| - I wanted to try this place after reading the Yelp reviews and being not overly impressed by the Nose, which is the close-to-home Italian place in the neighbourhood.
Baldini's is nice and cozy, quiet and perfect for a date night. What really won us over was the food. Basically, it was exactly as you always hope each dish will taste. My boyfriend ordered bruschetta, and it tasted exactly how you hope bruschetta will taste when you order it. Same went for the minestrone soup.
The entrees were excellent as well. I had the agnolotti amore, which was something like a butternut squash ravioli in rose sauce. There was a bit too much sauce, but too much is better than too little. I just scraped a bit of it off, but I love butternut squash, so that's what I wanted to taste more than anything, and with a little less sauce, it was perfect.
The service was charming and friendly with a bit of humour. All in all, an excellent night out for Italian food. We raved about it the whole walk home, and we'll definitely be back again.
