We're still trying to find some good authentic italian food after a summer trip to Rome and Florence. Here at Ascari Enoteca, breads are $1.50 per person and had 2 choices plus olive oil for dipping. Both breads were underwhelming. For appetizers we tried the charcoal grilled lamb skewers (extremely thin pieces of meat and overly large Maldon salt flakes, I can do much better on my backyard Kamado), the Broccolini Fritti (lightly battered broccolini) was which nice nicely done, and the shaved brussels sprouts which was nothing special. For mains we had 4 pastas to share: Spaghetti alla Carbonara (very cheesy but redundant and overly similar texture after the 3rd bite), the spicy Stracci con Salsiccia (bits of home made sausage) which was mediocre, a fish and pasta dish (too much lemon and fish pieces were dry) and rabbit with pasta which was probably the best of the 4 we tried. For dessert we had the Cannoli which was the best dish of the whole meal, and the Zeppoli (donut balls in chocolate sauce) which the kids enjoyed. Service was excellent and attentive. Overall a dissapointing meal food wise and no where near the authentic italians dishes that we are still seeking in the GTA.
