I love this restaurant! I know that it has gotten high reviews before and that it is often quite busy, but I still regard it as a bit of a hidden gem! I was there with a friend who really wanted Italian food and we were not disappointed. The vibe was super relaxed for a Sunday night and the serving staff were extremely kind/helpful. To start, we ordered the polenta with sausage and it was fantastic! My friend then got the linguine and the meatballs, adding them together. She was extremely satisfied saying that it was one of the best meals she has had in Toronto. I had the burrata and fungi caldo (hot mushroom) salad. Both were lovely on their own, but great compliments to one another! I am gluten free so the only thing I would have liked was a GF bread option to dip into the EVOO and Balsamic...but that's just me being picky! I am very happy we went there and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for some simple (but extremely delicious) and affordable Italian home cooking.
