffee. As thanks for giving him important feedback about his business, he only gave me attitude, very similar to what other reviewers have said about him. I won’t go back to the Bloor location due to issues above.
On the other hand, his sister, Kirsten or Kiersten, runs the one on Yonge and she is lovely, you can tell she cares about her business, I have chatted with her a few times. The quality at Yonge location is very consitent and the staff are really great and that is due to a great manager!

One of the best breakfasts in the Toronto core area!
Their food is absolutely fantastic and flavored to perfection. I’ve never had a bad meal from them, and their home fries are the BEST (it’s a must have)! The servers are very nice and efficient, which is great for those faster mornings.
The area is in a great location, right across from the ROM and U of T, and 2 stations subway ride away from eaton center, making this an ideal breakfast place as part of a weekend outing to Downtown Toronto.
The décor is very homey and classic, yet clean, and you can always smell the eggs and bacon coming from the back!

This place made my entire trip! Not only was the food incredible, but the two people who waited on us were the nicest most sincere people I’ve ever met. Everything from the coffee to the home fries were perfect. It would be worth walking miles to get to this place. I can promise you I will be going back tomorrow morning.
Honestly I know it seems petty to write this much for a simple breakfast, but this place is worth it. It would be the best decision of your morning.

Over Easy was my go-​to place for breakfast /​brunch /​whatever while I was in university and even if I don’t go very often anymore, I still have very fond memories of lotsa coffee, breakfast at whatever time I got around to it (usually after noon) and awkward conversation with whatever girl I had a crush on that semester, ostensibly to get notes off of or some such.
Service was always just fine, never casting dispersions on U of T students who probably weren’t going to tip well (myself excluded of course) and the coffee and other more fancy beverages were usually quite tasty. The Huevos Rancheros and the Spanish Omelette (hold the mushrooms) are my faves but they really do have a pretty solid and varied breakfast menu. As their name suggests, eggs are their specialty and they do them quite well.
So make it a part of your routine if you need a place to start the day while shirking your studies /​flirting with your fellow students. It’s worth the extra few bucks vis-​à-​vis McDonald’s or some place on campus… hopefully you have better luck than I did when it comes to impressing the cute girl who sits in front of you!

Fantastic breakfast place! Great location and reasonably priced fire the neighbourhood.
Kid friendly and very accommodating

Over Easy is a diner, pretty much like the ones that you see on TV in various movies and series. I have been here for most of my breakfasts in Toronto, it was close to the hotel and served reasonable food at a reasonable price.
There is an interesting selection to pick from, coffee is good and abundant, service is real nice and quick.
If you are looking for a full fledged American breakfast that doesn’t break the bank, it’s a very good place to stop.

I have a thing for brunch spots and Over Easy has moved to the top of my list. Here’s why…
A brunch spot should be nicer than a diner and still be in the $-$$ price range (but I happen to prefer being closer to the lower end of $$). Which they are. My breakfast and 2 cocktails came to $ 25.00. Score.
A brunch spot should have an array of eggs benedict dishes, breakfast cocktails, and home-​fries style hash browns (diced and fried potatoes… to die for if you haven’t had them). Which they do! They nailed it with Eggs Benedict, it happens to be my favorite dish and I get it every time at breakfast if it’s offered. I really enjoyed their cocktails. I personally had the Greyhound which is Grapefruit Juice and Vodka (never had that combination before but it certainly won’t be the last) and a Mimosa. And the home fries were fried to perfection, crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside.
A brunch spot MUST have excellent service. My server was an absolute sweetheart. He didn’t come over to often but he was always present. He made great suggestions and he made me feel happy to be there. I was in brunch heaven. Thank you to the good folks at Over Easy.
I really wish they had bottomless cocktails but then again I don’t because the restaurant is small and if you come at the wrong time, you’ll have to wait for a table. I’ve noticed that the bottomless cocktail spots usually have longer waits. But all in all, I wouldn’t change anything and I think this is a great spot for tourists. It’s close to the subway and right across the street from the Royal Ontario Museum.

Great breakfast option. Best one in this part of bloor st. Great deals for the quality of the meals and portions very centrally located so very easy to get to. Come if your an egg fAnatic it enjoy breakfast foods! Great front patio for a nice day to enjoy some sunshine and hear the hustle and bustle of bloor street!

I had the Eggstro and my wife had the banana pancakes. I would definitely have that again. It was delicious. I’ll give this place 3 ½ stars as a breakfast diner with a great selection of items to choose from, including fresh squeezed orange and grapefruit juice.

We are regulars at this place. Like the fact that they offer salad as an option for a breakfast side and that they accept modifications. Their menu additions which include a dish with poached eggs and avocado are good.

Not the greatest, but a decent enough greasy spoon for late-​day brekkie. If you’re desperate.

Thought it would be a long wait on a Sunday at noon but they were very quick to seat us! Packed house but food came out at a decent time. I had the eggs Benny! Very good. Filling too! Def worth the initial 10 min wait

3.5 stars
This place serves all day breakfast and lunch menu items as well. We came here for lunch on a weekday and was quickly seated which was great because we were starving. I decided to get the classic 2 eggs which comes with toast, home fries, slice of tomato and lettuce ($ 6.99) which is not bad for something around Bloor W area. My friends got caramel and banana french toast (~$ 10.99) and eggs benedict which came with a side salad (~$ 14.99). The portion for the french toast was generous, the portion for the eggs benedict was just right for a regular serving. However, for $ 14.99 to me that’s a bit expensive.
Overall, the meal was great and service was alright as well. I would come back here for their breakfast foods.

This review is for the Over Easy located at 56 Young Street in the Hotel Victoria.
Randomly found this place after a quick web search for breakfast near our hotel, never heard of it before and as first timers in the big city, figured it was good as any to start the day.
We were greeted very warmly, staff is upbeat and will definitely brighten your morning.
Great selection of all breakfast foods you can think of. Was a bit overwhelmed with the choices as I’m not used to heavy meals before noon. I settled for the «healthy light» option which is yogourt and granola topped with lots of fruits and a muffin with a glass of freshly squeezed OJ.
My partner, by contrast, got a massive breakfast poutine.
Portions are generous, food is delicious and filling, just found it a tad too expensive. 2 plates, 2 juices and 1 coffee came up to 40 $ for both of us. Stay away if you’re looking for meals on a budget!

Ah dommage. Nous y allions régulièrement quand nous étions dans le quartier mais ce midi fut la conjugaison d’un service agressif et dépassé en sus d’une omelette servie avec un magnifique cheveu … De quoi vous dégoûter à toujours. On nous a remboursé le coût du plat, mais est-​ce suffisant? A mon avis, non.
