Euro-trip. Went for the first time last night (where else would you go on St Patricks day than a schnitzel house??)
The food was great, schnitzel with mushrooms and onion, my mate had the hunter both of which were generous and very tasty, the owners were very friendly, nice earthy feel to the place, will go again
Delicious Schnitzel. Four of us just dined for the first time at the Gourmet Schnitzel House. The menu is simple but very tasty and well prepaared. The goulash soup is a meal in itself and the schnitzel is crispy yet not greasy. Our hosts were very attentive and hospitable. We will definitely be back!!!
Best Schnitzel of my life!. Utterly lean, juicy, cooked exactly done, 1/8" thick absolutely even, pounded (marks visible) slice of pork. Crust tasting of well-browned good-quality bread crumbs, s+p & neutral fat, stayed shatteringly crisp to the last bite. Fully enveloping the meat, NOT adherent, gummy or greasy. A Schnitzel that cannot be improved upon!
Accompanying 2 scoops of potato salad (by request - menu offers "potato mixed with fried onion OR rice"): diced potato, pickle, onion, peas, copious tangy creamy dressing, good tho' not my personal favorite variation. Large slice each of carrot & cucumber to fill the plate.
Would recommend, perhaps once business picks up, a (seasonal) selection of traditional East-Central European sides: Spatzle, potato dumplings, mashed potatoes, home fries, Boston lettuce with o+v or cream dressing, cucumber+sour cream salad, grated carrot salad, green bean salad, red cabbage salad, cole slaw, sauerkraut, cauliflower w browned crumbs?
Attractive European bistro decor & background (not conversation-disrupting!) music (CBC2?). Immaculately clean.
Concerned that my friend & I were the only patrons Friday lunch-time - want them to succeed as we haven't had a place to eat schnitzel since our previous go-tos in Thorold & Grimsby closed years ago.
Terrific!. We're so happy to have found this gem run by the owners of the former Corvina, also on Kingston Road. The schnitzel is amazing and the goulash is great!
Great Value. Recommended by a friend, tried it last week. Schnitzel was excellent - and generous portion. Was the authentic European style - not fast food style as in most places.
Would not hesitate to recommend - excellent value and quality. Will be going back soon.
Best Schnitzel in Toronto. I've never written a review before but after going to The Gourmet Schnitzel House I thought I had to. It just opened up at Danforth and Kingston Rd (2286 Kingston Road) and man are they good. Authentic Hungarian schnitzel that fills your plate (you'll probally have to ask for a doggie bag to take some home) Crispy and oh so tasty, just like I used to get in Europe and a meal can be under $10. The Goulash soup is also amazing. Everything is authentic and homemade, it really reminds you of being in Europe. The owners used to have a restaurnt , Corvina, wich was further down Kingston Rd. Try it once and your sure to go back, just like me.
