| - I remember my first experience with Libretto 4 years ago at the Ossington location. I was smarter back then as I had just the pizza and I remember walking away wanting more. A few weeks ago at the University Ave location I made the mistake of sharing a few apps with my dining companions. It's not that the apps weren't good, really good in fact (warm olives, calamari, arugula salad) but I was too full to truly relish the main event, the awesome pizza! A few notes about the location and atmosphere: spacious, tasteful decor, reasonable noise level even when the place was full, and spectacular service!! We sat at the bar because all the tables were full and it really felt like we got the royal treatment. We ordered a few different pizzas and I had the basic margherita which was as good as I remembered from the old location years ago. I couldn't try the other pizzas with meat but it appeared they were appreciated by my dining companions. I had as well a decent red wine (1/4 litre for $16), sparkling water ($3 for unlimited refills for our entire group) and delicious bread and oil to start (you will be asked if you really want it before they set it down- you really don't need it, believe me). I'm very likely to return to this location. One of the reasons I didn't go back to Ossington was due to the long wait and small, crowded, seating. Their pizza at either location still stands out to be one of the best in this city.
