Completo — Restaurant in Toronto

If you have the choice, pick their Broadview location over this one unless you just want takeout. This is a little hole in the wall take-away spot. Not an actual restaurant, as we learned. I really thought it would be as amazing as their other location.

The food was just as good, although the menu is much smaller, but it loses a lot of points for ambience and seating. You don't really have a choice but to sit outside on their tiny little patio sets. There is technically minimal indoor seating but the music is so loud, and the cooking too, that I can't imagine it would be great if you're looking to eat and chat with a friend. Eating outside on the sidewalk in chilly fall weather really killed the vibe for us. So, just be aware you'll have to bundle up now. It's either wasps or cold.

They have almost no selection of drinks, and no hot drinks. Not awesome when you're eating outside and it's autumn...

The staff was super friendly and helpful however.

As a takeout spot? 4.5 stars. As a dine-in (outside), it's only 3 as it's just okay. Nothing bad, but also not great. Still delicious food.

Also, if you're a woman (or man) looking for a husband, hang out here for a while ;) In the whole time we sat here, it was ALL men coming in. Only one other woman with her boyfriend. Good luck,...

2023 June 4★ TACOS 11.50 3 house-made hardshell tacos with your choice of steak, pork, chorizo, veg or vegan. Finished with their house hot sauce, jalapeno-lime crema, mashed avocado, refried beans, fresh salsa, and shredded cheddar. The Tacos are great. The hard shell is crunchy and flavorful. A definite recommend.

CORN CHIPS with cheese. 7.95 + 2.00 House made tortilla chips served with mashed avocado, tomato-cilantro salsa, house hot sauce and crema. The corn chips were amazing in the Tacos that I had to get them separately. Though the shredded cheese was a tad expensive given the amount that was on it. The avocado was ok. The salsa was ok. The hot sauce was good. Would recommend but skip the cheese.

COMPLETO POUTINE 10.95 + $4 for the chorizo. Hand cut fries, refried beans, and aged cheddar, topped with house made salsa. Served with mashed avocado and their hot sauce and crema. This was ok. Their chorizo was more like a meat patty. Not that it wasn't good, but the overall was so so. Would pass next time.

Very Limited indoor seating about 3. Outdoor seating...

Today, I finally made it out to Completo. This is significant for me because I had been enjoying their incredible steak sandwiches since the first pop-up location opened up in Kensington Market, five years ago. I think I must have eaten there every week for that entire summer. It was my favourite sandwich in the entire city. I'd been aware of the Leslieville location for a few years, but rarely made it into that neighborhood. Until today. Luckily, the owner was in and even remembered me from the original pop-up! I was delighted to see their original steak sandwich was still on the menu, called the 'Churrassco (our classic)'. After five years, the sandwich hasn't changed one bit: it is still incredible. The steak, naturally raised, is cooked perfectly (read: not overdone) and covered in: diced tomatoes, avocado, mayo, hot sauce, and roasted red pepper sauce. This is no mere sandwich of griddled meat and toasted bread.. this is God, speaking...
