Best Casual Restaurants in Yonge and Lawrence

We went for a late lunch on New Year's Day. We picked Stock primarily because we love the decor and staff. It was a lively afternoon in the restaurant with one quite loud diner near us, but we could converse comfortably. Our waitress was lovely and gave me good direction on menu choices. Other staff who attended our table were equally gracious. We had noted before that staff at Stock strike a pleasing balance of being warmly engaging yet professional. The food was good and service was well timed from start to finish. It was an enjoyable outing to kick off the first day of the new year.

The restaurant is spacious and well appointed. Downstairs can be noisy, with a bar area TV and later live music. The menu has a good range of selections, the service was excellent. Very friendly and easy going staff. We had 2 appetizers and 2 main dishes and a shared dessert. The food preparation and taste was excellent. Some dishes are quite expensive. The large private parking lot was very convenient.

The best mussels anywhere!!! Knowledgeable friendly service. So fortunate to have such a great restaurant in our community. And again, greatest mussels ever!

Everything was incredible but the gnocchi was a thing of beauty. Could not recommend this restaurant more.

Well deserving of its recent Michelin Bib status, and only after 10 years :). Very creative and excellent cuisine in a casual and friendly atmosphere.
