50 Best Italian Restaurants near Maple

“Love this place my favourite!“

“It doesn’t get better than Farro Ristorante! Most amazing atmosphere, warmest and most genuine staff and amazing and delicious menu! Carmine is always welcoming and makes you feel like you’re home. My husband and I have been enthusiastic patrons for many years. He is partial to their Linguine Pascatore where I do enjoy many dishes, but am partial to their Penne alla Vodka. It’s always our go to restaurant when we just want a quiet evening out for dinner. Dishes are fabulous, prices are reasonable! Espresso perfect! I highly recommend Farro!“

“Tried this restaurant for the first time and I was overwhelmingly impressed. The atmosphere took me back to Italy. Nice to see a generous amount of bread as an appetizer with olive oil and balsamic. Tried the pasta and it blew me away, the quality and freshness was superb, especially Lucio Spaghetti. Service was amazing as well, will be back soon!“

“Hassan at Pizza Puzzza made my experience absolutely amazing! Not only was the pizza incredible, but his personality and customer service were next level. Super friendly, funny, and genuinely made the whole visit memorable. I honestly recommend dining in just so you can have a conversation with him. Best “doctor” in the world cured my pizza cravings instantly with an amazing conversation. Great atmosphere, great vibes, and even better food :). Will come again.“

“I am fortunate enough to have had my engagement party at Nascosto. It was a phenomenal evening. With 40 guests everyone said they felt extremely satisfied with the service. Those with food allergies felt very taken care of. The servers were attentive, the room was beautiful, and the food was absolutely amazing.

My fiancee and I greatly enjoyed our evening knowing our guests were being taken care of by the amazing staff.

Special thank you to Julian who helped coordinate the evening, your professionalism, thoroughness, and care, truly created an evening my family and I will not soon forget.

Thank you“

“I ordered the wedding soup take out. $7.99 but the paper cup they give you is minuscule. Should be at least double the size for the price they charge. What a rip off. Too bad because I like there food overall“

“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!“

“The staff was lovely, the food was good!! Would def eat her again!“

“From the very first bite of the warm, garlicky bread, we knew we were in for something special. A restaurant that puts this much care into its bread is a restaurant that cooks with heart.
Everything we ordered was fresh and delicious. The pasta is made in-house and cooked to perfection, with just the right texture to soak up every bit of the sauce.

We also loved the atmosphere. Everyone was so friendly, welcoming, and genuinely proud of what they do. You can really feel the passion behind the food and the hospitality.

I only wish we had a gem like this in our neighborhood!“

“Ciao Roma Pizza is a great spot, especially if you’re vegetarian. They have an amazing variety of vegetarian pizzas, with lots of different toppings and combinations to choose from. The pizza was fresh, flavorful, and delicious. Definitely a place I’d come back to!“

“Lovely venue, stylish ambiance, tasty Italian food choices, great wines offered by Vitalita www.Vitalita.ca Overall nice place in Woodbridge to dine or meet friend for lunch. I will revisit.“

“Today we celebrated my father’s 90th birthday and there is no better place to celebrate than at Tovico! The food is great, the staff is very professional and make you feel very welcoming. Our guests commented that they would be coming back soon making us feel that they also had a great experience. Thank Riccardo, Tessa, Leo and staff for a great time. See you soon, Mary“

“Went here Friday night with a girlfriend. It's a cute little Italian restaurant. Good menu, good food and good staff. The buratta was delicious, and so were our mains.
Our main server Victoria was so amazing and attentive! Highly recommend her.
But I gave 4 stars as we didn't like the attitude of one of the other servers who first denied us a table and second tried to rush us with ordering our mains. Also a 3rd server also seeemd to rush us and even tried to take my plate away when I wasn't done!“

“Excellent food. and very friendly staff. The mushroom salad, veal marsala, and the short ribs were fantastic. We highly recommend this restaurant.“

“Excellent service (Reza), exceptional food, lovely atmosphere. Soho martini - amazing!“

“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. 👏“

“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!“

“Went for the 1st time with some friends to celebrate our wedding anniversary. I felt really bad because there was only 1 waiter there and it ended up getting really busy. He tried his best to accommodate and get everyone's orders in. The arugula salad was AMAZING! I could've had more. The Nutella donuts were great . Overall was a lovely lunch!“

“Consistently excellent. Always very busy and that means ambient noise is pretty high. But if you're doing things right - and Locale is doing everything right - it means you're running a very popular spot that's full of happy chatting people.“

“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“

“Fast pizza with delicious crust. And a really nice staff member named Kashmir. I have lunch for 3 days this week - the pizza I chose is the Danforth (Greek). You gotta eat here!“

“Absolutely love this place! Every dish I’ve tried has been incredible, but the penne alla vodka, the calamari fritti, and the stuffed peppers are absolute standouts—flavorful and perfectly cooked. The entire menu is consistently delicious, and the service is outstanding—friendly, attentive, and welcoming every time. Truly one of my favorite Italian spots!“

“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!“

“Thank you, Chef Piotr Przykaza and your wife for phenomenal dinner and Tristian for an amazing service 😊🍷 Very highly recommend it 👍“

“I’ve been a regular here for about 30 years. Family, food experience and high school cafeteria gallerie where all your friends meet for lunch and enjoy the company“

“From the moment we first walked in, we felt truly welcomed. The staff treat you as if you are friends visiting their home — warm, attentive, and genuinely kind. The food is always delicious: you can rely on the classics but also discover new dishes every time. We first came here right after arriving in Toronto, and it gave us the rare feeling of being at home in such a big city. Since then, we return several times a month, and every visit has been a positive experience. The atmosphere is cozy, the service outstanding, and the hospitality remarkable. It honestly feels like visiting friends, not just going to a restaurant. A place we highly recommend — definitely worth a visit when in Toronto!“

“I was in the area and popped into this restaurant for the first time yesterday and have to say it was worth stopping in. Service and the food are top-notch Had a veggie sandwich and it was a 10 out of 10 Staff were amazing even enjoyed an espresso with Alex before I left I would highly recommend it will definitely be back. .“

“Absolute Top Italian Restaurant! Top Food, Top Service and Top Atmosphere. Italian waiters, Italian chefs, Italian homemade food, Italian wines....
L'Antipasto Ristorante blew us away for the time we pulled up to their reserved parking spots. Upon coming close to the front door about to enter the door opened and we were welcomed in by their friendly Italian staff. The menu, which it seems is updated with daily specials, was a fantastic assortment of classic Italian cuisine from all over Italy. We tried the octopus, which was so tender and perfectly presented, we are still talking about how amazing it was the next day. Their pasta was perfect al dente, freshly made that day and cut not extruded, perfection. The service was world class, professional, curious, not rushed at all, focusing on making it feel like you were invited over to your good friends home in Italy for that perfect meal. The house wines - perfectly matched, the cappuccino, amazing! Thank you for the perfect family dinner we will always remember. See you all again soon.“

“Amazing....Greek pizza....etc...best we've tasted..“

“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!“

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

“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! 👏👏“

“Absolutely phenomenal gem of a restaurant.

My dad's accountant is in this complex, so I've been there with him twice recently. Had the veal parmesan sandwich the first time, and the cannelloni on the 2nd visit. Both were absolutely delicious.

Didn't bat an eye today when my dad requested angel hair pasta, which wasn't on the menu for the day. Exceptional service.

Highly recommended.“

“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!!“

“It is a very interesting place to enjoy a good meal with a quiet family atmosphere to dance.“

“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“

“Loved everything about it, nice waiters lovely atmosphere, great for birthdays and friends gatherings. Most importantly, big delicious meals from salads to pizza and pasta, seafood was extremely good, Perfect for those who love Italian cuisine, definitely recommends it 😍😍“

“We spent our anniversary dinner at ZiZi, and it was our first time visiting the restaurant. We found the service to be warm, personable, and friendly. The food was delicious, and we really appreciated the great recommendations, especially as first-time guests. To top off the evening, we were pleasantly surprised with a glass of bubbly as a special anniversary gesture. 🥂 It was such a lovely touch and made our evening even more memorable. Thank you to Ara and the team at ZiZi for making our first experience such a pleasant and enjoyable one. We look forward to returning!“

“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. 🍷🍷❤️“

“I had a great experience at Pizza Pizza on Wilson Avenue! The staff was friendly, fast, and made sure my order was perfect. The pizza was hot, fresh, and had just the right amount of cheese and toppings. I really appreciated how clean the store was and how quickly they handled everything, even during a busy time. Definitely one of the better Pizza Pizza locations in the area — I’ll be coming back for sure!“

“Amazing experience, wonderful hospitality, and super clean. The food was delicious, served quickly in a lovely atmosphere. There was music 🎶 playing in the background, the lights were captivating and we enjoyed the space so much, we stayed after dinner to enjoy the venue.“

“We had our party of 50 people catered by Joe and let m tell you, its amazing! Like your Mamma's or Nonna's home cooking or better! Everything was delicious, in abundance, so much so we had tons left over! Amazing service and quality. If you're looking for home cooked quality for your next event you must try! Thank you Joe and Team for everything! Superb! 😊“

“The cold cut sandwich was incredible and very big (my bf and I split it) and came with a delicious salad.

Cappuccinos were also very good and the man who took our order was very friendly and helped me decide between cinnamon or chocolate (chocolate).

Definitely worth the stop if you’re in the area and hungry:)“

“We had such an incredible experience at Zafferano in Woodbridge! From the food to the service, everything was easily 5 stars.

The Fettuccine Tartufo was absolutely insane — rich, creamy, packed with truffle flavour, and easily one of the best pasta dishes I’ve had in a long time. My wife had the Stuffed Gnocchi, which was just as impressive. The gnocchi were perfectly cooked, full of flavour, and such a unique dish. We also tried the pizza and it was incredible — fresh, perfectly baked, and delicious from the first bite to the last.

A huge shoutout to Michael for his incredible service throughout the evening. He was friendly, attentive, knowledgeable, and made sure we were taken care of without ever making us feel rushed. Great service can completely elevate a dining experience, and Michael definitely did that for us.

The atmosphere was warm and inviting, the food came out beautifully, and everything tasted fresh and thoughtfully prepared. You can tell there’s a lot of care put into both the food and the overall experience.

We’ll definitely be coming back to Zafferano. Highly recommend the Fettuccine Tartufo, Stuffed Gnocchi, and pizza. An amazing Italian spot in Woodbridge!“
