Tried the minestrone soup and had a sandwich there... was good for a mid-afternoon snack!

Frans on College is a good choice if you like diner food!

I think you'll enjoy Grazie and Tabule with the family. The pastas and desserts at Grazie are great... I would be overjoyed to order from that dessert menu as a kid! Tabule is fun to eat at, especially if the waiter does that little trick where he pours the water from way up high in those homemade jugs of theirs.

I wouldn't recommend Celestin... it's quite overpriced for what the food is, and I would even say it borders on pretentious.

I'd like to add Mariachi's (Mexican) to the list. It's a little south of Eglinton and their guacamole is good, and the kids will have fun eating out of that mortar and pestle they serve it in!

I second (or third) the New York Deli... the latkes there are the best!
And no, it's not new, been there a while... it's right across from the Manulife Centre.
