Toronto's Best Italian Restaurants
See All Lists
1. Dimmi Bar & Trattoria
Toronto, ON M5R 1A8
Canada
(416) 975-1100
Category:
Italian
Neighbourhood: Yorkville
It didn't occur to me until recently that this place takes reservations, and at busy times I'd highly recommend one. It's not unlikely that you'll spot some of Toronto's sports glitterati while you're at Dimmi (I've seen both Tie Domi and Andrea…More »
2. Mercatto
Toronto, ON M5C 2E3
Canada
(416) 366-4567
Category:
Italian
Neighbourhood: Downtown Core
Mercatto: now with more birthdays! Mercatto was bustling with birthday celebrations last night, including Jen S's 25th. I ordered the Margherita Pizza this time around, which naturally was ENORMOUS and nearly impossible to finish (split it between…More »

Mercatto has landed. I enjoyed a wonderfully romantic (heheh) meal at Mercatto with my pal Jen S.… Read more »
3. Mangia & Bevi
Toronto, ON M5R 4L5
Canada
(416) 203-1635
If you didn't have a cool friend like Angela H. to tell you what's hot in the city, you'd never find a place like M&B, which stands for Mangia & Bevi ("food and drink" in Italian). It's tucked away on the first floor of 260 King Street East, which is…More »
4. Queen's Pasta Cafe
Toronto, ON M6S 1N8
Canada
(416) 766-0993
Category:
Italian
Neighbourhoods: Bloor-West Village, Swansea
Reading one mediocre review after another made me terrified to return here after a year's absence, but I was pleased to see things are just as I remember them. The daily specials remain as uninspired as always (seafood, chicken and lamb entree) but…More »

5. Terroni
Toronto, ON M6J 1E8
Canada
(416) 504-0320
Category:
Italian
Neighbourhoods: Niagara, West Queen West, Trinity Bellwoods
Yes it's true - they don't take reservations and won't allow ANY substitutions on the menu, but Terroni has to be doing something right because they regularly have a lineup out the door, the kitchen and bar are always bustling with activity, all of…More »
6. Gio Rana's Really Really Nice Restaurant
Toronto, ON M4M 1L7
Canada
(416) 469-5225
Categories:
Italian,
Tapas/Small Plates
Neighbourhood: Leslieville
Still my favourite, and consistently wonderful. All of the servers look happy to be working there. Try to get Josh, the dude that looks like a cuter David Arquette, as your server. He's the best of the best.
Lovely ambiance, terrific food, great…More »

7. One Of A Kind
Toronto, ON M6J 1E9
Canada
(416) 203-2229
Category:
Italian
Neighbourhoods: Niagara, West Queen West, Trinity Bellwoods
If you're looking for an authentic Italian dining experience for under $10, you'd better hotfoot it over to One Of A Kind for a charming lunch or dinner. Yes, the owner and chef is Asian and the restaurant describes itself as "Italian with an Asian…More »
8. Passione Italiana Ristorante
Toronto, ON M4T 1Y7
Canada
(416) 966-3999
Category:
Italian
Neighbourhoods: Yonge and St. Clair, Deer Park
La Passione Italiana's gnocchi pomodoro with pink sauce ranks as my #1 favourite gnocchi in Toronto. It is absolutely UNMATCHED in quality and taste. Super creamy tomato sauce and very tender gnocchi that's always cooked to perfection.
I have never…More »
9. Pizza Rustica
Toronto, ON M5V 3P5
Canada
(416) 260-0200
Along with Terroni and Pizza Libretto, Pizza Rustico completes my triad of "favourite pizza places" in Toronto. I have always had great service and an enjoyable time there. They have a decent selection of pizza topping combinations as well as many…More »
10. Mercatto
Toronto, ON M5H 2S8
Canada
(416) 306-0467
Category:
Italian
Neighbourhoods: Financial District, Downtown Core
Someone's got some catching up to do - this is certainly no Mercatto on Toronto Street (http://www.yelp.ca/biz...).
Our server either didn't know how OR didn't have the upper body strength to properly grate parmagiano reggiano, which was a little…More »
