| - Went there last night as my husband and I were craving something Italian. So as I often do, I Yelped Italian restaurants in our area and came up with this place. The reviews were excellent and I would also agree with them. The food is absolutely delicious!! Like most Italian restaurants, they give you bread to start. In my preview of the menu online, I had seen a mushroom bruschetta and was dying to try it, so we ordered that to start. It was is/was the best bruschetta I've ever had. If you love mushrooms, cheese and bread that's crunchy and soft, then you'll love this! For our mains, I ordered the gnocchi (Gorgonzola cheese, broccoli with rosé sauce) and my husband ordered the fettuccine with a vodka tomato sauce (shredded beef and mushrooms). First off, the amount of food you get is very reasonable for the price. For the first time that I can remember, my husband couldn't finish his pasta. I ate like 1/3 of my pasta and packed he rest for lunch the next day. Secondly, the pasta is so flavourful! The pasta was cooked to perfection! Lastly, the service there is excellent! They're very attentive and make wonderful recommendations. We were also very fortunate because we got the last piece of tiramisu. I must admit, I have had a better tiramisu elsewhere (in order: Citro - another little Italian place up near Yonge and Major Mac & Queen Margherita, the location near Jane & Annette), but this one comes in third. Overall, I was very impressed with Santos and will definitely come back again and try the veal and the risotto.
