This place was absolutely awesome - and that would be an understatement. My family and I visited on probably one of the busiest days of the year - Valentine's Day. The experience was absolutely Legendary. Owner John is a culinary virtuouso. Food was plentiful, exquisite - and on time. Grilled calamari was to die for. Service was beyond Epic. Not sure how they do it - but we were visited by no less than five staff during our meal - including owner John. Felt like I was a real celebrity. Two days later, my family and I are debating as to whether this was perhaps our greatest culinary experience ever. If you are visting Toronto, this is a "must visit."
My fabulous lady friends and myself were there for dinner April 14th. Had such a great experience! Our server, Tate was amazing! He owner stopped by to say Hi and chat. The food was delicious, wine was yummy. We were the guests to leave (sorry...) but before leaving the owners treated us to a shot! Thanks for the great hospitality, good service and delicious food! We will be back!
Great place !
Yes, yes, yes the place is small but it is super compensated with great service and great attention to detail from all the team. Been there many times and is always a great experience !
My friend and I came here a few weeks ago for his birthday. This was our first time coming here as we were visiting Toronto. I loved the atmosphere of this place and the staff were very friendly and attentive! The food was delicious and I really enjoyed the sangria too. I would love to come back sometime.
A nice and cosy place. pastas were just perfect . Tiramusu cake was delicious. The staff were friendly too..Also, it was child friendly. I would come back again .
So happy that we found Kit Kat while visiting and touring Toronto! Sweet restaurant! Great staff.. so friendly and attentive! Owners were so welcoming! Food was delicious! Stop by for a great meal! Buon Apetito!! Ciao!
I can’t say enough great things about Kit Kat. The atmosphere is fantastic- cozy, quirky, and such a unique feel that is totally lost in chain restaurants. The living tree (touch it for good luck) that grows through the roof of the building is just on of the touches that makes dining at Kit Kat a special experience.
We ordered two appetizers, a main each, and a dessert each. All dishes were superb, tasting fresh and flavourful. Jackie, our waitress, was phenomenal. She was fast, efficient, and extremely professional ( not to mention personable). I strongly recommend Kit Kat as your go to downtown Toronto Italian restaurant. And don’t forget to try the crème brulée- yum!
The food was great. Service was amazing. You gotta eat here if you are looking for Italian food. I would not go anywhere else for high quality Italian food.
Great food, prices and service! I love this place and so do my Colleagues. I went on this app for the first time and saw some bad reviews which makes no sense. Some people are always looking for something to complain about. This is not a Michellin Restaurant folks so if you're looking for good Italian food at a reasonable price for a downtown location you will be satisfied. The owners are Italian and care about their customers without doubt.

I went here before a play down the street. I made reservations . We missed our GO train from Hamilton but when I called they said they would try to fit us in at the later time.
Atmosphere- A really cute kitchy tiny location. Lots of tables, so many tables, too many tables. There is even a table in a narrow hallway along the bar - All filled when we arrived plus people waiting at the bar ( It was a Wednesday night!) We were asked to share a booth with another couple or we would not get to play in time. I had been there numerous times and it was totally worth it.
Food- This lace has ever disappointed me. They had 8 specials tonight. I picked the penne with smoked chicken, red peppers in a creamy rose sauce. Perrrrfect ( KitKat) The woman sharing our space said if she wasn't in public she would lick the bowl - It was that good. I had to agree with that. The others at the table had the penne in red sauce and spicy sausage, That diner said she always gets that particular dish because it is so good she craves it. The vegetarian dish of the evening was a ricotta spinach ravioli with red peppers and peas in rose. I tried one and it was so creamy and scrumptious. My next choice when i go back if it is the special. I also had the Caesar salad which came surprisingly without bacon or croutons. ( came with a small toast The sauce and shaved parmigiana did not need the bacon.
Service- This is where this place does not get my full marks. The young boy try as he might did not quite get it, He knew only half the specials and our requests for salad to come with meal ( time restricted) and separate billing were both missed as was the water that had to be requested. I know it was busy, but this place is always busy.
Impression- I will be back again. there is not doubt about that. I will catch an earlier train and request not to get the hall seat next time.
Great place and great food. Very homey and staff treat you like family. Going back tomorrow night again. Great selection of wines and other spirits.
Excellent service, very accommodating for our party of 9 very hungry and thirsty people. Almost everyone ordered seafood pasta special. All very fresh even in the middle of January. Excellent ambiance and would highly recommend as a date night local especially if you are taking in a show!!

The food here is fantastic! This Italian rustic place is an amazing experience for all your senses. The decor is beautiful and homely. It's like your in little Italy. The waiting staff is very pleasant and friendly. Everything we ate was so flavourful and brightly presented. We enjoyed ourselves a lot. We will definitely come back here again.
Small and cozy bar/restaurant. The food was delicious, never had calamari that looked they way they did theirs. Wasn't too expensive. Good service, we were sitting by the front door so it was a bit chilly
A nice place to go after a show! :) Great atmosphere, ambience , waiters and cooks alike. It's a small restaurant, I suggest you make reservations and try their specials. We had a seafood pasta and a regular spaghetti and meat sauce and I totally wanted seconds if my stomach would have handled it. Great local place to eat!
Walk past the kitchen as you head to seating in the back and pass a real tree inside when heading downstairs (to the bathrooms).
Overall an interesting atmosphere and the food was good! I had the Atlantic char, wife had the chicken parm. The only piece of critique was the fake Parmesan cheese in the shaker. Can’t have good food with that stuff, get some real Parmigiano-Reggiano!
Extremely busy little restaurant, but if you make a reservation it is well worth the short wait.
These guys know there business and surprisingly remember faces even if you only visit every so often. Which makes you feel like a VIP.
The resturant had a cozy atmosphere that allowed you to carry on conversations at your table without having to scream at the person sitting across from you.
The service was exceptionally great, the food even better and the wine list, yet not overly extensive paired well with the food being served.
Celebrating daughter's birthday on Sunday and had a wonderful time. The staff is amazing and made her day very special. The food is delicious and flavorful and the service impeccable. The magnificent tree inside the restaurant is truly a spectacular site. Definitely would go back to try the other dishes.
