So I went to dinner this past Thursday (which is my favourite evening of the week) to Pizzeria Libretto on Ossington and all I can say is it was absolutely amazing. Yes, I do like my pizza, but the sweet combination of cutlure, wine and food had be yearning the night would never end.The food was true Italian style with a great gourmet twist (Pizzeria Libretto makes the only real Neapolitan pizza in Toronto). The staff was friendly, approachable and not bad to look at either. The wine list that will have you indecently drooling over Italian Wine choices and the chic urban environment will have you arriving early to avoid waiting in line. If you go with a party of 3 order a quartino of wine (can also be ordered in glass, 1/2 litre and bottle), which will give each of you the perfect amount to be able to try a few different wines over the course of the evening - obviously a must when eating Italian food. You can't go wrong with matching local with local. My favourite part was that the wine was served in Tumblers. Who needs Terroni when you have Pizzeria Libretto.
I can't wait to go back... but might need to take some Italian courses before trying to pronounce the menu...but a visit to Italy wouldn't hurt either...Rocco Agostino you definitely rock.
A must visit restaurant for everyone.
Pizzeria Libretto , 221 Ossington Toronto
