Junked Food Co. - Toronto, Ontario

Macaroni and cheese is my favourite dish in the whole world, so when I had it with fries it was still delicious!! It was empty when I went but everyone was very friendly. I think the portion size is really large for the price too. Very filling and good for ... sharing! Read more

Pros: Good location along a busy street of restaurants and businesses. Pretty good marketing to get you in the door. Cons: Limited menu items for a restaurant premise of offering junk food (the possibilities of which are endless), service could be improved (our server was quite brash). Food left much to ... be desired - tried the birthday waffle and found it to be cold and soggy. The cookie dough did not really taste like anything and was very overpowering - least favorite part of the dish. Junked Food Co has done a splendid job marketing themselves to the city but all that hype has made it difficult for them to meet the expectations of their customers. I was disappointed in the dish I tried, and have spoken to other people who share my sentiments. And I really wanted to like this place. Would I come back? Probably not, unless they come up with something new and exciting (and maybe involving churros). Read more

Got the birthday waffle with the cookie dough. As much as I love sprinkles there was an excessive amount of them in the cookie dough that you couldn’t taste any flavour. The waffle itself was good but the running white chocolate and whipped cream made it soggy pretty fast. When ... they say gummies on the waffle it’s literally just 4 Swedish berries. For 9 bucks it is not worth it, only ate half between two people and then chucked it. Wouldn’t come back. Much better dessert places elsewhere Read more

Taste: 4 Service: N/A Value: 2 Presentation: 5 Overall: 3.7 rounded up to 4 Hi and welcome to another episode of javing it with Javier. Let's see what we are javing today. Today, I will be reviewing the meat monster deep dish pizza and the tacho smash bag. My girlfriend told me this place serves ... better deep dish than the one in Chicago but that seems pretty hard to beat because I really enjoyed Chicago deep dish. Anyway, let's dive right into the review. We were given the taco smash bag first because the deep dish pizza takes approx 20 min to prepare. Tater tots were sprinkled on top of a layer of cheese, lettuce and tomatoes, with a final layer of Doritos underneath. It was jam packed with flavour while the crunchiness of the Doritos underneath complemented it very well. Although it tasted quite good, the bag wasn't very big and would make a good appetizer as opposed to an entree. Then the deep dish came. The crust was nicely cut and pepperoni on top was slightly crisped. I was a huge fan of the slices being pre-cut into equal sizes unlike some pizza places *cough cough pizza pizza*. As I pulled the first piece out, the strings of cheese stayed attached to the pizza. The crust was very crispy and while I really enjoyed the cheese and pepperoni, I felt like the pulled pork didn't fit well with the pizza. Note that this is a self serve place. So the service rating is as good as how you're willing to serve yourself ;) (my girlfriend said I was an average server so she would have given me a 3, I beg to differ but I may be slightly biased). I have therefore decided that a service rating was N/A. I feel like the smash bag was too small to warrant $8. The pizza on the other hand looks pretty small, but shouldn't be underestimated. The pizza is very filling for its size. For $13 it is slightly overpriced but will be more than enough to fill one person up. Overall I really enjoyed my meal here. Is the deep dish better than Chicago's? No, I can't say that, but it was still very good overall. And that's it for today's episode of javing it with Javier. And remember food is life. Read more

Had the birthday cake cookie dough and the cookie donut. The cookie dough is good but tastes a bit more like flour then creamy. It's still good but maybe share one as I got a sugar rush/ stomach ache half way through. It's a fun treat to try but ... not something to have often. The cookie donut was ok. It was drapped in peanut butter, so if your not crazy about peanut butter maybe it's not for you. The cookie on the bottom was good but the donut was a bit dry. There are many other savoury options too. It's just like eating at the CNE. Read more
