IKEA Etobicoke

I recently visited the IKEA location in Etobicoke and had a very positive experience from start to finish. The store is well organized, clean, and easy to navigate, with clear signage that makes finding specific departments simple even during busy hours. Staff members were friendly, approachable, and knowledgeable, especially in the kitchen planning area, where they patiently answered our questions and offered practical suggestions. What impressed us most was how convenient the products are for everyday customers. We purchased four kitchen cabinets along with all the related components, and everything fit comfortably into our small car. The flat-pack design was truly efficient, saving us time, effort, and the cost of arranging a larger vehicle or delivery. Loading was straightforward, and checkout moved quickly despite the store being quite busy. The Etobicoke location also has ample parking and a smooth flow through the warehouse section, making the entire shopping process stress free. Overall, this IKEA delivers exactly what it promises: functional design, smart packaging, reasonable prices, and a customer friendly experience. We left feeling confident about our purchase and excited to assemble our new kitchen cabinets at home. I would definitely recommend the IKEA Etobicoke location to anyone looking for practical, well designed furniture solutions. It truly exceeded our expectations and made our shopping day enjoyable.

whenever I go here I spend 3+ hours.. 💀 my legs are dead but the food is still nice 😋 but making the furniture after takes so long 😭😭basically a whole day thing atp-

The restaurant is always full, the food is a hit and miss. Gravlax may or may not be served at n the weekend. The hot food is is just warm and by the time you get to eat them they are already cold. The return was good because I always make an appointment and go first thing in the morning. The return is seamless. Washrooms are disgustingly dirty on weekends and it smells. The staff at the office area are just amazing and very helpful with all my questions. There are a lot of discounted items.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 – Always an Inspiring Experience at IKEA Etobicoke Every time I visit IKEA ETOBICOKE, I’m filled with the same sense of wonder and awe as if I’m seeing it all for the first time. Their display rooms are truly magical. Each space feels like walking into a fully lived-in home — thoughtfully dressed from the big pieces like furniture and appliances, all the way down to the tiniest finishing touches that complete the theme. What I love most is how EVERY CORNER TELLS A STORY. The way they combine textures, colours, lighting, décor, and practical storage solutions always sparks new ideas. Whether you’re redesigning a room or just browsing, you leave inspired. A special mention to HASAN for his AWESOME CUSTOMER SERVICE and SUPPORT. Thank you for turning our stress into a very satisfying customer experience! Your patience, professionalism, and genuine care made all the difference. Thanks to ATHAR for expediting finding the right stuff. Thanks to JOSH who helped locate a fellow to help us load the heavy furniture all while Josh was attending to other customers at the self-checkout counter. GOOD CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE MAKES ALL THE DIFFERENCE. The store is spacious, clean, and well-organized, and the staff are consistently helpful and approachable. It’s more than just a shopping trip — it’s an experience that fuels creativity and makes home design feel exciting and achievable. Btw, all our furniture, kitchen stuff, workstation, beddings and misc. items are from IKEA! IKEA kept me busy, productive and engaged during the pandemic. I’d order online and pick-up my stuff. I learned to assemble many things! ❤️ Always a pleasure to visit. Highly recommended! #BecauseServiceMatters 💯 #IKEAEtobicoke #IKEACanada #HomeDecorInspo #InteriorDesignIdeas #FurnitureShopping #CustomerServiceExcellence #HomeMakeover #ModernLiving #TorontoShopping #DesignInspiration #SupportLocal

IKEA Etobicoke has become my go-to destination for everything home — from furniture and décor ideas to family meals and weekend browsing. It’s more than just a store; it’s a full-day experience that blends smart design, affordability, and convenience. 🛋️ Store Layout & Experience The showroom layout is perfectly designed for inspiration. Each section feels like walking through real homes — from cozy studio setups to large family spaces. The signage is clear, making it easy to navigate, and the shortcuts are handy if you already know what you need. The design displays always give me new ideas for organizing my apartment or refreshing a corner. 🍽️ Restaurant & Food Section The restaurant upstairs is one of the highlights. It’s spacious, clean, and well-organized even on busy weekends. The Swedish meatballs and salmon dishes are always consistent, and the kids’ meals are both affordable and filling. I also love grabbing a soft-serve ice cream or cinnamon bun on the way out — it’s become a small family ritual after every visit. 🛒 Product Range & Quality IKEA’s range at this location is impressive. Most items are well stocked, and staff are usually quick to check inventory in the back if something is missing. I’ve purchased everything from desks and chairs to kitchenware and lighting, and the quality has always been excellent for the price. Their new sustainable and bamboo collections are also worth checking out. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Family & Kids-Friendly It’s a great outing for families. The kids’ section is vibrant and interactive, and Småland (the supervised play area) is a big plus when open. Even simple things like family washrooms and free parking make it a stress-free experience for parents. 🚗 Pickup, Returns & Customer Service The Etobicoke location is one of the better-organized ones in the GTA. The Click & Collect area runs smoothly, and returns are handled efficiently. Staff members are polite, approachable, and genuinely try to solve issues rather than just pass you around. 🕓 Pro Tip Weekdays and early mornings are the best times to go if you want to avoid crowds. If you’re doing big shopping, bring a friend — loading zones and elevators can get busy, especially on weekends. 🏁 Final Thoughts Overall, IKEA Etobicoke continues to deliver on what IKEA does best — accessible design, family-friendly service, and an inspiring environment. Whether you’re redecorating your home, grabbing dinner with the kids, or just looking for ideas, it’s a must-visit.

Your typical large ikea store. I was pleasantly surprised to find the store so empty the other day when I went. Apparently Tuesday is a great time to go! Currently they seem to be changing a lot of their showcases around, so if you are going to browse maybe now isn't the time.

I live nearby and Love this location- workers are always friendly and helpful! Shout out to Markham for helping me transport a furniture. Bonus: this location is always so clean and welcoming!

Very clean and tidy, while also at the same time a full stock and availability. There is also a great variety of furniture. All the employees are very helpful!

I would say that of all the Ikeas I've been to in the GTA, this one in Etobicoke is the largest and the one with the best availabilities. I was in a dire need of a sit/stand table for work and I went to the one in Vaughan, and it was unavailable, so I went to this one in Etobicoke where not only did I find the item I was looking for in stock but many others on display as well as in stock. This IKEA is very conveniently located, you've to be careful about the parking as most of the parking is either underground or kind of hidden. If you arrive from behind the store, you'll find the open parking which is very convenient. Also, I found out that the employees are more knowledgeable and pay more attention to you. They are more available I would say. I needed one and I found one right there. Ah, how can I forget the meatballs!! Tasty as always. And then the ButterChicken at this location, huh, just don't even try it, you won't be left with a good taste in your mouth. Oh, and a fun fact; did you know that it's not pronounced as ai-key-yah! It's pronounced as Ee-key-ya!!!

I really enjoyed going shopping in IKEA. It's a cheaper way to get some home stuff. When you feel tired or hungry, you can always go to the café to get some food. Swedish meatballs are definitely a must-have when we go to IKEA. Last time, we also tried the strawberry vegan ice cream. I didn't really like it as it was a bit sour and too icy.

Great location to pick up what you need. However currently their entire lower level parking is closed for renovations. Inside, things are bright and clean and well staffed. Their new Circular Hub - formerly the As Is section - is huge! Come here to look for second hand items. The cafe was missing some classics though: cinnamon buns and plant based soft serve. At check-out it's fully self-serve now.

First, let's applaud IKEA for advertising so many plant-based food options in their cafe. Then, let's acknowledge that the only plant-based food option available on this Monday afternoon was a very ho-hum hot dog. The $3 for 2 vegan hot dogs and one Nordic water is a great price - and that's all it's worth. All out of everything else. No lingonberry drink. No pop. No soft serve. And certainly no plant balls (which are available to take home from the freezer case down the hall, and are excellent!) My partner said the lingonberry dairy soft serve was quite good. Ikea - you have all the ideas and none of the execution. 3 stars because the thought counts a little, and the price is always good.

Fantastic place for vegans to eat out. So many choices for just about anyone actually. The Veggie Balls combo is super good. The rice and tomato gravy and steamed vegetables are good accompaniment to the meal. Add a bit of pepper or some sriracha that is available and the meal is complete The Vegan Neatball is also amazing that has an amazing meaty texture. The steamed broccoli and mashed potatoes were loved. The fries and broccoli round is always liked by kids and adults alike. The Vegan Strawberry softee is absolutely best addon after the checkout.

1 star for the restaurant. 2 out of 3 visits had watery gravy for meatballs. Do they run out of cream and make it with water???? Tasteless gravy, ruined my meal. That's my last visit to the restaurant.

We were sold the incorrect hinges for our kitchen unit so the drawers for the unit wouldn't pull out correctly. We discovered this after getting home and building the unit. When we called Ikea support for help they advised they would ship us replacement parts free of charge. The parts never shipped and after 3 more follow up calls to Ikea I was advised I needed to go into the store and exchange/return the item and get the new items. I'd recommend getting a 2nd employee to double check any custom orders you place, this is the 2nd time I was sold the incorrect item from Ikea Etobicoke .

I don't know how to begin articulating what a nightmare planning and installing our Ikea kitchen with this Ikea location has been. Everything that could possibly go wrong from Ikea's end went wrong - over and over and over. First, the measuring service we paid for didn't take into account the location of our appliances and kitchen plumbing. Even though we paid for the service, we ended up having to measure it ourselves, otherwise any plan we built in store would not leave adequate room for our sink's plumbing. Instead, we were told we could "extend" the plumbing by paying a contractor. (Which would obviously cost more, and which we had no intention of doing.) Next, Ikea made multiple plans for our kitchen, and e-mailed us the incorrect one. We were on the phone and on hold with Ikea for hours, and it seemed like no one in their Kitchen planning department could find the right design, or any record of it. We finally managed to locate the right one after several days and many hours on hold with various people, but of course, it now meant the installation quote was wrong. It ended up costing more than we'd anticipated. Fine. At least we were finally going to get our cabinets and look forward to the installation, right? WRONG. Ikea attempted delivery 8+ times over the course of two+ weeks and each time, they got the address wrong. We called repeatedly to have them correct it and were told that either a) they have corrected it and it would definitely arrive during the next delivery window (it didn't) or b) we had to call the third party delivery company to confirm the address. When we called the delivery company, they told us to call Ikea. It was a game of hot potato and no one wanted to take ownership of the issue. They ended up delivering thousands of dollars worth of cabinets onto a random lady's porch in Hamilton (2 cities over). We only found out because our contact info was on the boxes and she called to tell us. Imagine if she hadn't! We'd never have known where our delivery disappeared to! Beyond unacceptable. We had to call the delivery company to inform them of the mess-up, and arrange for them to pick up the delivery from this poor woman's porch. This resulted in even more hours on hold, and time wasted speaking to uninformed customer service reps. I wish I could say this was the end, but it's not. It still took 3 delivery attempts before we got our mis-delivered cabinets, and many of them were damaged by the time they arrived. We had to haul them back to exchange them, on our own time. We also went through each line item on the order to make sure nothing was missing and sure enough, parts were missing. Thank goodness we did this and caught the mistake before the installation happened, but it shouldn't be on the customer to triple check Ikea's work. During the installation, we found out that the hood vent above the stove wasn't part of the install so, there go another couple of 100s of dollars for that addition. We also find out that we have to wait a few weeks to confirm the countertop installation, so for almost a month, our kitchen is unusable. Finally, the day comes when our countertop is suppose to be installed and we find out that the measurements didn't account for everything, and there was an invoice adjustment. We have to pay more - AGAIN. On top of that, we cannot pay via credit card link. We have to print out the adjustment and go in person to pay at an Ikea. It's 2023... but I can't pay by credit card?? I need to go in store? What's more, when we were in store and wanted to pay there, we were told we had to pay online. So which is it? (This happened repeatedly, at many stages of paying for various parts of the kitchen. It seemed like no one knew the right way to pay). We were also in limbo now and were told that even if we were to pay in store same day, there is no guarantee that our installation will happen the following day, as in store payment still take 2-3 days to process. I'm just at a loss for words. I feel like it requires an advanced background in project management to try to stay ahead of every screw up that Ikea has caused over these last several months. And it has been months. I feel like we deserve a credit for the hours we spent on hold, number of times we had to go back to the store (when we have limited access to a car), and general stress of feeling like this horror will never end. If you're considering an Ikea kitchen, save yourself the trouble. Unless you're also in the market for a stress-induced receding hairline and a permanent eye twitch, it is not worth it.

SPECIAL COVID-19 EDITION REVIEW: SAFETY PRACTICES, PROTOCOLS AND MORE. OPEN DURING COVID-19. (Stage 3 of the province of Ontario reopening) This IKEA is located on Queensway near Sherway Gardens. Parking is a bitch, sort of like wonderland except they've completely closed off underground parking and they lead you a certain way in the parking lot, which is very squished. There are arrows bringing most cars who have pre-ordered things online and are ready to be loaded in their car. Just like pre-covid, none of these people can drive and it's really easy to get into an accident around there, so be very careful. When you get to the door, there is security to ensure you have a mask or face covering on. Once you get up the escalator, you can see there are precautions like at help desks, staff have plexiglass, masks and there are signs stopping people from taking shortcuts due to COVID. Once you get to the famous IKEA restaurant, you will find that it is completely closed down due to COVID. However, there are people eating there. How? Peek behind the curtain and you'll find that they're serving IKEA staff only. We didn't know about this and were starving, so I told my girlfriend the food court downstairs is probably open (with hot dogs and whatnot). We get to the end, where we ask a staff member if the tiny restaurant is open. They said it's closed down due to COVID. I find this weird because their restaurant has plexiglass all over it but is NOT being used. Very ... interesting. I would've preferred to go to an actual cashier, however, we were directed to self checkout. There was no option to switch or anything which I found quite odd. Maybe they should ask if someone is comfortable with self checkout before directing them there. Everything seems to be sanitized but I'm quite a germaphobe especially during COVID and instead of self checkouts like at the grocery store where you scan your item over the scanner, they actually have guns you have to hold and press in order to scan an item. That's a negative for sure. Walking back to the car, it seemed like it wasn't worth the trip and we visited a local Cora's after to grab a bite. 3/5

I have always been craving for IKEA meatballs and every time I go there I get their meatballs! This time I go, I wanted to try something a little bit different. Their PLANT BALLS, i wanted to see what's the difference between the plant balls and the meatballs. They are both yummy but plant balls are just a bit soft on the outside. Their berries sauce is very good as usual. However, the environment is pretty messy and tables are not clean. Also my brother got a coke to go with his meatballs but when I looked into the cup, there are oil in the coke which is very unpleasant to look at.. overall it's still yummy and good portion.

This review is solely for IKEA's restaurant here. I don't feel like creating a new listing for it seeing that, as populous as the GTA is, no one else has. This is a weird situation for me. Normally, IKEA stores get 3s and their restaurants get 4s. I haven't bought more than 10 to 20 items from an IKEA store in my life. However, I tend to like their restaurants, more so for their airiness, economy, and efficiency than for food and drink that's memorable. And, if I see one from a freeway, I'll file it away in my head as a food option wherever I may be. Here, the restaurant and the service were just fine, the place's layout and vibe aren't as upbeat as others I've been in, and the food was just okay. I had breakfast here and, while the food tastes and looks like IKEA restaurant food anywhere, the configuration of the platters was different from what I'm used to on this side of the border. I did like that I was able to add vegetable medallions to my platter. I'll eat those at any meal. This IKEA is in Etobicoke, which is basically sandwiched in between Toronto and massive Mississauga. I guess it's considered a nice area and, for an IKEA store to go into a particular market, it seemingly has to have people who are schooled, progressive, and cheap at the same time. That's why you don't see IKEA stores in run-down areas. That said, you can't miss this IKEA since it fronts the QEW. And, since you've seen it, you know that you have to get off this lakefront expressway and negotiate the not so easy on-and-off to get to and from the store. Additionally, the parking lot doesn't breathe quite as well as those in many American locations but, evidently, they've stashed some parking under the store itself. Regardless, my gut told me that both the restaurant and the store were boilerplate okay and that I won't be salivating if ever passing in front of it on the QEW at some point in the future.

We go as a family for lunch sometimes to Ikea. The restaurant upstairs is very convenient, you can pick and choose what you want to eat. They have a variety of foods, like meatballs with mashed potatoes with cranberry sauce. Salmon, fish and chips, pasta, soup. It's fun to eat and look around for ideas for the house. Ikea has everything under one roof. The cafeteria downstairs is also great, ice cream cones, cinnamon bun, pizza, hot dogs and coffee it's like a treat. Recently, I always buy tea candles from Ikea but much to my surprise this time they were not good quality at all, they don't burn all the way.

What a disappointment, my last, and most recent visit to IKEA was at the Queensway location. I've been going there since opening and have always had positive experiences but this last time I had nothing but. While on the main floor trying to retrieve my items I could not find a representative, and so found James at the info booth. I asked him where I could find a someone to help me and he said sarcastically to me "on the floor", I told him I'd already looked around all the isles, and could not find anybody and I asked him again where I could find someone to help me, and he again sarcastically said "on the floor". He was so rude and unhelpful. I then went to look for someone up by the front cash, and was approached by a supervisor who offered her help. I told her what had happened but unfortunately, she did not really seem to care. We even passed James and I asked him his name so that I could call Customer Service and he said "nope!" After being passed to three different people I did get what I need but it was definitely not fun.

I find this to be my go-to IKEA. Let's dissect the why. For starters, the location always feels a bit against-traffic for me. For finishers, I've never had a bad experience! IKEA is quite a dependable brand and with each move I've endured in my many years in Toronto, I feel like each one isn't complete without a jaunt to this exact location. The food. Always good. Always there are the expected favourites like meatballs, but also some yummy daily soup specials with the kind of garlic bread that tastes exactly like what you would expect garlic bread to taste like. It may be a serve-your-own-drink situation, but things are never out of hand. As far as product and selection, seems like they have it all. When I went recently and couldn't find an aisle, I didn't have to wait long at all to find a helpful person and be pointed in the right direction. Hey, it happens! Hot summer find tip: popsicle moulds! For mere dollars, you can pour your favourite juice, yogurt, ice cream etc. into these moulds and have the perfect sweet treat at home at any time!

Best place to shop if you are moving out or re decorating. Furniture is not bulky and it's affordable. Kitchen utensils and cookware is also very reasonable. It's modern, durable and lite weight.

The underground parking at this location saved us because it was raining outside and we were concerned how to transfer a sleeping baby into the stroller. We really only came here to eat. I had the salmon with nordic grain, mushroom soup and Daim cake. Ah, a three course meal for $15 and tastes good, what a deal!

This location is always out of stock. Today they have about a million totes yet they are completely out of lids. What idiot does the ordering for this store? Do yourself a favour and go somewhere else.

It is Ikea... what else can I say? Sweedish meatballs made of questionable and mysterious meat anyone? Need some cheap furniture, kitchen supplies,etc? Good to go. I usually eat something everytime I visit to pick something up. I really like their diem cake, and buy the frozen ones to bring home. Always busy. The hells angles clubhouse right beside this location has always seemed oddly located. You notice same when turning off Queensway ,right behind the strip club.

I love this place it truly makes me more multicultural. First the food (oh god the food), it is impeccable. I love eating here with my friends and pals. The trays are awesome and I love putting food on there. But what food do I love putting on my tray?Well a variety. My favourite meal is the fish and chips, it is so fishy and chippy. And the tar tar sauce (delicious). I also love getting garlic bread that I get off this beautiful container for everyone to enjoy. And for the dessert, the daim cake (it sure is cake and delicious) after a wonderful meal I go look at the furniture. I love the toys, couches, beds, storage units, the gaming, the dog... and Sm more! This is truly the best time place to go when you need to go.

When you enter IKEA, you must brace yourself for a long, harrowing journey. Any such journey requires sustenance, IKEA offers the best solution: its cafeteria-style restaurant in the middle of the store. The food is based on swedish cuisine and tastes mind blowing! So you can relax from shopping and have some Salmon, or Haddock and Chips and many more! Salty, silky and rich, salmon is truly a versatile protein.

I can't decide which was worse - the food, or the service! I ordered fish and chips... the fish batter was part raw (undercooked) and the chips were limp. Then came the cashing out experience... after explain to the cashier 3 times that I don't need drinks, I was charged for pop, and very rudely treated when I asked for the wrong charge to be reversed! Honestly, for $30, I'd dine elsewhere!

FOOD: LUNCH = 8/10. We ordered the following: 1. Swedish meatballs. Cannot go wrong with this dish. 8 meatballs, scoop of mashed potatoes, vegetables & cranberry sauce. 2. Fish & Chips. Also another great lunch dish. Can opt the fries for vegetables if you want a healthier option. Comes with a packet of tartar sauce. 3. Daim Cake: Delicious! If you have a sweet tooth, this is a must try! Layered cake with bits of daim chocolate bar, cream & topped with a layer of chocolate. 4. Butter chicken: 3/10. For someone who loves butter chicken this is a sad dish. Do not order. STORE = 9/10: Everything was organized with signs to help guide you through areas. Place is great to shop, chill & maybe even give you inspiration. The only downfall is .. when you go to get a piece of furniture & find out they're out of stock! Could be helpful if there was a sign saying "out of stock" on the furniture, etc.

Came here to IKEA for a family lunch outing and then a walk around the store. I've dropped in a few times for the inexpensive breakfast but this special was over when we arrived. It's cafeteria styled service; grab what you want and then head to the checkout/pay station. Anyhow, it was a great lunch for a reasonable price. I loved the bottomless coffee and soft drinks. Clean up your tray/table before leaving. Now, for that walk...

IKEA is a very dangerous place, I am not saying dangerous as in you're going to die but more like your wallet is going to cry. Everything is sold at a very reasonable price and my wife just wants to pick-up everything. I mean EVERYTHING. We generally go straight to the food court area to have a munch before going on a scavenger hunt. You generally leave with more than you came in for. Sign up for IKEA family card for promotions and perks. They have an amazing return policy if you decide to change your mind after a while (items in perfectly good or unopened conditions).

Disclaimer: I love a lot of the merchandise and food in IKEA but HATE going to their stores to shop! You see, I have arthritis in my spine & knees & it's absolutely exhausting to walk in endless concentric circles through the deliberate maze that is the 2 floors of their furniture and furnishings showroom. IKEA insists on dragging you past every one of their departments before they let you out alive to encourage you to impulse buy at every juncture. To an able bodied young person or couples with young kids in tow, this may seem like a good and viable strategy and they may even enjoy the exercise of walking. But for a physically disabled or frail elderly customer, IKEA's layout and impulse buyers' maze design is nothing short of excruciatingly painful torture with not nearly enough rest stopping points! "Mum?" My daughter said to me on this occasion, when I was shopping for a new queen size mattress, "Did you know IKEA has scooters and push wheelchairs?" "No, I didn't. Where are they located?" "At the front entrance." Of course. Where else? But no signs I can remember mentioning this. IKEA doesn't publicly admit any of its customers object to walking for miles round their showrooms. I considered briefly whether I want to get a scooter next time and thus be physically separated from my daughter and husband when shopping. Then I thought about making my daughter push me in a wheelchair and shuddered at the potential indignity of admitting I just can't walk round IKEA anymore. ;_; If I can still walk, I wanna walk, dammit. IKEA, though, with a little effort, you could make it easier for your disabled and older customers like me. I have some general suggestions and some suggestions specifically intended for the 2 floor layout you use at your Etobicoke location: YOU NEED MORE AND BETTER SIGNAGE EVERYWHERE. I cannot stress this enough! You should have signs in every single department WITH ARROWS directing everyone to the elevators for those like me who have trouble with stairs, for strollers & for wheelchairs & scooters. Lounge Areas: every store of the vast size IKEA is, needs a rest area on every floor in a quiet tucked away nook or corner with couches and armchairs, greenery, drinking water fountains and nearby washrooms, and maybe some mirrors and framed artwork. The best example I've ever seen of this is in a quiet nook of the downtown Toronto Reference Library where they have a green growing wall garden fed by water next to couches and armchairs. It's small yet spacious. You don't have to follow their model but you desperately need a lounge area of some kind on your second floor, well away from the noisy stressful cafeteria. Make your furniture pickup/delivery friendlier to people with accessibility issues. Have more staff available to help people load purchases into their cars and ensure your delivery procedures accommodate disabled & frail elderly/seniors. You guys refused to remove/recycle my old mattress unless I physically hauled the old queen size mattress into a big plastic bag "for sanitary reasons." I don't have a friend or neighbour to help me move my old mattress into the bag. IKEA's delivery policies discriminate against disabled people!

This Ikea location is really nice. They currently have construction on the parking lot, but not hard to find spots at all, even when busy! Came here for a light lunch. Got chicken Thai curry and garlic bread. It was the perfect combo.

We always come to this IKEA to buy our furniture and other small house items and we are always satisfied. For the price the quality of items is pretty decent. The costumer service is always good. Today we spent 3 hours designing our kitchen there and a very friendly and knowledgeable employee Ira helped us out. We are more then happy and pleased! The food is really average. We have tried fish and chips which are my go to when I am there. The meatballs always taste processed and the chicken is very bland. The dessert cakes are frozen and I would give them 3 out of 5 stars. If you go to this place on weekends then good luck with the rush. If you have time during weekday evenings it's always empty and you have enough room to walk around and shop comfortably without bumping into people.

Every Sunday I like to take trek to Ikea for their $2 breakfast ... yes $2 fir scrambled eggs, hashbrowns, sausages, tomatoes and a piece of toast ... well minus the toast for me because I'm gluten intolerant ... but overall great price for what you wil get.

It's ice cream season... and just had to stop at IKEA for their lingonberry ice cream.

We ordered the "Traditional Breakfast". Definitely don't go to Ikea with the hope that the food quality is up to par with yo average brunch spot. Buuuuuttttt if you're looking for some cheap eats with questionable eggs, then this option is perfect for you! It comes with: - 1 pc buttered toast - potatoes or ikeas version of "home fries" - scrambled eggs - 2 pieces of chicken sausage - 2 slices of tomato Wouldn't jump at the opportunity to order again but you should order it if you want to have the complete ikea experience. There's an odd sense of beauty in this dish when it's tied to the shopping experience. You can't beat the price! Service Rating: 2/5 Food Rating: 2/5 Overall Ikea Experience: 4/5

Yay! I'm a fan (so is my boyfriend). We are newly minted home owners and this is our go to stops as well as many others. There are cheap steals in the warehouse with many other promotions going on. Every month, they usually have a department on some special. If you sign up for their family members, each month they have family members deals! Also when you scan your family members card. You will be entered into a draw to win a gift card. They have a food court, ice cream shop, hot dog stand and a mini ikea owned grocery store. Literally do everything in one stop.

I've long heard the legend of the free childcare at Ikea, and this past weekend I finally experienced it. If you have a little one between 37"-54" they can play for one hour, supervised, for free. You can do a lot of shopping for curtains, candles and couches in one hour.

Though IKEA might not be the best place to shop for furniture or deco if you want to have the most unique furniture for your home. However, it is always inspiring to just walk around the store, opening up some cabinets, sink into some of the sofas or even sleep in some of the day beds.. Food here is cheap and reasonable! Nothing gourmet but great for snacks and if you are on a budget. Remember to get the IKEA Family card which is free to enrol, not only you get specials at the cafe and even your coffee/tea are free!! Just love IKEA's business model...

Excellent example of the Ikea brand, store is usually packed on weekends so weekdays would a good time to come if your not into crowds. They show a good attitude towards cleanliness and usually have staff around to help. This locations' restaurant has good decently priced delectables and grocery foodstuffs to take home. I personally don't buy anything major aside from a tv stand but their prices are steep for furniture and the like, but that's my opinion. I would've given an extra star if they hadn't removed French toast from their breakfast menu.

My delivery service was shocking and disappointing. I ordered a sofa bed online . I was very happy to know it was in stock and it was ready to be delivered in just a few days. Delivery was arranged. There were 2 large heavy boxes and several smaller ones. I was shocked when delivery stopped outside the front door. The delivery people refused to bring the boxes in. I am a 72 year old senior citizen. That is the worst service I have ever had. Second problem, two of the legs couch are missing! Terrible, terrible service!!!

Like all the other poor ratings, this review is based on their customer service. The only way IKEA is enjoyable is if you go in, do your thing and self checkout. That's it. Once you start interacting with the people that work there, your visit is no longer pleasant. The second star is only because I actually enjoy IKEA products. On one occasion we asked one of the associates at the children's play area if she could open the door for us so we could get to the front faster. We saw a women open the door to come through, so we figured an associate could just open the door for us. On our side of the door it said emergency exit only and that the alarm would sound. So obviously we didn't want that to happen. When we asked the associate, she was already in a bad mood and answered "i could but...." and her voice trailed off as she was walking away. At that point we didn't care anymore and just walked away. It shouldn't be that difficult. It's a yes or no and it was clearly going to be a no. A few days later I returned to purchase a dresser. This time I was on my own. I was able to load this huge 2 piece dresser onto my cart myself. I should have self checkout but I wanted to make sure I got the "member price" as I had signed up the night before. The associate cashing me out was miserable and the store had only been open for an hour. I asked her if I could get the member pricing and she asked if I had my family card. I explained that I just signed up last night. She said that she needed the card. This is maybe not her fault and maybe IKEA as a whole, but what the heck is the point of signing up online when I still need to wait for a card?! Shouldn't you be able to look in the system and see that I am a member?! Anyways, I asked her if there was someone that could help me load the items in my car and she said they would be outside. I went outside, no one was around. So I went back in and asked the first associate I saw if she could call someone. They came within 3 minutes, but the person they called was 2 times smaller than me! I'm pretty small. I'm not trying to be mean and this judgement would have changed if he handled everything on his own but I ended up helping him! I initially knew I should have done it on my own. When he went to pick up the first larger piece it looked like he was struggling. So I asked if he needed help and he asked me to grab the other end. He didn't even try to get the second piece or offer. I already had my momentum going so I just managed to lift it and load it myself. Then he was all "you good?". Ugh. Thank god I work out because I probably would have had to wait for a second person to show up and help. Honestly, IKEA Etobicoke, your customer service sucks. I feel the need to escalate this because from my experiences and from reading other reviews, this clearly is an issue.

Ugh, this place is so good! Covid made it so bad, as IKEA isn't what it used to be! Want covid to be gone, so IKEA can become IKEA again!

Before my sister and I went touring through IKEA, we had lunch in their restaurant (I haven't eaten in their restaurant before). It was quite busy. We both had Swedish meatballs (there were 10 to an order) and mashed potatoes. Surprisingly it wasn't bad. With a pop (refillable for free), it came to $7.90 (including taxes). I think the red stuff was supposed to be cranberry sauce ... it was more like a sweet jam. The pop was really really warm so needed lots of ice. I'd eat there again if I was at their store and hungry.

i just tried to make a return and buy a gift from ikea. What a shit show. Drove to the underground because I know that's near their return desk and found it under repair and poorly signed. the entrance elevators were out of service, and the door to get in was hidden around the corner with no signage. I ended up finding myself walking into a construction site! When I got in with two heavy boxes of goods to return, I walked straight past a woman who didn't bother to let me know that there was a two hour wait. After I finally realize that's who I should be talking to, She tells me it's a two hour wait!! I said that felt unacceptable. She was not apologetic and gave me a smug look and said yes, we have to serve all these people. I said, do you have not have enough staff? And she just shrugged. It was I was left to feel that I was insignificant to the store. I will never shop here again. a corporation of ikeas size should be able to serve customer needs better than this

Chaos, pure chaos. C & I had such sensory overload here that we really didn't enjoy our experience. One of my most frustrating points was at the 20 person deep check out lines that gridlocked all of the Christmas trinkets. I wish they'd had this stuff far from the check out area, because there was no easy way to browse it, and people didn't want to let you through with their carts full of heavy crap. Meh. We decided to skip the showroom and went straight to the marketplace. Found a few good things. They have these little red paring knives that are SUPER sharp and I am obsessed with them. They're like $2 per knife and they cut through anything. The first time I used one, It was so sharp that it not only sliced through my tomato, but also the cutting board I was using. So I got one of those, and a few other things. Since we arrived hangry, we ate at the restaurant which is upstairs. Honestly, it wasn't good, though the lingonberry juice was. Milder loganberry, if you're from Buffalo. Overall, it was worth the browse, but I probably wouldn't come back to this store. Total chaos, tons of people, and heartburn from the meatballs.

Such a good breakfast for only $10 or so! But I think all those heavy carbs made my partner and I drowsy while we strolled around Ikea afterward haha. Like last time, the service wasn't the best. My partner said the sales rep on the floor seemed more preoccupied talking amongst themselves than helping customers - I agree..

So understand these are indeed strange times. Think ikea made a good decision to close the stores, given their business model involves spending an afternoon completely lost... So they still had pick-up for on line orders. No problem! Placed the order. Receipt said I could pick up the next morning. Drove to the store only to find out that you MUST have an email saying it is ready. WHY DIDNT THEY SAY THAT WHEN I PLACED MY ORDER??? Geeze! There's 90 minutes I'll never get back. So I waited almost a week only to learn via a robocall that they were shutting down the pickup. WHAT??? OK. So now what? After phoning, emailing, and getting absolutely ZERO meaningful information, I finally happened upon a rep who seemed to know their stuff, combined my order, offered free delivery, just "click the link". Sweet. Except they didn't transfer all the items I had on order. I added them... placed the "new" old combined order, GOT CHARGED FOR DELIVERY, and the receipt said it would be delivered in two days. Excellent... Except it didn't come. Ug. NO update on line. No email letting me know what's happening. Nothing. Terrible communication. They have my money. I'm expecting not to see it until they reopen. I would have expected better from a company this size.

It's my first time trying food at IKEA! Omg I just loved them. To start off with their soup - tomato and feta was wonderful, then their fish and chips was sooo yumilicious, and I tried their vegetable samosa which tasted like a chicken samosa so even better for a meat lover then the Swedish meatballs with mash potatoes and gravy with their traditional lingonberry jam I believe was sooo on top my tongue and for dessert we had their carrot cake.. uff I just missed experiencing this since I cAme to Canada anyways i will always eat there forever !

We had came to ikea to return some lamps my fiancé had bought that we had fully assembled and used! I packed them up nicely and put them back into the box and headed down to ikea! We waited about 10 min in line to see the cashier and he did not even open the box to check if we had used the lamps! WOW 5 star service! WE GOT FULL REFUND! So we headed into the shopping market to find some plants and photo frames. To my surprise they had everything we were looking for in the photo section! So many awesome frames to choose from with a wide price range! The plant section was very small with minimal to choose. A lot was sold! The racks were cleared out! There was also a really cool recycling station for light bulbs! And a underground parking lot with elevators! So convenient in the winter time!

The restaursnt: The food here was mostly very good. Mostly because it was either very good, or cardboard. That said all of it was very well priced. The chilli was beyond great, fries were good, salmon was very tasty BUT the salmon balls were made from the cardboard that the salmon was shipped in. The Mac and Cheese was good but cold. And I mean it has not seen heat all day kind of cold. The fish and chips were good but people were complaining that the prepackaged tartar sauce was bad. To me it tasted mediocre. Dinner was the same menu. They also had deserts, specialty soft drinks and sandwiches that seamed very well priced.

Good For price and ok quality of stuff Food takes long time to get if you order. After been here for hour just want get out ASAP

We came here for some curtains and ended up eating dinner at their cafeteria. To my surprise, the food was actually pretty decent and cheap! We ordered the salmon with rice and the Swedish meatballs which came with mashed potatoes and lingonberry sauce. I've had the best and most expensive meatballs in Sweden and I must admit, this is up there for 1/4 of the price. The mashed potato were equally impressive made with real potatoes as opposed to the ones wiped out of a box. The rice that accompanied the Salmon was cooked with zucchini, squash and carrots! Talking about a balanced diet. Lastly, the ambience, we came here on a weeknight and it was heavenly quiet. Complete opposite of the weekend crowd with screaming kids. I would definitely come back but only on a weeknight.

I usually come here when I crave fish n chips and they almost never disappoint. The fish n chips here is amazing. It taste as good as it looks in the pic. The restaurant for those who doesn't know, is located on the second floor. The first floor food station only sells ice cream and hotdogs. But the fish is worth a try.

First time visiting this location. I love going to Ikea becuase i know i won't be leaving empty handed. This location has a pretty standard Ikea layout. Great customer service while checking-out...will be visiting again soon.
