    Incredible. Ambiance was great. Service was fantastic. Food was top notch. Every bite just made the soul happy. You could taste the freshness of every ingredient that was used and the thought behind each dish. Highly recommend! I’ll definitely be back.

    Food was fantastic. It seemed like our server genuinely forgot about us for 30 minutes. Our waters were empty our entire dinner, I would have ordered a glass of wine with dinner but didn’t get the opportunity. The food runners and support staff did a great job and were the only ones to pay attention to us.

    The food and drinks were all tasty but the portions were really small. We had the beans and kale salad (huge leaves not the easiest to eat) which were super flavourful. The calamari was average The shrimp pasta was briny and bright but shrimps were pretty chopped up. The beef ragu pasta had a good amount of meat and the sauce was rich and scrumptious

    Beautiful dining space, but a few too many tables crammed onto the second floor. Contrary to some of the bad reviews for this place, both the pasta and dessert were good! I would come again.

    Let me say, some people writing these reviews need a reality check. This restaurant is exactly what it is trying to be - hand made quality Italian cuisine at an affordable price. The tuna crudo was the standout appetizer of a strong lineup including the calamari, burrata and focaccia on the side. Pasta’s are fresh made in house and cost 17-29$ a plate, a fair price for dishes made with quality ingredients. We did family style for mains, which we thought were a good portion size, enjoying the gnocchi, lumache and rigatoni. All pastas were delicious but the pappardelle with beef short rib was the group favourite. Cocktails were 16$ across the board, which is cheaper than industry standard in Toronto. Our server Mitch was engaging and helpful with our questions about the menu. 10/10 will return again. Thanks again for the hospitality!

    I had a great time dining here. We ate upstairs. It was a bit loud. Very energetic crowd. I had the calamari, the beef shortrib pasta dish and a bottle of the Leonus Toscana. Finished the meal off with some soft serve ice cream with olive oil and sea salt. All were amazing! 👏🏾

    One of our party is in a wheelchair. In fact we chose the restaurant because it advertises itself as wheelchair accessible. The restaurant was lovely and accessible at the front. However, in order for our friend to get to the restroom, all the guests seated on the aisle side of the tables between our table and the restroom had to stand and push their chairs in in order for our friend to pass by. Obviously they had to do this twice. It is completely unacceptable.

    The calamari and albacore tune crudo was delicious and a good amount of food to start off our meal. We tried 3 pastas; the spaghetti, pappardelle and rigatoni. All pastas were perfectly al dente. I would also highly recommend the vanilla frozen yogurt with the apple compote to end your meal. Overall a great first experience and looking forward to coming back soon!
