We have been to Gabriel a few times now and kids
love this place. So when the birthday meal came up, this place was selected.
Never been for lunch/brunch at GP. There were some breakfast options available but we selected the lunch menu. The all time favourite Mediterranean Agnolotti, Pizza and Pasta (Fettuccine Alfredo), Vegetarian Wrap and a new dish that we hadn't tried a Spaghetti Al Forno but with no meat sauce; baked with cheese.
The Agnolotti is just as amazing we have always had. The pizza and pasta is again the same and both get 5/5. The Spaghetti Al Forno was just the perfect pasta dish we have tried. The sauce rich and perfectly seasoned. The pasta cooked perfectly and the cheese on top was a cherry on top. The Wrap was good as well, however I wish that there are some protein choices or some non dairy choices on pizzas.
The location is good and we were lucky that the day was good and even though seated inside all the doors and windows were open. Limited parking nearby but that is expected on Bank Street downtown.
All of us (from the prairies, four of us) were impressed with Gabriel Pizza and will be ordering pizza from them for now on.
The cheese ratio was good. They used actual small pepperonies. They do not skimp on toppings - the buffalo chicken is divine! The crust is the best part - right thickness, taste, and texture. For a chain they're bang on!
Consistently Great Service. The pizzas are delicious but what I really want to comment on is the service.
This restaurant is in the core of commercial Centretown, I know it's "colourful" and we've got our share of "characters" (anyone else have any more euphemisms for crazy?). So I'm always amazed to see how nice and friendly the staff is, no matter your state of dress, inebriation, or sanity. Not only are they friendly, they are also very competent. Believe it or not that is a truly hard combo to find.
