I’ve been here three times and it never disappoints! Great value for a hearty, tasty dish. Fettuccine Alfredo with chicken is the best dish in my opinion. This time we also tried steak sandwich and we wanted it cooked medium and it was perfect.

My friend and I visited this restaurant today and it was hands down one of the best experiences we have ever had at an Italian place. From the moment we walked through the door, the host was kind and welcoming. He sat us outside upon our request and regularly checked in on us. Afterwards, another very kind hostess took over and cared for us throughout our meal. She was attentive and friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. Then the food. The food! The food was exceptional! I’ve had a lot of Italian food over the years and this spot had some of the best I’ve ever tasted. We ordered the Margarita Pizza and the Seafood Pescatore. Both were delicious, but the pizza definitely stood out. If you’re looking for an Italian place with homey vibes, great service, and amazing food — this is the place to go!

One of the best Italian restaurants in Toronto, i ordered large Margarita for me and mom. It was so yummy and big with a good price, the place is cozy and cool. Can’t wait to come back with my friends to try different plates!

They offer super tasty pizzas with a very good topping combinations 🍕 you can also get pizzas with your own three toppings of choice for a cheaper price. We ordered takeouts but the place has a cozy and cool style and the staff are very friendly and welcoming 😊

My boyfriend and I recently visited Bellissimo Pizzeria & Ristorante for the first time, and our experience was a mix of highs and lows. We started with the garlic bread as our appetizer. It was standard—crispy on the edges, soft in the middle, and sufficiently garlicky. While it didn’t stand out, it also didn’t disappoint. It’s exactly what you’d expect from a classic garlic bread, and it served as a decent start to our meal. For the main course, I opted for the ravioli. The dish was good but left me wanting more, both in terms of portion size and flavour. The ravioli was well-cooked, with a pleasant texture, but the filling and sauce were fairly ordinary. There was nothing that made it particularly memorable or unique. My boyfriend chose the veal parmigiana, which also fell into the "just alright" category. The veal itself was cooked properly, but the overall dish was quite plain. The sauce lacked the rich, robust flavour that we were hoping for, and it didn’t have any standout elements. It was a bit of a letdown, especially considering that veal parmigiana is usually a highlight in Italian cuisine. For dessert, we decided to share a tiramisu. This was a redeeming part of our meal. The tiramisu had the right balance of coffee, cocoa, and creamy mascarpone. It was a satisfying end to our dining experience, although it didn't elevate the overall meal to a level that would make us rush back. The ambiance of Bellissimo Pizzeria & Ristorante was another surprise. We were expecting a cozy Italian restaurant vibe but found that it felt more like a bar. This wasn’t necessarily bad, but it was a bit off-putting given our expectations. The decor and atmosphere seemed more suited for a casual hangout spot rather than a traditional Italian dining experience. In summary, Bellissimo Pizzeria & Ristorante provided an average dining experience. The food ranged from good to just alright, with nothing particularly special that would make us eager for a return visit. The ambiance didn’t match our expectations for an Italian restaurant, leaning more towards a bar-like feel. Overall, we would rate our experience 3 out of 5 stars. If you’re looking for a place to grab a decent meal without high expectations, Bellissiomo might fit the bill. However, if you’re seeking an exceptional Italian dining experience, you might want to look elsewhere.

Bellissimo has been on my list of places to try for years as it's one of the few restaurants on the east side of Esplanade. I came on a Friday afternoon at around 12:50PM and it was quite busy inside. I ordered a medium 3 topping pizza to go for $15 (tax included). I liked their pizza as it was saucy and they didn't skimp out on the toppings. I also thought it was quite big for a medium. The dough was on the softer and thinner side. I think I'd request to get it well done next time. Would recommend and come back to try other items.

Homemade deliciousness in a casual venue! The fresh in-house made Cheese Manicotti is my personal favourite! At $17.50 it's the best deal for pasta in the city! The Lasagna is also amazing. Their soups are Awesome! Had the chicken and rice and loved it. Personal favourite is still the chicken noodle. Absolutely no Campbell's canned nonsense served here!
