I love going to smaller, cozier restos where the servers are super attentive, the chiefs are passionate about cooking and takes pride in their work and last but not least, the owners spends time to talk to you. Put all that together, you get Brigantinos!
This resto has only been opened for 3 months but it seems like they have been in operation for many years. Everything was on point and I'm so glad we found this little gem on the Danforth.
In contrary to previous reviews, I don't think the prices are expensive at all. Their entrees ranges from $18 to $30 with very generous portions and superb quality. I highly recommend the seafood platter to start. The lightly battered fried calamari was uber crispy, so delightful when paired with the house dipping sauce. As for main, I had the lamp chops with grill vegetables instead of their homemade pasta which I later regret after a bite of my friend's. The lamb chops were perfectly cooked and seasoned, it was just simply amazing.
A five star rating is reserved for a very special place and Brigantino's has a very special place in my heart.
