- Adam FJuly 8, 2014Everything about this place screams authentic. Make sure to get the hot sandwiches with extras. Latkes are a must and the smoked beef is that little bit of incredible. Do not walk past this place.
- Brad McA.October 23, 2012Plan on a long table wait but well worth it; breakfast or lunch is ideal! Staff has awesome personality and the owner is present ready to stop by for a chat. Do not leave without having the latkes!
- Dayna MonicaJune 17, 2016Like no I love this place food service staff everything about it is awesome best deli in the city by far.

- Christi SAugust 7, 2014Try the meatloaf sandwich, brisket, smoked meat, or matzo ball soup. My favourite is the open faced turkey and Kishke sandwich on Challah bread with latkes. Yum!
- You can't go wrong with the smoked meat platter, the latkas, the fries or the deep fried pickles. The Brisket is delicious as well as the pan seared Ontario rainbow trout. Order them with an Amsterdam
- Joe PreiditschMay 16, 2017Quite likely the best smoke meat west of a Montreal. The Matzo ball soup is also a must.
- Steven AndrophyFebruary 15, 2014Awesome deli: smoked meat as good as (if not better than) Schwartz's in Montréal, and make sure to get a side of poutine with whatever you order!
- Urban AdventuresFebruary 8, 2012The Toronto Urban Adventures crew are regulars at Caplansky's, thanks to their delectable smoked meat, wicked borscht, and must-have brisket. Great place to eat after the Kensington & Chinatown tour! Read more

- RaniJanuary 18, 2015Beef brisket delivered on expectations. Didn't like the fries in the poutine (seemed a little dried out). Put mustard! Bonus: serves alcohol! :)
- Dominiquenotdom NomuraNovember 30, 2014Fries are good, Mac & cheese is too big for me, great potato salad. Breath taking beef brisket on an onion bun
- Frank MillerJune 3, 2014This is the place to get smoked meat in Toronto. But leave room for dessert. The pies are to die for.

- Rocco GMarch 30, 2014Decided to go for the Smoked Turkey with a Caplanky Salad. What I got was a fistful of dry, unsmoked turkey between two pieces plain rye bread. The salad came in what looked like a small desert bowl.
- The new menu has got something for everyone — even vegetarians: try the Ratatouille. Of course all the deli classics are in good supply (not to mention made from scratch, with love, and in-house).
- Stefan KupychFebruary 11, 2010A bowl of (sadly beetless but still pretty good considering) borscht; the best smoked meat sandwich this side of Montreal, fatty and with piles of hot mustard; a pint of Mill St. I can die now.
