My friend and I had a great meal here on our recent trip to Toronto. After researching Toronto’s many pizza options on Google maps we settled on Libretto, because I really wanted Neapolitan style pizza but importantly, we needed a gluten free and vegan option for my friend. If you are gluten free, do not sleep on Librettos! The gluten free crust was so good we had to double check with the staff that it really was gluten free! All the staff who helped us were kind and friendly...

Ordered 2 pizzas to go yesterday- one neapolitan pepperoni and one NY pepperoni. They were both delicious, but the NY was my favourite because if the crispy crust. They also make the best frozen pizzas as well!
September 2025
We dined here during TIFF and had the pesto gnocchi and the margherita pizza. The pizza was really thin but was tasty.

The pesto gnocchi was very flavorful! Price is not too bad. Service is also topnotch!
