I've been wanting to go to this restaurant for a while but for the longest time I didn't because I read so many bad reviews. I actually don't understand why people didn't like this restaurant because I think it's quite good! Granted this is not my favourite Italian restaurant but I'm a picky girl. However, I would definitely come back here.
I came here for lunch with a friend before I headed to Europe so I can compare Toronto's Italian food with Italy's food. (Turns out the Italian food in Toronto is not bad at all!)
My friend got a pasta. I don't remember which one but I remember it being a tomato based sauce and it was delicious.
I got risotto and a side of polenta. The risotto was okay but the dish is too Asian tasting for my liking. I think risotto is just not for me because I rather go to a Chinese restaurant and order rice. The polenta was good. I've never had polenta before and I think my first experience with it went well. It's definitely not something to eat on your own because it's so filling.
I came here during the summer time and I really wanted a sangria but they only had it in a pitcher. So I guess my only complaint is that they should offer it by the glass because a girl can't and shouldn't finish a whole pitcher on her own!
