“The vibe and atmosphere was very nice. Most of the food items were enjoyed, except for the pork loin. Pork loin was deep fried, it was so dry that it's hard to chew. Items that we have enjoyed include the grilled calamari, and the pasta.“

“We were visiting Vaughan, staying at a nearby hotel and found this gem- the food was delicious! When it comes to Italian, for us, it is all about the sauce. This sauce was just like Nonna's. Everything was great, servers were attentive and we are planning to return the next time we are in town!“

“We went to Smoke and Mirrors Gastropub last Saturday with a couple of friends, and it was great experience from start to finish. The staff were friendly, attentive, and clearly passionate about what they do. The food was fantastic - creative dishes with fresh ingredients, nice flavours and beautiful presentation. Every plate felt thoughtfully crafted. The deserts were top-notch. It's rare to find a place that nails both food and service like this. We'll definitely be coming back soon -a real great find.“

“Westend Grill – Always a Hit!

I’ve been coming to Westend Grill for a couple of years now, and it’s one of those places that never lets you down. The food here just hits the spot every single time.

The chicken wings are perfectly crisp on the outside and tender inside — and that honey garlic sauce? Absolute perfection. Sweet, sticky, and addictive in the best way possible. The steak pasta feels like pure comfort — creamy, rich, and packed with flavor in every bite. Then there’s the Angus beef burger, which is simply next-level — juicy, smoky, and built just right. And the chicken parmesan? It’s got that real homemade Italian feel — golden crust, melty cheese, and just the right tang in the sauce.

The place itself is spotless, the vibe is relaxed, and the team always makes you feel welcome — like you’re part of the regular crowd.

Westend Grill has mastered the balance of great food, clean atmosphere, and genuine hospitality.

One small request though — please bring back the Chicken Skewers Sauté! That dish was legendary and is truly missed.“

“We had an excellent experience at this restaurant. From the moment we arrived, the staff were welcoming, attentive, and professional. The atmosphere was stylish yet comfortable, creating the perfect setting for a relaxed evening. The food was exceptional—fresh, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. Each dish reflected careful preparation and quality ingredients. Our group enjoyed osso buco, risotto with mussels, and pasta stuffed with butternut squash, all cooked to perfection. Portions were generous without compromising quality. Service was prompt and knowledgeable. Our server offered excellent recommendations and maintained the perfect balance of attentiveness without being intrusive. Overall, it was a memorable dining experience from start to finish. We look forward to returning soon and highly recommend this restaurant to anyone seeking outstanding cuisine, exceptional service, and a welcoming atmosphere.“

“We were there for dinner. The server Colette was alone handling the bar and the food service. Food was very good tasting, quick and hot. Her service was exceptional, a very pleasant experience.“

“Thanks for another fantastic evening. We really enjoyed our meal the food is always exceptional. The restaurant was really busy and the service was still outstanding. Well done everyone. 👏“

“My husband and I recently had a fantastic experience at Ciao Roma, which stands out from the typical pizza joints. The unique pay-by-weight system allows you to sample multiple varieties of pizza without committing to a full slice or pie. This feature adds a delightful twist to your dining experience.

We tried four different types of pizza, and each one was phenomenal. The crust was wonderfully crispy, and the flavors were vibrant and well-balanced. Additionally, we indulged in a sandwich filled with prosciutto, arugula, and cheese, which was equally delicious.

Overall, Ciao Roma exceeded our expectations, and I can't wait to return for more culinary adventures. Highly recommended for anyone looking to enjoy a diverse pizza experience!“

“Awesome Italian Restaurant. Authentic friendly staff. Great lunch or dinner options.“

“Food is always amazing!! The service is great, friendly it is like you are a part of the family with every visit! A MUST EXPERIENCE!!“

“This is a hidden gem in Woodbridge. The food is excellent and they treat you like family. We always feel so welcomed and have a wonderful meal. Whenever someone asks for a recommendation for Italian food in Vaughan, this is where they should go.“

“Our first time there.so many good things to say. The service good vibes just loved it. What a way to celebrate my moms birthday. Thank you so much will definitely be back. 🍷🍷❤️“

“We celebrated our daughert and son in law Baby Shower on Sunday, July 20th. We would like to congratulate Il Gatto team members for the exceptional overall service. We were a larger group and from setting up the day before to serving on Sunday everything was wonderfully done. Special mention to Rene for ensuring everyone was looked after in an excellent manner. Well done! 👏👏“

“We had a family event last night at their restaurant. I can't stress how great the value is here, and the food quality was top shelf. I have eaten food cooked by some of the best chefs in the world and this was every bit as good. the staff were attentive but not at all intrusive. very accommodating for our large group of 15 people. Their shrimp and calamari platter was cooked perfectly, not at all rubbery, with a divine sauce to dip. Pasta nicely al denté. Calabrese antipasto, nice bread spread. Perfect, and I do mean PERFECTLY, cooked steak, chicken, and sausages. Their pizza is simple but lovely balanced between crisp and chewy. Not too thick, not too thin. Arancini were great. I highly recommend them for your next family event, or just a quiet night out for the family! Thank you to all the staff and the chef for making our family event a success, and we look forward to seeing you again soon!“

“L'Antipasto delivered an elevated dining experience from start to finish. The tableside pasta service was both delicious and beautifully presented, and even the tea service reflected such refined attention to detail. It's a rare treat to enjoy this level of dining without having to head downtown. The thoughtful touch of a small table for our purses said it all — impeccable service and care in every detail. Can't wait to return!“

“What an incredible experience. Arti is consistently the best. Just when we think we have a favourite dish or drink, they create a new favourite! We had the pad Thai and the branzino/lentil/chickpeas and WOW…So delicious!!! The drinks were all so good & my fav tonight was the Le Fleur. Keep it up and keep surprising us“

“Having dined at Osteria Gente 4 times in recent weeks over weeknights and weekends, we experienced consistency in superior food quality and variety, efficient and friendly service (Aurora is wonderful) all in a relaxed, clean, and welcoming (and very accessible) atmosphere. Thank you Chef Antonio!“

“AMAZING FOOD AND EXPERIENCE!! Restaurant was very clean and beautiful atmosphere... reminded me of the many times my family would gather together for family reunions, at fancy restaurants, when I was a kid. The service was great.... food came to the table very fast. The flavor was devine...I haven't had food taste like that in years. I think every single bite I took was worth the price.

This experience was a 10/10 for me. I will be going back 100%.... can't believe I just discovered this place now. My goal is to have everything on the menu.

Great for small partys or family get togethers ❤️.... or if you have a special someone you want to impress 😉

Delicioso 🤌“

“First time attending Anna and Lucio’s with family and would HIGHLY recommend and will definitely be coming back!!! From the atmosphere to the service and food it was phenomenal. The photos are the Calamari to start, amazing not to salty, very flavourful. The special was straciatella with spinach and tortellini. Amazing soup and the portion was filling for an appetizer I was quite shocked. They also gave us 2 servings of bread (which many places do not do that). For the mains we had the mushroom risotto, very rich, flavourful and creamy perfect amount of seasoning. Not too watery like most places. The veal chop with a SIDE of penne alla vodka was mouthwatering and cooked to perfection. I wanted to try 2 different dishes so they accommodated for me to get 2 different pastas (shows in photo 4) for the price of one dish. The handmade gnocchi with meat sauce was amazing and full of flavour and my second choice was the penne alla vodka and I was very happy and satisfied with my choice. I have never been to a place where I could get 2 great portioned and flavourful dishes for the price of one!!! The veal Parmesan and penne à la vodka was to die for and was cooked perfectly not full of fat like some other places that I have been toO!! The tiramisu dessert was amazing along with the pistachio, lemon and tarrone was very light, yummy and sweet!! The service was amazing. The accommodations that we were able to make along with the portion size sizes is very rare to find and made the experience 100% better. I would for sure recommend doing a party or coming here for special occasions or just something casual!!!“

“blano pizza and gnocchi were delicious 😋“

“I’ve been to this restaurant several times. Food is absolutely amazing and for this reason alone I will return. But as far as the owner is concerned … was very disappointed how he treated us. He basically kicked us out of our seats. The couple sitting next to us who were there already when we were seated were still there enjoying their time yet Walter asked my friend and I to leave because he had the next guests waiting. My guess is he had no problem asking us to leave because we were two females hence the reason he felt he could bully us, however, it would be a different story had he asked a couple to leave. Long story short, not impressed with Walter to say the least but food is exceptional!!“

“I love Remo's Place! This family owned and run restaurant always feeds me well. Great food, people and I always feel like part of the family. Friday night karaoke with One Love is a blast. Any naysayers can kick rocks. Rudy, Kelly, Julie, Steph, Al and Cindy are kind, warm hearted and fun. Thanks for being a neighbourhood staple and always making me feel welcome and my belly full :)“

“Extremely good restaurant! as Italian I was never expecting to find these so good quality and tradition on the other side of the earth. Se siete italiani dovete assolutamente mangiare qui!“

“Beautiful Place. You must go and treat yourself and family“

“Great job open table for setting my family up for dinner. Mom is disabled and got us a table well situated away from stairs and the door. Linda, our server was pleasant and on top of everything! Each course was brought out in a timely fashion and everyone had a wonderful time! The food was great as always with perfect portion sizes! We always look forward to dinner at East Side Mario's for all of these reasons. Arriving at peak time 5:30 meant having a reservation allowed us to be seated without delay especially with a mom in a wheelchair and a 13 month baby. Thank you Open Table for setting us up and Linda at East Side Mario's for exceptional service.“

“the italian food is absolutely delicious, the pasta was very fresh and full of flavor, and the veal sandwich was delicious, loaded with fresh cheese. our salad was also so simple but so good! guiseppe is so friendly and welcoming, and the restaurant was very clean.“

“Had my nephew’s engagement over the weekend and the food was exceptional! My choice was salmon with vegetables and the salmon was enjoyed by all. A very nice size cooked to perfection…a nice crispy top and ever so tender on the inside. Not dry at all! Service was wonderful as well. Definitely going back!“

“The food was incredible we got the fried calamari, Caesar salad, minestrone soup, Veal Piccata and the penne a la vodka. Went here on a Saturday, I used to work in the industry so I understand how busy it can be at 7pm on a weekend however, the staff seemed very unorganized and our server seemed very rushed with our table. The servers had no assigned sections or tales so they were taking tables as they pleased leaving our server overwhelmed, we had to inquire about the specials because he forgot to tell us, the manager was also scolding the employees out in the dinning room instead of in private. Overall the food was amazing and I would definitely recommend it however, the restaurant itself seemed unorganized and dysfunctional.“

“The food is really pretty good. A good spot for a business lunch for sure. The service could have been a bit better, but they may have been a bit understaffed. But we had a great time, enjoyed a good bottle of wine with our food, and were able to speak and listen to each other, which is a big plus. I would return happily.“

“I planned my mother’s 80th birthday dinner party at Zafferano Ristorante! Amazing experience with a private area. They readily worked around what I wanted to make the night special. With the delicious appetizers and delicious food and great service. Thank you for making it a memorable night!“

“We had an outstanding dinner, the food was absolutely delicious and the portions were generous. The drinks were also top-notch, perfectly complementing the meal. The atmosphere was welcoming and the service attentive without being intrusive. We’ll definitely be coming back for more. We highly recommend!“

“Was a bit weary about this place as it is in a hotel and most Marriott hotels don’t even have decent food.

This was probably the best Italian food we have had in the area…. A lot to say bordering Woodbridge.

The food was absolutely delicious and the dessert even better. Would have liked a bread basket to start but all in all very good authentic food“

“Enjoyed a beautifully crafted family style lunch with friends. This restaurant makes you feel like you’re entering a family’s home kitchen, so welcoming. The meats and pasta were perfectly cooked! I look forward to coming back very soon for some comforting Italian food.“

“Great place, amazing food and impeccable service.!!!“

“The service was great! The food was amazingly delicious!“

“Fantastic prices for authentic Italian food fare! Lasagna is packed high with fresh layers of sauce mozzarella and meat sauce! The Spaghetti bolognese was perfect.
Another must -try is their meatballs! Soooo good.
Very reasonable prices for great tasting fresh Italian food . Owners are very attentive , friendly and accommodating.
Will definitely be back to try the other menu item.“

“Exceeded our expectations. Food was ready to eat. Came nice and warm. Chicken melted in your mouth how tender it was. Portions were big and even got to take some home. Most importantly, everybody loved it. Thank you Mark and staff.“

“They have a new menu out and there are items on it like polenta with ribs and sausage, bacala, homemade chicken soup with pastina and meatballs, papardelle with short ribs, speducci with minestra and lots more. A must try so authentic and a taste like Italy“
