Perfect patio dining opposite the Royal York station with a prix fixe lunch, good wines (by the glass as well) and attentive service. Pictured is a the alfresco seating area surrounded by nice foliage
Food excellent. Service spotty. Too many serving staff. Not co ordinated. One staff member not too friendly. Will be back again because the food is terrific.
We were there on New Years Eve and it was fabulous. Food is excellent (as always) and the service was great. Friendly staff and always very accommodating. One of our favourite restaurants. Colm and Rita

Went here last night to celebrate a friends birthday.
Atmosphere- Loved the patio. They don't allow reservations out there but we were glad we got a nice table outside. Surrounded in large plants you feel like you are in a tropical location. Great idea.
Food- It really was a hit or miss situation. 1) Caesar salad- Excellent dressing . There wasn't much in the line of anything other than the lettuce and dressing. That would have been better had there been more. 2) Arugula salad with warm mushrooms- Wow! Mushrooms are warm and the result is a fantastic salad. 3) Margharite Pizza- The sauce and cheese was good. Very thin crust. 4) Lobster stuffed ravioli- Fantastic. So much lobster Pasta and sauce was perfection. 5) Seafood fettuccine( special) Excellent and brimming with seafood ( clams, squid, mussels, shrimp ) 6) grilled calamari- bland and kind of rubbery. 7) Veal cannelloni- Sauce - nice flavour, but the veal was more like baby food ground with zero flavour. I wish I had ordered the cheese one instead ( first choice then for some reason I changed y mind) We also had a jug of the sangria- Lovely and the bread with balsamic and oil was a nice touch.
Service- Good . We were served quickly and we were allowed to wait and ask when we wanted the bill. Nothing like another couples review.
Impression- Quite expensive so i would order the arugula salad and lobster stuffed raviolis because it makes a difference to be disappointed by a meal for just a few dollars than it does when you are paying a pretty penny for this kind of place. I will go back because the lobster ravioli and arugula salad are both that good
Food is great, service is great, drinks are great. My family and I go there very often. Try the carbonara pizza, it's to die for!
I am writing this review as I'm finishing up a rather a great lunch at la veranda. I work around the neighborhood and I usually don't go out to eat but man this place offers great lunch menu and price is just right. 12 dollars tax inc. For a full sized meal with a choice of one appetizer of many really is a great deal. The waitress delivers a pretty nice service and the patio area looks clean I would love to try it with my co-workers very soon.
Wait staff was engaging, fun. Veal dishes were great, pasta and veggies very fresh. Prices reasonable. Glad we didn't read the other reviews about this restaurant before going, that may have changed our minds. We were even quite underdressed for this restaurant, wait staff treated us with the utmost respect.
Re previously submitted comments from "cestmoicg". Pretentious people like you give bad impressions of others. La Veranda is an exceptional restaurant!!!! The food is perfection, the wait staff professional and courteous, the owners are two of the most lovely people around! They are attentive and polite to us every time we and everyone we know go there!! MAYBE IT WAS YOU AND YOUR GROUP'S ATTITUDE Who do you think you are? You had lunch with 13 other pretentious women at a restaurant, so what? Do you think your feet should be kissed just because you spent money there?? Re-read your comment and look at it from another's perspective...what do you think? How do you sound? SPOILED?? SELF-CENTRED?? Who spends $50/person on lunch for A BABY SHOWER??? PRETENTIOUS!!! Get over yourself

ITALIAN FOOD AT ITS BEST. Tried it once and I loved how rich their food is! price , service unmatchable , and a rich taste you can only find in Italy! . I frequent there foten and I must in all honestly recommend it to every food lover. Take my word it's too good and you can tell they make it from their heart something you won't find around, thumbs up they're to good! and they cater!
