I’m so glad I found this restaurant. It is family owned and run. The owner will make you feel like part of the family as well. I had the cheese and spinach ravioli with cream sauce. The sauce had a light, creamy, buttery flavor which was way better than most places that serve a heavy floury sauce. Cappuccino and Italian ice cream was the perfect combination to top off this amazing lunch!
We chose this venue for our son's confirmation and no regrets. Firstly, the communication with Fiorina was excellent. She responded quickly and answered every questions I posed her way. She accommodated our needs, and I could see that the Tucci Family put in their best efforts to make our event extra special.
The food was amazing. The portions were huge. The hospitality was top notch. The room came together beautifully. I highly recommend Il Porcellino in Mississauga a hidden gem for your next private event. We can't wait to host our next event here! The fact that there was no one in the restaurant during our celebration truly maintained the mood and helped all the focus be on us. Thank you, Tucci Family , for an unforgettable experience.

This place is a literal gem! Been coming here for the past 3 years and they have never disappointed me. Their marinara sauce is sooo good! I always order the panzerottis or veal sandwiches. They are massive! And stuffed with cheese! The prices are more than fair. Happy to support this small business any day, they deserve it👏🏼😀 really wish they would bring back their own delivery though, I can't stand the delivery apps.

They have the Best Eggplant Sandwich!

This place is a hidden gem. We tried their sandwich,salad and garlic bread very tasty.

Egg plant sandwich is so good and must try. We wanted to try chicken sandwich too but it was already sold out at 7 pm, just imagine.

Small place but has enough sitting area. Plenty of parking.
We were relieved we made reservations for an early Saturday night dinner as this place was hopping. Our server was okay, didn’t engage too much and didn’t acknowledge the birthdays our group was celebrating. The cocktails were delicious- recommend the peach Bellini. The Caesar salad for two was small, nothing special, and did not have enough dressing so we requested more. The pizza was delicious. Pasta dishes’ portions were generous. Spaghetti Carbonara was dry and bland, definitely needed more sauce and something to boost the flavour. Pasta Bolognese was good but the abundance of fresh basil overtook the taste. Chicken parmigiana was good. This is a noisy, busy, happening place and people are loving it based on the crowds lined up to get a table.

Ordered 4 hot veal sandwiches, there was no sauce and very dry. Went in there once a week for years for veal sandwiches and Angelo was there and made the best veal sandwiches. Don’t know if Angelo still works there but he definitely did not make these ones. Very disappointed
I used to frequent California sandwiches, after hearing about La Parmigiana, I had to try it for myself. The sauce, the Veal everything was excellent. Family run business and family feel, very nice very welcoming and all around excellent. Sandwich and pop under $20
I’ll definitely be back, this is my new go to, thank you La Parmigiana
Fresh ingredients and creative recipes are the hallmarks of Scaddabush Italian Kitchen & Bar's modern take on Italian food, which is noted for its lively dining environment. Usually with a sophisticated decor that includes exposed brick walls and contemporary lighting, the restaurant has a vibrant environment.

Various Italian classics, such wood-fired pizzas, handmade pastas, and delectable antipasti dishes, are frequently offered on their menu. Their inventiveness and culinary prowess may also be on display as they present distinctive takes on classic dishes.

About service, Scaddabush wants to make sure that visitors are made to feel at home as soon as they walk through the door by offering kind and cordial hospitality. Scaddabush is a restaurant that combines a lively ambiance, tasty food, and pleasant service to create a wonderful overall eating experience.
Scaddabush is an absolute gem, and my recent dining experience there was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment I walked in, the ambiance was inviting, with its warm and welcoming atmosphere. However, what truly set this dining experience apart was the outstanding service provided by waitress Victoria.

Victoria's attention to detail and genuine warmth elevated the entire dining experience. She greeted us with a smile and promptly guided us through the menu, offering insightful recommendations tailored to our preferences. Her knowledge of the dishes was impressive, and her passion for the cuisine was evident in her enthusiastic descriptions.

Throughout the meal, Victoria demonstrated impeccable timing, ensuring that our orders were delivered promptly and that we never felt rushed. She checked in with us regularly to ensure everything was to our satisfaction, going above and beyond to accommodate any requests we had.

In addition to Victoria's exceptional service, the food at Scaddabush was simply divine. Each dish was crafted with care, bursting with flavor and made with the freshest ingredients. From the indulgent pasta dishes to the mouthwatering appetizers and desserts, every bite was a delight to the senses.

Overall, my experience at Scaddabush was nothing short of memorable, thanks in large part to the outstanding service provided by Victoria. Her professionalism, attentiveness, and genuine hospitality truly made the evening unforgettable. I highly recommend Scaddabush to anyone looking for a culinary experience that exceeds expectations, and be sure to ask for Victoria to take your dining experience to the next level.
They get my order wrong every time. The pasta dishes are dry and flavorless. They NEVER have the rapini they list on their menu either. TERRIBLE…
So, I guess there’s a forever shortage because a year ago they stated the exact same issue. Maybe the description should be edited? Extra DRY pasta is NEVER a substitution for a fresh vegetable. And just because it’s written on the order doesn’t make it acceptable. That’s not what I paid for. And I can assure you that the dish was warm when it arrived and opened immediately and it was DRY AND FLAVORLESS AGAIN. Maybe the sauce should’ve been put on the side?!?! That would be common sense… It’s interesting how instead of improving their food items and accepting responsibility for consistent and poorly prepared meal items and making some adjustments, excuses are being made to blame a food shortage, and a customer who paid for their meal, for not consuming the food in a timely manner. Imagine that…
Hunter was AMAZING to say the least. We came in tonight at about 6 pm, very busy on the way to a hotel in Toronto to catch a flight. He recommended the Naked which was phenomenal, we got gnocchi, spaghetti & meatball & chicken Parmesan. My daughter works at an Italian restaurant so she’s picky on the taste side and I work in hospitality as well so I am picky on the service side. Everything was amazing but the service is what makes or breaks a meal and he made it great! Thank you, Hunter!
I'm never disappointed whenever I come here to dine in for lunch or dinner. I just wanted to share my recent experience that I had here at this specific Scaddabush location in Mississauga on 03/16/2024. I dined in for lunch with 2 of my other friends. We tried their '3-cheese truffle charity bread' and it was absolutely delicious. It was somewhat busy but service was reasonably quick and decent.

As I was waiting for my order (chicken & gnocchi), one of the female managers' with tattoos and glasses approached me and apologized after telling me that my order did not turn out they way she hoped it had. I was not expecting for her genuine concern and truthfully, I wasn't complaining and didn't have an issue if my order didn't look appetizing (food is going to go down the same way regardless).

I forgot her name but the female manager was an absolute angel and gem! She went above and beyond despite that what I thought was minor was extremely important for her to try and 'fix.' She offered me their complimentary 'Italian garden greens' salad while I waited for my main (it was super refreshing, zesty and tasty). When I did get my main dish, it was definitely worth waiting for. The gnocchi was a tad bit salty for my liking but everything else was perfect! Thank you again to the wonderful manager who made sure my friends and I had a quality dine in experience!
We had an amazing experience at this location!

We came in for our daughter's 7yr birthday.
Our server Hunter was amazing. He was engaging especially with our daughter, informative and gave out menu suggestions based on how we were "feeling" for food.

The food was excellent as we've expected.

Thank you Hunter!
Very friendly, family owned restaurant. Great service and the food is fantastic! Long time customer. If you need an event catered, order early! You will not be disappointed.😊
Best veal sandwich I had in my life. For the price, this is worth everything. Very, very kind staff.

Fast and friendly service. Thanks
I went to this location a couple weeks ago. Our waitress was extremely friendly and very helpful. He recommended all of the items that we would absolutely love. And we absolutely did love them. Check out the little handle at the bottom of the door in the bathroom so you do not have to touch the door handle. Also, the menstrual cycle thing for the woman’s bathroom is battery operated so you don’t have to touch that either. It was very clean in there. The food was a little pricey, but worth it. I am definitely looking forward to going back again oh, and look how much extra sauce our waiter gave us.
We use La Parmigiana for catering at home. Absolutely the best food! The most tender veal, meaty lasagna and the sides are delicious. The service is excellent. If you have a function soon. Definitely order from La Parmigiana. You won't be disappointed.
La Parmigiana has some of the best Italian food I've ever eaten. I had the minestrone soup and it was absolutely delicious. The portions are huge! The family that owns the restaurant is so nice, very concerned with your comfort and dining experience. A great place to get lunch!

Excellent food and excellent service
I would recommend this location over every other location
Amazing night staff made my experience on Feb 7 2024
Great place, great food and superb service. We went in for some casual dining and found the food to be fresh and the service top notch.
Seating was comfortable but place was busy and noisy which irks you sometimes but not a biggie.
Service was friendly and prompt in spite of the rush, which is impressive.
Our pizza and kids pasta was great. Though the food was fresh, it was probably a bit too Italian (read: bland) for my liking as I like bursts of flavours. We sat down to watch the mozzarella making at the counter too.
With a little less noise it would be great.

Had my girlfriends dinner there last night. Everything was absolutely perfect! The atmosphere and ambiance was class.

Our server was efficient, friendly and very hospitable.

Most importantly the food was the best part!! The meatballs and calamari were absolutely spot on.
The mains courses (veal and risotto). The portions were very generous and extremely tasty. Something that Nonna would prepare.

At one point no body was talking and ALL plates were practically licked clean.

Tremendous job all around 👏. We'll definitely be back!

This place is awesome! I ordered the veal sandwich and it was one of the best I've had and the portions are so generous (my mouth is watering just thinking about it). Not only was the food great, the service was also amazing. The staff was really warm and welcoming staff, and I even got to meet the owner- you can tell right away that he's passionate and that he cares a lot about each individual customer's experience. Can't wait to go back! :)

Love the spices in some of the speciality pizzas 🍕 they pizza nova offers.
Awesome crust, great staff, fair pricing all things considered.
Our family went for our Christmas dinner at La Scala. We have been there before for dinner and also had my daughter's Communion and Confirmation there. We have had great experiences before so decided to have our Christmas dinner there.

Biggest mistake EVER !!! The service was terrible. We were all there for 4 hrs. Took forever, and the food was terrible. The portions were extremely small and everyone was still hungry when we left.

If you need to go for a family function , GO SOMEWHERE ELSE. Very unprofessional and rude to everyone. 20% tip added to each of our bills which should have been 18%. Don't get me wrong if the food and service was great I wouldn't mind paying the money . For my family alone it was almost $600. I felt so bad for the rest of my family. They were all disappointed.

My husband called the next day and said if she would do anything. Again she was rude and said she was busy. Offered 5% back on our tip. What a joke. Not worth our time. We were returning customers and we were treated like garbage.

Hands down one of the best pizza 🍕 in Mississauga. This place is located in a strip mall at Clayton.

The menu is short with pizza, sandwiches and pasta. As I was there at lunch time, the only pizza available were veggie, cheese and pepperoni pizza. I had a slice of pepperoni pizza and it was amazing. The sauce, the meat, the cheese were excellent but the highlight of the pizza was the bread. Delicious, home cooked and soft with crust on the outside. It was everything you wanted in a good pizza.
Service is quick and efficient, they didn't give any cutlery but wrapped in a napkin which was big enough to enjoy the meal. You won't feel the need for any cutlery.

Do visit if you are in the area.
A family run business and it really shows. The food is all homemade and absolutely delicious. Great prices and generous portions. Staff are all super friendly. It's like going to a family friend's place for lunch.

I have enjoyed every dining experience I've ever had at Grano over the last ~6 years. I don't generally post reviews, but my most recent experience was so outstanding, I felt it was worth mentioning. As a past customer I know reservations are the way to go, but I had a colleague in town on short notice so we dropped in. We were warmly greeted, and informed there were 2 large parties in front of us, so there would be a wait. We were just happy there was a table as their Pollo Amore is worth any wait! Our waitress was extremely pleasant and mixed us some unique and fantastic martinis as we enjoyed the warm and cozy atmosphere. After a delicious meal, we had the Toblerone creme brulee and cheesecake. An excellent end to an excellent night!

Great experience! Excellent food. House wines are great! Service was good. Daniella (spl?) is the bar tender but she also waited on us. Her drinks are top notch. Best espresso martini my wife ever had…we now know the secret! ;)

Grilled Calamari appetizer. Half moon ricotta stuffed pasta for me (vodka style “red” sauce) and my wife had an amazing veal dish (veal was unbelievably tender). I think all veal dishes are great.

Italian house wines pair with perfection to the menu.
Probably the best Veal sandwich I have had in a while.

Sounds like they make everything fresh. Once they sell out of what was made for the day that’s it so make sure you get there in good time for lunch.

Nice mom and pop operation with a truly authentic feel. Staff were very friendly and provided genuine good service.

The location is a little hidden away and unassuming but worth the venture.

Great Italian sandwiches at San Francesco in Mississauga! I got the chicken parm sandwich with cheese, sweet peppers, and carmalized onions. It was delicious, full of flavour and big chicken pieces 😋 Clean restaurant with room to eat in if you want but I got take out. Very pleasant and friendly staff.

Incredibly Romantic.

My wife and I only had one opportunity to have dinner in Mississauga and we are so glad we found Grano Ristorante and they had room for us. It's a tiny little place but filled to the brim with atmosphere. From the moment we stepped in the door we knew we had found something special.

We were quickly seated, tucked away in a little corner. The Caprese was recommended to us for a starter so we had to try it, it had great flavor and the mozzarella had a perfect texture.

For main course we went with two of their features, the Ravioli in Rosé sauce danced across my tastebuds, I could not get enough of that sauce, I literally cleaned my plate. My wife got a chicken feature with red sauce that she has not stopped talking about hours later. She loves red sauce and insists its better than her own Italian grandmother's. We were completely stuffed afterwards and couldn't make room for dessert but they sounded homemade and delicious.

I could never say enough positive things about the service. We truly felt welcome and taken care of in a way that made us feel at home in a city we have never visited before.

Bring someone you love to Grano Ristorante, they deserve it. Just consider calling ahead because it seems like other people know how special this place is too.
Food was delicious. Had the agnolloti in a rose sauce. Service was good but took awhile. I called 30min before and had to wait another 15. Also on the pricey side for what I got.

We’ve been coming here for over a decade. Even our child loves it! The service is always outstanding. We celebrated a birthday here recently, and our server made the dining experience extra special and he was very attentive. The risotto and fettuccine pasta are our favorites. Our kid loves them too. We hope they continue to do well for a very long time.

Definitely recommend.

Had a minor mix-up with our order, but the way the staff at Popular Pizza handled it was commendable. They were quick to correct the mistake and even threw in a complimentary dessert. It's not just about the pizza here; it's about genuine care for customers. Will be back for sure.

WAY overated. We came here based only on the amazing google reviews. It tasted like was prepared by the staff of a pizza franchise. We sat on the outside and the host/ staff looked at us like we could not afford to eat here and did us a favor by giving us a table at 5:45 pm in an empty restaurant. LOL! Guys, I travel the world for food.

Risotto tasted like bought from Costco and was microwaved just before servings.
Lamb chop tasted gamey ( and I love lamb and have it often)
Seafood app was the worst tasting dish I have had in years. Tough low quality products offered at a high price.
Seafood pasta- forgetfull and under seasoned. Would have enjoyed it more if they bought frozen prepared seafood pasta from Costco. It tasted like to prepared in a air fyer. There was a lack of executation and seasoning in the all the food we ordered tonight. But food presention was OK.

They have a fake show where they open the sun vents for 5 minutes, kinda cool unless you are sitting nearby. All the debris fell on the guest and food. They were NOT happy.

Only good things was how pour the wine into a decanter and then pour itin your glass. ( kinda cool the first time you see it) It may have high review ONLY If you dont compare it to any Italian restaurants in Toronto. It is very busy so they have lots of regular clients but save your time and money to go downtown or there is a few good Italian places in Brampton . I had better Italian food in a one $ / star establishment.

It is a dated style restaurants with very senior staff that only take care of their regular customers. The new females staff was useless on a Saterday night when we visited ealry in their dinner service so it was not busy. She forgot about our table when we asked for items amd had to ask her a second time on 3 occasions.

Senior Staff seems to have have worked there for 30 years+ and it shows. Was not a refined dinning experience at all, it was kind of sad. It was like a 16 year old son borrowing his dad car and oversized suit for his first date in high school and eating in a expensive place- trying way too hard to impress everyone and they failed to make a positive expression with me.
We had a very enjoyable evening. The food, service, and ambiance was great. Perfect for any occasion, will definitely go back.

We celebrated our special family birthday- and we chose THE RIGHT PLACE. Awesome food. Great service by Tony. Little pricey but awesome for special occasions.

Food temperature and taste was just amazing.

Tony was awesome - funny, and he suggested a great gluten free meal for my niece.

Ambience...... top class.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Popular Pizza, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. This pizzeria has certainly earned its reputation as a local favorite.

The moment I walked in, I was greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere. The cozy seating and the aroma of freshly baked pizza instantly put me in the mood for a great meal. The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating, making me feel right at home.

Now, let's talk about the star of the show—the pizza! I ordered their signature "Popular Supreme" pizza, and it was nothing short of spectacular. The crust was perfectly thin and crispy, providing the ideal foundation for a medley of high-quality toppings. The blend of fresh vegetables, savory meats, and a generous amount of cheese created a harmonious explosion of flavors in every bite.

What sets Popular Pizza apart is their dedication to using top-notch ingredients. You can taste the difference in the sauce, which had a rich, robust tomato flavor that complemented the toppings perfectly. It's clear that they take great pride in their craft.

The menu offers a wide variety of options, from classic Margherita to unique specialty pizzas, ensuring there's something for everyone. Whether you're a meat lover, a veggie enthusiast, or prefer something in between, you won't be disappointed.

In addition to the pizza, they also offer a selection of appetizers, salads, and desserts to round out your meal. I couldn't resist trying their garlic knots, which were soft, garlicky, and downright addictive.

The prices at Popular Pizza are reasonable, considering the quality of the food and the generous portion sizes. It's a great value for the taste and experience you receive.

To top it all off, the service was exceptional. The staff was attentive without being overbearing, and they made sure my dining experience was nothing short of excellent.

I was driving by and remembered, I hadn't eaten at Andiamo restaurant in such a long time. Made reservations for that evening.
It was exactly how I loved it then, and now.
Started with antipasto. Which is my favorite.
I could eat Caprese salad 24-7 and still want more. There Osso bucco is to die far.
This restaurant is a must to see, a must to taste and experience. Nestled in the quaint village in the city. Streetsville in Mississauga.
Let me know your experience. Trust me. You won't be disappointed.

I wanted freshly made pasta, so we found this place. It was delicious! I had a dirty gray goose martini with extra olives. The drink was good, but the olives were tiny and had pits. Maybe just get some wine instead. Do not let this deter you, though, because the service and food are fantastic. My husband had the spicy arribatta pasta, and I had the chicken parm but with the fettuccine instead of the penne because the fettuccine was made there. I also tried their rose sauce, which was tasty. The portion sizes are big, I couldn't finish mine. It was all really enjoyable. I'd go again.
They have the best lasagna I've ever had! Been there a couple times now and it's the first thing I order :)
Very quaint place with friendly staff. Near the airport so if you're staying nearby I definitely recommend you check them out.

This place was a bit small and unusually warm. The food though was fantastic. I had the Pasta Nonna and it was FANTASTIC.

My partner had the seafood pasta which, while good, isn't as tasty as Grano at square one.

If you're in the mood for a creamier pasta this place is perfect, more seafoody mood though maybe elsewhere.

Desert was OK, will try cheesecake next time.

Was so impressed with the food! The calamari appetizer was the most tender I have ever had…it was delicious. I had special of the day spaghetti with seafood and a lemon sauce. It was delicious. Pasta was cooked perfection and fish was all fresh and delicious. We were there for a friends birthday. She had a lamb shank and she loved hers. I had a bite. It was delicious and tender. The mashed potatoes were amazing. Could not resist a bite!! My other friend had pasta with steak I don’t remember the name off hand it was also delicious. We all tried each others and the sweetest thing, they gave a piece of tiramisu on the house for my friends birthday. I would definitely recommend, and I thought the prices were very reasonable. The only thing I would say is the atmosphere is a little bit dated could use a little sprucing, but I could definitely overlook that any day of the week because the food is that good!

Two Guys From Italy is tucked away in a small plaza in Streetsville. I was craving some pasta so my partner and I decided to give this place a try. The food was good and the service was great! We did not get the name of our server but she was fast, efficient and friendly. We got the Calamari, Greek salad, Bruschetta and Chicken Fettuccine. None of the dishes stood out over the other, they all were good choices and satisfied our cravings. Pricing was fair and portions were big. We would definitely visit here again
We celebrated Canada Day at Two Guys from Italy with my family. The servers provided excellent service, the food was decent, and the ambiance was welcoming. Overall, it was a pleasant experience worth trying.
The service was good and the food was super delicious. I got the salmon with fettuccine in a creamy dill sauce. It was absolutely delicious! I recommend this place. Small and cozy.

My favorite Italian place. Not the greatest ambience but the food more than makes up for it.
Went on a Saturday evening with my wife for her birthday. We booked a reservation and we're seated in the patio section which was perfect for the evening weather. Parking seemed to be plentiful however we walked over. Living in the area all my life, I was surprised to learn that Alioli has been open since 1996.

Our server was very quick and attentive, we didn't have to wait long for food. All our dishes were delicious, starting with the insalata calabrese and calamari and for our mains, the penne di casa which has chicken and the penne le vodka which my wide substituted the with mushrooms. I recommend trying the drink Italian Surfer as it was quite tasty.

While being a bit on the pricey side, portions are great and the overall food and service is outstanding. Would highly recommend espailly for small gatherings and events or a simple date night.

Alioli Ristorante is a hidden gem in the heart of Mississauga . The warm and cozy ambiance of the restaurant is perfect for a romantic date or a night out with friends. The staff is friendly and attentive, making you feel at home as soon as you step inside.

Ambience

It's good and completely Italian style.
Tried house special pizza and it had a different taste from the local pizza.
May not be a great choice for people who eat more spices.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Alioli Ristorante, an Italian restaurant that left a lasting impression on me. My family and I have specific dietary requirements; my father is a meat-eater but allergic to seafood, while my mother is a vegetarian who doesn't like mushrooms. However, the staff, especially Antonio, went above and beyond to ensure that we had an enjoyable dining experience.
Antonio was incredibly kind and hospitable, taking note of our dietary restrictions and providing suggestions that catered to our needs. For my mother, he prepared the Butternut Squash Ravioli, traditionally made with mushrooms but made without mushrooms for her, and it was absolutely delicious. The dish was expertly prepared, and the butternut squash filling was perfectly seasoned.
For my father, Antonio recommended the Lamb Chops, which were tender, juicy, and bursting with flavor. The meat was cooked to perfection and seasoned just right. As for myself, I am a fish lover, and Antonio suggested the Pan-seared Seabream fish. The fish was fresh and perfectly cooked, and it came served with couscous, which added an extra layer of flavor to the dish.
We finished our meal with the Tiramisu, which was appropriately sweet and incredibly soft. It was clear that the dessert had been made with care and attention to detail, almost as if it had been made to order just for us.
The ambiance of the restaurant was also lovely, with soft lighting and cozy seating arrangements. The service was outstanding, and the staff went out of their way to make us feel welcome and comfortable.
Overall, I highly recommend Alioli Ristorante to anyone looking for exceptional Italian cuisine and a memorable dining experience. The food was outstanding, the service was impeccable, and the ambiance was perfect for a relaxing evening out. Thank you, Antonio, and the rest of the staff, for making our evening so enjoyable!
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟Just as you walk in, you are greeted with so much love and care. I felt like a part of the family. Tried 4 different dishes on the menu, ravioli, veal, chicken parm, everything was excellent, a little bland for my taste but soooo flavorful. And while you wait for your food they'll bring you the best cup of expresso freshly ground just for you.
It's the little things like that that made me fall in love porcellino.
The best thing is that everyone makes time to chat with you and spends a little one on one. Keep it up👏🏽👏🏽
💥💥💥UPDATE 💥💥💥
Tried there pizza for the first time Oh My GoD, wood fire oven, fresh dough, fresh sauce, and fresh cheese, its on top of my list of favorite pizza. Just fantastic can not wait to go back and try it again.
I placed an order through Uber Eats... Wow the quality in the food was amazing. And it arrived hot.... highly recommend the Penne Calabrese...
The only complaint, if I had to make one, is there was no bread to suck up the sauce.... It's a crime to waste...
Well done! Definitely will be re-odering again, and will dine in as well.

First time with a reference from an acquaintance.
Got Rose custom Spaghetti with veggie and Gnocchi with veggies . Tasted so good plus their homemade chilly sauce was amazing .
Small and not inviting but you wont regret !!
The Tucci family knows food. If you're looking for excellent home-cooked Italian cuisine, Il Porcellino is the place to be. Their dishes feature the freshest, highest-quality ingredients and taste like they came straight out of Nonna's (Italian grandmother's) kitchen. I will definitely be back!

I love the create-your-own option, it's the best. I went with pesto sauce and topped it with all sorts of delicious combinations. 🤤😋

You can definitely taste the love in the food served. Also as soon as you walk in, you are greeted with warmth and a welcoming smile. All the dishes were delicious. Calamari grilled to perfection. Probably the best we've ever tried. My husband said the cesar salad was on point. Pasta was perfect, the veal and chicken so fresh and delicious. Their tomato sauce ...wow...Do not leave without trying their homemade cheesecake. Incredible. Can't wait to go back. And make sure you reserve ahead of time. Like days in advance. There is a reason why they're busy.
Awesome food, great people. Reasonable pricing for the quality. Best ravioli I've ever had. Same with the chicken Caesar
Love this hidden gem! This family run restaurant is so welcoming, you feel like you're visiting family. The portions are big, the food is delicious. The ravioli was the best I've ever had. The homemade cheesecake and peach fantasy dessert was a memorable experience. Lots of love and passion is put into each dish. They use a lot of home grown ingredients in their dessert. I like supporting small businesses like this, highly recommend. I'll return.
We hosted my sister's bridal shower here this past weekend and we couldn't be happier. The entire family made sure that we had an enjoyable time. The food was amazing. The portions were huge. The hospitality was top notch. The room came together beautifully. Thank-you and I highly recommend for your next private event. We can't wait to host our next event here!

Solid 3* Quick and friendly service.
Food was okay. Reasonably priced and generous portions.
Pizza was good. Doesn’t compare to wood oven but overall it was tasty. Dough was a bit dense.
Fish and chips were good, not great.
Draught beer was very well priced!
Mario's catering menu is pretty vast and food quality is great. I have order their catering service since 2017. He has look after some of our family and friends events. Mario has accommodated menus from 10 ppl to 50 +ppl and consistency has always been there. Also, all his staff have always been friendly and respectful.

We decided to check out Two Guys From Italy for date night. We had a reservation and arrived a few minutes before (7:42pm). We were greeted and taken to our table right away. There were a few people at the bar and on the restaurant side there was a fairly large group (approx. 10people) and two other occupied tables (4 people).

Service
We were given a menu to review when we were seated and a server returned to take our drink order at 7:55pm. We decided to order our dinner and appetizers at once because we overheard a server saying that the kitchen was busy.
The server was friendly but clearly busy as she seemed flustered. She also constantly spoke over the drinks which was uncomfortable.
We ordered a glass of water and she didn't remember until we asked for the bill.

Drinks- Water, Sprite and a Vodka Cranberry
We ordered Bruschetta with Mozzarella and Classic Onion Rings and it arrived at 8:19pm
The onion rings were good 5/5 and the Bruschetta was also. The bread was soft and it was well seasoned. 4/5

We ordered: Shrimp Jumbo Cheese Ravioli
(With onion, mushroom, spinach in a Creole sauce) with AAA 10oz Steak on the side and
Penne A La Vodka
‍(sans bacon, bell peppers and onion in a vodka tomato cream sauce)

The food arrived at 8:44pm and was underwhelming.

After reading the other reviews, it's safe to say that we probably came when they were just having an off night. They were likely understaffed and couldn't attend to the large group and the rest of their patrons; but I don't think we'd recommend or return.

We landed here randomly and what a lovely surprise. Small staff place but great service . As we walk in we given a table right away,Our waiter was great and food came out so fresh and hot just like I like it. Bruschetta w/cheese was great at just 8.50! Most places charge way more and not half as good and pastas absolutely nothing bad to say. They give you a generous portion with plenty of sauce. The deserts are great cheesecake is smooth with option of fruit or chocolate. the tiramisu is airy and light but big portion. Just perfect desserts are about just 7 dollars but really great taste. I can’t believe the prices for the quality.
Overall great mom and pops place I would definitely be back
Bathrooms are clean In the basement.

I tried the large pepperoni pizza and enjoyed it much better than other outlets I have tried so far. It’s only a small space with seating for quick dine in. Dropped my mobile in a rush and they were nice enough to help keep safe till I retrieved it. I will be coming back next time.

Food and quality is always consistent. It is always ready with the time they give me when I call ahead with my order. My 2 teen boys love the Panzo’s and I especially like the Eggplant Parmesan Sandwich. The pizza is well made and very hearty, and they also use a very good quality mozzarella. There at least once a week and never disappointed

Decided to try this place now the veal was fantastic no complaints there very good price was good as well. But the pizza was a disappointment four slices and the cheese fell off and everything all it was was a medium cheese pizza. The stuff were nice very helpful but because of the sloppy pizza it only gets three stars

The food is really amazing, the chefs prepare really fast and it's always hot and tasty. We went to a lot of places in Streetsville but this has to be one of my husband's favorite places to go. The atmosphere the service the people are all just amazing. They make you feel like you're a part of a big family and not just coming into a restaurant. They really care about each and every customer to make sure everybody is well taken care off.
Thank you Two Guys From Italy.

Quality of the food was VERY good: appetizers, entrees and desert.
Service was also good, super nice and friendly staff.
I had dinner with my husband and another couple and asked everyone how many stars they would give and all answered 4 stars, but for different reasons.
Responses: seemed like the customers can’t have what they want if the owner/manager doesn’t “approve” of it.
Example 1: Asked for olive oil to eat with the bread, was told no because the bread already comes with butter, I still wanted the olive oil but didn’t get it.
Example 2: Asked for more bread to finish my plate and enjoy the rest of the red tomate sauce and couldn’t get it, just because they don’t give two baskets of bread per table. In 4 we had 1 basket. Charge clients for more bread, shouldn’t say no.
Example 3: Charging clients 18% to split checks doesn’t seem fair, charge at least how ever much the extra transaction would cost, but profit from splitting checks is not really fair.
Good experience overall.

We ordered a Butter Chicken and Tandoori Chicken XL Pizza with Onions, Capsicum and Coriander with a Butter Chicken Gravy Sauce Base.

It was tasty!

I would have liked slightly bigger toppings or more in quantity but it wasn't a cause of complain.

I wouldn't exactly call it a dine in place its best to take away your order to the nearest park.

An XL Pizza cost with 2 cans of pop cost me $28 with tax.

Overall a must try place!
I'll go there again for sure!

We were happy to support this small business because it's our favourite Italian restaurant. It's a small space and it's perfect for special occasions. The food is fantastic and they have a wide array of pasta and meat dishes as well as appetizers. We always get grilled calamari but I forgot to take a picture of it before we ate them. Just know that they're perfectly cooked and with balsamic vinegar they're delicious; which brings me to my point, all of the food I've eaten there is delicious. I would definitely recommend for a special occasion.
Menus on the website under the events page show one price but when you email to inquire further and the price increased by $20 ($57 to $80). In addition, the website said children under 9 were complimentary only to then be told children meals were actually $50. Don’t waste your time with the sketchy pricing and menus.

BAD!!! Chicken on the pizza was very dry and old (see the 3rd pic). The staff was terrible. Very rude and clearly looked like he hates his job (guy that works late shift). Would not come back ever again!
This place has the best ever veal sandwichs, there pizza is homemade and amazing ! There pasta dishes are to die for !! Love this place !! Eggplant parmesan is amazing !

Must try !
Very few places to eat deserve 5 stars these days, this place deserves 6!
How this place doesn’t have a lineup down the street is beyond me.
Found this gem through a coworker, went to eat on a Wednesday, went back Thursday and Friday. Will be going every day I’m in the area.
Blown away by the quality of food: best tasting, fresh from scratch.
Blown away by the quality of service: super polite and humble, no joke you feel like you’re Italian family eating at your grandparents house, they take care of you!
Blown away by the portions and prices: I’ll usually get two heaping meals, one to go, a bottle of water and a hand made cappuccino,
All that under $20.
I’ll be back and telling everyone I know.
Best caterer in the city! They listen to you and do exactly as you asked. They're excellent ... I come back again and again for any work functions we have.
Mario and his team have done a few functions for us fantastic profesional service from Mario and his team. Veals are out of this world and the BBQ he throws are top notch was great meeting this team highly recommend thanks MARIO......
Great food at a great Mario is an awesome guy would recommend it to everyone
From dining in to re-heating at home. Porcellino never disappoints!
Everything is fantastic, defiantly a destination spot you cannot miss.
Mario's is a real find. Their lunch special is a veal parmigiana or steak sandwich with salad and pop for about $8 - and the sandwich is the size of your head! Everything's really tasty, too.
