Best Restaurants with a Wood Oven in St. Lawrence Market

Ate at La Pizza and La Pasta on Bloor St at lunchtime. Very busy. Food and service were excellent. I would have appreciated more signs to direct us in and out, however the staff were great at helping us seniors find our way around.

One of the best restaurants we’ve been to so far! They accommodated our group of 5 + baby so well, giving us lots of space and attention! Happy hour was 5-7, plus 1/2 bottles of wine, which almost felt too good to be true. Our waitress even went through the process of finding a natural wine for us, and the whole experience felt so relaxed and comfortable. Water glasses were always filled, empty plates and cups cleared instantly. The little things really make the biggest difference. It never felt too noisy, but just busy enough to enjoy privacy in our conversation, and general atmospheric noise. We recommend to anyone looking for a special place to take family or friends, this will not disappoint and is worth every cent! Also our highlight was the Short Ribs, even the baby went crazy for them!

Visiting from Newfoundland and this was the best meal of our trip (and we went to several bib gourmand restaurants)! Absolutely amazing Italian food, with phenomenal service and a chef who puts a lot of heart into her food and her restaurant. I’m so glad we came here— all four of my party had a different pasta and they were each amazing in their own way— I’ll be back for sure, would highly recommend !

I have been there two times and definitely will come back many more times! The pasta and pizza are really among some of the best we have ever had, all with a reasonable price and friendly service

My hostess was awesome. Forgot her name but the one who brightend the lights for my table area. Please give her a raise.
