| - After one of the scariest rides of my life, slipping and sliding on a snowy Toronto evening, I finally made it to Abruzzo Pizza. What surprised me was how packed the place was even though it was snowing outside and close to 10 pm at night.
The decor is very simple, so nothing to show off to for a date. The food, however, was quite delicious. Service was prompt and friendly, by mostly tough looking men you would find on the Sopranos.
We ordered the Special Pizza, the Greek Salad, and the Special Pasta with Sausage. All the dishes were quite good, and my date, who usually would not like pizza, actually complimented the place.
It was definitely better than the chain pizza joints around here, but not quite as good as New York or European pizza (especially Italy). I would say, it is on par with some of the better pizza places in California.
Everything tasted really fresh, and the pizza has a nice crisp to the crust. The pasta, a little on the spicy side, was also well prepared and had authentic Italian sausage in them (what a nice surprise!). I would definitely come back to this place if I ever had a craving for pizza again.
