Been here a few times and every single time was an excellent experience. This place gets super busy no matter what time and day of the week it is. Staff here are super friendly and the food is delicious. Brunch is very good here and the potatoes are bomb! It's also great for late night drinks and food but I like their brunch more. Definitely a place to go.
My date ordered Lorraine Benedict and I got citrus-spiked french toast. We had a wonderful experience! I must say, the setting is breathtaking. They have plants on the walls and fairy lights hanging from the ceiling, which I adore. They have the bathroom downstairs - it was modern and clean, which made me feel extra special.My french toast was light, fluffy, and incredibly tasty. The presence of a hint of citrus flavour was unexpected, but it worked well. The experience blew me away; it was wonderful!Our waiter was quite pleasant and helpful. As this is supposedly a popular brunch spot in downtown Toronto, it's quite busy. Otherwise, coming here was a pleasure!!
When I checked this place out I really wanted to get some brunch the food looked so good in the pictures. Unfortunately, I got there right before the start of the dinner menu. They had stopped serving brunch.The space has a nice ambiance. The timing was such that we were the only people there but it didn't feel strange. You know that feeling when you're the only person at a restaurant and you start to wonder if you made the right decision? If there was a reason no one else is there? Well this wasn't the case. Felt right at home.The food arrived relatively quick. Everything tasted absolutely incredible. The texture of the food was just right.You get the feeling that this place has more of a nightclub feel at night. I still want to go back and have brunch here ?I definitely recommend In-Somnia!
The house fries and salad that come with everything are really tasty! Eggs Benedict with tomato and avocado was just the right size - not over the top. $6 mimosas are a good deal. Will be back.
My friend and I had to wait for good 15 minutes for someone to come and take our order. Then good 45 minutes to get our food. Once we finished eating (in 20 minutes), we were asked to leave 15 minutes later because according to them, it had been a while.We would not have been sitting there for that long if the food was given to us sooner than 45 minutes.I will not be returning there again because of their slow service and time management skills.Food on the other hand was not bad. I ordered waffles and egg Benedict.
Really enjoyed my experience here! The ambiance was right and the food and drink were fantastic. The dark and stormy cocktail was well prepared and tasted refreshing. The chicken and waffles was incredibly well balanced. Just the right amount of sweetness from the syrup, the fried chicken wasn't greasy at all, and the slaw on top helped keep it vibrant.
Very comfortable place that doesn't have very loud music, it was a good place to go with a small group of friends to just eat and relax for the afternoon. The service was quick enough for those who need time to order. My food came hot and was a big portion for how much I paid but it was worth what I paid, I will definitely go back for another round of food and drinks
I was checking this place with a friend yesterday for lunch.Food was okI liked the chicken waffle more than a burger.To me, the burger was tasteless and chewy.The fries were perfect.Something annoying was the wait time from the time we ordered food. Same story with our bill.It took almost 1.5 hours for lunch.If you are really hungry or you are planning to go there during your lunch break, forget this place.
The food here is fantastic !!! Can’t never go wrong with the heuvos rancheros + French toast. Let’s talk about the service, ask for Scott (thank me later) he was so kind, attentive enough to treat you like a guest in his home but gave you enough space to make you feel like you’re at home. Loved him !!! Everyone from hosts upon arrival to staff dropping food off at the table, really gracious and helpful. I continue to come back to this restaurant as a first choice for brunch as often as I can because of the well rounded, exceptional service and wonderful experience. ❤️
Insomnia is a great place for brunch. I had the best chicken and waffles here — chicken was seasoned well and juicy and the waffle was great. One thing to keep in mind is that the maple syrup costs extra. Home fries are a staple!! Service was great too, will definitely be back!
