Goat cheese on Pizza was bad. Got very sick when I got home. Had bad gas the next day. I will never go back. I'm calling the health inspector.

i'd agree. the service (i think by the owner) was quite friendly. food wasn't particularly interesting, but it wasn't awful, either. and they've got a big stroller-friendly back area, which is why my wife and i wound up their with our 8-week-old. and hey, dipamo's was outta business and yitz's was closed...

The attraction of Ferraro's is the family friendly ambiance and the remarkable speed that the pre-cooked food arrives in. There are two decent dishes on the menu and both are mad by Grandma Ferraro. Infreqently there is a veal lasagna as a special that is really good and the homemade gnocchi is also quite good. I will eat nothing else there.

Last Saturday night, my wife and I were craving BBQ so we made our way down Eglington to try Dipamo's. however they have been closed by their landlord for non-payment of rent.

We were very disappointed as we walked back down the street. My wife stopped and looked into a very busy Italian restaurant named Ferraro. As we continued on our way, the host actually ran onto the street to tell us that they had a table for 2 for us. I thought that this was promising, someone who cares enough about their business to do such a thing. We were impressed with the rest of our experience too.

We were immediately seated and brought foccacia bread with oil and balsamic. Shared a $12 antipasto plate that was huge and full of fresh nibbles such as bocconcini cheese, proscuitto, caramelized onions, Sicilian olives, roasted peppers and so on. My wife ordered a $12 pasta special of papardelle with roasted portabellas, cream and 3 cheeses. I had a $17 veal parmigiana that was so large it just fit on a 12" platter, my excellent side of spaghetti marinara had to be served in a separate bowl. Both meals were delicious and very generous portions.

I highly recommend this traditional, neighborhood joint.

I also went to Dipamo's, also seeing it was closed and went to Ferraro instead and I am afraid that I have to disagree with you. It was my first time there, even though I knew it has been there for ages. I was thoroughly disappointed almost to the point of being disgusted that I was going to have to pay for the food. I could have had better ravioli from a can of Chef Boy-ar-dee and I HATE that stuff, so you can imagine how bad the food was at Ferraro.

Every time I have passed by there, it is always busy, but I can never figure out why, it certainly can't be the food.

this is one of the absolute best choices for an all around culinary experience. The food is consistantly good and the service is unreal. This is a great place to go on a first date, a family dinner or simply a night out with your buddies.
