Giulietta
Reservations for our Main Bar can be made by calling us directly.
Chef Rob Rossi & David Minicucci, of Toronto favourite L'Unità, have collaborated to bring a genuine neighbourhood restaurant to Dufferin Grove.
Designed by acclaimed architect Guido Costantino Projects, a beguiling interior sets the stage for a convivial family-style dining experience that honours traditional Italian fare while showcasing stand-out ingredients.
Original brick and beam frame this warm, welcoming space where no detail is left unconsidered. Copper, Italian wool & red oxidized steel accents interplay with blonde wood and terrazzo, creating a rich, textured environment as enticing as Chef Rossi’s menu offerings.
We dined for Valentines, an extremely busy night of the year - the staff was friendly but you could tell they were hurried - the ambiance is really cool - with a bar in the middle of the resto. Short menu, with amazing options to choose from. You can tell their recipes are very well designed for maximum flavour experience. Our apps and salads were great. Fave dish was the pappardelle with braised oxtail. Gnocchi were homemade and well done. They tried their best to accommodate my dietary intolerance considering it was a very busy night and they did a decent job.
Great food and very high level of service made for an excellent evening
Amazing!!!! Such good food and customer service was best I’ve seen so far, highly recommend this place :)
I LOVED this place. Great design. Fantastic service.
Disappointed that their menu changes so much.
I was there in January and the agnolotti was delicious but they did not have the burrata anymore. This time the agnolotti was replaced by gnocchi which was very subpar.
Octopus was pretty but tasteless
Pasta was cold
Lemon bar was same as a bakery
The service was great and the food was absolutely delicious - highly recommend!
Amazing. We sat at the chef’s bar (not sure if that’s what they call it) and thoroughly enjoyed watching all the attention and care that goes into the preparation of every dish. The food was all exquisite and the service was honestly some of the best I’ve ever experienced.
Guiletta was a pleasant expierience!
We enjoyed the different selections on the menu.
The pulpo tasted so good. The ragou was delightful. The swordfish was rather small but perfect in taste. Tasteful cauliflower side. We really recommend the tarta della nonna as a desert!
Great service, solid food. Octopus and sausage wrapped olives were standouts.
Overall very happy with the menu options, food was delicious! The waitstaff went above and beyond. Items that need serious addressing - curtain around the doorway to keep the front seating area warmer, a larger area for walk ins to wait for a table. Not enough space by the bar as servers have to access the front dining area. The lineup of walk in patrons at the door makes for a fish bowl experience in the front dining room, better eat up and get out. Looks as though only VIPs and guests that complain enough get to dine in the back room. Drake like rap could be changed to something more unique that you might hear in a top ranked NYC eatery. Environment contributes to the dining experience and this is the only thing this restaurant has cared to disregard.
Meal and service were spectacular.
We had a very pleasant evening.The food was nice and the service was excellent .
Wonderful meal. Love the service and attention to detail of our server, especially in terms of recommendations and planning when the food was served. Would definitely recommend!
The Food is Fabulous - I have been twice - and both times, everything was fabulous. The music is a bit too loud .... but other than that Wonderful. Service is outstanding. thank you!!
Food was overhyped and under seasoned
despite making a reservation one month in advance, and arriving on time, my party and i still waited more than twenty minutes for a table. staff was completely unfazed and unapologetic (so we made sure that we were the last ones to leave)
RE: value - $15 for a small bibb lettuce salad is not going to bring me back anytime soon
otherwise, food was good. cocktails were great. would come back, but after trying out other restaurants first.
Giulietta somehow hits perfection every time. Service, food and cocktails
Outstanding because of an attention to detail few deluver
Even with reservation we had to wait, but food and service was good.
Would absolutely recommend to others and we will definitely be back. Food was exceptional and service was excellent. All staff were very friendly and welcoming. Good wine list. Reasonable prices considering the high quality provided.
Beautiful place and excellent service overall, but for the price point I expected more from the food. It was very tasty, just didn’t blow me away. Two exceptions were an outstanding fennel salad and the best Tiramisu I’ve ever eaten. Also our server, while well-intentioned, was just too much. His tendency to be as conspicuous as possible was pretty distracting, and eventually started to annoy us.
Absolutely incredible. The food and service are terrific. I can’t say enough about this restaurant. Sit at the chef bar for great dinner and a show. The chefs are awesome to talk to and prepare such amazing dishes.
Impeccable. Excellent and attentive service. Knowledgeable sommelier and staff. Food was outstanding.
The Food, Service and Atmosphere were AMAZING !!!!
We have been to the restaurant twice. Our first experience was amazing!! Loved it so much and couldn’t wait to return. While the food is delicious and service is great, it was rather disappointing that there were extremely few gluten free options. One of the people in our group is celiac and our server didn’t seem to make any efforts to see about what could be done to expand her choices beyond hen or vegetables. For a first class restaurant in 2019, this struck us as quite unusual and we were disappointed. Would love to return but would be great if there could be some effort of accommodation and interest for those who may have some food limitations.
Thanks
Beautiful design-minded dining room, friendly and very thoughtful service, delicious simple ingredient menu and wine ! Really feels special and like a nice ‘treat yourself’ night out.
Difficult to read menu. Every table around us turned the cell phone light on to read the menu.
Other than that, all was great!
Food was fantastic, service was great, and the space was perfect for any occasion
Amazing food and great service! Try to sit at chefs bar if possible!
Absolutely loved the food. Starters were excellent, main dish is amazing. Fairly pricy, but worth every cent if dining at a fine Italian restaurant. Glad to see Vincent and Matthew on the chef's rail. All of the staff showed that they cared for the customers and asked if everything is alright. Definitely would go back there again soon!
Quality dishes/cocktails, made with love. Great Service.
I managed to snag a seat for new years eve with my husband, just a few days before. They only had the nye set menu available that night. We really enjoyed all the dishes, but highlight of the night was the pasta and dessert. One thing I didn't like was the misled information on the set menu which was mentioned on their website. It was stated to have fire-roasted chestnut, but nothing came when the bill came. I had to ask the waiter, he only said it was available during the day at the bar. Other then that false information, we did enjoyed our evening.
Our meal service was too quick !!! We sat at 8:15 and by 9:30 the staff rushed to get us out and was bringing the machine to us to pay for the bill. You shouldn’t rush patrons out if they have reservations, otherwise would have given 5 stars
I've been to Giulietta a few times and it never fails to surpass my expectations. My last visit, I got a seat at the chef's bar so I was able to watch the staff in their element as I was enjoying my meal. The food, although spectacular (seriously they knocked it out of the park with this menu), was not even the best part of my visit. The staff is so friendly and they really add another level to the whole dining experience. Overall, amazing restaurant, amazing chefs, amazing service. This is definitely my go-to for a nice date night.
Amazing food, staff and experience. If visiting with a smaller group, would highly suggest sitting at the chef table (a counter seating area facing the kitchen).
Amazing experience. Every time. Love giulietta
Solid restaurant. Food was delicious. The kitchen staff were a lot of fun. My only warning is they charge for bread but don’t tell you and our waitress was stuck up
Really good service, pretty intimate atmosphere and yummy food.
Always an amazing dinner at Giulietta. This is by far the top restaurant in Toronto right now! Just awesome. Great food great wine selection.
