Review from c k.

The food is fantastic. But what really sets this restaurant apart , besides the elegant yet warm and inviting surroundings is the service. After we order off-menu, which we were encouraged to do ("What do you feel like eating, we'll make you anything you want"), comes Minnie with a bottle of Limoncello and a couple of glasses. Eating here feels like you're a guest in someone's home, and after a couple of visits, it feels like you're having dinner in the home of your really good friend.
This is when dining out, feels like dining in. -

Such a great little place!
I went here for a work lunch with some colleagues, and we sat on the (tiny, adorable) back patio. The food was delicious, and they knew we were in a rush so the food came out very quickly.
The place has just the right amount of Italian charm, without going over to the "cheesy" side. I love the sculptures on the patio!
It's a little pricey for lunch ($17 for my gnocci in rose sauce with shrimp, around $15 for a pizza), but if someone else is paying... definitely a good stop!
Also, not only did we get warm bread, but also bruscetta! Can't go wrong. -

A cozy little restaurant tucked away on the boundary between the Annex and Yorkville, Fieramosca does the classic trattoria style as well as I've seen in this town. The food is delicious and the service is great.
While unfortunately a little too pricey to be a regular stop for me, I have to say that my experience there last year for a work function was wonderful. Booking the reservation was a breeze and all we had to do was show up. Within minutes we were sitting at our table and enjoying bread and drinks as we perused the menu. We ordered a few pizzas as an appetizer (it was a large group). The bomba (sausage and peppers) was tasty and the quattro stagioni (artichokes, mushrooms and prosciutto) was out of this world. The crust was thin and crisp and the toppings were fresh tasting and flavorful.
For my main course, I had the Scallopina Hotel De Paris, which is a fancy name for veal, salmon and veggies in a tasty piccatta style sauce. Some of the other people with me had equally delicious dishes, some of which I tasted, but for the life of me I can't remember which ones.
The service was remarkable, our waiter was quite doting and helpful to answer questions or bring us more bread, wine, etc. Our water glasses and drinks were regularly topped up, to the point where it seemed to be happening all on its own. We had delicious coffee and some of us had dessert, and then we all rolled out of the cozy restaurant into the chilly night in full-on food comas. A great restaurant for special occasions, I hope to go back again soon. -

Given the abundance of mediocre and over priced restaurants in this neck of the woods, it's great to have a place that serves good standard fare with service to boot. Prices are reasonable and the atmosphere is old school here.
A very good choice for Italian overall. -

It's like a house turned restaurant. Feels cramped when you're waiting for a table at the front, but when you actually get seated, it feels really comfortable.
The service is laid back and friendly. The menu is Italian and extensive. My favourite is that any of the fish dishes come in several ways: steamed, grilled or whole. If you love fish, this is your joint for sure. -

Wife and I went here for dinner while in Toronto for the weekend and must day what a great little place with great Italian food, great selection of wine and amazing service. The place is small but that adds to experience. When we called to make reservations, they only had 5:30 or 9p reservations available and it was well worth waiting till 9p and not going somewhere else. If you are in the area, you won't go wrong!

I went out for a nice dinner with some family here one evening. The staff is incredibly nice. It probably didn't hurt that my father is Italian and he spent a good portion of the evening chatting up the waiter. He told us not to bother looking at the menu and that he would have the kitchen make whatever we were in the mood for.
The food was good, but a little disappointing given the price. (Given that I'm a student, my opinion on financial matters should be taken with a grain of salt.) That said, still a lovely place to pass an evening! -

Spectacular food, service, and location. A block away from all the noise, yet still is cozy and welcoming. The carpaccio and veal scallopini I had were wonderful, as was the Barbera on the wine list. I cannot recommend highly enough; make sure to ask for Giancarlo though, he's fantastic.

yum. pasta carbonara. yum. i'm always searching for a good pasta carbonara. the best i've had was in florence, it's kind of tough to beat. but fieramosca definitely provided me with their best version. at first glance the restaurant looks tiny, but there's the main dining room, an outdoor patio, upstairs dining, and an upstairs outdoor patio. service was a little slower than what i'm used to, but hey no worries. overall the food, company, and ambiance were all really good.

My aunt lives a few blocks away so when I meet up with her for dinner, we often go here. They know her name and reconize me there and we call it our "Moonstruck" restuarant (if you haven't seen this movie, rent it now!!) I love their gnocchi quattro fromagi (please pardon the spelling) and I've had their Spegetti carbonara a few times and loved it as well. Their patio is amazing, fairly lights statues, and despite being near two bars, its so quiet. The staff treats us amazingly and I adore their tiramisu. Definately a great place for a date (a bit pricy) but the atmosphere is quiet and enjoyable.
