Good food, excellent service.
This used to be a place where you could go for a great meal at a good price. But those days are long gone on my last trip they charged 18.00 for a wiener schnitzel they was essentially all breading with some mysterious meat in between and not much of that. To bad I have fond memories of CS from years back but they will never see me again. The food was overpriced garbage, no wonder at 7pm on a Saturday night the restaurant was empty maybe they will get the message but I doubt it. Sad really sad!!!!!
This place is great if you're looking for cafeteria food. Their excuse for a paprikás was the most basic, gelatinous kind of gravy I've ever had. There really wasn't any paprika in it, or any of the other typical ingredients that go into a paprikás (tomatoes, peppers and onions, anything really). Just like canned gravy. We also ordered the mushroom schnitzel, and the galuska it came with had the same lard/gravy dobbed onto it. As a Hungarian, I'm sorry to say Country Style is a really poor representation of authentic Hungarian food. For those of you considering to go to this restauraunt, I highly encourage you to open any old Hungarian cookbook and give it a try yourself. You'll easily make something more authentic!
Bloor street used to be very European till the japanese sushi places took over. There were several great Hungarian restaurants in the area. Country Style is one of the few places left where there is still an old world charm coupled with great food at even better prices. The ONE bad review for this restaurant shows that people DO return to Country Style because it's a great place to eat. I've eaten just about everything on the menu and the ONLY dish I had a slight issue with was the Chicken Paprikas (and that's ONLY because I love it how my mamma makes it best). Apart from that I would highly give this restaurant a chance and often bring friends, guests and dates here. *Cheers!
A guaranteed weekly visit during my university years way back in the mid 1980s - the best meal on a student budget! It is a must visit everytime I visit TO, and the food is exactly the same - superb-tasting and huge portions. I sent my sister and her husband there and they could not believe the amount of food, the delicious food, and the incredibly cheap prices ! I have even taken pictures of the schnitzel - monstrous !!! Still the same friendly servers and cozy setting - I can't wait for the next visit !! Truly wonderful !!

If your Dad doesn’t like fancy new restaurants and prefers something older, with foods he recognizes (what is this “quinoa” you speak of?), Country Style Hungarian is the perfect choice. Not only will the red and white-checkered tablecloths put him at ease, a bowl of their beef goulash or signature schnitzel dinners (veal or chicken) will fill him up in a way that no salmon dinner with brown rice could. It might not be the healthiest option, but since when was Dad all about kale and goji berries anyway?

The chicken is stewed, but is kept whole and on the bone come service time. The restaurant has been around for an astonishing 54 years. It had a recent overhaul last winter, but still maintains its traditional Hungarian menu.
