    Food is wonderful and the restaurant is great. Service was great at first. We had a table for 4. we are order appetizers and Pasta and were quite full. When we ask for a second bottle of wine, the server said: Have you ordered your mains yet? And we said " we are done with food thanks. And she rolled her eyes and walked away from us. And then moments later another server came to the table and told us we had to leave within 30 minutes as the table was sold..... Aside from that... That food was delicious and the ambiance was a 10/10.

    Not the best not the worst margarita pizza I have ever eaten. I find the service pretty slow. We had to wait 10+ minutes to request for a bill. A lot better options around Little Italy.

    Trattoria Taverniti was a comfortable restaurant with helpful staff, but in our experience, the quality of the food and service did not match the price tags on the menu.

    The ambience was amazing, food was delicious, and if only the restaurant was a bit bigger, it would've been truly outstanding. Other than that, loved it and would definitely come again to try more of the items on the menu.

    We were looking for an authentic Italian restaurant to celebrate my daughter's birthday. We felt the restaurant was worth the drive from Guelph, it wasn't. My husband and I had the veal parmigiana and the veal was a bit on the tough side. We ordered a pizza to try and I can't say it was anything to rave about. We will not be returning in the future.

    Food was excellent! Service was good - although server was very personable and friendly, could have been a little more attentive or in tune with table management to raise the rating. Other servers stepped in at times to support clearing of table dishes once finished with “appies” and “mains”. Boothes a tad small for seating 4 grown adults so be prepared, but able to manage for the most part.

    We were looking for a place to meet a friend we hadn’t seen in 5 years for dinner and so glad we found this resturant!! The service was lovely, the food was like back in Italy! And the atmosphere was perfect for 3 friends to reconnect yet not so quiet that we felt awkward! We travelled 2 hours in o get there and would do it again!! Thanks for a lovely evening!

    Kitchen staff was blasting Bollywood music which was very annoying as it was playing side by side with the restaurant music. Gave off a very unprofessional approach. Food was bland asides from the pizza which was passable

    The visit was overall good and the food as well even though we remembered it a bit better than it was three years ago. We were a bit disappointed about the table we got. Seemed like we got the worst table in the restaurant even though we made a reservation a week prior to the visit and didn't just walk in.

    The waitress ignored our table the entire evening. She gave us attitude when we walked up to ask for menus and water. I took my friend here for a birthday and this left us with a sour taste. I dine at the restaurant often but I will never come back due to the experience.
