Eastside Social

The food here is pretty good, the vibes were chill and servers were nice. The place is a but dark and kinda small with not much seating. We got the fish and chips, oxtail risotto and burrata. Everything was super delicious, fish and chips were light crispy not soggy at all, risotto was super creamy and flavourful with the oxtail, burrata was also very tasty. Will definitely come here again to check out their other items on the menu.

Cozy romantic atmosphere, interesting menu full of unique flavours and great friendly service. The Kung Pao Broccoli, Pork Belly and Ceviche were all delicious highlights. Will definitely come back!

I just love this place so much!! Went there with my friend who highly recommended this place and now I know why she love this place so much. Good food, good drinks, good vibes, and good people! My new fav place ;)

I have dined here multiple times for brunch, lunch and dinner and the service and food have always been amazing. My husband and I recently hosted a private event at this restaurant which went perfectly, we got endless compliments from our guests as to the food, drinks and quality of the wait staff. The owner Joey was exceptional and made sure our event went off without a hitch. Overall all of my experiences here have been positive and I would recommend Eastside Social to anyone!

Made a reservation here for my dad's bday. It took a while to get seated, however, we did arrive a tad early for our reservation. Once seated, you have to scan a QR code for the menu (would have preferred paper menus). The vibes of the dining room were the study of an interesting and worldly person, with a cozy decor, bookcases and fishing decor (but a modern touch). The food we ordered was on the smaller size for portion size however the food was delicious. The server was nice and was able to provide a dessert free of charge for my dad. We will be coming back here for sure! (P.S. 2 for 1 oysters on Wednesdays!)

Great restaurant. The food is amazing and beautifully presented. Really enjoyed the sea bass ceviche, the broccoli and the calamari! Lovely covered and heated back patio. The staff were very welcoming and friendly, they treat you like family as soon as you walk on the door. A leslieville institution!

We had a fantastic experience at the Eastside Social. Our party of 4 didn’t have a reservation on a Friday night and the busy Eastside social was so accommodating and lovely. We had drinks by the bar while we waited for a table to become available and boy, let me tell you- they were so good! Dinner was fantastic, definitely order the eggplant crisps! The olives were nostalgic, tasted just like my uncles olives from Italy. Our mains (pictured) were very satisfying, big portions, and had so much flavour. Service was exceptional and so friendly - going above and beyond! Not to mention when we left, they still remembered our name. We would definitely recommend the Eastside Social and can’t wait to come back! Thanks for having us!

Tl;dr - wonderful food, great service, fantastic patio and ambiance. Ended up with a full blown 3-course meal during a Saturday evening dinner. The burrata was absolutely to die for -- with the perfect mixture of grapes, pesto, nuts and EVOO! The seabass ceviche was slightly heavier than most ceviche but flavourful, tangy, perfectly acidic and a hint of sweetness to break up the monotony. For mains, we tried the shiitakii bowl and the PEI Mussles . Both were hearty and plentiful with lots of flavour! Mussles were fresh and the garlic wine sauce had nice heat which went well with the bread. Finally, we tried both desserts, neither of them 'wowed' us but they were both well executed. The flour less chocolate cake was dense, chocolatety but after a few bites, it was hard to finish as it lacked a bit of acid to cut the sweetness. The eastside mess was lighter, the chantilly cream was delightful with the berries, but missed out a bit on a fuller umami flavour. Overall, loved the restaurant and the entire experience!
