Hazel’s Diner - Toronto, Ontario

I ordered food here for the first time ever despite the recent number of negative reviews saying the service and/or food quality has gone down since (someone here mentioned) ownership changes. I had breakfast takeout - eggs, bacon, toast and hash. They prepared it perfectly medium, bacon was medium crisp, hash ... was SO SO good and their hot sauce which I think is house made was perfection. I drove 10 minutes back to work to sit and eat and everything was still warm. The host/server was kind and took care of me right away. I only take off one star because a very important detail was forgotten in the to go bag- cutlery! All condiments were generously added to the bag except the cutlery was missing. I can’t say enough times the annoyance one faces when they order food to go, they get to their destination hungry and ready to eat and cutlery is missed. Where are you going to scramble to look for that when you’ve already left the restaurant and there’s none around? So, for that I give a 4/5. It won’t stop me from giving my business in the future, but… judging from everything else I’m reading, the inconsistencies just need to be improved because there is a loyal customer base who are used to a certain level of service and care 🩷 Cant wait to try Hazels Hash next!

So happy with our Sunday brunch experience at this local diner. The staff were friendly and attentive. The food was tasty. The prices were fair.

New to the area my fiance and I were looking to try this spot for an authentic diner experience. We were delightfully surprised, from service to food it was all so wonderful. Can't recommend enough from the cozy comfort vibe, person able service and all day breakfast. Really made the ... day. Read more

Hazels is anything but your average diner! The staff and food were amazing. I hosted a brunch for my mom’s birthday for 16 guests and the table was prepped nicely for my guests. We had the honour of meeting the chef and owner. He was super friendly and accommodating and ensured we ... enjoyed our meal. He put on some music so we could have an upbeat atmosphere and also turned on the heat as it was super cold that day. The food was amazing, everyone who attended had countless compliments. The portions were hefty and the flavour was great as everything was seasoned well. Tea and coffee refills came around often so no one had an empty cup. As well, their mimosas were very yummy! We brought in our own dessert- for allergy reasons, the staff willingly offered to take it to the kitchen to keep it cold for us until we were ready to serve. They cleaned up the table and prepped us for dessert with small forks and plates. Dessert was brought out with a candle and a fruit rosette tower. They even played a happy birthday song for the whole diner to sing along to! To continue the celebration, our table was given a round of limoncello shots on the house! This was definitely an unforgettable experience! Hazel’s has the most attentive and accommodating staff members and this truly was the highlight of my mom’s day. Thank you Hazel’s for a great service, meal and experience. We will definitely be there again soon! Read more
