About the restaurant

Trattoria Timone is more than just a restaurant, the food, the ambiance, the service, it’s a package deal, but more so there is so much history here and the family presence is what makes it special.

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. When you visit Trattoria Timone, we want you to feel at home with the cuisine and service, giving you a memorable experience.

We look forward to dining with you.

This restaurant is a favourite of mine! Why? The food is always excellent - have never had a meal I didn't thoroughly enjoy, and I have dined here a lot. As well, the service is great - our server today was on top of everything! She even overheard my friend ask me if I had a tissue, and she came back with a box of them--that is the epitome of attention. She is definitely an asset to this establishment. Love this place.

Food was delicious and the ambiance was great. Although the cado e pepe (gnocchi) was good, my expectation was not met. I am a regular in Rome and basically know the true taste of Roman cacio e pepe.

I had the fennel salad and the spaghetti vongole. The fennel salad was light and refreshing and the spaghetti came with a healthy portion of clams. The sauce was delicious. The service was great, food came fast and we were well taken care of.

We were happy with our meal . We had the Burrata appetizer with focaccia . It was very good, the focaccia felt a bit dense for my taste . The linguine alle vongole was very good. Very disappointed with the tiramisu dessert , I have to say it was the worse I have ever tried. There was almost no cookies nor were they properly dunked in spresso coffee or licor the cream was also bland and not firm enough. I make my own tiramisu and I know what should it taste like. The restaurant was gracious not to charge us for it.

It's a little of this, a little of that and a whole new take on Italian. Our story is simple. Everything we can make fresh daily, we do. Including our hand-stretched mozzarella (made-to-order every day between 5pm & 11pm), our pasta, our signature 1/2 lb meatballs, our dough and desserts.

Okay, food lovers, listen up! 🎧 If you're looking for an Italian dining experience that will transport you straight to Italy, then you HAVE to check out Pescaraa in Oakville. 😍 Let me tell you, from the moment we walked in, we were blown away. The ambience was simply magical. ✨ Think warm lighting, cozy vibes, and that undeniable Italian charm. It was the perfect setting for a romantic dinner or a fun night out with friends. But let's talk about the food! 😋 Every dish we ordered was an absolute masterpiece. The pasta was cooked to perfection, the sauces were rich and flavorful, and the ingredients were clearly fresh and high-quality. 🤌 (Chef's kiss!) And the service? Impeccable! Our server, Raquel, was an absolute sweetheart. ❤️ She was attentive, knowledgeable, and made sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our meal. Give that girl a raise! Honestly, I can't recommend Pescaraa enough. It's definitely become my new go-to spot for authentic Italian cuisine in Oakville. 🇮🇹 #Pescaraa #OakvilleEats #ItalianFood #Foodie #RestaurantReview #DateNight #SupportLocal P.S. Don't forget to save room for dessert! You wont regret it.
