Honest Weight

Visited as a popular restaurant in the Junction (Dundas West) neighborhood, they are best known for their seafood dishes and seafood market within the restaurant. Essentially all of their items are seafood based and are sourced using the same seafood they also sell by their own market inside. Their seafood counter is one of the best chowders in the city as it contains a generous amount of seafood in a flavourful broth. Even as an appetizer L, the portion size of the chowder alone can be filling and can be requested for it to be in a shareable portion if looking to split it. One of their most popular items is the seafood okonomiyaki, which is a Japanese pancake that you wouldn’t normally see in this type of restaurant however the way they do it is with a generous amount of fresh seafood. They also offer daily specials such as a fried scallop sandwich. Service was excellent as they were attentive in checking in throughout the meal. Overall it’s a recommended place for seafood for either brunch or as dinner, and is also a convenient place to also buy fresh seafood given they also operate as a seafood market.

Really good service and great seafood. Only complaints are that my salmon was very overcooked, on the dry side. The chowder was also very watery, but full of ingredients. I would 100% return and have other fish options. Really nice place, highly recommend.

A cozy seafood restaurant located in the Junction. I'd strongly recommend a reservation, especially if you are going with more than two people. The restaurant decor is a wonderful mix of modern restaurant with what you'd expect from a fish shop. The menu is split with a section of smaller plates and larger plates. Make sure you get the seafood chowder, it is exquisite. There are very few restaurants where I'd try something new when I go back and I am so confident that everything on the menu is going to be delicious. If you love seafood Honest Weight is a must go!

Blown away! My husband and I have always walked by but had no idea it was a restaurant as well. The ambience is perfect for date night and the food was incredible. From starters to dessert, everything was perfect. We had amazing service, sorry I didn't catch our servers name for a first shout out but all her recommendations were spot on. We're already planning our next visit! If you like fish/seafood, this is definitely a spot to check out.

Wow, truly incredible dishes being served at Honest Weight. Best fish I've had in a very long time. Unique and fresh fish and seafood options changed up regularly. Perfectly executed dishes, cooked to perfection. Cute quaint and cosey restaurant, with wonderful service. Thank you for a beautiful dinner this evening!! It's definitely my new favourite fish restaurant in Toronto. Cheers!

Amazing food! Everything is so fresh tasting, love the garnish selection they have for the oysters, my first time trying them with the Mignonette. I had the Tuna Tataki and it was delightful! I also had the Red Snapper Fish w/ Rapini & Mashed Potatoes, also Seared Scallops super delicious! It is a wonderful little restaurant and for sure will be back. The waitress was super nice, excellent service! If you’re a seafood lover definitely try this place!
