Sheli's - Thornhill, Ontario

I ordered a Reuben and it was good. However, there is one to note; this restaurant is VERY overpriced! I understand as a kosher restaurant there are costs to meet, but the sandwich itself maybe would cost 10-11, and I paid 20 dollars for it. Also a Reuben should not ... have a burger bun on it.

Good food and decent prices. Only complaint is that the cashier handled cash and then she started touching food without changing her gloves

Came here for father's day dinner and completely ruined our day. Paid $50+ and got yelled at. This review is two fold, the food and the experience. When we walked in, it smelled good and were excited. We ordered the fried chicken, which had an unique smoky aroma. Not sure if that ... was intended or not, but it didn't taste good. It was not crispy enough and was cold despite us waiting for 20 minutes and eating it fresh. The only good thing was that it wasn't dry. The burger was a big disappointment. It didn't taste like anything at all. Couldn't taste the meat (no flavour and super thin) , the tomatoes was bland and it just felt like I was eating the bun with ketchup. We also ordered the Chicago dog but they gave us the chili dog instead, so that had to be changed. And didn't make it a combo like we ordered so had to wait a while again for the fries to come. They were fine to me, but my toddler that was asking and asking for fries didn't even touch them at the end. Guess he didn't like it. Now to the experience. Honestly, I wasn't expecting to be yelled at by the owner /manager. He came out with headphones on so maybe he didn't realize how rude and loud he was. I had taken out my 2 year old's usual dinnerware out: water bottle, a plate and utensils. Since there was quite a wait I started giving him some steamed brocoli and a juice box that I had brought. Manager comes out screaming that no outside food is allowed, to which I responded promptly "sorry, I didn't know." and put everything away in a matter of seconds. He continues to berate us saying there's a sign AND CAN'T YOU READ THE SIGN? Again, I had already put them away immediately to avoid a scene. The cashier mentioned to my husband that it's because it's a kosher restaurant. After a while he comes back and apologizes, which I appreciated. What really capped off this terrible experience was that he came out a third time to tell me that I can't even use the toddler plate that I brought with me for my 2 yr old to use, but he couldn't provide me with an alternative. My son ended up eating on a piece of paper and couldn't drink his water. Honestly, we couldn't wait to get out of there after paying $50+ for the meal and being yelled at unnecessarily. Both my husband and I had stomach aches at the end of the night. Read more

Quality of food is OK, but see the review pictures of the thick patties from 6 months ago? You're not getting those today. The patties are paper thin, but the quality and freshness of the ingredients is good. Good, fresh fries, but zero seasoning or salt. Wife ordered a burger ... with kosher beef-bacon and it seemed to come with a corned beef product instead. Expensive. Almost $50 for 1 burger and 1 combo. Cleanliness wasn't outstanding either. See pic of the napkin dispenser at the table. Pretty nasty. I had to use my knuckle on the water dispenser button at the machine as it was extra grimey. Not likely to return. Read more

Good food overall, with just a few tolerable problems. Chicken good, burgers tasty (although I don't recommend the vegetarian burger or the specialty burgers), decent onion rings. The salad we got for $10 was a disappointment. Venue is a bit chaotic and small (only three large tables and stools at a counter), plus ... some cleanliness concerns, but when things get busy and the place is full of kids what can you do? For Toronto kosher food it's certainly one of the top places to go, although that doesn't say much. Read more
