The best place, the best autentic Italian food and the best service, I really recommend it, this place is amazing š
Excellent food, wine and service. Our group of 15 ate a la famiglia, and tasted just about everything on the menu, except for fish and seafood due to allergies. It was delicious, served piping hot, or room temp as appropriate, and totally fresh. Their private room is modern and gorgeous, with horizontally stacked wine bottles lining the walls. One side red. The other white. This doesn't however make for good acoustics, and we were a very chatty bunch. The food MORE than made up for this quibble. From the delicious bread, through awesome apps, pizza, pasta, salads, mains (short ribs highly recommended), to the dessert sampling of Italian pastries, I really loved it. Among the top group dinners of all time. And I've done a lot. This was my first time at Cibo and I'll def return.
Great place to have pizza or pasta, great selection of wine!
Just nearby all bars! great location for food and drinks after!
Best Sunday brunch in Toronto
The food at this restaurant is fantastic. But the service is even better. It is incomparable. From the minute you walk in to the minute you leave you are treated like kings and queens. . There is an omelet station ,a Pizza Station, you can have roast beef or pasta, there is a salad bar and fantastic desserts, Including a waffle bar.
In the summer there is a patio outside as well.
Had a lovely dinner here with a friend. The food was exquisite and well prepared while the ambience was stunning. The only drawback being the slow service of the waiting staff, however they were really sweet and did the most they could to serve us and make us comfortable and happy. All in all, a must eat place for anyone visiting the fashion district.
Weāve been to this restaurant before and it feels like theyāve improved on the quality of services, main courses and desserts. Itās a great venue for large groups to dine and socialize in the trendy Yorkville neighbourhood......................................
Whatever debate rages of whether the no-car King corridor has helped or hindered business, it is a non-issue at CIBO which has always been packed by local condo dwellers or people coming before/after their outing to the entertainment district. Delicious food, Fast & Courteous service, and Great wines such as the pictured Cannonau di Sardegna (a hugely popular Grenache). Recommend the place!
Went here for an office team lunch with about 15 people! This restaurant is huge and has beautiful ambiance...accommodating 15 to 17 people was very easy for them. However, they weren't able to keep up with such a large order. We had to wait for a long long time for our food to be served. We had about 1.5hours for lunch in between our workshop and we had to exceed that. So clearly, if you are in time crunch and are a big party, avoid this place!
On the contrary, if you're just up for some good food, good wine and a good time with someone and you don't have any time restrictions, this place is definitely worth a try. Everything that we ordered came in big portions and tasted fantastic. We all returned with happy tummies! You can totally rely on the servers suggestions as well because a few of them from my group went with the suggestions and it was really really good!
With its inviting ambience and buzzing atmosphere, this is a great āgo toā after work. The front desk does a good job of getting you seated quickly or being realistic about wait times.
The bar service as well as the cocktails can be hit and miss and luckily the long waits are literally cushioned by comfortable seating. Iād personally stick with wine given that it is a wine bar after all, and it seems to be the drink they do best.
The draw of āLobster Tuesdayā gave me my first taste of Ciboās menu. Table service was friendly and efficient and although I was inadvertently brought bread I didnāt order, it was very kindly left with me, on the house. The focaccia itself was delicious with perfect consistency and enticing flavours. The lobster itself was beautifully presented with a very inviting aroma. It was cooked & seasoned well on a somewhat sparse bed of asparagus (I didnāt see it initially and asked where it was, only to have the waitress embarrassingly point under the lobster). I chose to add an excellently suggested wine pairing which went down very nicely.
My only gripe would be the portion size. I am not a big eater and could have easily consumed two of these. When enquiring after a side of fries, I was told that the kitchen does not offer this as an option. This was disappointing despite being offered an alternative of roast potatoes. The well informed waitress did assure me that the other lobster options (risotto or pasta) were larger and more filling.
I would return here for wine and perhaps to sample more of their menu.
Lovely dining at Cibo! We enjoyed tasting over 15 menu items all were incredible. Polenta fries, beef carpaccio, shrimp diovola, gnocchi and braised short ribs were among my favorite !! Delicious. Likely the best gnocchi we have ever had
Dined at cibo many times .. the food is always tasty (my go to being the lobster ravioli or canneloni for main) but service is not as attentive and knowledgable about their own menu as seen at other establishments .. Each time i have been I find I am waiting quite some time ust to ask for water to be refilled or the bill
Octopus was tasty great flavour but a little over done. The dish (as seen in picture) is great for a light dinner (esp for those nights where club follows dinner)
Desserts on point .. as you can see we order just about all of them and share amongst the table the chocolate bonbon being my favourite (not sure of the actual name of dessert)
Top Notch!!! We had never been here before so
I was a bit worried when we booked the party room for our companyās 20th
anniversary.Ā Ā I was concerned about not
being able to order a-la-carte and never experienced the āfamily styleā serving
before.Ā Ā We ordered the SOCIAL menu 3, at $65 per
person.Ā It was worth every penny.Ā It was 14 courses, all of which were amazingĀ (CIBO SERVICE STYLE CHEF'S SELECTION OF
SIGNATURE PIZZAS, POLENTA FRIES, BEEF CARPACCIO, ARANCINI, SPIDUCCI, GRILLED
OCTOPUS, POLPETINNE, GNOCCHI, RAVIOLI, ORECCIETTE, VEAL MILANESE, POLLO
PARMIGIANA, SALMONE FRESCO ATLANTICO, SEASONAL VEGETABLES and CHEF'S SELCETION
DESSERT PLATTER).Ā The food was ample and
had something for everyone on the menu. Ā The
service was outstanding, the attention to detail they provided was
exceptional.Ā Ā I recommend this establishment for any private
function.Ā Ā The way the table is set allowed for
conversation, even across the table because the room was sectioned off from the
restaurant so you can hear everyone (ours was a table for 16). Ā We are already planning to have our company
Christmas party here.Ā You will not be disappointed.Ā Ā This
place is top notch.
I took my girlfriend here for our anniversary. Most of the dishes we enjoyed. The over all experience was quite good. Nothing wowed us immensely, so thatās why itās only 4/5, especially given the price. The service was also very good. The octopus dish was our favorite, with the little circular pasta that was kind of like orzo. It was very fun! We also enjoyed the preserved meats, especially the octopus which was very interesting and weāve never seen it anywhere else. Iām not sure itās worth the money, though, but perhaps worth it at least once just to try. We probably would not come again.
Itās located at end of hidden alley along King st. Their patio is small and cute but they have larger interior. The cocktails were overpriced but food was decent. Their service was very polite and helful and staff were friendly. Although we had overall positive experience there, we wouldnāt go back there since the price tag didnāt match the food and scale of the restaurant. They should revisit the menu and prices to attract more traffic there.
Food is delicious, especially recommend the eggplant and tiramisu. Props to Andrew, our bartender, for the great cocktails. Our server Tamara was super friendly and welcoming. I will definitely come back! :)
Went to Buca for V Day (Yes it took me almost a month to process how amazing the food was and write a review)
The burrata pizza our my fave dish of the night - funky truffle, punchy basil, creamy burrata SO GOOD
The prosciutto was delicious, funky, and thicc but man the pickled turnips on the side were the BEST - flavour bombs - we even had to ask for extra!
The ricciola (fish) was spicy and flavourful, and super fresh - INSANITY
The brussel sprouts were also soo goood - crispy with lots of parm and funkiness from the guanciale (aka upgraded bacon) WOW
The mains were just ok (super classic fancy restaurant things). The octopus was super meaty but I wanted more sauce and onions to go with it. The pasta was a little sad - undercooked and soaked in cold flavourless broth. The filling was good but definitely could have been better.
Dessert was amazing though. We had an almond blood orange cake with mascarpone that was AMAZING and HUGE. We took half home and it was still good the next day! The affogato was next level with chocolatey goodness gelato and crunchy biscotti - donāt skip dessert!!
Fantastic dinner. Staff were attentive. Food was delicious. Cocktails were unique. Couldnāt have asked for a better meal
Buca was delicious! We went on the May long weekend and Iām still telling people about how amazing the pizza and gelato was ! I would definitely go back here. The service was excellent as well. Lauren was our server. If youāre downtown and craving pizza, try to get a table at Buca and order the burrata truffle pizza ! Then finish it off with pistachio gelato. It is soooo good !
Really enjoyed everything on the menu. Great service friendly staff cool environment .
Alil hard to find at first but now I know where it is .
Thereās a nice vibe in the dining room for Freindās to hang out and have a nice meal. Thereās also a pretty cool private dining room that Iād like to try next time I get a chance to go there
