Charming
Good for special occasions
Neighborhood gem

Our food is a reflection of the melting pot of cultures that has gentrified the Queen West neighbourhood in Toronto. The menu has been designed for guests to share plates, in an effort to create a convivial and social dining experience.

Our Wood-Fire Pizzas are a cross between Roma and Neapolitan styles; cooked in a wood-burning M.A.M pizza oven imported from Italy. It yields a crust that is thin but sturdy. Wood-fire capabilities are critical for our menu as the flavour imparted on the food is exceptional and unique.

Our cocktails are equally thought out as our food. Our bartenders serve up a no-nonsense cocktail program featuring fresh, seasonal ingredients that are all made in house.

Everything was delicious and service was very good. The only thing is that is was very dark inside. Especially near the washroom area. I wouldn’t recommend for people with poor vision

Dined here with my family for the first time, and now I’m seriously wondering—why didn’t we come here sooner?! This place is a gem! From the moment we arrived, we felt warmly welcomed. They greeted us with Prosecco for the adults and non alcoholic Prosecco for my son, which he absolutely loved—so much so, he ended up having two. (Thankfully, it was non-alcoholic, or we’d have had a very “spirited” child on our hands!) We ordered a spread of dishes: burger, pizza, steak, kale Caesar salad, calamari, mushroom tagliatelle, and finished with sorbet. Honestly, everything was amazing. The burger was juicy, the fresh-cut fries were addictive (we couldn’t stop eating them), and the Neapolitan-style pizza was a slice of wood-fired heaven with its thin crust and perfect char. The steak? Juicy, well-seasoned, and cooked to perfection. The mushroom tagliatelle was absolutely to die for—rich, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. Hands down, a must-try! The calamari was delicious too, though I wish the portion was a little bigger (I blinked, and it was gone!). As for the kale Caesar salad, it was tasty, but those crispy prosciutto bits? Let’s just say they’re not for the faint of dental health. Beyond the food, the decor was beautifully done. The walls were stylish and perfect for snapping a few photos—this place knows how to set a vibe. Service was great as well, friendly and attentive without being intrusive. We ended with sorbet, which was the perfect refreshing finish to a wonderful meal. Overall, The Good Son impressed us, and we’ll definitely be back. Highly recommend!

The reason for lack of stars in Overall and Ambiance was because our group found there to be a lot of flies (fruit flies of some sort) in the restaurant. We were constantly having to swat flies away from the food and around us. As well, the table next to us were slapping/clapping flies to kill them. The Food and the Service were great, food is fresh and very tasty and servers are attentive.
