Review Castello Ristorante Antico - Woodbridge

Amazing food and service. The quantities were amazing and the prices were average. Their cocktail drinks were hit or miss but overall the food, apps and mains, were great.

I just hosted my engagement party here and Castello ristorante went above and beyond to make everything perfect. Rudina, our head waitress and Kevin the manager were always available for whatever we needed. The food was very authentic Italian and the gnocchi in particular was delicious. Thank you Castello Ristorante for helping us host such a wonderful party!!

If you are looking to host an intimate or grand event. STOP looking. This place has EVERYTHING and more. First off, they welcome you like family. The level of service they provide is above and beyond - I am not kidding. Kevin, one of the floor managers that looked after us, was like a dear friend. Working with him was a real pleasure. Then, the owner, Patricia, graced us with her presence -- personally wanting to see my family and I were enjoying ourselves. Second, the food was INCREDIBLE! Like, oh my. In fact, one our guests just told us that she is now going to be planning an event with them soon. My husband and I will be going back again for an intimate dinner as well. Lastly, the ambiance. When you walk in --it almost feels like everything inside is just glowing. There is a sense of romance in the air. Chandeliers, candles, high quality white linen --just beautiful. What made it so easy for me to plan my event, which was my in-laws 50th Wedding Anniversary dinner, they also had a décor centre where you are able to rent things including flower arrangements and balloons. So glad my mother-in-law suggested this place. She found this place through a friend who also had a party there. Now, one of our guests want to host a party there. So, check them out. You and your guests will have a great time!! The videos I have attached will show you how our table was set. This was on their second floor balcony (VIP section). We had the place all to ourselves. You can host up to 50 guests here I believe. We were only 18 family members last night. Had the entire space to ourselves. Thank you Patricia, Kevin and all our beautiful servers who helped to make our event very memorable in every way.

I'm a pretty easy guy to please but this restaurant just flopped on all aspects. We came as a large party (14 people) the other week and nobody left happy. Service was so incredibly slow, it took an hour in between each serving of our initial drinks, then antipasto, and entrees. Nearly 3 hours for a fairly simple dinner is flat out ridiculous. We all agreed to not stay for dessert and get out of there as soon as we could. The place is loud, really loud. One of our older members ended up with a pounding headache and had to periodically go outside to take a break from the noise. The food itself is nothing to write home about. Antipasto was good, not amazing. The entrees were all over the place. One pizza was undercooked and still had raw flour, another was burnt and super crispy. An order of risotto was basically just rice, not creamy, not cheesey, just rice. Steaks were way to salty, pasta was just meh. I had the ossobuco, which was cooked well and tender, but was so bland. At around $100 a head plus an automatic 18% tip for mediocre service and food just isn't worth it at all.

I've been here multiple times, have always loved the food and the service. I believe it is in my top 3 with places to eat (food wise) because the food here is delicious! The service is solid but nothing really ever stands out to me about service when dining. However, out of all the times I've dined, the server named Nayab was the one that exceeded all expectations. It started off with her enthusiasm and care for us to receive our best experience dining. It continued with her great conversation every time she would come back to our table. Although it was really busy, she never seemed to be in a rush to cater to our table and still managed to periodically check up on us. It was by far my favourite experience there and looking forward to coming back again!

Alessia was our server tonight 03/18/2022 she was great quick easy service ...just me and the wifey...you get what pay for ...definitely worth it and definitely will be back 👍 pictured is the salmon and the gnocchi which I requested to have a la vodka and was done right ✅️

I just had my bridal shower here this weekend and I had an excellent experience with Castello. The venue is lovely, but more importantly, the food and service was great! In particular I want to acknowledge Kevin and Rodina’s excellent care and attention - they were both so kind and helpful and made sure my guests had everything they needed. I’m very happy with Castello and would definitely come back for dinner and more parties!

This restaurant was not equipped to handle multiple parties. My party arrived at 6:15 for our 6:30 reservation. We got our main courses at 9pm exactly. 6:15 to 9:00!!! And we finished our meals in 20 minutes, desperate to get out of there. We also had to go through the annoying process of 'preordering' our appetizers, which didn't make a single difference since they arrived after 7pm. Don't we do that so we can start eating faster? And leave the restaurant sooner? Clearly not at this place. The noise level was atrocious and unrelenting, there was no sound proofing done in this place whatsoever. The chairs were uncomfortable (and we had to sit for almost 3 hours), and there was nowhere to hang our coats. The appetizers were good (when they finally arrived). The steak was not worth the money. The risotto was not cooked to risotto, and was instead just rice. The bread (that we finally got after sitting for 30 minutes) was burnt at the top, but also cold? I would not recommend this restaurant.
