Focaccia Italian - Toronto

Absolutely charming old school Italian restaurant. The service was amazing, the food was tasty and the price was so reasonable at $80 taxes in for two people with a bottle of wine. The one negative was the lack of air conditioning it was over 40 with the humidex the day I ate there, but on a normal day I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Focaccia.

A charming restaurant near Yonge Bloor, Focaccia was a nice change from the new spots popping all over the city. The service was pleasant, food was good and I loved that Focaccia was all about enjoying your friends' or partner's company. A romantic date night spot for first dates to elderly couples!

Perfect pasta. It's always nice to find a restaurant gem based on others' online reviews. Staying at the Marriot Bloor-Yorkville, we wanted something within a short walk and had Italian on our minds. Soon to be dwarfed by a high-rise accross the street, if you didn't have the address you might walk by. A small, but cozy dining room was staffed by Larry who was both courteous and social. Mona was in the kitchen, producing perfect pasta dishes, with steak and chicken also on the menu. There are very reasonable bottles of wine available, so why buy just a glass? We both opted for the Caesar salad which was fresh with a light, not overpowering dressing. Save room for desert, as there are some nice specials; we shared banana gelatto over chocolate cake. We'll definately go back on our next Toronto visit.

Cozy little place and the food is decent...I had the chicken pasta and it was very tasty but very greasy! Towards the end, my pasta was in a pool of grease! Larry the waiter is entertaining. Would come here again.

This is a quaint little Italian restaurant located in the downtown core, hidden off the side streets of Yonge close to Bloor. This was my first time eating here for lunch. I had gone with a Groupon and had no expectations. Upon entering, I noticed immediately how clean it was as well as the simple decor. Immediately I was seated by I think was the owner, very polite! This was a prix fixe menu, which had a lot of choices for the lunch meal. I ordered a Caesar Salad made with romaine hearts with just the right amount of creamy dressing and REAL bacon as well as Croutons. I ordered Spaghetti Aglio e Olio with Chicken, Tomatoes and Rapini. I noticed ALL the ingredients were fresh. The pasta was perfect also the nicely seasoned Chicken which was served in large pieces. (There was NO rationing here. I was very impressed with the prompt service and would definitely be going back.
