Celebrated our 3rd year anniversary this evening and had an exceptional time. The food was some of the best Italian food I've ever tried in Toronto. We had the Ceasar salad and Calamari Fritti to start, Margherita pizza main, and Panna Cotta for dessert. Our host was gracious and we were attended by the owner Giancarlo. Service was good and the attention to our needs was on point. Bravo!
I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great Italian restaurant in the city. Looking forward to making this my go-to weekly lunch spot and frequenting it monthly for romantic dinners! A++
I am from out of town visiting family and some of us were looking for a nice patio in the east end and found this on the corner with convenient parking just around the corner. I was just there about an hour ago and tried their signature pizza, Ponte 21 and it was delicious! Service was stellar and I highly recommend this place to anyone! Xx

Great ambience. The view of the Riverdale bridge is beautiful lit up at night.
Delicious gnocchi with guanciale, excellent espresso and the complimentary limoncello at the end was a great finale!
My compliments to Giovanni. Excellent service !! He should be commended as well as the owner's daughter.
Will definitely recommend your restaurant.

Celebrated our daughters Sweet 16 Birthday and enjoyed every minute of it. The ambiance, the food, and the staff. We will definitely be going back! Thank you Il Ponte for such a memorable night.
This place is a beautiful place to be with delicious food and amazing staff. Wonderful place to go with friends or your date
Amazing food and staff! Very friendly and knowledgable about the menu! Authentic Italian!
Great food, attentive service, and half-price wine by the bottle on Tuesdays!

Had an absolutely delicious dinner at this new find (for us). Great atmosphere. Amazing friendly service and a delicious meal. A+++
I have been to Il Ponte many times, and I have NEVER been disappointed! Amazing food, amazing service, and an overall amazing restaurant!
Great food and ambiance. Our "go to" spot for a night out.
Fabulous all the way through. Service, food and atmosphere. A Toronto Gem!
First- Amazing Food! BUT the real reason a lot of people visit is the owner Giancarlo. He just 'gets it'.Super cool and friendly guy. He always welcomes you- finds time to talk- He also knows his wine :). Once you become a regular (as my family is) He treats you like family. His daughter who works there is also amazing- super friendly and my little one always wants to hug her :) IF you live in the area and haven't been there, you are missing out on a gem of a spot!
The Tuscna soup and Pasta with wild boar rage was exceptional! Great service and environment too! Really glad we came!
I had my sister's bridal shower here and it was perfect! Food was amazing and service was great!
I'm becoming a regular at this fine Riverside Italian ristorante. Can't say enough about the food. If you want authentic Italian cuisine made with loving care by the loving hands of host Giancarlo and his team, in a beautiful setting, look no further. Had the wild boar penne last night, and my taste buds are still dancing today. And the half-price wine Tuesdays is a wonderful invention. Kudos to the whole team!
This is really good Italian food! Excellent pizza and pasta in a beautiful restaurant. The patio is perfect to sit and have wine with friends. Highly recommend!
Amazing patio with a street side view, great for kids! We brought our almost 2 year old and they were very accommodating. Pizza was fantastic, barely had any leftovers left. Highly recommend, especially if you're strolling through Corktown.
Amazing restaurant! Everything we had was delicious. So many great choices, it was hard to pick, but we had the octopus, the branzino and the short rib ravioli and I highly recommend all of it! Service was excellent. Our server was very accommodating, patient, knowledgeable and super helpful with menu questions. By the time I remembered to take pictures the food was half eaten, so I took some of the dessert which was also delicious! Oh and wine bottles were half price!
Also worth noting, their patio is heated and well adapted to current situation and up to code, and they take strict precautions to prevent the spread, which I always check before going anywhere.
Delicious! We tried items from all parts of the menu and it was fresh and delicious. We enjoyed a variety of plates family style so we could share. The chickpea flour calamari was perfect. The veal, beef and red snapper were perfect. I highly recommend il Ponte. We’ve been driving by for a while and so glad we finally went in. Will be going back.
Accomodating and attentive staff. My friend and I were late for our reservation but the Chef was able to provide us a table in the patio. Although we were the only young guests, the staff did not make us feel less important and appreciated. Tasty weekend specials!
My daughters shared the margarita pizza and I had a glass of Pinot Grigio, caeser salad and the pesto gnocchi. All of it was delicious. The atmosphere is super fun with trendy and unique decor.
