Tosca is one of our favourite restaurants and we go there often. It is the place that we bring our out of town friends and family because we have yet to be disappointed with either the service or the food. The service is attentive but not obtrusive and the food is fresh and prepared with care. The wine selection is vast and is displayed along an entire wall of the restaurant. My husband often chooses their veal parmagiana which is always tender and flavourful and comes with a side of spaghetti bolognese which could easily serve two people. We often bring the pasta home and share it the following day. My favourite is their lasangna which is cooked to perfections and bathed in warm melted cheese and flavourful sauce. Our son prefers their meat dishes, while his girlfriend, a vegetarian always finds something to satisfy her needs. It has now become her favourite restaurant! Follow your meal with their signature cordial the strawberry grappa along with their decadent tiramisu you won't be disappointed. I would recommend this restaurant highly and have suggested to my colleagues at work that we should have our Christmas lunch at Tosca.

Upon entering, one begins appreciating the blending of wonderful aromas and warm hospitality. The menu offers a multitude of Italian dishes, and the server further entices with additional specials. Staff is very accommodating whether large or small group. Senses are challenged in appetizers and entrees well presented and plated, and taste buds are not disappointed with wonderful blends of sauces and pastas. Will definitely return.

Have eaten here many times, and plan on returning! Have been here with a large group (8-10 people) most of the time, and have had great success. They take reservations, which would recommend for a larger group. Prices are very affordable. Lunch and Dinner can be eaten here. The menu varies with a multitude of Italian dishes. The food is delicious. Have tried most of the items on the menu and wasn’t disappointed. Friendly staff, great atmosphere and modern look and feel. We would recommend this restaurant. Bon appetitto!

This restaurant serves an very good meal. The antipasto was excellent and the pasta and sauces were perfect. Only a little too much sauce on the veal ghamberetti but very tasty. The service started a little slow but then was fine and the staff were very friendly.
