automatically summarizedThe Garden Gate Restaurant, in the Toronto neighborhood of The Beaches and also known as The Goof, is a local restaurant that got its nickname through a historical accident. Originally, a neon sign reading GOOD FOOD was mounted above the entrance, but when two letters burned out, it read GOO FOO, which residents quickly shortened to THE GOOF. The restaurant is located on Queen Street East and offers its guests the option to order food. In addition to dining in, delivery of meals is also available, making it easier for customers in the area to reach.

An local institution since 1952 serving Canadian Chinese cuisine, breakfast, hamburgers. Try blueberry pancakes. The restaurant's nickname comes from the restaurant's neon sign when half the lights for the words the "GOOD FOOD" burnt out leaving only "GOO F" illuminated. The effect is best seen on the east side of the restaurant's sign.
