| - I went to Verona for my second time last night to take one of my best girlfriends out for her birthday and I loved my second experience at this restaurant!
First off, it is on that strip of restos right in the heart of Toronto's theatre district on King Street West (the strip of restos across from the Bell Lightbox building), so it is in a great location!
After we checked out the new Tim Burton exhibition at the Bell Lightbox (a cultural thang I would recommend you check out if you are fan of Burton's films), we headed over to Verona for a night of delicious Italian cuisine.
To start, I ordered the hearts of romaine salad, which is a classic caesar salad with crispy and crunchy romaine lettuce. It was lightly dressed with fresh caesar dressing and a sprinkling of parmesan cheese - all for the price of $9.
As my main course, I ordered the amazing Angel Hair seafood pasta, which consisted of a melody of my favourite seafood fish (such as scallops, tiger shrimp and calamari) on top of a large bed of angel hair pasta, which was finished off with a sweet herb tomato sauce! The flavours of the pasta, the sauce and the seafood was such a pleasure to taste and eat.
The pasta was on the expensive side of $24, but it was a huge portion and it did have a lot of seafood in it.
For dessert, my bestie and I split the maple peach creme brulee, which was TO DIE FOR!
It literally metled in my mouth and was a perfect ending to an amazing meal.
The creme brulee was brought to our table for $12, which again was on the more expensive side but it is a classy resto!
So far, my experiences at Verona have been delicious and divine!
My first experience there was my birthday dinner back in May and it has continued to impress me and fill up my tummy with tons of Italian goodies.
I recommend Verona for a special occasion or when you wish to splurge for a good Italian meal in downtown Toronto.
