My favourite restaurant in Toronto! Been here many times and I've never been disappointed in any of their rotating pasta dishes. If you're getting dessert, do not skip the tiramisu! Check their Instagram for their weekly menu, but really you can't go wrong with any dish they cook up. Service is also great and the seating upstairs is so charming.

Love this little place. It's a cozy place with pastas changing every few weeks/month. The food was delish. I had an issue with half of a dish and Megan offered to get us a better piece but instead brought a whole new plate up for us. The staff are all really friendly. Would highly recommend as a date night or for any pasta fans.

The space itself is really nice and has a cool vibe, but unfortunately the food didn’t live up to it. The pasta we had was very underwhelming, no real flavor and nothing memorable. For the prices they’re charging, there are definitely much better options out there. The place looks great, but at least based on what we ordered, the food just wasn’t worth it.

Everything but the pasta stands out. Interesting takes on pasta. One was a beef pie in pasta form with large carrots and leeks and even pie crust for texture. Didn’t really land. Flat bread was good, all the vegetables and sides were flavourful.
Knowledge service and friendly. Intimate upstairs dining room upstairs and view of the small kitchen dining downstairs.

Delicious! The food was so good. Very fresh, seasonal menu using more unique flavour combos. Atmosphere is cute. It's small and intimate. We did have to keep our coats on, but it was absolutely freezing outside, so a little drafty by the main floor windows. We didn't mind. Service was good - prompt and friendly. I look forward to returning!
Our server was so nice and funny. She was very helpful with recommendations. Found this place on Reddit, awesome food!

Had a wonderful meal at Annabelle’s. I ordered the smoked pork chop and had the Annabelle spritz and my friend ordered the rigatoni and we shared the broccoli/artichoke side. Everything tasted amazing. They change the main menu every week, keeping it fresh. Given how good everything was we will definitely be back!
We sat at the bar, which wasn’t the most comfortable. But couldn’t complain cos we didn’t need to wait and got to watch the chefs prepare the meals. The place was busy, with people still coming in at 930 for a seating. Recommend making a reservation. There is limited seating on the first floor, so wouldn’t consider the location particularly accessible. Free parking was available on Dupont. Don’t know how easy it would be to access it though earlier in the evening - we went around 830pm.

From the hearty pasta to succulent ribs, Annabelle is your next date night destination, and yes, I mean a date with Annabelle, as you’d want to marry her and her cooking. Starting with the Po Bianco, the puffy, chewy texture was like biting into a cloud, with a delightful spring and a profound yeasty aroma, adding a subtle backdrop of umami as your nose plunges into a pile of grated cheese. The addictive texture is layered with a creamy white bean dip and an herbaceous pesto that only festers the excitement of our mains. The ravioli, stuffed with a mellow and well-balanced sausage filling that punches your taste buds with umami while not being overly salty. The pasta was perfectly al dente, with just the right amount of thickness and chew to not detract from the bite. The corn puree — rich, buttery and fragrant — added a delightful sweetness that meshed seamlessly with the sausage. Next, the comforting embrace of the wide pappardelle noodles was only reinforced with a bold, flavourful addition of shredded chili beef and punchy tomato sauce, which both cling onto each strand wondrously to create a harmonious bite. Even if you went in blind, the pork ribs with dragon tongue beans will definitely catch your eye. The two elements are two sides of the same coin, where the succulent, tender pork ribs are contrasted with a refreshingly crisp and acidic dragon tongue beans. Slathered with a sweet and tangy BBQ sauce, the caramelization is the tip of the iceberg to the rich, porky flavours housed underneath, which is also finished with a touch of flake salt. Meanwhile, the beans were tossed in an appetizing vinaigrette, but still let their grassy, earthy undertone shine. Then I absolutely couldn’t leave without dessert, and Tiramisu was the easy choice. Featuring silky smooth mascarpone, a fragrant espresso powder, and lady fingers soaked in a mellow coffee liqueur, they all combined to form the classic flavours that I’d expect.
