The ingredients were also very fresh. The restaurant was quite crowded, so the service sometimes felt a bit rushed, but it was still very efficient.

The crust had that perfectly spotted browning and had a satisfying chew to it. The pizza was also on a floppier side, which I love. It tasted great, especially with some chili oil that they have on the table. The service was pretty mediocre, unfortunately. It took a while for our server to get to us and he seemed a bit checked out. Getting the bill at the end of the meal was also a bit of a struggle. I don't necessarily blame him but it definitely was not ideal for a work lunch. Overall, the pizza was fantastic but a bit slow for a work lunch. We didn't necessarily rush our lunch but it took about an hour. I think I'd only come again when I have more time to spare.

The wings were extremely dry I couldn't even tell if they were baked or fried. They were so overdone that the bones were white and dry enough I was able to bite in them. Most of them went uneaten. Really disappointed, especially since I remember this place used to be good. Sadly, the quality has dropped a lot. I won't be coming back.

The prices are very reasonable (from $16 for a 12" pizza, $15 for a large pasta), and the food comes out fast -- a great place to grab a bite when on the go, or before an event downtown. What impressed me was how friendly and welcoming the staff were. There are several tables for casual dine-in, as well as a small patio.

Overall, we were both impressed with the good simple pizza.

Pros: - This location was running a promotion where all $15 pizzas on their menu were discounted to $10 and the $18 pizzas were discounted to $13. - There doesn't seem to be a limit to what you can put on the craft your own which makes it pretty worth it - you can try multiple toppings. - The pizzas are made very quickly right in front of you in a stone oven and has a great crisp thin crust. Cons: - The downside of a thin crust is that the pizza gets soggy if not eaten immediately, it is not as good the next day.

This place gets a solid 4.5/5 for its authentic southern Italian food and very friendly & attentive…read moreservice. It has a very homey, old-school Italian American restaurant ambience - the opposite of the stylish, hipster or touristy restaurant vibe. Apparently this restaurants gets a lot of regulars, and I could see why. As soon as you walk in, you feel like you're transported back to the 1960s with the red-and-white checkered tablecloths, red chairs, old-style wax candles, brick walls, and a large black-and-white photo of an Italian family on the wall (perhaps the founder or owner's?). I could see this place being a movie set for films that need an old, classic Italian American restaurant as a setting. In addition to the décor, I love the 1960s music being played in the background. Size-wise, the inside of the restaurant isn't that big so it feels very cozy. It can get very busy and crowded after 5 pm, as most people seem to come here for dinner. We came during lunch hour and we were the only patrons there. The southern Italian touches are very apparent in most of their dishes - with heavy reliance on olive oil, tomato-based sauces (especially in the fish and seafood dishes), fresh seafood, herbs, peppers, and vegetables such as eggplant. This is in contrast to northern Italian cuisine that is characterized by rich, creamy dishes using butter, lard, and cheeses, and puts more emphasis on rice, polenta, and meat-heavy dishes (where as seafood is more prevalent in the south). Dishes that we tried: 1) Baccala (Pan-Seared Black Cod) - This was the BEST and my favourite dish here. The black cod had a crispy exterior and flaky interior, and came with roasted mini potatoes and mixed vegetables (zucchini, red bell pepper, Brussels sprouts, eggplant) roasted with garlic -- such a well-rounded and wholesome dish. The roasted mini potatoes were so flavourful, and the vegetables had a nice char. I asked for the puttanesca sauce on the side, as the fish was already flavourful on its own without the sauce. But the sauce was better than I expected - it contained actual whole chunks of cherry tomatoes and olives. 2) Steamed Mixed Fish & Seafood in Tomato Sauce - This dish wasn't on the website menu, but it was on the printed menu in the restaurant. It reminded me of cioppino (Italian-American mixed seafood stew with tomato sauce, herbs, and spices). It came presented as wrapped inside aluminum tin foil, which the server then opened in front of us on the table with steam coming out. The fish was salmon, and seafood consisted of mussels and shrimps. This dish was just alright. For almost $50, there wasn't much seafood. 3) Pizza Funghi - I liked the very thin and crispy crust, and the sliced roasted mushrooms as toppings, but I wasn't a fan of the "truffled honey" they added on top of the pizza. I didn't taste any truffle, and the honey made it very sweet. Not a fan of sweet pizza. 4) SIDES: Rapini, Brussels Sprouts, Mushrooms - They got bonus points for being able to customize the sides. They didn't have asparagus that day, so they substituted it for steamed Brussels sprouts with garlic instead - which was heavenly. The Brussels sprouts weren't overcooked at all, and they were generous with the garlic (anything with extra garlic gets extra thumbs up from me). The rapini came out chopped with a side of lemon wedge. Mushrooms weren't on the menu as a side, but we asked and they were able to make a simple side of just mushrooms. Overall the vegetables got 9/10. The chef was very friendly as he came out and talked to us. The server was extremely attentive. Great service overall.

Nice local Italian restaurant that is enjoyed by us locals as well as those who come down for shows…read moreat the St Lawrence ctr for the arts and the Meridian Hall as well as sports fan here for games. They have a great stock of wines and an impressive drink list that we don't get to enjoy as we can't handle drinks these days. We do enjoy the food and the friendly service immensely tho. Lots of options for shareable apps; excellent options on pizzas and pastas; and I am always impressed with their mains (as someone that has to limit carbs, options can be limited at some Italian restos). They are also understanding of reasonable diet requests. They have gluten-free options as well. It is more of a "quiet" restaurant in terms of the clientele chatter, at least for the times I was there, so I can hear the music they play ("oldies"!!!!)

This place may not be a Toronto staple in the way that Fresca is, but is still a DAMN good slice and deserves the 5 star rating. Ambiance is stunning at night, best when there is no rush.
