This was my first experience here in years and I enjoyed everything! The staff were friendly and accomodating. A quaint dining room and was surprised to see comfy bar seating separate from the main dining tables. We tried several appetizers: oysters, calamari, escargot,beef carpaccio, all were very fresh and tasty. For main dishes we ordered: Atlantic salmon, linguine pescatore, lasagna, and shrimp & sea scallops. We enjoyed every bite of our meals. The lemon glaze on the salmon was divine. If you still have room, the desserts are worth the extra calories. They were delicious, light, and didnt taste like heavy sugar, instead homemade and my Royal chocolate cake melted in my mouth. It was a wonderful dining experience.

I’m from Calgary, Alberta, but was in Milton for a month for work, and decided to try this spot on my last night. Enjoyed a scotch from their beautifully displayed collection, escargot, shrimp cocktail, and a New York strip loin. Food was absolutely delicious. Atmosphere was very comfortable and aesthetically pleasing, and the staff was quite friendly and hospitable. I wish I didn’t wait till my last night, and tried it more than once for my stay in Milton.

La Toscana in Milton offers a delightful escape into the world of traditional Italian dining, housed within the charming and historic Thompson House. It's a place that certainly aims for a more upscale experience, making it a popular choice for special occasions, date nights, or simply when you're craving a taste of authentic Italy. One of the immediate draws of La Toscana is its ambiance. The restaurant is situated in a beautifully restored historic building, which lends a refined and elegant atmosphere. You can often see the original stonework, and the decor aims to evoke a classic Italian feel. It's the kind of place where you can relax and truly enjoy your meal without feeling rushed. They also have a lovely patio when the weather permits, perfect for al fresco dining. The food at La Toscana generally lives up to the sophisticated setting. Their menu features a good range of classic Italian dishes, from various pastas to seafood and meat entrees. While specific dishes can vary with specials, you can expect well-prepared plates with fresh ingredients. They also boast an extensive wine list, which is a significant plus for wine enthusiasts looking to pair their meal perfectly. Portions are typically generous, and the quality is generally consistent with a fine dining establishment. Service tends to be professional and attentive, aiming to provide a polished experience. The staff are knowledgeable about the menu and wine pairings, adding to the overall enjoyment of the meal. For parking, being in downtown Milton, it's good to know that there are free municipal lots on Mary St and Brown St, as well as on Main Street west of St. This is quite convenient, especially for a more upscale restaurant where street parking might otherwise be a challenge. However, it's worth noting that La Toscana falls into the $$$ pricing category, so be prepared for a higher bill than your average weeknight dinner spot. Reservations are also often recommended, especially for peak dining hours, as it can get quite busy. Overall, La Toscana delivers a genuine taste of Italy with a sophisticated touch in the heart of Milton. If you're looking for a special dining experience with good food, a great wine selection, and a beautiful atmosphere, it's definitely a place to consider.

Disappointing experience at La Toscana. Despite the restaurant being nearly empty, we were asked if we had a reservation instead of being welcomed. It took over 15 minutes just to place our order, and more than 45 minutes for the food to arrive. No one checked on us during the meal, and when their card machine didn’t work, there was no apology or effort to make things right. The staff came across as cold and unwelcoming, and there were uncomfortable undertones that felt racially biased. We were the only people of colour there and everyone else was serviced enthusiastically except us. Definitely won’t be returning.

I had expectations for this place, and they were all surpassed. I came in with my quadriplegic father this evening, and although there were no ramps to enter the restaurant, the staff were so accommodating with helping get his wheel chair in. The service was really above and beyond On to the food... Spectacular. Everything tasted 100 times better than it looked. The food genuinely brought a smile to my face while I was eating. I especially loved the oysters. They tasted so fresh, and the horse radish was so fresh, grated in house. This place is definitely a gem, and I will have to restrain myself from coming back every weekend

Quality has gone down, mussels extremely salty, lamb over cooked. Asked 3 times now if they have mint sauce, still didn't get it. Noticed that as non drinkers this time, very different attention, get it together
