Gingerman Restaurant - Toronto, Ontario

A lot of people would call this type of restaurant a "greasy spoon" but I think that term is a great disservice to many a restaurant. Instead, I would say The Gingerman is a classic restaurant with honest food and simple service. I don't live in the area but was wanting ... breakfast and saw this place as i drove by. Since I enjoy this type of unpretentious mom & pop type places I knew it was best to turn around and give it a try. Serving sizes was generous and friendly staff. The place was not too busy when I arrived so service was quick and attentive with a comfortable atmosphere. Nothing fancy just honest food done traditionally (like they have done it for 40 or 50 years). Not sure about the choice of pictures on the walls. 90s corporate motivational type things. It's odd. I mean even going to a local second hand or garage sale for those landscape paintings have go to be better. In the end I would definitely recommend if you're looking for a classic Canadian breakfast in the east end of the city. Read more

I think we have found our go-to breakfast and brunch spot in the area. Service is phenomenal, prices are reasonable, food is tasty and portion sizes are generous. 10/10 from both my wife and I. We can't wait to try more things next time. 😁

Went to check this place out after a friend raved about it, and now I know why! All of their dishes are perfectly cooked, fresh, and made with love! Even their milkshake was creamy and not too sweet, unlike those you'll find in many other places. So next time you're ... feeling peckish and are near St. Clair and Victoria, don't let the drab-looking exterior fool you; this place puts all its effort into their food, which is why it's still a neighborhood staple after all these years!

A busy restaurant serving all day breakfast, lunch and dinner. Inside is quite busy and crowded, however the services are very friendly and fast. It’s having an old diner vibe, seatings are tight. We ordered: 1.Kids spaghetti with meat sauce 4/5 2. Ham and eggs breakfast 3/5 ( home fries are way ... too salty) Read more

The food was incredible! Huge portions and very delicious! The service was outstanding and the vibe there is SO positive. Highly recommend. WAY better than other all day breakfast places!!!! More value for your money and super nice people,
