Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Bar Vendetta is a charming gem on Dundas with "amazing" service and "delicious" Italian fare. Known for its "incredible" crown cacio e pepe and intimate ambiance, it's perfect for romantic evenings or gatherings. The back patio is a standout, and the menu, though small, is "thoughtfully curated" and seasonally fresh.

    The small dishes were good but the pasta dishes were disappointing.

    Food was amazing, service was amazing, portion sizes were lacking though. After an app, main with a side and a dessert we were still a bit hungry but besides the portion size it was phenomenal and would definitely recommend it. Will go back—maybe just not often.

    We spent an evening at the bar, every dish was perfect, the server was attentive and low key - gave us space but was there when we needed them. A great night out

    Had dinner there. Food is really tasty, we loved the appetizers and the Crown Casio e Pepe, a bit letdown by the spaghetti though. Service is awesome and dishes arrived super fast. Dessert is great as well. I’d recommend this place more for drinks or big parties though, as the noise level is so high you’ll have to shout at other people to understand each other. Drinks + appetizers/small plates seem to be the way to go.

    Don’t sleep on the beans, and don’t miss out on the cacio. Everything including the suggested wine was perfection!

    Love, love, Loved! Every review I read about this place was spot on. Love the retro vibe, the music selection, the wine, the food. The service! Also the decor just topped it off for me! It’s the kind of place you want to go and tell your friends about it. Also the cocktail bar afterwards is a must!
