Fodor's Review:

What started as a bakery and take-out antipasto bar has grown into a cheerful collage of the Martella family's Italy. Come for animated talk, good food, and great bread in lively rooms with faux-ancient plaster walls, wooden tables, and bright chairs. Choose, if you can, from 40 delectable vegetarian dishes and numerous meat and fish antipasti. Lucia's homemade gnocchi and ravioli are divine, as is the white-chocolate-and-raspberry pie. A seat under the tree on the rear patio is the next best thing to being in Italy.

Reviewed by LJ from Toronto on 3/4/08
Roberto always seems to be a presence at the restaurant he has made a fixture on this part of Yonge St. The food remains consistently imaginative (walnut gnocchi and a trio of finely seasoned and grilled baby sardines). The atmosphere is always lively. Whether you are coming from the city suburbs or San Diego or San Juan, you end the evening feeling like you have come to a part of your own neighbourhood.
