It’s hard to find Portuguese restaurants (why? We need more in Toronto). The food was incredible. It was my second time here a d the second time I ordered the squid salad - it’s a must. We had delicious wine, seafood rice, chicken and the best dessert I’ve had in a while. You need to finish off your meal with the malasada. I can’t wait to go back. Service was also excellent. The staff is welcoming and provided us with recommendations. Thank you!

My retired friends and I love it here. Great food and service...and a cool vibe. We hate the corporate restaurants downtown. Union is so cobbled together and we love it...kudos to the chef and staff..

    One of my favourite restaurants in Toronto! The food is consistently excellent, but what really makes Lunch Lady stand out is the exceptional service and genuine hospitality. I brought my mother here for her birthday, and the staff went above and beyond to make the occasion special. They even took a Polaroid photo of us and gave it to her as a keepsake. Such a thoughtful and personal touch! What I appreciate most is the atmosphere the staff creates. Everyone is warm, welcoming, and genuinely happy to help. It feels less like visiting a restaurant and more like being welcomed into someone's home. Great food brings you in, but it's the people and hospitality that make you want to come back. Highly recommend!

    Liliana is easily one of my favourite restaurants in Toronto, and the pasta alone is enough to make me want to keep coming back. The atmosphere is cozy and intimate, and the service is genuinely 10/10. The servers are incredibly knowledgeable, and the hostesses are warm and attentive. Honestly, everyone seems to take real pride in what they do, which makes the entire experience feel that much more special. As for the food, the carpaccio is a must-order, along with the brown butter pasta with caviar and their seasonal cappelletti. The steak and stuffed chicken wings are also well worth trying. for dessert, the banana tiramisu is a go too but other tables were raving about the other 3 desserts on the menu so I don’t think u can go wrong with dessert. Between the food, the atmosphere, and the incredible service, Liliana really a top restaurant in Toronto. The chef shook everyone’s hands after their dessert and asked us how the food was. I am very impressed with this restaurant and I can’t wait to go back !!I

    We came for the octopus but left with much more! The service was fantastic. We really appreciated the sommelier and the server, and their recommendations. Thanks for a great end to our night :)
