Richmond Hill | Authentic Italian Family Restaurant Locals Rave About
This cozy trattoria, owned and operated by Italians, transports you straight to Tuscany the moment you step inside! Our family of four indulged in a feast - classic salad, appetizers, handmade pasta, and wood-fired pizza - all for around $120, an incredible value at just $30 per person! 🍕 Signature Wood-Fired Pizza A whopping 18 inches in diameter! Baked in a traditional stone oven, the crust is perfectly charred with delightful crispy spots while remaining chewy and elastic. Our Margherita pizza featured tangy-sweet tomato sauce and stringy buffalo mozzarella that stretched a full foot - so authentic even our Italian neighbors approved! 🍝 Handmade Pappardelle Bolognese The pasta is freshly rolled daily, with the ideal width to hold the rich meat sauce. The Bolognese simmers for 8 hours, developing deep flavors without being heavy - my daughter cleaned her plate! 🥗 Chef's Seasonal Salad Fresh local greens paired with imported Italian black olives and marinated artichokes, dressed in the chef's special lemon-olive oil vinaigrette - so refreshing we ordered a second portion! Hidden Gem The complimentary bread basket includes herb focaccia served with house-made chili oil. We nearly filled up on this before our mains arrived! Our sweet waiter noticed our enthusiasm and brought us an extra portion. 📍 Nonna's Oven 1285 Elgin Mills Rd E, Richmond Hill ✨ Pro tip: Reservations recommended on weekends when the place buzzes with Italian families gathering for lively dinners! #TorontoHiddenGems #BestItalianInTO #RichmondHillEats #FamilyDiningSpot #AuthenticWoodFiredPizza
