We made a phone reservation for a Friday evening dinner with friends, excited to return to Fazio's…read moreafter more than 12 years. Upon arrival, however, we were met with a very large wedding party gathering in the restaurant. The noise level was overwhelming, and we were seated very close to the event. This was never mentioned at the time of our reservation. Had we been informed, we likely would have chosen a different venue. Unfortunately, the issues continued. Three out of the four entrées we wanted were unavailable, which was disappointing given the limited menu. When our meals did arrive, they were brought out before the salads we had ordered -- simply forgotten. Later, before asking if we wanted more wine, coffee, or dessert (which we did), we were asked how we intended to pay the bill. It left us feeling rushed and unwelcome. The food itself was just okay -- not particularly memorable and not especially traditional or authentic Italian. The crème brûlée was especially poor and something I would strongly advise skipping. Overall, this was a disappointing experience. Legend of Fazio's may get another visit someday, but likely not for another 12 years -- or longer -- once this experience has faded from memory.

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.

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!

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.

Definitely get the extra sauce! Makes every bite extra delicious. Be aware though that this is messy to eat, even with a knife and fork. After paying for our order, we were given a menu with coupons to use for our next visit. There's no place to eat inside, as this is a take out only restaurant.

Basically a take out/pick up place with a bench to sit/wait for walk-ins like myself. Notice many customers ordered in advance and picked up to avoid waiting time. As soon as you walk in, the smell of dough, pizzas, Italian cooking smacks you in the face like a Mack truck crashing through a marshmallow factory. I ordered the small pepperoni pizza and their "infamous" Panzerotti (fried of course). Waited 15mins, counter staff were friendly and helpful, answered my noob questions with the patience of a saint. Rushed home, skidding over the road ice and nearly grazing the huge snow banks on the side roads. Panzerotti where have you been all my life. Similar to Calzone but thinner and much larger. Golden crunchy goodness with a significant cheese pull. I choose the meat sauce filling (Xtra $2), well worth it. Staff recommended the garlic dip (Xtra $1.50), brought the Panzerotti to a higher level. I was tempted to eat the whole Panzerotti all at once, glad my brain warned me to eat only half which was more than enough. The small pizza had a good ratio of cheese/sauce to crust, every bite was pure joy. Pizza crust had a chewy, slightly salty flavor profile. Not the best, dough/crust above average, then again I'm a little bias hanging out in New York's Little Italy during my misspent youth gorging myself on New York style pizza slices. Mama, I think I found my favorite neighborhood Italian take out place. Can't wait to try their veal/chicken parmigiana sandwiches.

The best part about this place is the very friendly, warm service. Amazing people. My biggest critique is the pizza and the veggie in particular. The pizza is watery and this is likely because they put raw veggies on the pizza before it goes in the oven. An easy fix is to quickly sauté the veggie first before baking on the pizza. There was also no flavour. Just very disappointing. Kids enjoyed the cheese but in my view overall it's too pricey for what you get.

Hardly any meat - was just a mass of noodles and sauce with cheese and no shape. Guess I should have known better when ordering the Manicotti today. I was expecting it to be meat filled ( and btw it was not designated as Cheese Manicotti). Filled with an awful bland white cheese and covered in mozzarella. Sorry -- for me it was inedible. Went in the bin. So while we may come back to you for the odd pizza - it's safe to say we won't be back for anything else. So only 1/2 of us enjoyed our meal. So much for supporting local. :-( For the restaurant- it's awful there are no descriptions in any online menu. You should describe this as Cheese Manicotti.

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.
