Our head chef/owner has a Sardinian background and brings you cuisines from the Sardinian region, amongst other regions of Italy. From the bread, desserts, pastas and sauces, there are no preservatives and we even pick from our own garden when we can.

    My experience was quite good. Very good at greeting and seating. The dining room was a little loud for having a business discussion but for most having dinner with friends and family it would be fine. Very good food.

    This was our second visit to Giulietta and it was just as good as the first time we experienced it! The grilled octopus was just as good as we remember and our new favourite dish was the stuffed gnocchi with shaved truffle. Also the service was on another level as we wanted to shoutout Sergio who was checking in on us the whole night while also sending out dishes. We will definitely be planning our next visit to Giulietta as each time get better and better.

    Great atmosphere, incredible menu and the staff was friendly and welcoming. Definitely adding this to my list of top tier restaurants. Food was 10/10. Every ingredient worked harmoniously with each other and you could tell it was carefully created to make an ultimate dining experience. Their non-alcoholic options are next level. Got the virgin espresso martini and it was unique. It took a few sips to get a sense of the flavour profile but it was really good. The staff was great. Our server was very friendly, informative and helpful when going over the menu. He checked in after each dish and made sure we were taken care of. Our reservation was right when they opened for dinner. We had a great view overlooking Toronto and the atmosphere was quiet and quite peaceful. I would gladly dine here again and will recommend it to my friends and family. Thank you to everyone at The Canoe for such a great experience.

    We are a group of former coworkers who get together once a month. We requested a round table vs a long table as that makes it easier to talk to everyone. The table was all set up for us. We delayed ordering our food as one of the group was a no show. This was not an issue for our server. Our orders were taken, the food arrived in good time and was enjoyed by all. This was the third time the group has dined at Marine Tavern and we will be back. Great service and good food. Can't go wrong!
