49 Best Italian Restaurants in North York

“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“

“Great food great atmosphere 👏🍷“

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

“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!“

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

“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!“

“Delicious food. Good friendly service“

“We went this evening with 2 little kids. Things started fine but kids are kids and couldn't sit still for long. The staff were really good at getting their food out quickly and getting us whatever we needed.

The food was very delicious (nduja Romana pizza, spaghetti Pomodoro and 2 orders of kids shell pasta with butter) but the service was what really stood out.

Looking forward to coming back more regularly!“

“The food is terrific - unpretentious classics, obviously passed down through generations. Ask if Albert will be there when you make reservations; trust me, he makes the entire evening just that much better.“

“Excellent food, great atmosphere and service!“

“A not so hidden treasure in the food court near the Finch TTC. Great Pizza, service and lots of tables. Too bad they are not open on the weekends. I suspect they would still do well, and wish they were still open a bit later during the week as well, but that's okay. Always a treat to eat here.“

“Amazing fresh pasta, staff are wonderful and helpful. so glad i found them“

“This experience was one of the best experiences ever. The manager was super attentive and accommodating to my friends and I. He constantly checked up on us and even joked around with us. Additionally, the food was fresh, hot, and tasted amazing. Overall, the atmosphere was thoroughly enjoying and made this experience worth while!“

“Deliious food,charming service. Will definitely eat here again!“

“The food was absolutely amazing. My 3 daughters and I went there for dinner during Summerlicious 2022. We didn't have reaervations and the options were a 1 hour wait to sit inside or be seated right away on the patio. We chose the patio. We were served our drinks and appetizers within 1/2 hour but our main course came about an hour after but it was worth the wait. We will definitely return🍾🎉“

“Friendly staff … great neighbourhood spot :)“

“Me and my boyfriend went here for the first time to grab a bite to eat for lunch. I got the panzerotti and he got the hamburger. The food was so good. The service was good. Very welcoming as soon as you walk through the door. We will definitely be coming back!

If you’re in the area and looking for an Italian family owned place to get a bite to eat I definitely recommend giving Pacino Panino’s a try“

“Had a great service at this location, ordered 4 medium pizzas, 8 drinks, and 4 dips. Food was anazing but took awhile. One worker was locked in at the front and did alot of work and deserves a raise. The other worker, (Antoon) stayed in the back either prepping some up, or prepping himself. Antoon rarely came to the front and displayed a mean/nonchalant face. Additionally, he came to the front and pulled 4 plastics bags which was his first appearance. To conclude my review, I would ljke to thank the worker for basically carrying Antoon by doing all the work in a busy time. Antoon, I don’t think pizza pizza is a great a fit for you. Maybe you were in training or prepping something in the back, but please try to display yourself more often and take orders, instead of just pulling out bags and staying in the back.

Signing off,
TK, RR, and MV.“

“This is by far the best California sandwich location they stack the meat and have great service. Had a small issue today where they forgot some sauce ( mistakes happen ) but they took care of us. It was so refreshing to deal with people that made things right without having to make a big deal out of it. Appreciate the food and staff here this type of service is almost impossible to come by these days.“

“Awesome eatery, quality food, clean, great ambiance. Excellent service.
Met Luciano the chef and owner. He came to our table to see how everything was. Amazing man and awesome chef. Our food was over the top.
Had lunch from the Summerlicious menu and it was yummy and plentiful. Highly recommended.
Our server Francesco was so polite and helpful.
Amazing fine dining experience.
Thanks Luciano. We will be back!“

“Portions generous. Price reasonable and food tasty“

“Generous portions. Got pizza this time, which was good and filling (took half of it home). Last time, I had their pan-seared salmon fillet topped with a honey garlic sauce and served with roasted potatoes & vegetables, which I highly recommend. Great outdoor patio spaces too. Quiet. Parking fills up fast in their small lot but you can park on the side streets for free. Service was friendly & attentive. Ask for Mike, he's great!“

“If you're looking for the ultimate comfort food, this is it. The cheese pizza is loaded with a thick, generous layer of mozzarella, and the seasoned crust adds such a great kick. Paired with a creamy garlic dip, it’s pure perfection. Pizza Pizza completely knocked it out of the park today“

“We just happened upon Nobleton’s VIvo on a drive through town tonight looking for a place to stop for dinner…what an absolute treasure we found! The food was delicious, the staff treated us like family and the atmosphere was almost festive! We left with our tummies full, a bounce in our steps and our hearts happy having such a wonderful dinning experience. I highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I ordered at this location for few years. The food and service are very good. The staff is friendly. I always return to this location with pleasure.“

“Amazing location! I ordered online (stupidly) and for some reason they gave me boneless bites instead of wings. I can’t eat boneless bites. I called and after some discussion. Even after closing the manager came and personally delivered wings to make my order right. Very happy with the service and he went up and beyond the call of duty! Good people I really appreciate you making it right. Thank you!“

“I just had my first visit. The decor is fantastic. No cookie cutter decor, but original. Great service delicious coffee look forward to next time.“

“Pizza Hut offers a convenient spot for quick pizza cravings. The service is generally fast, the place is clean, and the food comes out hot and satisfying. Great for takeout or a casual dine-in, though wait times can vary during busy hours. Overall, a solid and reliable neighborhood option.“

“This is my Favour pizza location, I always order there because the customer service Mary is a very nice lady and excellent service, she also speaks a little mandarin, she always positive and made sure my order is complete before I check out. and I love the pizza and chicken wings, they are so fresh and delicious!“

“We went to Pizza Pizza with a group of friends and everything was great from start to finish. The girl working there was friendly, patient, and very helpful when we were choosing our toppings. The pizza was delicious soft inside and crispy outside just how we like it. The restaurant was clean and well-organized. Excellent service and great food.“

“I had a great experience! I placed a pickup order, and the staff was so nice, friendly, and welcoming. My order was ready when I arrived, and everyone was very helpful. Thank you for the great service! I’ll definitely be coming back. 🍕“

“Have been a customer for decades. The best homemade authentic Italian sauces and pastas in the city and a great selection of fresh and frozen and different sizes. Now also a good selection of dairy free options. Bring cheques or cash as no debit or credit options. The owner and staff are lovely. Prices have increased since Covid but then again they have everywhere!“

“I had a great experience at Pizza Hut! The pizza was fresh and delicious. A special thanks to Ravi for his amazing customer service. He was very friendly, welcoming, and helpful with my order. I really appreciated his positive attitude. I will definitely visit again.“

“We've come to Parcheggio for brunch on two occasions and really enjoyed it. Our servers were quick, friendly and accommodating. We asked for strong cappuccino and the quality was excellent. The steak and eggs dish was well done, and the sour dough bread and hash brown with eggs dish was also excellent. The quality of the ingredients tasted fresh, nothing was too oily or greasy. We also enjoyed the ambiance of nice jazz music playing on a Sunday morning. We'll certainly be coming back.“

“This is by far our favorite Pizza Pizza. The owner always takes the best care of us, always has such a positive mood, and so so accommodating for whatever we need. Not to mention his pizza making technique is phenomenal! Highly recommend if you enjoy great food and impeccable service!!“

“The owner was so friendly when we walked in the door. He gave us lots of time to look ofer the extensive menu and gave us a great education lesson on his fancy pizza oven. The pizza was fast and delicious and the garlic dipping sauce I could eat on its own!“

“I went to the Cartwright location. This place was beautifully designed and quietly tucked into an industrial areas. The food is outstanding. I have been to many Italian restaurants and this is top notch. The sauce is to die for. And basically this is the basis of all foods Italian. We drank the sauce with our spoons. We sopped up the sauce with our pizza. Absolutely delicious.“

“Sandra she's the best“

“Really good pizza, appetizers yummy too“

“Cucina Cafe at York University is a delightful spot that consistently impresses with its quality and taste. The highlight of my visits is undoubtedly their cheesecake. I always find myself coming back for this creamy, decadent treat, which is, in my opinion, the best in the area.

Besides the cheesecake, Cucina offers a diverse menu with several standout items. The vegetarian pasta is a flavorful and satisfying option, perfect for a hearty meal. The cheese pizza is another reliable choice, offering a classic taste with a well-made crust and generous cheese topping.

The bruschetta at Cucina is also worth mentioning. It features fresh ingredients and a perfect balance of flavors, making it an excellent appetizer. The ambiance of the cafe is cozy and inviting, making it a great spot for both casual lunches and relaxed study sessions. Overall, Cucina is a must-visit for anyone at York University looking for delicious food and a pleasant cafe experience.“

“Worst customer service, I was soo hungry went buy pizza i orders small pizza and wings.. $24 paid then i forgot drinks again in MC $4 then i forgot sauce again in my MC 1 25.. the place soo cold to sit down and eat. Never come back sir. Thank you.“

“After 4 years of being their customer I have admit the service here can be a hit or miss. at times the pizza is amazing like the best you ever had, but at other times you might regret getting it. Despite that, the staff are great and price-wise it's the best.“

“Always excellent service and food. Please note I always order online and ahead of time I've never ordered in person b4 so I do not know the waiting times. As I order and pickup the pizza is always ready and the service staff is always excellent to deal with. With the location of this place I was happy with food and service. A+++“
