This is probably my least favorite "Italian" restaurant in Toronto. I went here twice on different occasions with colleagues before writing it off, but both experiences were sub-par to competing restaurants. I guess I should've known - any Italian restaurant that doesn't have true Italian chefs probably won't satisfy. I've tried both the pomodoro spaghetti and the pesce rigatoni. Both pasta dishes have been overcooked and clumpy, as if the pasta has been sitting out for too long.
The service is just about as good as the food - marginal at best. I asked for chicken to be substituted in the pesce sauce, but the kitchen was extremely unacommodating. Most Italian restaurants will happily substitute different meats, sauces, or vegetarian options - it's not that difficult! Overall, $17 + tax for a pasta dish here is so not worth when I could easily walk a few blocks to Scaddabush or take the subway to nicer places in the financial district.
