I did not care for La Grotta. The pasta sauce was bland and they through our leftovers in the garbage without offering us to take it with us. She took our plates off the table without asking if we were finished eating. Through it in the garbage in front of us without asking us if we wanted the leftovers. The meatballs were very dry and hard. The chili flakes were ground which I thought was strange. For an Italian restaurant, I would not recommend this place.
My wife and I decided to tey something new this evening for dinner in the area. We stumbled upon La Grotta on line. After reading many great reviews with a few not so great (there's always a few that are not happy no matter what) we made a reservation and gave it a go. We don't eat out a whole lot but we're glad we tried this place out. The lady who took care of us treated us as though we were family. The food was delivered fast to the table, and we were very satisfied with both the quality and the quantity of our dishes. We shared a pizza, an order of penne with a lovely rose sauce, and a Cesar salad. With a glass of Perrier each and tip, 64 bucks. We would definitely recommend this cute quiet clean and peaceful establishment to anyone we know. We will most definitely be back again. Many thanks to the kind people who took good care of us there tonight.
Awesome! Have tried the salads,, soups, pasta, panzarotto - everything is excellent. The staff are wonderful as well. Great place.
Absolutely delicious calamari and very tasty pasta. My toddler loves the kids pasta from here. I got the chicken marsala with spaghettini and in the past I also got the Alfredo fusili with chicken. My husband had their chicken Parmigiana. Everytime we get food from here, it is excellent quality.This is our go to Italian food restaurant. Highly recommend.
Excellent local pizzeria. Our go-to place when ordering for home delivery.
Extremely Gracious host. Went above and beyond to prepare a pasta which wasnt on the menu for the picky little one. Spaghetti tasted well and the smoked bacon tossed with olive and eggs added to the flavour. Pizza was awesome as well.
Overcooked pasta with odd tasting tomato sauce, microwaved lemon chicken that smells like boiled hotdogs. Not Italian food. I know the pandemic has hit restaurants hard, but customers still want and deserve good, fresh quality. This was neither. Hopefully the pizza is better
One of the most delicious pizza in Toronto! More expensive than in most places, but the quality is awesome!
Pasta, salad, pizza...all excellent. Friendly staff, full flavour...always top drawer
Friendly staff, great customer service and tasty food ?. Best restaurant on Pape Ave.
