Opening soon
- Henrietta Lane, a "cafe & drinkery," will be opening this fall at 394 King St. E. in Corktown.
- Pollyanna, a restaurant from the same team behind Eastside Social and The Thirsty Duck, will soon be opening in what was previously Aprile Bambina Cucina at 1054 Gerrard St. E. (at Jones).
- Bollywood Benny, which appears to be an Indian-style brunch spot, looks to be opening soon at 88 Nassau St. in Kensington Market.
- Sidebar, a resto-bar at Broadview & Danforth affiliated with and directly beside the Danforth Music Hall, should be opening very soon. It will focus on modern North American cuisine, featuring locally sourced ingredients and dishes made from scratch.

- FK Wine Bar by the (now closed) Frank's Kitchen will soon open at 770 St. Clair Ave. W. (at Arlington), replacing Prop.
Closed
- It seems the The Rude Boy on Roncey is done; a sign on the window claiming that it's closed “due to a mechanical problem” has been up for months, a reader noticed another sign that was briefly posted on the door saying rent had not been paid and its number is no longer in service.
- Stella, the bar in Bloordale that also served curries, is no more.
