21 Best Italian Restaurants in Vaughan

“We had our wedding dinner at Nascosto and could not have asked for a better experience. From the very beginning, the staff was amazing and helped organize every detail with so much care and attention. The food was outstanding, from the appetizers, to the pasta, to the entrées, everything was incredibly delicious and high quality.

Julian was our event manager for the evening and I truly cannot say enough good things about him. He provided some of the best service we have ever experienced. Thank you to the entire team for your amazing food, hospitality, attention to detail, and for helping make our wedding celebration so memorable.“

“We were visiting Vaughan, staying at a nearby hotel and found this gem- the food was delicious! When it comes to Italian, for us, it is all about the sauce. This sauce was just like Nonna's. Everything was great, servers were attentive and we are planning to return the next time we are in town!“

“Today we celebrated my father’s 90th birthday and there is no better place to celebrate than at Tovico! The food is great, the staff is very professional and make you feel very welcoming. Our guests commented that they would be coming back soon making us feel that they also had a great experience. Thank Riccardo, Tessa, Leo and staff for a great time. See you soon, Mary“

“Excellent food. and very friendly staff. The mushroom salad, veal marsala, and the short ribs were fantastic. We highly recommend this restaurant.“

“Absolute Top Italian Restaurant! Top Food, Top Service and Top Atmosphere. Italian waiters, Italian chefs, Italian homemade food, Italian wines....
L'Antipasto Ristorante blew us away for the time we pulled up to their reserved parking spots. Upon coming close to the front door about to enter the door opened and we were welcomed in by their friendly Italian staff. The menu, which it seems is updated with daily specials, was a fantastic assortment of classic Italian cuisine from all over Italy. We tried the octopus, which was so tender and perfectly presented, we are still talking about how amazing it was the next day. Their pasta was perfect al dente, freshly made that day and cut not extruded, perfection. The service was world class, professional, curious, not rushed at all, focusing on making it feel like you were invited over to your good friends home in Italy for that perfect meal. The house wines - perfectly matched, the cappuccino, amazing! Thank you for the perfect family dinner we will always remember. See you all again soon.“

“We celebrated our daughert and son in law Baby Shower on Sunday, July 20th. We would like to congratulate Il Gatto team members for the exceptional overall service. We were a larger group and from setting up the day before to serving on Sunday everything was wonderfully done. Special mention to Rene for ensuring everyone was looked after in an excellent manner. Well done! 👏👏“

“I’ve been to this restaurant several times. Food is absolutely amazing and for this reason alone I will return. But as far as the owner is concerned … was very disappointed how he treated us. He basically kicked us out of our seats. The couple sitting next to us who were there already when we were seated were still there enjoying their time yet Walter asked my friend and I to leave because he had the next guests waiting. My guess is he had no problem asking us to leave because we were two females hence the reason he felt he could bully us, however, it would be a different story had he asked a couple to leave. Long story short, not impressed with Walter to say the least but food is exceptional!!“

“Extremely good restaurant! as Italian I was never expecting to find these so good quality and tradition on the other side of the earth. Se siete italiani dovete assolutamente mangiare qui!“

“Great place, amazing food and impeccable service.!!!“

“I hired Santino's catering for my daughters baby shower.
First off the owner Joe was easy to deal with and a really nice man. Important when hiring someone.
The food was plentiful and arrived on time. Everything from the antipasto to the main meal was delicious.
I also hired a server from Santino (Daniella) and she was worth every penny. I had time to mingal with my guests and didn't have to worry about anything. She was pleasant and very professional. I never had to tell her what to do. She went around made sure the guests had everything they needed. I turned around to see about dessert and she had already set up the coffee, tea and plated the desserts.
At the end of day she cleaned up her work space (spotless) and had boxed all the leftovers.
I can't say enough about the food and the services it was really worth it. I would use them again in a heart beat. :)“

“We went here for a dinner celebration after a friend's small wedding, the staff were extremely accommodating an amazingly friendly, the answer to our questions quickly and efficiently ...

They checked on us often enough but not overbearing, we were a small party of 13 people and the food all came out perfectly ...

The food was beyond belief, from the antipasti brought to the table that was pre-ordered by the bride and groom, to the entrees that were so flavourful ...

The pizza and the calamari antipasti were absolutely amazing ... Everyone at the table was raving about how beautiful they were cooked and how much taste they had ...

Entrees were a great size, and I think most people even went home with a little bit of leftovers ...

Hope to be able to visit again soon ...

Thank you once again to the owners and the servers for treating us so wonderfully and making the meal that day is so special !!!“

“Went for lunch with my family yesterday, and we had Christine as our server. She was super friendly to my kids and they really enjoyed talking to her. Overall food and service was great!“

“We loved the quiet, comfortable family atmosphere with FANTASTIC food.“

“Amazing food and ambiance“

“I want to say thank you to the staff for the amazing service and great food. I was able to celebrate with my family on 2 events the last two weeks at Romano’s and was impressed both times. The food tasted amazing and the portions are huge. Thank you. 😊“

“Had such a blast in the middle of the week. All you can eat pasta with a glass of wine and coffee. This place had entertainment great singers and they advertised as karaoke but it was more of a sing along. They come to your table serenade and sing with you. Lots of fun loud music. The manager was amazing and very accommodating to requests. Make reservations as it was a full house.“

“The freshest food, of the highest quality served by the nicest of people. Thank you Lisa and Bert for the experience of eating here. I'm so pleased that a place like this still exists, that still cares about what they serve to people. I had the steak wrap but it's almost a disservice to call it a wrap. It's more like a great steak dinner. It was so tasty and filing that I was too full to try anything else. OK, that's not true. I did try one of their homemade desserts. Spectacular. I can't wait to bring my family here. Thanks again!“

“This is by far one of the best Pizza Hut locations in the GTA! The pizza is always fresh, hot, and delicious. The restaurant is clean, and the service is consistently excellent. They always greet customers with a smile and make sure every order is prepared perfectly. Highly recommend this location to anyone looking for great pizza and outstanding customer service!“

“We tried this Italian restaurant for the first time yesterday, and it was a great experience. The service was fantastic, and everyone was very friendly. The food was delicious, and the pacing of the meal was just right. Everything seemed fresh and very authentic. The only areas for improvement would be to enhance the dessert a bit and expand the cocktail selection. Other than that, it was wonderful, and we will definitely be back.“

“great food. friendly staff/owners . very clean. i'll definitely be back.“

“This is one of my go to spots during night cravings. I’m writing this review as this one particular employee deserves it at this location. He’s always shown great customer service, gratitude and has skills that’ll get him far in life. Unsure what his name is but he’s the tallest one who usually works the night shift. Today was different. I was craving pizza and when I got to the location everything was sold out. Especially cheese pizza my favourite. He was kind enough to prepare me a slice with my two fav toppings.

Brother if you’re reading this. You’re very down to earth individual, have a great heart and will def excel in this new journey in Canada.
