Best chocolate cupcakes I've ever had in my life!! Amazing cookies, cakes, and pastries as well. Wood oven pizza looks good have not tried it yet though. Paninis are decent.

Nino D'aversa Bakery has this concept of food stations which divide up to Deli, Hot Food, Pizza, Dessert... When I walked in I feel a little bit disoriented... (OK I do get confused easily sometimes..) There are these nice seating area with number on the tables, are these places for sit down menu with wait service or where should I get started?
Hot Plate
- Not much choice as I was here for a late lunch... only veal left and only pasta dish was Ravioli with Cheese. The lady really loaded up my plate with Ravioli and I was forced to eat my veggie too (Mushroom).
I found the Veal warmly cold... the Ravioli is ok though.. I always love any form of pasta..
- The whole wheat bun! oh it is so good... dense and fluffy at the same time.. the best part of my lunch
Desserts and Cookies
- Love the display case of desserts.. they have the regular and mini versions of most of their treats. The mini are $1.50 each, while the cookies are $1.30. The chocolate covered puffs with chocolate mousse filling is A-OK... the mousse so smooth......hmmmm and full of it!! Double chocolate delight!!
I don't think I will be eating another hot plate here at Nino D'aversa Bakery as I really not into eating Cafeteria or buffet style food. On the hand I might be back for some of those cute desserts! -

Noticing a NEW Bakery as I drive by a local All-Star Wings I start to wonder what its all about and searched it up online where I noticed there are a few of these floating around in different regions of GTA already.
We went through an Automated Sliding Door? Yup, it's part Trattoria, part Pizzeria, part Deli, part Bakery. We walked in towards the PASTRY and Cafe area right in the center of the store but as it was lunch we had to go to the back corner to stand in line CAFETERIA style to select from a Menu Board that seemed larger than what was displayed in front of us.
Veal Cutlet($8.25) is my GO-TO option when I try places like this and it turned out pretty good and a generous portion that comes with two sides and a BREAD roll. The Veal and sides was good enough for most but as it was a Bakery, I had to taste the roll and just TEARING it apart was a pleasure and tasting it was even better. I left the roll last and as a non-frequent bread person, I have to say I'm a FAN of the roll.
No one seemed to request Paninis but Pizza was a popular choice as well as the Pastas, Stuffed Peppers, and Veal/Chicken Sandwiches. The gentlemen in front of me even got some Tomatoey TRIPE. I will try it next time, yup!
Passing by the cafeteria corner to our way to the dining area which has NICE Trattoria seating and LCDs was the Pizzeria area where 2 cooks were busy using the wood-fired oven structure. The dining area was pretty loud, almost Chinese restaurant LOUD as kids were running around while their parents pick up food and run after a child.
As we left, we stroll by the DESSERTS which seem to look pretty enticing but the BAKERY/BREAD area was somewhat out of place as I didn't notice any patrons make use of that area nor the Deli Counter. If those breads were as GOOD as my bread roll, it should definitely be swamped.
As a reference, I think this place is comparable to St. Phillips Bakery in terms of operations/setup and selection/offerings however each has a different DECOR setting to them where St. Phillips has a more LIVELY Active feel in a compact area while Nino has the CALM Trattoria feel in a more open space.
Good thing I asked if the Bread Roll was FREE with my meal or else I will regret it as it was just placed on the counter to be picked up once you receive your dish from one of the staff. -

went here over the weekend again, this time we had the pizzas. Definitely can recommend them. nice thin crust done very much like in Italy. prices are not bad considering what your getting, we had a large and added a couple extra toppings and it was about $30 for a LARGE pizza.
in the past we have had the chicken and the veal and they are good, as well as the rapini can't complain. only issue I had with the veal sandwich is the bun is too hard, but that is a personal preference thing.
