| - Having been to the various Pizzeria Librettos, I must say this new King West location is my favourite (and within walking distance to me).
Went for a very late lunch, and the place had only a few occupied tables. Speaking of tables, I really like that this location is very spacious, esp. with individual tables (not a huge fan of communal seating) and plenty of elbow room.
Three of us ordered our standard faves, and also enjoyed the complimentary house-made focaccia:
- Flank steak spiedini
- Beef Carpaccio
- Duck confit pizza
- Prosciutto pizza
- Special - Hawaiian pizza
I feel that the standard of the food at this Libretto is better than some of the other locations. I find that this location is more generous with the amount of toppings on their pizzas and the crusts are perfectly charred (but not burned, like I've experienced elsewhere). Toppings are evenly spread out, whereas I've had some dry spots on my pizzas in the past (from other locations). We found the Hawaiin pizza a little soggy and hard to eat with hands, esp. since the grilled pineapple pieces were too heavy for the thin soggy crust, so kept falling out. However, with the use of a fork, it was a taste sensation!
Becuase it was quiet, service was great. The server consistently made sure everything was as needed, but was not intrusive.
This is I think the 3rd visit to this location since it's opened, and I'm glad to see that standards have not faltered since they've opened here in the 'hood!
