Recent Reviews
The pastries and sandwiches are terrific. Told that their ready made Italian food also good. A well kept secret -- they have the best croissants in Toronto. It's a small neighbourhood cafe-takeout. Nothing fancy. In warm weather you can order a (very good) Italian espresso or latte and sit outside.
Parking: It's mostly a walk-in neighbourhood spot. Friends who've driven from elsewhere have to find spots on the street.

As an Italian, I am constantly being disappointed in this city, however, Pensa Italiano CHANGED that today! The eggplant sandwich I had was FRESH and DELICIOUS. It felt like I was eating something straight from my Grandma's kitchen. Well done and thank you Marzia. I will be back soon!

The VIP has a satisfying crispy texture of the thin panini bread. The ingredients are a classic combo of prosciutto, mozzarella, arugula and olive oil that bring a balance of salty, tangy, bitter, fragrance and freshness.
