Green Papaya - Toronto, Ontario

Fun place for casual, unplanned dinner out. We really appreciated the staff, always friendly and open to help and adjust plates to certain allergies. I really love their fried cassava. Amazing papaya with vanilla ice cream and liquor dessert.

Amazing food, we only had the appetizers...their Enoki Beef and Japanese dumplings were out of this world. Great imperial prawns, tornado fried shrimps, fried chicken and seaweed salad. Good and very friendly service. Would definitely recommend to all.

Cassava and caipirinha very good! The traditional places were okay. They were missing the real Brazilian Taste. Staff was very kind once he noticed that we having a bday dinner he gave us a cake. And it was delicious!

I'm forever disgraced for coming to this restaurant. I had many friends like "there's this new restaurant serving Brazilian food, you should go" and I never cared much. Being a Brazilian myself it was obvious a Chinese guy would ruin my mother land food. I was wrong... Went there yesterday and ... realized the Chinese guy can cook better Brazilian food than I ever will, than any Brazilian-run restaurants in town, than most native people I know. The beans were so well seasoned, the yuca in my Vaca Atolada was super tasty and infused with that delicious gravy from the bone marrow. Even the thinly sliced fried potatoes were amazing! While I was there I thought about my mother's cooking and how I used to love it. Not anymore. This morning I send her a message stating that for as long as this stablishment is open, I'll never go back Brazil and that I was over her food. Please, take my advice and don't go to this restaurant, it may spoil any previous experience you had and even your family relationships. Heartbreaking! Read more

The restaurant was clean and nicely decorated. Has a fancy feel to it. We got the 3 course Dinner for $20ea. I got the only vegetarian options on the menu (of that 3 course dinner). My meal was very plain (the mango salad and the greens) there was no sauce to ... it at all. I felt like I could have done it at home. My husband's dish was tastier but the sauce tasted like it was from a jar. I hope not. The food was all fresh, I'll give it that. And the customer service was joyful and kind. I'd give this place another shot but with a stand alone dish. Read more
