However--if the first couple who arrives is a) older and b) clearly has a member with mobility issues, why would you choose to seat them at the most awkward table in the house, which involved mildly hoisting oneself up to get into the chairs, and then realizing that the chairs are too small for the table. That sort of weird aesthetic. Then the second couple shows up with a baby. Stroller will be a foot or so well below eye level, and no chance of a high chair. "Could we please move to one of the many tables outside instead?" Should not be greeted by snark, nasty asides, and cursory eye rolling. Grow up. This went on throughout the whole meal. To hell with you, who should have been old enough (late 30s?) to know better. Why not enforce the no-smoking policy better, instead? You let three guys in shirts that last fit them in middle school smoke within 10 feet of us. And the baby.

A Wonderful Surprise at A Tavola in Whitby!…read more I hadn't been back to A Tavola in almost 10 years--ever since becoming vegan--because I assumed there wouldn't be much on the menu for me. Last night, my friends and I decided to go anyway, knowing the quality was always great... and I'm so glad we did! To my surprise and delight, Chef Vito let us know that all of their pastas are vegan and he could easily modify the sauces to suit my diet. The food was absolutely delicious--it tasted just like the meals I had in Italy. The quality, attention to detail, and service were even better than I remembered. I started with the fennel and orange salad, followed by a beautifully adapted pasta dish, and every bite was perfection. We left so happy that we chose to support a locally owned restaurant instead of a corporate chain. It's such a joy to celebrate the small businesses in our community that truly care about their craft. We'll definitely be back!

This is not a fast serve restaurant. First we got the Branzino which was pretty good and tender. Then we got a pasta dish which had no flavour and was blend so probably wouldn't order again. We also got the ribeye which was pretty good. For dessert, we had the apple blossom with gelato and toffee and it was delicious. They also had lots of mocktails options which we appreciate. Overall, this is a decent choice for Italian when you're in the Whitby area but pack lots of patience and you'll be fine.

The food is good…read more However the main section of the restaurant has now became less enjoyable because they crammed in more tables forgetting they are catering to adults not children or midgets. I just came back arriving early The restaurant was substantially full. We were seated at a table with only 16 inches of space between the back of the chair and table. We tried sliding the heavy table but there was no were to slide it too as the other chairs were backed into another customer.3 rolls were put at the end of the table so when an attempt to use your arms in this small space a large drink was toppled over. Soda all over an entire outfit dripping down the leg from the crotch and breast. BECAUSE IF SITTING IN WET...THE MEAL COULD NOT BE ENJOYED....because it was difficult to use your arms and being drenched. THIS IS NOT AN ENJOYABLE PLACE TO DINE...unless you are lucky to get a table when there are few clients. Although the food is good...it's not a place to entertain friends or heaven forbid a date nite. I know why they're busy...it's because Whitby really lacks fine dining restaurants. Will I return ? I purchased a seizable gift certificate...so possibly use for take out. Without the gift certificate..the answer would be no. I would rather drive further so that a dinner nite out could be enjoyed TOO BAD WHEN GREED RELINQUISHES TO SERVICE

The vibe inside is very bright and open on the ground floor. The second floor has larger tables, and a bit more dark and refined. But the downstairs shouts "Family!", and there were a couple there while eating. It's lonely eating solo sometimes, but on the other hand, you can usually get a bar seat when the place is packed, which is what I did. Service was quick and cheerful. They have an extensive menu of Italian dishes, but I wanted pizza, so I ordered their red sauce choice called "Parmigiana". (When do I never want pizza? That's a good question!) The pizza came in good time, and was the perfect size for someone like me. Two normal people could also probably share it. I shed a little teat when it came, because it was uncut, with a steak knife and fork for me to do the honors. Not a tear from the pizza, but from good memories of Mangia E Bevi, whete they served pizza the same way...sob. The pizza came with lots of parmesan cheese added either after or late in the baking process, so it wasn't gross and burnt. Also thin sliced eggplant, with that goopy yet chewy texture I like in my eggplant on pizzas. The sauce was savory with a hint of tomato sweetness, and the crust was chewy and a bit darkly blistered but not burnt. Wonderful! A great pizza place, and they do have a huge menu of things besides pizza. I overheard one trio say they drove three hours to get there, and they said it was worth it. And I would definitely agree.

First off, the man working, who ended up being the owner, was super friendly! It is him and his wife that own and run the restaurant. They were very grateful for our business. To be honest, I wasn't expecting much as the inside of the restaurant feels more like a diner. They offer breakfast, salads, pasta, panini, and pizzas. We ordered a Caesar salad which was great and decent portion. We also ordered the Penne Rose - highly recommend. They offer large portions, the sauce was rich and the pancetta was delicious. This was comparable to high-end restaurant quality - reminded me of the Penza dish from Grazie except under $15! We also ordered the alfredo pasta and this was very tasty. They have a wood burning pizza oven so of course we had to try it and we were not disappointed. The fungi pizza was delicious and the large was under $15! I would recommend this spot if you are looking for a really good, filling, and inexpensive (relatively) meal! Also, this is one of the small businesses I'd like to continue supporting because the owner is lovely.

With the team's participation in our first tournament, it gave us the chance to hunt down places to eat in the good town of Ajax. As the saying goes, the 'show must go on'. A Friday early evening game that will take us to about a 9:00pm finish would only allow us to grab a bite post-game. We needed something quick since we have to drive back home to the west side, so pizza would be a logical choice. We could have settled with your run of the mill chain pizza joints, but as usual I've opted to take a bit of a detour to support a local business. The moment we got into the car, we put in the order for a small Canadian pizza and by the time we got to the restaurant, the pizza was ready for us. We cracked open the box and my son and I started devouring the piping hot pizza with pepperoni, bacon, ham and mushrooms. I like the crust as it was somewhere in the middle in terms of thickness. There was a slight crunch to the surface and a good chewy texture in the middle. We were trying to eat fast, but we also tried to proceed with caution since we didn't want to burn the inside of our mouths off. It was pretty damn good pizza. Navona deserves your visit if you happen to be in the area.

It's personal preference, I like my steak with just salt and pepper without sauce. My fault for not reading the menu correctly. The sides of purée and veggies were great.

Every dish I had was very good. For this meal I ordered something different, the shrimp stuffed catfish. Never had catfish so this dish was calling me. The sauce was very tasty and had a nice kick of heat to finish. Catfish was good and the shrimp stuffing was more like a meat ball texture and not really whole shrimp like I thought. Service was very good. Our waitress was chatty and was joking around with us which was fun. Ambiance is more on the rustic side almost had a saloon feel, partly because of the old building but it was quaint. There was plenty of free parking in the rear which was convenient. All in KB is a good option if you are looking for an above average restaurant in the east end.
