This place was fantastic! The food was amazing. Pizza was delicious and the fried calamari had zero rubbery texture to it all; one of the best calamari dishes I've had. We came fory mom's birthday and Calvin went above and beyond in his service...he was accommodating, attentive and made sure we were completely satisfied. Will definitely be coming back!

The photo is the special – seafood soup with white wine and saffron. I didn’t care for it. The other guest totally enjoyed what they ordered. I guess for myself I didn’t make the right choice. The service and atmosphere are fine. I will go back.

My friend and I had dinner here tonight and the food was good as expected. But our server, Calvin, ruined our experience! He came by our table 10-15 times (lost count!) that didn’t let us comfortably enjoy our time. He was in rush to take our order while the whole time that we were there, more than half of tables were empty and not at peak time. He even asked us twice if we want tea, coffee or desert and when we said no because we were pretty full, he brought us the bill! We felt very unwelcome as he wanted us out quickly! This all happened in an hour. If you go there and he’s your server, just ask for someone else and enjoy your food and time.

Very nice spaghetti and meatballs. Meatballs feels home made and delectable, the sauce is just right, not too salty or sour. Fried Caramari has a slight spicy tang, also delicious. Shrimp Portobello Pasta was also very tasty, light and with perfectly grilled shrimps. Good service and right level of attention by the waiter. Not too intrusive, but everything cleared in short order to keep things tidy. One of the best Italian places I've visited in Toronto yet. Will return.
