Don’t miss this authentically Israeli, delicious and neighborhoody hole in the wall. What it lacks in size, it makes up for in vibe, liveliness, and fabulous food. We had a table right next to the kitchen, which some would say is the worst seat in the house- here, it’s the best. While Chef was running through orders in his open kitchen, we were witness to the magic that makes this little diamond in the rough a real gem. At some points we felt like we were on the TV set of “The Bear”, but in the best possible way! Everyone was working cohesively to deliver the best Israeli food outside of Israel itself! The hummus, the shawarma and even the pickles transported me back to Tel Aviv. Chef was a real mensch- taking the time to talk to us after our meal and during. Truly a gift to Toronto.

The food here is amazing and excellent for sharing (especially for big groups). We ate on the outdoor back patio, which had a cool lowkey, casual vibe, and we ordered their famous roasted cauliflower, chicken shwarma, and a mezze platter. I would HIGHLY recommend the mezze as it comes with a wide variety of dips and warm pita and is a great sharing dish. Would 100% go back here!

Got to visit this middle eastern resto that serves eastern & european jewish dishes in a country chic decor!From the salatim, my fav dips were the classic hummus and garlic labneh w za’atar! They went so well w the soft pita and I loved the variety making it very fun to eat.I rly liked the challah french toast as I’m a sweets > savoury person when it comes to brunch and the spreads it came w made this dish heavenly! But I mean how can u go wrong with nutella haha.My bf and I overall enjoyed everything and we loved the vibes of their patio! I did want to try their famous whole roasted cauliflower which they only serve for dinner meaning I’ll have to be back again hehe <3

Great ambiance, and equally great Jewish/middle eastern fare. I recommend the platters; all the dips and sauces are great. Though I did find dishes were on the pricier side. Overall good experience.

Nice place. Awesome staff. Lovely atmosphere. Definitely worth a visit. I'd say the food has a touch of Indian tbh, find out for yourself. The cauliflower is tasty and you can do half so just ask. The chicken shwarma is delicious ..just ask for additional peppers:). Only one thing that was a bit of a turn off at the end, on the bill was a processing fee of $4.49? What's up with that? I get credit card companies charge a fee and if you want to pass that to customers, it's probably best to let them know vs. A surprise. They did remove it cuz I asked about it. The donut dessert was beyond delicious. Definitely a repeat .

Fat Pasha is so good it will definitely make you fat - you'll want to keep coming back for more! We shared a platter of all the dips for two and it was fresh,tasty, and filling. The labne and baba ghonoush were excellent. Also tried the desserts, which were just as impressive as the entrees.

Had a great meal at Fat Pasha. Garlic labneh and chicken shawarma. Nice patio and good service.

Limited menu, on the pricier side. But the lamb kofta and beans were absolutely delicious! We went without a reservation so didn't get a patio seating. But there will be a next time!

Amazing service and food!

My wife and I were planning to meet with a couple friends for dinner so we called and made a reservation for a Friday evening. We were coming from out of the city so it takes us some planning to get down there. We arrive at the restaurant to find that they are closed for an event. I called up the manager to ask why this happened and she claimed that she had no record of our reservation so there was nothing she could do. At that point I’m accepting the situation as employee incompetence, but about 10 minutes later my wife receives an email from the restaurant notifying us that our reservation has been canceled. Oddly enough, we didn’t give an email when we called, so I guess that our reservation magically showed up in their system. That means the manager completely lied to us - add that to the incompetence.
