Reviews for White Lily Diner in Toronto, ON
Very friendly staff and really delicious food! I tried the hot turkey and my friend tried Ruben. Both very delicious Hot turkey... comes with French toast and cranberries with smoked turkey. Really loved it. They don?t take reservations and although we wentat 2:00 there was a line up and waiting time of 30 mins which is expected because they are very popular. But please plan for thewait.

This restaurant do offer some yummy comfort food with friendly service. The menu item offer quite a selection with lots of... veggie dish, which is our preference for brunch! Nice to have something different. I do like their ?Caesar? salad, instead ofromaine lettuce, it?s all Kale! Time to eat some different kind of of veggie ! ???? We also tried the green salad, and they arefresh and taste good as a typical salad. The tomato toast is quite well made. I heard they make their own bread so the toast isgood and goes well with the different kinds of tomatos, basil, cream cheese(I guess?) . The burger was the best. Freshly madepatty with a sweet relish like sauce , best of all the dishes I tried today in my opinion!! And then we tried the dessert, it?sa gluten free (flourless?) dessert and when I eat it, it feels quite light and not too heavy! All in all, it was a great andenjoyable brunch here!! Read more
Wow! It's rare when you get such a perfect experience -- incredible service, lovely ambience and spectacular food! Went for... breakfast/ brunch this morning and we were blown away. Service is friendly, attentive but not obtrusive - amazing server! Thefood is such a stand out. Started with the biscuits with homemade jam and butter. Egads! Each component was delicious - thebiscuits are large, fluffy and with a hint of pepper. Also tried the daily donuts - crueller and cinnamon sugar. Both weredelicious but the crueller was epic. We ordered the southern breakfast - grits were creamy and so flavorful. Eggs, bacon andfermented greens were all a highlight on the dish. Also ordered the pancakes with sausage. Both delicious and such a treat tohave a homemade sausage. Pancakes are so flavorful! Had to take leftovers home. Highly recommend - White Lily Diner is doing itright! Can't wait to return for lunch nland dinner. Read more
This is a fabulous place, everything on their menu is just fabulous. They have their own farms so everyone is farm fresh and... fantastic. Their prices are also quite reasonable. Highly recommended the pastrami sandwich, the Steak and eggs, the Meatloafdinner, Hot Turkey.. honestly you can't go wrong with anything here.. also they make fabulous donuts. Read more
Ordered the Hot Turkey and White Lily Diner. Hot turkey was the bomb. Very tender with a lot of sauce. The White Lily was a... typical breakfast sausage and egg combo. The size is a good snack. The toast is crispy and hashbrowns are homemade. Theatmosphere is quiet and homey. We went on a Thursday at 5pm, just a couple of people dining. Overall, a great place to try andespecially if you want home cooked meal. Read more
This may be one of the best places I've ever eaten. The food was phenomenal. The freshness and quality were top notch. I enjoyed... the Southern Breakfast and a mimosa and both were so tasty. The dessert special was a mousse which was delicious, the caramelsauce was so divine I'd drink a litre. The service was also wonderful, very friendly and attentive. Worth the price to get anincredible meal and experience. Read more
Wanted to try this place forever & I was expecting it to be good but the Ruben was next level. It?s a massive filling sandwich... with tons of meat and amazing condiments topped with fresh toasted bread. As someone who typically doesn?t love potato salad thesweet potato salad is next level and made me a believer. Donuts weren?t the softest but flavour was good and I went at 1pm so Iunderstand why.

If you're in the mood for a hefty breakfast and are willing to pay up a bit for it, White Lily is for you. This is a hugely... popular place rain snow or shine, so get there when it opens if you can. Stopped by for breakfast and got: - Meatloaf Dinner:Meatloaf had an almost steak-like taste to it which I loved. Generous on the gravy, grits abd mushrooms. The star though wasthat airy-chewy-crispy buttermilk biscuit. - Southern Breakfast: Straightforward poached eggs, bacon and grits. It had thatdelicious buttermilk biscuit again, but I'd probably try something else. - Donuts: Tried the coffee-baileys andchocolate-orange. Both were a bit denser than I would've liked, but that's just my personal preference. Service was superfriendly and efficient. Place had a nice causla vibe to it. Was pricey but not ridiculously so. Overall, I can see why WhiteLily draws crowds early and often. A fun spot for brunch, whatever time of the day. Read more
