We asked for a table upstairs as they state it is a quieter space and that's what we were looking for and it was perfect! Food tasted amazing and the waitress was great and gave good suggestions. It was a perfect date night place!

Best Italian I have ever had. What more is there to say! Thank you to Chef Carlos and the team at Francobollo for making our special evening a night we will never forget.
The food, service and ambiance created a magical experience that was made better with every bite. From the Bruschetta and Burrata, to the Rigatoni, the absolutely incredible Gnocchi, chicken parm, eggplant parm and phenomenal Tiramisu Francobollo didn't disappoint. Highly recommend to anyone looking for an unforgettable dining experience.

Absolutely exceptional experience from start to finish. This upscale Italian gem in Toronto exceeded every expectation. From the moment we walked in, we were warmly welcomed by the staff and immediately impressed by the elegant, yet inviting atmosphere.
The service was flawless and every staff member was knowledgeable and passionate about the menu. The in house made gnocchi was a recommendation by Chef Carlos and it was phenomenal, bursting with flavour that made you savour every bite. We followed that with the eggplant parmigiana and chicken parmigiana which were equally delicious and the tiramisu for dessert really ended our meal on a high note.
It was evident to my husband and I that every detail, from lighting to the music to the platting, was thoughtfully curated to create an unforgettable dining experience. Which it most certainly did.
Francobollo, Thank you for a lovely evening!
We can’t wait to return.

We came hungry and left obsessed. Our table ordered a bit of everything - grilled calamari, polenta stack, Caesar salad, garlic-lemon shrimp, rigatoni alla vodka, pappardelle bolognese, pan-roasted potato gnocchi, both the veal and chicken parmigiana, and multiple slices of the Nutella cake to finish it off.
Every dish hit. The gnocchi was a personal favourite - golden, pillowy, and drenched in a decadent truffle-garlic cream. The pastas were rich and well balanced, and the parmigiana dishes were perfectly cooked - juicy and flavorful without the dryness that often ruins parm plates at other Italian spots in the city.
ALSO, shoutout to the portions. Usually I leave restaurants wanting more but I literally couldn’t finish my main and forced desert (disappointed because it was incredible and I wanted to finish but really says something about the portions here).
Service was top-tier - our server never let a water glass sit empty, and they welcomed us warmly even though we arrived near closing. The ambiance was relaxed but polished, with great music at the perfect volume. Parking was also a breeze, which was a nice bonus.
If you’re a fan of Italian food, run, don’t walk.
Already planning my next visit.

We were very disappointed with our experience. Although the room is lovely it is very noisy. The service was excellent. But our food was not at all good. The cocoanut shrimp were overdone with very little cocoanut. My seabass was dry and tasteless except for pepper even with lemon sprinkled on generously and my husband did not like the sauce on his veal. I should say the portion of fish was small and the meal was very expensive. Sorry but we will not be returning.

It's always delicious, fun and loud downstairs at Francobollo. My chicken was cooked to perfection and so tasty. The garbage salad is always a hit. Maya is the best server.
Very delicious food, nice place to go for special occasions. Ambiance on second floor is quiet and more intimate.

Being here many times, always a amazing time. I celebrate a couple of birthdays. Yesterday was a bit different. I had my usual tiramisu dessert. We get up for a second to go to the bathroom when we come back the dessert was gone. It was late time to go home at the time obviously everybody wants to go home tired from my long day at work. I understand that it took a long time for them to come to our table. They offered to bring me a new dessert, but this time after all that waiting , of course I don’t want it. I just wanna go home. I explained that and I also explained that the dessert was taken away when I went to the bathroom and I barely touch it end of the story they end up, charging me for it, and I thought it was unethical especially a expensive place like this , but anyways, I had an amazing time. Food was delicious. Waitress was really sweet. I will go back but next time I will make sure I don’t go to the bathroom. lol

So bad ! The upstairs was described as a quiet oasis . It was 80 degrees and so loud !!! My food was so salty - my friend really liked his fish . He was supposed to be taking me out for my birthday but it was so bad that I just paid since I recommended the place
