Best Contemporary Italian Restaurants in High Park

Our experience was absolutely fantastic starting right when we stepped out of the elevator. We were promptly greeted and shown our table. The server was amazing. His knowledge of the drink choices made it easy for us to decide what we wanted to go with our dinner. We had the tasting menu and definitely recommend it. Everything came out with a beautiful presentation. The food was prepared perfectly and the flavours were amazing. Everything was excellent! We very much look forward to going back again!

Special lunch with my daughters before the theatre. So happy we decided to dine here. Everything was lovely! Will have to return to try more menu items!

Service was some of the best I’ve had in a long time, and the food is incredible. Don’t miss the crostata di mela so delicious!

We had an absolutely amazing experience at DaNico! The food and wine pairing was an incredible experience and we would definitely recommend this restaurant to all our family and friends for a special occasion or a memorable night. Thank you chef Daniele for the perfectly curated menu, thank you Nazzareno for the outstanding service, and Jeff for the wine tour you took us on. We can’t wait to come back!

Bartender was amazing, pizza really good, veal parm was over breaded and tomato sauce not Italian. Green salad with lots of mint lightly dressed made the meal much better. Place was beautifully lit, bathrooms new and clean, decorated nicely, try the piano piano special drink, soooo good. I think bartender was Ben or Dan, cute red head all tatted up with some real skills making yummy drinks and taking orders. We sat at the bar and received excellent service. I think we should have tried a white pasta and more pizzas. Really good. Lesa and Joe. No bathroom on main floor so stay sober enough to climb stairs.
