Aziza Cafe

My go-​to café, both for a great americano and a delicious all-​day breakfast (the Full Aziza) or lunch. The baked goods are always yummy and they often have a healthy twist.

my favourite place for brunch! SUCH nice servers, great owners and very talented chef! huge portions, fresh ingredients, they even make this beautiful pink chili hot sauce in house. eggs portuguese are to die for! delicious elevated home cooking.

We were in town for a long weekend and we were looking for a breakfast when we drove past this wonderful small restaurant. We were staying downtown and most of the other places were impossible to even get in without an hour wait or more. The food and service was great. Each breakfast plate had something we didn’t expect. Both egg dishes had fresh fruit, a small salad with pomegranate seeds (yes, salad on breakfast plate), black beans and home fries. We had one order of pancakes for our daughter which came with fruit. These things were more than garnish and made each meal exceed our expectations. The Eggs Benedict came on home made toasted bread. One order was the Eggs Portuguese with Chorizo. We also one regular with ham and Hollandaise sauce. The eggs were perfectly cooked.
The service was attentive and polite. We will be back!

This place is fantastic. I had the Canadian omelette. Serving sizes were big and great prices. Loved the house made bread. Healthy and fresh! I’ll be back!

We go here for breakfast all the time! All the breakfast sandwiches are amazing and for lunch you have to try the chicken, avocado and brie sandwich. The home made hot sauce is out of this world! You’ll want to eat it with a spoon.

This is the perfect breakfast place. It’s relaxed, and totally unpretentious. The service was prompt and friendly, and the food delicious. Everything was very fresh and flavourful, they obviously care about the quality of their food. Great fresh bread and home-​made hot sauce. Good size portions at a fair price. I’ll definitely be back.

All the places in my favorite neighbourhood were closed so while doing the laundry I wanted a bite for lunch, I try to eat mindfully, organic with health in mind. I am a very good cook who values quality food and quality ingredients. The menu was not enticing and the selections were not creative and left me lamenting that I sat down but I thought I might order a veggie sandwich, I asked the waiter about the bread and the said «a loaf of homemade whole wheat». When the order arrived it was so gross, it was cream cheese and underripe tomatoes and thick red onion on a crudely made pita. I said to the server «You said it was a homemade loaf of bread» and they said, «yup this is it“I nicely let them know I did not want to eat this as the quality was sub-​par and not what I was told I was getting. They then charged me for something I did not eat and I threw it away and left.
This place is good for college kids with no cooking skills, or food quality knowledge.

The food here tastes great. I’ve only visited twice since moving down the street, but both times have been exceptional. The service is not super fast, but that’s ok. I enjoyed my downtime from a busy day while waiting for my food.
I ordered the chicken brie avocado sandwich with mushroom soup. It was pretty amazing. I love supporting the little guys, and Aziza has made the list for me to return in the future.

The Canadian eggs benny were perfection. Beans, like I’ve never had them done, along with crispy potato, and pomegranate sprinkled spinach made my day. Had a sunny and relaxed brunch here, which I hope to relive again :)

I don’t know what happened to my favourite breakfast place :(
Used to love it here but this time everything was so disappointing. I ordered fresh OJ but what I got had chunks of banana in it and made me wonder if they accidentally made me a smoothie or if they didn’t clean the remnants of a banana smoothie out of the blender/​juicer beforehand. When the food finally came after waiting just shy of 40 minutes, my omelette, usually a pretty fair size was, looked like it was made of a single egg, and was completely raw in the inside. The breakfasts usually come with baked beans, this time the beans must have been spooned out of their soup of the day because my home fries were sitting in a pool of broth with pieces of tomato skins. The home fries are usually spiced well and delicious but this time they were pretty burnt, and tasted like old fryer oil. My boyfriend loves the bread because they bake it there but this bread was more like stale rye bread, hard as a rock. We’re both pretty bummed out because Aziza is our usual breakfast spot, the last time we tried to get breakfast, the restaurant was more full than usual and everyone was sitting with menus as the one waitress flailed about, we went unnoticed and decided we were better off elsewhere. I’m thinking that going elsewhere might unfortunately be a permanent solution.

Our go to breakfast joint every Saturday and Sunday! Sometimes a Monday too! Amazing food and lovely family run independent café

Every time the food has been delicious and the staff have been extremely accommodating. They also have a homemade hot sauce that is out of this world.

Don’t get where the good reviews are coming from. But I have long learned most people cannot tell good breakfast from bad. I had a very disappointing experience. Although the staff was pleasant and the atmosphere was nice, the food was underwhelming. The taste of my Eggs Medaline (smoked salmon Bennie) was bland, my homefries were cold, not even a bit warm. My friend’s beans came way after she was done with her eggs, what was the point of bringing them at all? We also ordered french toast to split for dessert and they brought it at the same time as the eggs. Why in the world would you do that without asking? The french toast was obviously too cold to enjoy it by the time we got to it and the home made bread they used for it was way too dense — this restaurant clearly does not know what french toast is supposed to taste and feel like. I really wanted to like this place, but I just can’t. How do you mess up something so simple and basic as breakfast?! I wont be back that’s for sure.

Great space to hang out in. Food was stellar. Service was relaxed. They let me stick around longer to work on a Saturday afternoon without a hint of concern. Fantastic addition to the neighbourhood. Try the BLT and ask for roasted potatoes. Great value at $ 8.95. Can’t beat it!

Loved this place. Staff is super friendly and helpful. I had an Iced Green Ginger Tea. It was delicious. Comfortable booths, it’s a great place to get some writing done. Food looked and smelled amazing. Will definitely come back to try the food!

Always delicious and freshly made food. Healthy and homely. Would highly recommend it. Everyone is very friendly and they appreciate your business which a lot a places in Toronto don’t !! Looking forward to my next visit. .

Lord Jesus. I feel awful writing this but holy shit. I think the owner has her daughter waitressing. She’s maybe 16? She’s literally ruining their business. I was there with a friend, there were about 5 other tables. EVERY SINGLE table was frustrated. No water, no silverware, smoothies came after the food AND they’re disgusting, huge thick undrinkable if you get coconut milk in it. Asked for hot sauce literally 6 times. Friend ordered bread w her food when we first placed the ordered, we had to ask 3 more times for it and when it did arrive it was garlic bread, very strange to assume someone wants garlic bread if they ask for toast.
Waited 50 mins for food and 25 for cheque. Sandwich was coated in goat cheese which isn’t a good cheese to overdo it with. Salmon salad is so good but they have to ditch the orange slices. I can tell the lady that owns this place is trying her best which is why I gave it two stars but it’s unbearable in there and I’d only get that salad as take-​out now.

I checked out this place for lunch with my brother a few days ago. We had both worked out at the Y nearby and were STARVING so we decided to try it and I was really pleased !
The choices were super healthy which was great considering that we had just spent the morning working out at the gym. We both tried the avocado, brie and chicken sandwiches with spinach and mandarin side salad. The food was great and the family that owns this place was really personable and friendly.
We were a little hesitant right off the bat as the first waitress waited quite awhile to come by with menus but it was definitely worth the wait and the prices were definitely reasonable for what what we got.
Check this place out if you get a chance! Try the juice bar if you get a chance as well. I decided against it at the time but my brother tried it and said it was great.
Very impressed with the service overall despite the little shaky start, will go back again!

The eggs Benedict were flawless and every ingredient could be tasted, even the strawberries served on the side.
The avocado, goat cheese, sun dried tomatoes and eggplant were a breath of fresh air from eating meat all the time.
Nice atmosphere. Had to wait for our food a little bit, but it was worth it.

This place opened in the old Kubata spot and in the interest of trying new things in the neighbourhood, stopped in for brunch a couple weeks back.
The menu is made up of some classic egg/​meat/​potato plates, omelettes, lunch friendly sandwiches, and baked goods which sit on display at the front counter and appear to be baked in house.
To summarize based on my experience:
–very fresh food! Everything seemed made fresh to order, but with that be prepared to wait for it (we waited at least a half hour for our breakfast although it seems like timing was not on our side as there were 2 tables ahead of us who were seated and ordered, and only 1 person in the kitchen)
–cool points for fair trade coffee, but failure points for the fact it wasn’t actually very good tasting.
2 breakfasts, an orange juice and a coffee = around $ 26 after tax, before tip. Seems like a fair price and choice to make if you’re not in a rush, might just have to ask for something other than the standard house coffee next time.
