Great food and service. My wife, son and I ordered the polpo & calamari fritti and a salad as appetizers, short rib, ahi tuna, and rigatoni alla brasata for entrees, and a couple of desserts and wine. We all were pleased with our selections. Service was very good.

Great, innovative cocktail program; delicious food; excellent, friendly service; and beautiful, reasonably-priced wine list. Through all its iterations, Toscana has remained one of the most consistently excellent restaurant options in Delaware.

Disappointing experience at a favorite and usually reliable restaurant. Entrees arrived dried out and the side was overcooked and mushy. We'll go back, but warily.

This was our first time visiting but it won't be the last. There are definitely some interesting offerings on the menu. We went with one of the hostess' recommendations and tried the grilled octopus appetizer. It was delicious and took me back to Rome where I last had grilled octopus. Highly recommend!

Toscana is one of our favorite restaurants The service and ambience are great. The food is consistently fresh, creative, and flavorful. I am taking off 1 star because on this last meal both main dishes were too salty. The two mains were the ravioli al funghi and the frutti di mare in padella. In both cases, amazing textures and flavors, but almost drowned out by the salt volume.

Innovative offerings, the menu’s different every visit, combined with warm and personable service make this restaurant a regular on our rotation. Great value matched by generous portions invite multiple visits. Haven’t tried the pizza yet, the main offerings are way too tempting but we will soon. Highly recommend you visit and enjoy!
