Love the ambiance! The menu has an inclusiveness that makes everything easy... soup or salad , coffee and ice cream all in when you order a main. If you have not been... you must go!!!
Great devote and it has a variety of food. Weekday lunch service is slow. Always count on an hour and a half. Delicious garlic butter at the table. Regular butter is available upon request.
GREAT late dinner last night, food was AMAZING! But service was a tad lacking(especially since it was pretty empty), and the live music from bicycle club was competing w the music in the restaurant .
It's like walking into "olde time" Toronto here. As one of the few places you can say you went to as a kid and now can bring your kids, it's a great kitschy restaurants w trains , memorabilia & more.
So many gorgeous artifacts . My girls loved the carousel! Great staff , great food, great ambiance.
The complimentary bread and garlic butter was my favorite!! Great ambience and quick service too!
chicken parmigiana was delicious. The chicken tasted like it was freshly cooked and not from a freezer. I had the new York cheese cake.Atmosphere is 8.5. Greeter was very funny. Overall I'd give an 8
Great for family dine out. Fun atmosphere and servers are nice. Food is ok-just like any other fam dinning places
The Spaghetti Arrabiatta with Italian Sausage is great. The ambience is loud during dinner rush, but it's accessible and good for families with kids.
Decent portions and decent price. Food is good. But the place by itself is awesome. It really is worth taking a camera with you
It's good for meet with your friends but pasta prices very expensive and my opinion that's not delicious than yours homemade pasta but at least once time you should go for see ambiance.
We come back here every year for our Anniversary. Everything has always been fantastic!
When I went here for lunch on Friday July 1, 2011 with my friend, we were treated to excellent service from our server. The food there was great as well but the food is a little pricy though.
The meat lover flat bread and meat sauce spaghetti are amazing ! Also look for Sabrina, the friendliest server ever !
A great deal! A 3 course meal is affordable and delicious. I've never had a bad experience.
Kids love this place! Don't miss it whole in town . Come early evening to avoid wait time!
For big parties, expect a 10-15 seating wait. Water is usually served prior to ordering & there's a semi wide selection of drinks. I recommend ordering the meals with chicken , very moist and tender!
Spicey Spaghetti Meat Sauce is awesome, just for whatever reason, took an hour after ordering.
If you like pasta this is the place to be. You don’t walk out hungry you walk out saying I’ll be back.
Super eclectic atmosphere and delicious homemade pasta .
Honestly a modest quiet place to go out on a date and talk. Little gem of Toronto in my books .
Food is great here. It gets very busy, I recommend you make a reservation before going.
Price is right. Ambience great! Awesome menu! Great service!
A landmark in Toronto! Hard to find service and food like this in Toronto anymore. There is always something new to discover with their decorations
If the wait is long, go into the Amsterdam bicycle factory and you can get all the same food.
Design fairytale and good prices
Mizithra and brown butter pasta . Oh, so, good,!
Try the spaghetti . It's delicious. Oh, and merrily eat the bread .
The penne with chicken is to die for, and also love that 3 courses are included in the price.
Love this place. Good food, friendly staff , and great environment. It's just cool!
Its kind of cheaper and most of the food its delicious

Spaghetti is not great. I like this place because of the merry go round.

Daily drink specials
I've been here before and it really sucks. The same old, however this time I was given a bonus in my salad : a long hair. Husband's meal was wrong & we waited 45 min for this substandard, bland food.
Excellent service ! Super speedy and very polite!

Perfect! Great service:)
We have been going to Cafe Diplomatico for years and it’s always good and there is something for everyone in the menu. Service is good and moderately cheap! I like their Rose Sauce Pasta. - Cansin S
The food itself (pizza, fish) was just ok, but the rooftop patio is great. There is actually a private rooftop patio for 2, which is beyond awesome. Ask for it! Great date spot. Great service too. - Ian Leung
Tried the Pizza Cosi and pastas but the San Giorgio Pizza and the Calamari alla Griglia is the best. - Karen Ha
Excellent venue. Lovely old building steeped in history, too. (Postal building). - Michael Holdsworth
Attended the Toronto Life 2016 Best Restaurants event. It was pretty cool, lots of food to sample and local beers/wines/mixed drinks. I highly recommend this annual event. - MAV V
Great beer selection, but if you like it quiet, come on a Sunday night. They open till late too. - Shurraj Rao
