| - Caffino is a romantic, intimate Italian restaurant tucked away in the old Toronto Carpet Factory buildings. The restaurant has been here for years, long before Liberty Village became trendy! Going in through the back way is really spectacular, you really feel like you've wandered into something hidden. Large windows and high ceilings, interior tastefully decorated with vintage furniture.
Food here is good Italian, rustic and rich. Gnocchi is handrolled and melts in your mouth. I'm generally really picky about risotto, and they get it right on here: it's cooked with tons of flavour. They make a delish thin crust pizza too! Staff is professional and efficient: you won't find your typical uni student or part timer, but adults that know what they are doing and are not there to suck up for tips. And the front patio is magical on a warm summer evening.
I had my wedding reception here (booked it b/c I loved the venue) and I taste tested many times to make sure it was exactly what I wanted. All of my guests raved about the place afterwards and commented consistently that the food was amazing, not the typical banquet hall rubber chicken and buttered veggies. It's a great place to hold a special event as they are really flexible and Rosa will work with you to make sure you get what you want. Plus you don't have to worry about the noise and you can get the whole venue, patios and bar, pretty much to yourself.
Highly recommended, and there's free parking in the back!
