Best Restaurants with a Wood Oven in Dundas

Lovely restaurant in the refurbished "Sheridan Mall." So nice to have a quality eatery in the neighbourhood. Love that they have a Happy Hour plus specials. Our server (wish I had got her name) was outstanding. My husband dropped his knife on the floor and she noticed from across the restaurant, then brought a new one immediately. The food was tasty and I enjoyed my cannelloni. My husband had the lobster pasta which was also good but tiny pieces of the "canner" shell got into his meal as he removed the exterior. That's the only reason for a 4 out of 5 on food and value.

As always the food was excellent. Thanks to the chef and kitchen staff. My husband had the lasagna and I had one of the specials, the tortellini in a rose sauce with spinach, mushroom and chicken. We finished off with a perfect piece of tiramisu. Thanks to Vince for looking after us and recommending a lovely wine.

I really enjoyed my pizza at Gatto. The service was excellent and very friendly. It was a Friday night so there were a number of families having dinner. I had my 2 young grandchildren with me and the server was particularly kind to them. Our pizzas arrived in record time. Unfortunately, there was a table with 2 young undisciplined children who thought they were at a playground or McDonalds. The 2 mothers were blind to their children's behaviour and actions for a fine dining restaurant. This made for an unpleasant atmosphere for the other people in the restaurant and the servers too. As the restaurant filled up the noise level understandably increased. I loved the music that was playing but my suggestion might be to lower the volume so it's not competing with the conversations in the room.

I am always looking for an excuse to visit Goodfella's. Some say it might be a tad pricey but it is worth it, we always order too much but then we get to take it home with us, so we get to enjoy it again the next day. My only challenge with Goodfella's is that - if you book a large group you have to leave a credit card number and agree to a minimum charge... I arrange a lot of parties/friends nights out and I haven't been able to bring my party to Goodfella's because of this. I understand why they do it, but we spend a lot of money monthly on food and drink so feel that Goodfella's is missing out on this. I know the wait list for tables is long so maybe they feel they don't need to cater to larger parties, but I think this is a great shame.
