Beaconsfield Village puts you on West Queen West, which also means the restaurants on Dundas W, King W, and Ossington are quite close.
Ossington has a lot of trendy restaurants packed into a 500 m stretch between Queen and Dundas. I dine at Union (72 Ossington) the most, which is a bistro that serves lunch and dinner. Soos has good southeast Asian food. There’s a Cuban place called La Cubana, as well as some Mexican places. Superpoint pizza, Pizzeria Libretto. Favorites Thai BBQ. Lots of options, mostly fairly upscale. There’s a new Vietnamese streetfood place I haven’t tried that @calam1ty recently mentioned in this [Toronto] Vietnamese downtown thread . There are also 2 cheap Vietnamese restaurants serving pho and bun, and a coffee shop that sells banh mi.
I have to admit, I haven’t eaten in Queen West too much over the past 10 years. The Drake Hotel is close to Beaconsfield, and it used to have a decent restaurant. I haven’t heard anything about the food over the past 7 years, which I am guessing means it has slipped.
I sort of set up some threads that I’ve started by theme, and others by neighbourhood, and crosspost.
The Danforth Music Hall is a 5 to 8 minute walk east of Greektown. Greektown is less Greek these days, than it once was, but it is still the heart of the Greek community for TO.
That said, the Greek food on the Danforth isn’t better than what you’d find on Parc Ave, or Laval, so I wouldn’t go out of my way for Greek on the Danforth if you’re living in MTL.
I think the food options overall are better near Beaconsfield Village than the Danforth Music Hall.
There are some good pubs on the same block as the Danforth Music Hall (Allen’s which also has a back patio, and the Edmund Burke) and one of my favorite bakeries, Dough Bake Shop, is also nearby, although it will be closed by the time your concert begins.
It might be easier if you let us know what kind of food you want to eat, and your price range.
Here is a thread about some restaurants on Dundas W.
