1. Mangia & Bevi
Toronto, ON M5R 4L5
(416) 203-1635
With all the 'rustic Italian' restos opening lately, it's easy to overlook Mangia & Bevi, a brother and sister run restaurant which has been around since 2005. But anyone who is willing to give this place a shot will be in for a treat!
I imagine this…More »
2. Paese Ristorante
Toronto, ON M5V 1J5
(416) 599-6585
Category:
Italian
Neighbourhoods: Entertainment District, Downtown Core
I generally avoid this strip of restaurants on King West, as I find them usually overpriced and surviving solely because of tourists and theatre-goers. But I decided to give Paese a try during the Telus Taste of Tuesday promotion and had a lovely…More »
3. Campagnolo
Toronto, ON M6J 1V3
(416) 364-4785
Categories:
Tapas/Small Plates,
Italian
Neighbourhood: Little Italy
I came on a Friday night in a party of 4. I almost gave up on this place... Almost a week in advance, I phoned to make a reservation. No one answered, so I left a message. 2 days pass, no call. So I decide to try calling them again. I call at…More »
4. Negroni - CLOSED
Toronto, ON M6G 1A4
(416) 413-0005
Categories:
Sandwiches,
Italian
Neighbourhoods: Little Italy, Palmerston
Finally got to check out this place this week and was quite impressed. Tiny but nice little patio overlooking College, attentive service, and a helluva panini! Minus one star because I seemed to catch them on a day that they were running out of…More »
5. Sidecar
Toronto, ON M6G 1B2
(416) 536-7000
Categories:
Modern European,
Canadian (New)
Neighbourhoods: Little Italy, Palmerston, Bickford Park
Great place all around! I came with a friend for dinner on Friday. When I phoned to make a reservation they informed me that there was another reservation for our table in 2 hours and asked if it was okay. I appreciated them letting me know up…More »
6. Mangiacake Ristorante & Catering
Toronto, ON M5T 1W4
(416) 260-5156
Categories:
Italian,
Coffee & Tea
Neighbourhood: Downtown Core
Mangiacake is a great little cafe, specializing in paninis. I used to eat lunch here a lot when I was working at Mount Sinai Hospital. It's also a good place to eat if you are visiting the AGO.
They have a small patio out front (on McCaul) and a…More »
7. Brownstone Bistro
Toronto, ON M4Y 1Z5
(416) 920-6288
Categories:
Caterers,
Breakfast & Brunch,
Italian
Neighbourhood: Downtown Core
This is a pretty standard neighbourhood joint. It's a solid, low-key place for dinner if you're in the area and want something nice-ish but not expensive. I came with a friend who recently moved into a nearby condo. Immediately, we were warmly…More »
8. Angelo's Hot Table - CLOSED
Toronto, ON M5E 2A1
(647) 347-7454
Neighbourhood: Harbourfront
(3.5 stars)
MASSIVE portions and great value. For around $8, the lasagna or the shepherd's pie are good for 2, or at least 1.5 meals.
The food itself is hearty and perfect when you feel like someone homemade but are too lazy/exhausted to actually…More »
9. Ciccio's Pizza and Pasta
Fantastic, simple Italian fare for delivery or take-out. I came here because it's close to the Toronto Western Hospital and very convenient for picking up lunch/dinner to bring back to work. The pastas and pizzas are made to order, so you will wait…More »
10. Lafelicita Bakery and Pasticceria Ltd
Nice family-run Italian bakery/cafe. I come here sometimes for breakfast. For under $10 incl. tax you can get a yummy, home-cooked meal (I like the omelettes) and a latte in comfortable surroundings. Then you can bring something home, like freshly…More »
11. Trattoria Mercatto
(2.5 stars)
Sorry to bring the rating down, but I was pretty disappointed with my experience here. Came on a Friday night, so it was busy. My friend and I waited 15 minutes for a table, which was fine. The place was buzzing and the decor is warm and…More »
12. Parkette
Toronto, ON M6J 1G3
(416) 536-3883
Category:
Italian
Neighbourhoods: Niagara, West Queen West, Trinity Bellwoods
Parkette is a charming new addition to the Trinity-Bellwoods neighbourhood. I came for dinner on a weeknight with a friend. The space is warm and inviting. There are a few tables along one side of the room and a long communal table on the other.…More »
13. L'unita
(3.5 stars)
I came here for Summerlicious in a group of 6 for a girls night. They gave us the long communal table with high chairs by the bar. The place is dark and lounge-y. The flatscreen TV plays classic Italian movies. On this evening, it was "La…More »
14. Black Skirt
(2.5 STARS)
After hearing good things about this place from multiple sources, I really wanted to like this place more when I came for lunch. But I don't know if it was just the dish I ordered or the fact that the College streetcar took forever to get…More »
15. Archeo Trattoria
Toronto, ON M5A 3C4
(416) 815-9898
Category:
Italian
Neighbourhoods: Distillery District, West Don Lands
Archeo has been an old standby whenever I'm in the Distillery District. I still remember years ago when Archeo and Boiler House were the only sit-down restaurants at 55 Mill Street! Although there are now plenty more options, I still like Archeo and…More »
16. Bruda
Toronto, ON M6G 1A4
(416) 927-0222
Category:
Canadian (New)
Neighbourhoods: Little Italy, Palmerston
3.5 stars
Bruda is a cute, unpretentious European resto in the space previously occupied by Negroni and later, Carpano. Not sure why restaurants here have not done well? Anyways, the interior looks similar to before but brighter and more open:…More »
