Awesome ambiance and food. Had our daughter's wedding reception there in the summer and decided to end the year with a family dinner at the restaurant. Very lovely decor and great Italian cuisine!

We were at Slate for an early dinner. Prima Vera pizza and spaghetti bolognese were both excellent. Great atmosphere and service. We’ll be back soon, Mark and Kathy

We have come here many times and it is always a wonderful meal. Thank you for being in the Beach.
We went to The Slate to celebrate Mother's Day, but unfortunately, it was a big disappointment.
I ordered a $40+ sirloin steak, and it was honestly the worst steak I've ever had. It was incredibly dry, tough, and burned around the edges—I felt like I was chewing on shoe leather. It tasted like the cheapest cut of meat, overcooked to the point of being inedible.
My husband ordered some kind of ravioli, and it was a disaster as well. It was so over-seasoned and drowned in salty cheese that he couldn’t even finish it. We definitely won’t be going back.

The best Italian restaurant I've been in downtown Toronto. My girlfriend and I wanted to go on a date night and we had seen this place from outside and just thought to give it a chance and boy oh boy it was worth every penny!! The saffron risotto balls were just out of this place and it was the first time that I had tried it and same was with the margarita pizza and then they hit it out of the park with the lava cake topped with vanilla ice cream . Anybody who wants to have a perfect date night with food to crave for , please come here and on the top of that the lady who was waiting us was the best host . Just loved it !!

My husband and I had a great time on the patio! I had the Pollo Limone which was fantastic and just the right amount of food. The atmosphere was lovely, I really liked the flower wall for taking pictures to mark a special occasion. All around great time here. Having said that, it's pretty pricey so it's good for a nice treat every once in a while!
Overall really good. The pastas are really fresh with thick flavorful, rich sauces. I enjoyed the Linguine Asiago Di Pollo, minus the chicken. I found the chicken to be a low quality shredded from a whole chicken or thighs and it was quite dry. I would've preferred a breast cut up or nothing at all. The sauce and pasta were perfect, but the chicken lessened the quality.

Seven of us went there last night, during the busy Queen Street Jazz Festival. All the meals were good except the prosciutto salad, which was excessively salty. Bethany's service was exceptional, even though she said it was her second night serving! All in all, it was a good experience!
