Tracking Toronto's newest, independent, registered restaurants
New restaurants in The Junction, Toronto: 6 licensed in the past year, tracked daily from the City of Toronto business-licence registry (chains excluded). The most recent is BANH MI HAPPY, first seen 5 months ago.
Independent-restaurant corridor along Dundas Street West around Keele. Former railway-junction industrial district remade in the last two decades into a contemporary food strip — third-wave cafes, neighbourhood Italian, casual sushi, and craft brewpubs.
Of the 6 currently tracked restaurants in The Junction: 2 Vietnamese, 1 French, 1 Korean, 1 Indian, 1 other.
"First seen" reflects when each restaurant first surfaced in our combined evidence — City permit, public-health inspection, social media — usually within a few weeks of opening, but a permit can lead actual opening by months. How we verify ›
