"3"^^ . . . "Since Sfizio is a new Italian restaurant that opened in my neighbourhood I was excited to try it out - I could use a good Italian eatery close to home! So one Sunday afternoon, I ventured into Sfizio Pizzeria & Wine Bar for a quick lunch. The owner cautioned that they weren't officially opened yet, only accepting customers as part of a soft-opening. Although a large part of their menu wasn't offered (mainly alcohol and their Neapolitian style pizzas), the warm and welcoming owner was convincing enough for me to stay.\n\nThe food was mediocre at best. The pastas that we ordered (Spaghetti Bolognese and Alfredo Penne) were served rather cold, but I dismissed it as a soft-opening kink. All their table breads and pizza doughs are made in-house, and they have a Neapolitian style wood-burning oven for their pizzas. Will definitely try that next time I stop by.\n\nThe Tiramisu was the by far the most memorable part of the meal. It's light and creamy like a parfait, and not too coffee-heavy, just the way I like it.\n\nI think Sfizio has room for improvement, but if they work those kinks out, it seems like it could be a promising little Italian spot."^^ .
