⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We came to Enoteca Sociale for our anniversary dinner and it couldn't have been more perfect. From the moment we walked in, the cozy, intimate vibe and beautiful lighting made it feel like we'd been transported straight to Italy. We started with the bread and burrata, which was absolutely delectable, followed by the arancini — perfectly crisp, rich, and deeply comforting. My wife had the mushroom agnolotti and loved every bite, and the oxtail pasta I ordered was flawless: deeply flavorful, balanced, and clearly made with care and intention. For dessert, we shared the tiramisu — classic and unapologetically traditional. Maybe a touch boozier than our personal preference, but undeniably done the right way. What really elevated the experience was our server, who was warm, outgoing, and incredibly knowledgeable. She answered all our questions with ease and made the whole night feel relaxed and special. Truly some of the best Italian food we've had in Toronto. An unforgettable anniversary dinner — we'll absolutely be back.
We did the Chef's table and WOW! We have never ate so good. The tastings were on point. I tried 3 things I have never ate before. All of which were amazing and I am sure will never get that amazing taste again! Highly recommend
Truly an outstanding dining experience. The service was friendly, helpful and efficient. The appetizers were very good especially the liver mousse and endive dishes. Our main courses were also excellent. I highly recommend Enoteca Sociale.
I was there on Saturday night with a group of 7, the food was incredible and the service was impeccable. Dick our server made our evening memorable, his knowledge of the food and attention to detail is why this restaurant is still going strong.
The food was amazing! And throw in the excellent service (5⭐️++) and it made for a wonderful evening out. It is why we keep coming back and will again...
Very delicious modern Italian fare. Not a quiet nor romantic restaurant, but has a good energy anyway.
My wife and I eat out regularly, and we seek out exciting experiences and fine food. If it's not about the food, what's the point? Enoteca Sociale is the best dining experience we have had in a very long time. From the atmosphere to the staff to the crew in the kitchen (we sat at the Chef's Table) we were treated like VIPs and neighbourhood regulars at the same time. And it was all about the food. The food was spectacular. And the wine paring? All wine's we had never tried and each one an absolute treat. Rob the Sommelier created one of the best wine paring lists I've ever enjoyed. Kira (hope I spelled that correctly) was the perfect server: quick, knowledgeable, read the table and knew we wanted to be part of the gang, and really enjoyed not only serving this amazing food and wine. Watching Nik cook and plate the pasta was like watching a magician. Kelvin (spelling?) kept the kitchen running like a big band conductor, and our only regret was that we didn't get to try one of Angelo's incredible looking salads. But we will be back.
Wow! Felt like we had a night out in Italy, only to emerge to the chilly Toronto streets again - that good.

All around incredible experience. My boyfriend and I celebrated our close birthdays here with the chef's table experience and it lived up to the hype. As food lovers, we were very engaged in the kitchen experience.
Every dish served was of perfect proportion and preparation. Watching the kitchen work together and plate our dishes made the experience that much more special. Being presented with each dish was such a ride through flavour- not overly complex but perfectly made. A stand out in our menu was the tortellini.
Service was incredible. Drinks were phenomenal, especially for the gin lover.
Do yourself a favour. If you love food, yourself and a special experience - book the chef's table and have an incredible dining experience. We booked this through opentable.
We will probably compare most dining experiences to this one in the future :) thank you Enoteca Sociale for giving us such a memorable dining experience.

We had a really good time here for our anniversary. Excellent and personable service, great atmosphere (music a little loud). Some suggestions: the arancini need to be reworked. The filling was not seasoned, leaving it all to the tomato sauce to provide flavour. A more classic take with the sauce inside might work better, as well as adding peas. The amatriciana was also lacking in texture. My recommendation is to switch to hard pasta with rougher texture instead of homemade pasta (which would also make it closer to the original recipe). The cacio and pepe was fantastic, and the agnolotti were the star of the show. Sticky toffee pudding excellent too.

Great location for Italian food with great service and very nice atmosphere. I had sourdough & focaccia, agnolotti ai funghi, tiramisu and espresso.

Good. Nothing out of this world, very pricey
I took my Italian grandfather here for dinner. He is 90 + years old. He was treated so well and enjoyed the food so much! Thank you for accommodating him. He loved it!! He is still talking about how good the pasta and wine were!

We've been coming to Enoteca for years. We were introducing our friends to it last night and had been telling them how great it was. Was very disappointed last night. Service was slow - waiters seemed overloaded, as did kitchen in terms of speed that dishes were coming out. Two of my 3 courses were poorly done. Only appetizer was excellent. Cacia e Pepe, one of your signature dishes was extremely overly peppered - my throat burned and I could hardly taste the cheese. I did not send it back as it would not have been possible to have it remade in reasonable time and eat with my friends . We were a party of 4. One friend, who ordered same pasta, could not finish hers because of the high pepper content. I had chocolate gelato with my espresso for Affogato - the chocolate gelato was as hard as a rock and had ice in the middle - obviously not much of it is sold and it had been in freezer too long. Gelato is supposed to have a medium texture with no lumps of ice in it. Not a great experience last night.
Great good, great service ! Really reccomend
