Steam Whistle Kitchen turns the Roundhouse into a brewery-patio meal: burgers, wings, seasonal comfort dishes, fresh pilsner, and game-day timing built into the visit.

Lyla is a Queen West Mediterranean restaurant from Daniel van Welie and Amen Habtemariam, with current chef Daniel Kim leading a seafood-forward menu that runs from raw bar and Octopus Bravas to lobster linguine, brunch, Golden Hours, and private dining. The clearest read is Mediterranean sharing with a raw-bar spine rather than a single-cuisine room.

Pantheon Restaurant is a family-run Greek fixture on the Danforth, open since 1997 and built around Saganaki, Roast Lamb, Fresh Market Catch, souvlaki dinners, and seafood such as Gavro and Barbounia. The room adds a front patio, weekday happy hour, and an official online reservation path.

Mamakas Taverna is a polished Greek/Aegean dining room on Ossington, with a menu built around whole Lavraki, Oktapodi, Moussaka, Greek wine, and shared-table prix fixe strategy. Owner Thanos Tripi gives the story a grounded people thread.

Danforth gyros specialist built around fries-in-the-pita Greek wraps, practical lunch combos, and a founder story tied directly to Greektown.

Mezes is a Danforth Greek room built around shared mezes, grilled seafood, mousaka dinners, and a wine program that stays pointedly Greek. Walk-ins only, takeout-friendly, and strongest for groups that want dips, saganaki, lamb, and honeyed desserts.

Bar Koukla is the Mamakas group Aegean snack-bar room on Ossington: raw seafood, dips, fritters, grilled seabass, lamb, Greek wine and cocktails, with brunch as a real second lane. Book it for meze and a fuller table order rather than a generic Greek night out; GEFsi gives the room a fixed-menu dinner path.
