Where it all started. Our first location on 720 Queen Street West opened in 1992. From a storefront selling imported Italian pantry staples with only a handful of seating to our most recent renovation and expansion celebrating our 30 years of Terroni, our first ever location got a much deserved face lift, elevating both the look and function of this neighbourhood favourite while still retaining its character of being warm and inviting.Despite its modern, updated new look, the original spirit of Terroni that kicked off three decades of authentic Italian experience lives here.

    Excellent service and delicious food. Our server Scotlynn( hopefully correct spelling) was very friendly and knew her stuff. Her wine suggestions were spot on. Coffee was outstanding. Very busy lunch spot and got noisy but I find most restaurants very noisy. Not economical but what is these days. Overall a wonderful lunch for the 4 of us.

    We happened to dine at Cibo’s King West in Toronto on a Tuesday evening, with 1/2 pizza promo! Great location, ambience, food, and OUTSTANDING service! For the 3 of us bill was $40 !!! Despite the small bill, we were well looked after even after we paid! My elderly mother, who doesn’t drink and can’t stand drinking cold water, was offered a welcoming cup of hot water, right when we came in!!! How did the waitress/ manager know that this is going to make her happy? This is what I call going ABOVE and BEYOND. To be fair, we all had pizzas, so any other day we would have paid double, still very reasonable. We will definitely be back, especially at King West location. I hope we get the same serving staff!

    I had an amazing experience last night at Bar Prima. I've been dying to go for the longest time, and it did not disappoint. Jarred took great care of us. In fact, the whole staff was super nice and very attentive. Iain runs a tight ship. The food was well executed, tasted amazing, and looked super sexy. The wine I had was a great find, but now I can't remember the grape. Of course, the decor and ambience is fire. It is perfectly lit and nicely spaced out compared to most cramped places today. We felt well taken care of and I can't wait to go back and my 2nd choices. Oh, and the agnolotti is a MUST. Thanks to everyone for a great night.
