NextDoor does brunch right. This was probably one of the most innovative and unique brunch menus I've seen in Toronto. With items like the duck confit pancakes, aburi salmon soba noodles, and okonomiyaki burger, they've really tried to bring a different spin to your meal. And of course, the brunch tower really is a magnificent spread sure to impress your guests. The taste of all the dishes was good and the portions were decent, depending on the dish.
The prices are overall pretty high, but for brunch you're typically paying a premium anyways. Every dish will be over $20, but you should be full. The brunch tower ($58/$110) does seem a bit overpriced if you break down each item, since the majority of the tower is potatoes and mushrooms. But you are also paying for the visual experience. We split the 2 person tower (and 1 entree each) with 4 people, and we could barely touch it with how full we were.
As for dishes, I especially recommend the shakshuka ($20) which I enjoyed so much. The flavors were amazing and the bread they provide is a great pairing. I was a bit disappointed that they charged me $4 for an additional 2 pieces of bread that I asked for, especially when my dish requires bread as a pairing. They offered to take it off my bill which was appreciated but I paid for it anyways since I did get the bread.
