. "In the midst of the Taste of Little Italy we were looking for somewhere to dine and to get a break from all the hustle and bustle in the streets. I took a quick glance at the menu posted out front and by the looks of how packed the restaurant was we decided to give it a try. The hostess advised it was at least a 20 minute wait for a table but I don't think it actually took that long.\n\nThe restaurant itself is pretty small and tables are packed closely together however it has a very cozy vibe with it's dim lighting, dark wood tables and chairs and candle light on every table. At the back of the restaurant there is a bar off to the right and a window in the centre giving you a view into the kitchen.\n\nThe front of the restaurant opens up onto the sidewalk and were lucky enough to score a table right in centre front!\nWe had a very bubbly waitress and despite how busy and packed the restaurant was she never neglected us and kept our glasses of water full all night long.\n\nFor drinks we started off with two glasses on white zinfandel.\nNext came there delicious crunchy and warm rosemary bread drizzled with olive oil which we finished in no time.\n\nFor starters we decided on\nLa Forchetta's Sicilian Rolls - stuffed w/ smoked mozzarella, roasted red\npeppers and fresh basil with a Chipotle-Roma tomato dipping sauce\nTaste like an italian version of a spring roll, with lots of gooey cheese and a spicy tomato dipping sauce\n\nMains\nCedar Plank Roasted Atlantic Salmon - w/ mixed lentils with baby spinach, whole cherry tomatoes and honey-Pommery mustard glaze\nThe fish was cooked and seasoned perfectly. I loved the lentils with the cooked down tomatoes and baby dish. Beautiful and delicious fish dish.\n\nFinally onto dessert which we ordered respectively an Americano and Tea to go with.\nTwice-baked Warm Chocolate Cake - w/ a centre of warm chocolate ganache, topped with a Sicilian Vanilla gelato scoop and drizzled with a Belgium white chocolate sauce\nThe cake was phenomenally good! Crispy outside breaking into it revealing a fudgey interior with a deliciously rich ganache spilling out paired with there creamy vanilla gelato definitely a winner!\n\nOverall a very enjoyable Italian meal with good service. Definitely worth checking out if your ever in the Little Italy area for some great Italian eats!\n\nFYI Washrooms are located down a steep set of stairs off in the back to the right, before the bar."^^ .
