Pulcinella (Toronto) Ristorante & Wine Bar (established 2010)

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.

Great experience! Service was wonderful and they have excellent gluten free options. Beautiful and friendly atmosphere, too!
