| - Mmm, yes, indeed, quite.
It's a lovely interior with a nice earthy but classy feel. Unfortunately, the apps we had (the croquettes and crostini) weren't the most inspiring, the croquettes being essentially fancy cheese sticks with an admittedly nice mustard, and the crostini being quite good but prettier and more interesting than it was necessarily delicious. Similarly, the dessert platter was also decent, but not especially memorable.
The pastas, however. My dining companion and I had the gnocchi and the agnolotti, and both of us were blown away. Both were absolutely delicious, and definitely make the list for best pastas I've had in Toronto. Purely for the pastas, I would give this place 4 stars (if everything else was better I would have given 5). Moreover, I have to appreciate how vegetarian-friendly they are (they have a separate but almost identical vegetarian menu that still sounds fully palatable!).
Overall, I would come back, with a yearning for their delicious pastas.
