"I ordered the New Years eve meal for 2, it was absolutely delicious and it fed us for 2 days. I highly recommend this place. Portions are massive and the food is delicious. "

"Hands down, my favourite place to eat! Excellent!"

"At The Italian Eatery you are home ! Strangers become family and care is given to all tastes. A true testament to Italian soul food and culture. Bravo Paul & Rose"

"Very satisfied with my order of sfoglia cake, very carefully decorated and the sfoglia existed beyond my expectations, made mostly with delicious sponge cake and a phenomenal custard that was to die for. Being Italian myself I was not expecting an authentic real Italian bakery close to home, and I will be back with many more in the near future."

"We have had dinner, lunch and service counter for deli meat and cheese. Everytime is on point. Food is amazing and the service is warming. "

"Can't say enough about the food, the staff and the atmosphere. Everything is excellent! I don't make my own sauce anymore, I buy it here. Just amazing. We would eat here everyday if we could, lol. The fresh bread and buns are fabulous and the desserts are to die for. Thanks for this amazing place."

"We have eaten here a number of times and have always had a great meal. The servers are very friendly without being intrusive during your meal, the music is actually background so you can enjoy it and still carry on a conversation without yelling to be heard. The food is very tasty and always hot. All around great place to relax and enjoy a great meal."

"Just wanted to Thank Paul and the staff at The Italian Eatery, they catered out my son's confirmation on one June 15th and the food , cookies and cake were excellent. Everything was tasty and fresh, everyone enjoyed everything. We will definitely recommend The Italian Eatery to anyone. Thanks again"

"Just a huge thank you to Paul and his Wife and the whole team at the Italian Eatery. We had our kids communion/confirmation over the weekend and the food was absolutely outstanding from the fish to the pasta to the meat. The service was great and also would like to thank Gloria whom made our kids cake which was amazing and tasted even better than it looked. We were very pleased with everything and will defiantly be back as much as we can! Thanks again Paul and to your whole team! Veronica and Joe Iannello "

Exquisite and authentic Italian food. Had an amazing veal with eggplants as well as pasta!

"Went here for the first time for my bf's birthday, I gotta say I am totally impressed! They give you a fresh hot baked loaf of bread to start, & dinner was served literally 5 minutes after. Fast service by far! I will be going again for sure, Nice Italian Restaurant !"

"This is only the 2nd time I have ever reviewed a restaurant online. It was incredible. The calamari was light and delicate, not heavily battered and rubbery. French onion soup was amazing. Service was exceptional and everyone smiled. I think we were asked how everything was at least 10 times. My two somewhat picky kids were asking when we could come back again before we were out the door. Thank you Italian Eatery, we no longer have to travel to Woodbridge to enjoy quality Italian cuisine."

"Great place to eat. Friendly atmosphere, original home kitchen Italian food. Licenced to sell alcohol. Eating here reminds Italy. If you want home style cooking from scratch, this is place for you. It's Italian everything here, beer, wine, food, delicious desserts. Great line from owner of this place " We're not going to serve food here that we wouldn't eat ourselves". Now tables with umbrellas and chairs to relax outside, sweet. If I could I would give 6 stars."

"My family and I came in for dinner on Friday evening. Even though the restaurant was busy (obviously a popular spot), the staff were incredibly attentive and efficient. We were promptly seated and served the most amazing, not to mention complementary, parmesan-dusted bread appetizers - all I can say is WOW! I could have eaten the whole basket. I had a glass of wine within minutes which was very nice considering how busy they were. Our server, Kathryn, was like a breath of fresh air; her friendliness and professionalism did not go unnoticed. She made some great recommendations from the menu that we wouldn't have thought to order but absolutely loved! My kids were very happy with their Gnocchi and even happier with the dessert options - I recommend the cannoli, best I've ever had. Thanks for a great evening!"
