Toronto restaurants part 2

I wanted to use the Restaurants application I've been using in Facebook or a restaurant review website (like dinehere.ca for Vancouver) for the places we eat here, but we haven't been able to find any online source that has any significant number of restaurants listed.

The Beacher Cafe at Queen Street East and Maclean was a nice cafe along the main drag through The Beaches. When we didn't see anything appetizer-y on the menu they were kind enough to whip together some hummus and pita bread for us.

Hemingway's at Cumberland Street and Old York Lane is apparently one of the places to be seen in Yorkville. We didn't see anyone and I don't think anyone was looking at us. Very nice rooftop patio. The food was good.

Cafe Nervosa at Yorkville Avenue and Bellair St had good desserts and very good coffee. We will have to come back for the coffee.

Toula in the Westin at Queen's Qay and Bay had the worst service ever. The food was okay, but the service was slow to the point of rude despite the fact that only two other tables were occupied. Yes, two. It would have been three, but another couple left shortly after being seated. It's a nice view over the water from the 38th floor, and it looks as though it should rotate, but doesn't.
