Denny's is opening at Bay/Dundas soon (123 Dundas St W).
I'm excited to finally have Denny's and Nandos close to where I live!

And this is my friends will be the future, as more and more condo's displace all the businesses in the downtown core. As existing restaurants & bars try to relocate into the base of all the new condos being planned, all the people who moved into the core to be close to the action, will be the first to complain when the fun is too close to them...in their own condos. Sad....
I live in a building with an Irish pub at street level...and never hear any noise...I don't see how a restaurant such as real jerk will cause any disturbance to the residents...

I do understand their concern over a liquor license, but having a liquor license does not mean it will be a drunken sports bar. I would be thrilled to have a great restaurant at the bottom of my building if I lived there!

A Denny's at the bottom of the Motion condos? That's pretty awesome.

It'll actually be in the building next to Motion, which will be renovated replacing two Chinese restaurants. More info below.

New Asian restaurant coming to the corner of Yonge & Isabella. This is the site of the proposed new condo.
See the "America's Dinner" slogan on the front elevation in the PDF? It would be a mistake to add that I think. What a turn-off.

I have a friend on the BoD of the condo that will house The Real Jerk. I'll see if I can get some more info.

The lawyer for one of the residents quoted sounds like a few people want to play hardball, make any and all possible complaints against the restaurant (noise, garbage) - the Star article previous made some of the residents in that building sound like precious princesses who seek peace and quiet - on Queen Street!

I think they made a mistake with that. It should read "America's Diner" and not "Dinner". I don't think they will have that slogan anyhow. The Canadian arm of Denny's actually has a Canadian Flag in the logo (below).
I am a fan of Denny's, though I don't eat there very often because the food isn't necessarily healthy for you. But if I were drunk, Denny's would be the first place I'd visit to wolf down a Slam Burger!

Toronto Life has photos of a new ramen and izakaya joint on College St. in Little Italy. It's supposedly Okinawa-based and the first location outside of Japan: Ryoji Ramen and Izakaya

Does anyone know what's going in to the Coffee Time space at Queen's Quay & Spadina. Windows are papered over, the exterior signage is gone.

Hopefully something far better than a Coffee Time!
agreed! the place was a dump so fingers crossed that it's going to be something better.

All I could get out of him (I hadn't realized he was not on the BoD anymore)...
I was involved on the board of this condo some years ago, before this kerfuffle got started. I am no longer a resident or involved with the Edge. We always hoped for something like a coffee shop or whatnot, but never thought a restaurant would move in there. I understand why a restaurant of any sort would be a bit of a challenge - smell & noise & extra garbage, etc.
