rev:text	In the Toronto Yelp community we have an ongoing Unofficial Yelp Event called Perfect Pizza Quest and this was the 7th iteration. I was asked earlier if this is in fact an actual search for perfect pizza or if this was just an event. I had answered that it's an event but knowing there's no such thing (as perfect pizza), the search will never stop and (the event) it will never end. This was my first attempt at organizing the PPQ and we had a decent turn out of almost 20 people. To get that many people into a restaurant in the downtown core on a Friday is a challenge but Pizzeria Libretto was more than helpful. Yes they take reservations. That is a huge deal considering I had large group (almost 20) coming on a Friday evening. Mind you the maximum they would allow for a single reservation was 10 so I had actually asked 2 more people to make reservations but it ended up we didn't need more 20. You can make reservations on line through Open Table or I did through the Yelp app but making an online reservation only allowed a maximum of 2 patrons per reservation. I did of course have to end up calling them and speak to a person there. There was no guarantee that we'd get seating together but I did intimate that we were a large party together and that the secondary reservation that I had asked somebody else to make well in advance, they did their best to seat us together and it ended up we were two long tables side by side in our own sort of area by the back near the ovens. The location works out well, being in the core and basically just a couple hundred feet away from St. Andrew subway station, it's easy to get to this restaurant at the north east corner of University and Pearl. A few of us were there for before 7pm and we were promptly seated as more and more of the party showed up. They have a modest collection of beers to choose some and some wine to select from. Our server took to the time to explain how their pizza is served and what we would expect. Libretto is a certified VPN establishment as well as DOP certified. Our server went on to say how the pizza is served and how the crust is thin, slightly charred on the outer and more moist on the inner parts. For some of us this was a given since we've had authentic Neapolitan pizza before but it's a good way to explain to the patrons who aren't familiar with Neapolitan style pizza and are probably used to something else. I had started with the calamari because my Yelp friend Darrin C told me it's amazing. I have to say anything he says I will get now since he basically got me to try Korean fried chicken. The calamari I have to say was just OK. I wasn't so blown away by it and it wasn't because expectations were high. The real deciding factor of how well Pizzeria Libretto was going to do with their pizza. I had ordered the duck confit pizza and my wife had ordered the funghi. I had asked our server if the Meal Share program was only for the duck confit and she said for now it is but that they will rotate the Meal Share menu item around so it would be something different in the future. For those that do not know or not aware Meal Share is a charitable organization that promotes restaurants to donate meals to their program. The way it works is that if you order a Meal Share item on the menu, the restaurant will donate a meal. The pizza was as I had expected but I loved the taste of the duck. I had a slice of my wife's mushroom pizza and it was great. I was sort of surprised that they actually sliced the pizza. Some Neapolitan places don't slice it but I didn't mind that is was sliced. I would have ended up slicing it myself if they hadn't. Overall I was very pleased between the reservations, professionalism, service, food and organization and accommodation. One of our group accidentally spilled a beer all over the table and floor and not only did they come over to help us clean up but they also took it off the bill. For having about 2 tables of 10 we were all given individuals bills and those that wanted to combine were combined when asked and they did not impose an auto-gratuity either. On top of all of this as far as authentic Neapolitan pizza goes it's one of the better ones I've had and their pricing is not ridiculous either.
