Had the absolute pleasure of hosting our intimate wedding ceremony and reception in their event space and it was perfect! The food was delicious and generous enough that everyone had leftovers to take home. The space was exactly what we were looking for and fit with our simple decor. It was private and away from the main restaurant. We dealt with Emma to organize the event and detail our lunch- she was great and attentive to our needs. It was a first for many of our guests but definitely not the last as everyone enjoyed the food, service and overall ambiance of the space. Can’t wait to come back. Thank you to the team for really making our day special!

Over the top, overpriced and overrated eatery! They care more about presentation than quantity!! Had the cacio e pepe and it was watery and tasteless with the burrata sitting on top of a forkful of pasta!! Risotto for $40+…You got to be kidding me!!! I can make it for $7 at home and it tasted better!! Won’t ever come back and won’t recommend!! Take out a mortgage before you come here!!👎🏻👎🏻

Nice clean place for the area but a very eclectic venue. I couldn't find anything that I wanted to eat which is rare. I ended up walking out

Decided to try this restaurant on a hunch, and was pleasantly surprised. The restaurant was tucked away in the midst of industrial zone, with a small market attached. The market was closed after my meal, though they had a good selection of wines, olive oils, and some fresh pasta.
For appetizers, we had lamb speducci, which was not listed in any menus, but the lamb skewers were amazing. The steak and egg from the brunch menu is amazing, my steak was perfectly cooked to order, and the smashed potatoes were a hit. The cheesecake and tiramisu desserts were also great, with a bit of a show as presentation. Our server, Chris, did a good job with our table.

This special night at Speducci started on a brilliantly high note. Lamb skewers are exceptionally juicy and tender, with a captivatingly colourful char and perfect medium-rare pink center. Seasoned with the perfect amount of salt, it lets the rich, caprine aromas shine. I normally don’t order charcuterie boards, but it’s hard to pass when they cure their own meats, and the difference is evident. Each day you’ll get something different, but no matter what, it’ll always be thoughtfully curated. The strozzapreti allo scoglio features a whole mosaic of seafood and a unique pasta shape that looks way too similar to pieces of squid. While short, its twisted shape allows it to carry the white wine and cherry tomato broth that’s light yet flavourful, balancing seafood sweetness, tangy tomatoes, wine and olive oil. The Neapolitan-style pizza is charred for a crackly crust, while the thin undercarriage balances the sublime tangy red sauce, bitter radicchio, and maple-smoked pancetta for a bite that has everything. A fleeting moment that needed savouring, as the chef's special of the day was a fulfilling serving of ravioli with a nutty, subtly sweet butternut squash puree. The pasta has a pleasant, chewy al dente texture, coated in an incredibly rich and creamy gorgonzola sauce, and whispers of cheesy funk. The crushed amaretti cookies and toasted walnuts were mesmerizing, adding a much-needed contrast. The almond cookies add a marzipan-like sweetness to counteract the cheesy sauce and contribute a crunchy, nutty textural variance. We finished our meal with a modern spin on the classic tiramisu, with a spongy and moist dark chocolate cake concealed under a silky mascarpone cream. The richer cheesiness is an appealing contrast to the amarena cherries, bringing a sweet-tart acidity and slight crispness of the skin, which bursts with juice when bitten. Then, milk chocolate is shaved on top to complete the black forest flavour profile with an added cocoa depth, while the distinct booziness reminds you somewhat that it’s a tiramisu-ish.

Enjoyed a lovely Christmas dinner night out with dear friends at this wonderful place!
Ambiance, food and service were spectacular!
Authentic italian food!
I enjoyed sharing the Frittura, Insalata di Cavolo, the Pizza bianca con nduja, and their in-house panettone.. and wine, of course. All delicious!
Thank you to Rosie and staff for attending to our large and noisy group... it was a very memorable night!
