Clean, Delicious Food - Edit
It was raining and we wanted to enjoy the outdoors. The amazing fully covered patio was a huge bonus. We were to comfortably eat “outdoors” and not get rained out.

Good - Edit
We got take out here. My husband loved his breakfast bowl. I got the waffles & chana which overall tasted good but the middle of the waffle was extremely soggy.

Happy meal - Edit
Stopped by this place when in need of sustenance.
Read moreExcellent food, varied menu, great customer service, high quality products. Everything you need.
My only complaint is that the door and windows were open. Maybe because 16 degrees is considered warm in October in Toronto? 🙂

Tasty all-day brunch - Edit
The bowls at Hello 123 are delicious, but it’s the all-day brunch offerings that keep me going back. Irene’s Massive Breakfast is so hearty it will keep you going all day— lots of protein and lots of carbs to keep the energy up.
Read moreCons: Food tends to be on the oily/greasy side

So good - Edit
Perfect portions, great service. Delicious food. I had the Benny Benny and it was easily the best vegan Benny I’ve had.

This doesn't even deserve ⭐️ - Edit
I ordered the gf Benny. It was not edible. The pancakes taste of chickpea flour (which usually means the chickpea wasn't cooked enough to get rid of the taste). The "eggs" were very strange tasting and definitely not egg like. I would never wag here again. The side salad was OK and the gf toast was nice. Hot sauce was so hot I couldn't eat it. And I like heat. Gf almond shortbread was OK.

Great Service & Great Food! - Edit
Since I've moved out to Toronto from the west coast, it has been very hard to find quality veg restaurants. I highly recommend Hello 123 to folks who are looking for quality veg food at a restaurant. Has a great atmosphere and have had great memories meeting up with friends for great veg fare.

Cute healthy place - Edit
If you are craving more ”health” food such as bowls, I would recommend this. It seems to be pretty packed during lunch hours. Nice environment

Yummy Brunch - Edit
I shared a few plates with friends and was amazed at all the different vegan egg creations they made, from omelettes to benedicts to scrambles. They also do sweet and savory pancake/waffle options, all tasty as well!
Read moreThe only reason I’m not giving it 5 stars is because I’ve since tried other vegan cafes in the area and have been even more impressed! I definitely recommend exploring Parksdale!

One of my favourite places - Edit
One of my favourite places to go for food in the city. I have been for brunch a couple of times and love it. The atmosphere is great and the staff is always very friendly. I definitely recommend trying their french toast or one of their bowls. It is a pretty small place though so be prepared to wait if it is busy.

Don't miss this amazing all-vegan brunch spot! - Edit
This is my favorite place for breakfast where I have been coming regularly, and the staff already remember me😄Pity they do not open before 11 am! I tried quite a few things from the menu, some being excellent, some needing a bit of a brush up (e.g. the "Eggs Benny" were a bit tasteless). Some combinations were surprising for me - e.g. English muffin replaced by crackers in their "Benny Benny", or French toast made of sourdough bread instead of toast bread. Anyway, the place has an atmosphere, is very cozy and clean, and the staff are super sweet. Their great food styling skills deserve special attention - something for your Instagram!

You gotta eat here! - Edit
My friend and I went for brunch and wow, so delicious! I had "Irene's Massive Breakfast" and it was sooooo so good. The chickpeas and kale omelet was the best vegan omelet I've ever had. Really tasty pancakes. My friend had the "Hello Burger" - he's not vegan but really liked the house patty. Service was fast and really friendly. It's a small place but really clean and quaint. Highly recommended!

One of my Toronto favorites - hello! - Edit
My wife & I went there after The Official Animal Rights March on August 26th. Ironically, we went based on a recommendation from a non-vegan - it's that good. We shared Tyler's Tempeh Sandwich, Kale+ Salad, and the Chocolate Avocado Mousse (pics loaded for each). Everything was great from presentation to taste. Highly recommended!

Surprisingly great - Edit
We went here when Mythology was unexpectedly closed, and were delighted by the food. We had the enormous breakfast platter, which was delicious, and the "spicy bap"--a really yummy bi bim bap. The service was very fast and attentive.

How's the food? I wouldn't know. - Edit
Schlepping around Parkdale (I refuse to call it "Vegandale"!) I didn't think I could tackle the Doomies so I thought I'd try Hello 123.
Read moreIt was super busy. I sat at the bar and waited 15 minutes for someone to give me a menu. It didn't arrive. Staff were zooming all around me, cleaning glasses, etc. No one took any notice of me.

Cool + sweet - Edit
A really beautiful space with absolutely delicious eats. Their food creations feel healthy and nourishing while comprising not an ounce of flavour or creativity. One of the greatest vegan Caesar drinks I've ever had!
