| - This was my first visit to Trambusto, and I must say it was an excellent experience.
The place is small, but it has a very homely, cozy feel to it. Even the tablets they use to ring you in are surrounded by a natural looking wood.
The staff is friendly and quick to greet you.
And of course the food was the best part. We had the pizza, rigatoni, and spaghetti.
The pizza was probably the best pizza I've ever had (save for SONNY's in Glacé Bay, Nova Scotia). It was nowhere near as greasy like all your typical franchise pizza places. The crust/dough was light, crispy, yet soft/fluffy (for lack of better words). The sauce was delicious. And they use real mozzarella balls; although the cheese isn't spread across the entire pizza, it's just enough and just right. Definitely recommend the pizza.
The rigatoni was to die for. It's mixed w braised beef ragu, and the sauce was just right. I highly recommend this one - it'll likely be my first choice the next time I'm there.
The spaghetti was good. Wasn't my favourite out of the three items we tried. The sauce was good...wasn't bad, but wasn't great. Perhaps it was a tad too sweet. Or maybe it just couldn't compete w the rigatoni!
Definitely recommend this place. Prices are reasonable if you are used to cheaper pasta/pizza...but definitely a deal and worth the price if you're lookin' for a wicked gourmet type meal.
I think they only have a few locations in the GTA.
I wish they had one in the Durham region..
