Over Easy Restaurant

Great little café attached to Hotel Victoria. Went for breakfast two days in a row. Day one I had the classic eggs Benedict which were quite good. Day two I had the Cajun spiced chicken eggs Benedict and those were very tasty as well. Hot fresh coffee and the hash browns were excellent.

Service is alright. I ordered the eggy cheesy thing for my mom… she was not impressed. I had the Californian, my avocado did not look fresh. The home fries were great !

Came here for breakfast. Had freshly squeezed orange juice, so good! Basic eggs, toast, bacon and hash browns for me. Hubby had Eggs in a Hole, very good as well! Our waitress Nicole was exceptional!

Went with family for brunch before Jays game. Great spot. Excellent food, laid back atmosphere and reasonably priced!

Stop in and have breakfast at Over Easy — you’ll like it. At first glance you’ll be wondering, «where the fudge is it?’ You gotta actually go thru the main entrance of the Hotel Victoria, walk by the small reception desk, and veer to your left to enter restaurant. I was staying at the hotel, so it didn’t matter to me. But I tell ya, while I sat in the lobby waiting on some friends on our way to a Blue Jays game, I bet I saw 10 – 15 people, stop, open the hotel lobby door, walk in, appear discombobulated, and turn around. Too bad for those schmos, cause they missed a good breakfast. Don’t make that mistake.
Over Easy has all you’d expect from a breakfast-​lunch counter. Good portions and fair prices. I’m from Chicago, and we have a million of these places, but this one holds up well. One day I had a traditional breakfast with over easy eggs, bacon, sausage, beans, fried, spuds, etc. And very good rye toast. On another morning I had hash with smoked meat, and tomatoes. Excellent choices both times. Very good coffee. The also have papers to read.
And one last reason to eat at Over Easy — it ain’t a chain, man. Avoid all the chain restaurants!

A very welcome find! After expensive hotel breakfasts and nothing in the union Station area — someone recommended this place! Can I just say THANK YOU!
It’s well priced bordering on cheap… The menu rocks and the staff were young, hip, and welcoming. Hmm ok maybe the host who seated us could have put his phone down — but all in all I strongly recommend this place!

I have been going here about once a month for brunch and it’s a reliable greasy spoon diner. It has all the breakfast essentials and standard drip coffee. Other reviews have said the service is lacking, but in my experience the servers come by so often for water and coffee that my glass was never empty. It may be a little hard to find if it is your first visit (it’s in the Hotel Victoria) but no complaints otherwise. Looking forward to more visits here in the future.

The service was great and friendly. The atmosphere is relaxing and quiet. The poached eggs bruschetta was amazing!

Had the best breakfast ever. Gotta do the Something Hammy Cheesy thing. Outstanding.
Wait staff… great people.

This is a decent breakfast place located within Hotel Victoria (head to the left after entering the hotel lobby). The overall vibe/​décor is very traditional and homestyle. I ordered the Big Breakfast which came with toast (2 full pieces cut in half), one single pancake, 2 eggs, a lot of bacon (choice of sausage or ham as well), a slice of tomato, baked beans and a whole lot of homefries. If you don’t like any of the sides, too bad because there are no substitutions. Even if you don’t want baked beans and just want another slice of tomato…
The pancake wasn’t very fluffy, which was disappointing (also glad I didn’t order a stack of pancakes). The bacon looks like it could’ve been grilled more colour-​wise but it was super crispy! Asked to eggs to be over easy and they came as requested. Homefries were done very nicely — they’re cooked with some onions, which gave it more flavour!
If you don’t see any of the spreads you want in the jar on the table for your toast, simply ask them! My table’s jar didn’t have peanut butter but they gladly brought me a couple packs.

I’m certainly a fan of the breakfast Poutine at Over Easy. For travelers, this is one of the nicest little breakfast places in downtown Toronto. Food is delicious and reasonably-​priced.

Cute décor.
Tip: you have to go into the hotel and then go to the left to find the restaurant.
I ordered the breakfast poutine and my sister ordered the breakfast burrito and we split it. Both were delicious with decent prices. It was a fun little find when we were starving and getting ready to go to the Hockey Hall of Fame.

Settled in for a leisurely breakfast while I awaited my (Cleveland) family to arrive for a gastronomic tour of the city.
I had heard good things about the breakfast poutine so I decided to give it a try. Coffee was good and flowing freely. When the dish first arrived I thought boy, this looks small, but upon further review it was incredibly filling. It was filled with potatoes, ham, bacon, cheese curds, (runny) eggs and topped with hollandaise sauce… a great mixture. The potatoes were diced small and fried giving them a french fry texture and crunch.
I also liked the fact that when I was served a side of toast, they asked if i wanted p4eanut butter for it (not normally done in the states) which was a nice touch, especially since i love peanut butter! I took her up on it.
My server was very accommodating and pleasant to chat with. A nice experience and a good meal. Hope to be back!

I got the skillet with eggs, sausage, bacon, peppers, onions… It was delicious and so filling! Can’t wait to come here next time I’m in Toronto.

To be honest, the place was decent, nothing too bad but a few issues.
First, this place isn’t easy to find, it’s inside the hotel Victoria. There is a sign outside but doesn’t really direct you.
Onto the food,
The good and the bad
I had Montréal smoked meat Benny. The sauce was delicous, the meat was good. It just kind of fell off at the actual egg. Not enough of run. Meh I can deal with it, overall it was good. It came with home fries, most places lack in this area. This place had good home fries, just the addition of onions was interesting, they weren’t overwhelmed the fries so that was good but I would avoid the onions. Between that and coffee and no mints is a recipe for bad breath.
The interesting.
They brought a jug of coffee when I ordered coffee, a convenience thing I assume. But I address that in my service part.
Lacking
Service was almost non existent. My waiter didn’t even drop by during the meal, another waitress filled my water when it was empty.
If it wasn’t for the pot of coffee that was brought to the table, I probably won’t have a more then a cup of coffee. But that shouldn’t replace service but add to it.
This place is okay but need work. I hate to be a group of 6 with that kind of service and being forced to pay 18%

Came here for Sunday brunch during my birthday trip to Toronto. We got to the restaurant around 10:20 and had to wait less than 5 minutes for a table.
Our waiter was very efficient and knowledgeable. The menu was very extensive and full of variety.
I ordered the vegetarian omelette which was very hearty and filling. The meal also came with home fries and toast.
For a total of $ 16 (including coffee) this meal was well worth it seeing as thought I did not eat again until 4pm

We stumbled upon this place after walking around looking for pancakes last weekend… ya, neither of us got the pancakes…
The place is cute! Its homey and cute, kind of reminds of the antique roadshow café’s we have back home. My guy got the breakfast poutine and I think he’s gonna put a ring on it. I’ve surely been replaced.
I got eggs, bacon and toast. The standard ‘Bev’. My food is always fine because I always order very basic things for breakfast.
Oh, they have booze! Why didn’t I lead with that? I know thats all you drunkie’s care about.

Nestled inside a boutique Queen Victoria Hotel, this place offers the best brunch menu! My favourite here is 2 eggs with small potatoes and 2 ginormous Chicken Sauseeeeeeege… the best sauseeeege in the down town core!

Nice homely restaurant with a coat rack for people going to work. It had nice pussy willow branches arrangement. Restroom was downstairs and took a long to get to! So if you really needed to go, make sure you start walking 5 minutes early!
The eggs bruschetta was a good dish (not worth 9.25 though!) The Western omelette was okay, not great.

I’ve been twice for breakfast. The last time I ordered the poach egg (medium) and it was nicely cooked. The yolk was still runny… makes me wonder if this is medium cooked poach egg!
The breakfast dishes come with home fries (which are nicely seasoned including onion and parsley flakes) and tomato and toast.
My complaint would be the expensive orange juice but I guess that happens when you stop drinking caffeinated drinks.
The restaurant was not busy (nor was it busy the last time I was there) and the service was friendly.
Would I return here out of my own volition? No.

We had breakfast just once there while we stayed for one week in the hotel Victoria. Breakfast is not that great. Afterwards we went to the Marché Restaurant near by, which offers by far the best breakfast.
