Amazing experience here, the food, the drinks, the customer service and attentiveness from the waitstaff is a breath of fresh air! Our server Brie was a complete sweetheart and took outstanding care of us, making sure that my food allergies (celiac disease) were taken care of and I didn’t have to worry about a thing! Absolutely would recommend to anyone looking for a cozy, fun, lively atmosphere with delicious food and a waitstaff who cares! Your food allergies are safe here, you won’t have to worry about a thing!
Delicious food, with gluten free options available. We sat on the heated patio with a group of 5. The service was great but after sitting there for a while it was cold if you weren't sitting under/right beside the heater. The flour less chocolate cake was very delightful and overall a nice place to have dinner with friends. PARKING WAS A HASTLE. We went around 7:15 and there was nowhere to park I drove around for 15 minutes before finding street parking that was a decent walk away.
My 7 yr. old is Celiac. Ordered her a gluten free desert option. Waiter serves her one not gluten free. Waiter messed up pizza toppings. Language barrier with the server. I speak English...sorry. Manager completely indifferent. Been to other locations'...no problems. Do urself a favor and stay away from Boston Pizza near Pearson Airport. Morons!!!!
The restaurant is involved with summerlicous and always wanted to try their menu out. It was for 4 adults on a weekday, early evening. Made reservations online at their restaurant or can call in.
The place is bigger than what you expect with two rooms. It was charming decor. The place was empty when we came in, being the first customers since the place opened at 5 pm.
We ordered off from the 2024 summerlicious menu, pictured included. Appetizers were the Mario Salad, arancini balls and carpaccio, mains were the rainbow trout fillet, penne a la Vodka, and Alla gamberi pasta with shrimp. Can sub Gluten free pasta for extra cost. Desserts were the key Lime tart, tiramisu, and angeli brownie. Drinks were also ordered on the side like wine and cocktails.
I will review what I ate - the carpaccio salad was absolutely delicious, fresh, and flavourful; pasta was creamy, right amount of saltiness and yummy, huge portion, I had to take it home for leftovers, and the brownie was quite chocolatey and rich, but the fruits helped cut the sweetness and richness. The whole menu for myself was mouthwatering.
My other friends also enjoyed the menu well and finished off their plates! The server we had came by often to check on us, and he was fun and pleasant. The bathrooms are downstairs and are individual rooms for everyone to use and I found it to be clean.
I would definitely recommend the restaurant especially for their summerlicous menus, worth the $45 price for what you get. I'd come back and try other items as well.
Service:
I booked a lunch here for a group of 40 for a team outing. The entire experience was amazing. Mike (the owner) was super accommodating. We took up all the tables inside of the restaurant and it was rather crowded for the staff to move around. Despite this, they ensured that all our starters and mains arrived around the same time for everyone. The kitchen staff did an exceptional job as well, you could tell it was well-organized.
We had sent in our orders ahead of time and requested they call out the names to prevent any mix-ups (Yes, adults can forget what they ordered a week in advance). Servers were so warm and friendly and as attentive as they could be given the circumstances. They even tried to remember names after going through learning 40 names and got pretty good by the time they needed to serve mains.
My friend asked for a box to combine leftovers of my charcuterie board with her pasta. Mike grabbed the plates, separated them into two separate boxes, bagged them and handed it back to her with a smile. When service cares more about how your leftovers are handled than you do, it's seriously next level service.
Food:
I had the charcuterie board, caprese salad and got to try a slice of Salsiccia Pizza. All three were good enough to be re-ordered. My friend had the arancini and Bucatini Amatriciana which they thoroughly enjoyed. One person accidentally ordered a gluten-free pizza, when it arrived, it was announced that it was gluten-free to their surprise. They said it was so good that they couldn't even tell it from a regular pizza which speaks miles. The pizzas were drool-worthy as they came out, most people regretted not ordering pizza. Overall, everyone enjoyed their food.
I would certainly head back in a heart-beat the next time I'm in the area.
Every slice of Milano's pizza feels like a trip to Italy. The authenticity of their thin crust, coupled with the fresh mozzarella and basil, is unmatched. It's the perfect spot for a date night or a casual meal with friends. Also, they have gluten-free option which is a huge plus for me
