    Bolognese
    Sarah W.

    Downtown guelph where parking is almost non existent, this is a place found visible at the intersection. When you walk in, you first get greeted by the hostess. It was a Saturday at 2pm, so we weren't hopeful to get a table, however a few empty tables near a very nice looking bar and within 5 minutes we were seated. Promptly given beverages, the service was wonderful. We were a party of two. The ambiance was tasteful and quiet. We were able to actually talk and hear each other. Calamari arrabiatta - 8/10 The calamari was nicely fried. It lays on a flavourful tomato sauce with pieces of Thai chilis scattered. That's the spicy part of the dish, only if you eat the chili as well. Drizzled with lots of a mayo like sauce on top. Eggplant parmigiana 8/10 This was surprisingly small for $12, but from this I have concluded that their tomato base is very very good. Nicely seasoned. Baked well. Cheese was melty. I kind of wish I didn't get the ends of the eggplant though... Arugula e prosciutto pizza 8.5/10 This is a neo style pizza so expect the crust to be very thin with a soggy middle. The ingredients are very fresh. I found the dough to be a little salty for my tastebuds but still a very nice pizza oven flavor. Bolognese - 8/10 The pasta was Al dente and perfectly cooked. The sauce was average but still good. I asked for some Parmesan and they gave a hefty amount which I love! The sauce could be a little richer in flavour but overall a decent pasta.

    Tiramisu ( salted , very creamy) delicious 4 3.5/5

    A perfect place for a romantic evening with some decent Italian food. For the best experience go for the house specials and pizzas. So our dragoncello pasta was different in taste but very dry and very fried types. It should have had some more cheese or if it wasn't fried it would have been been a little better. The house red was off dry, smoky and very delicious wine, paired well with our pizza. We ordered a 1/2 ltr. The house bread served along with balsamic vinegar and olive oil was a winner. It was a rosemary bread , served warm. It was one of the best bread we've ever got. My 2 year old also loved it. I wish they refilled, we requested but they still didn't bring any.. our server Jes was very cheerful though. The pizza was the highlight of the night, cooked perfect. The pesto was very aromatic and fresh. St last but not the least tiramisu- hmm not sure of I liked the offbeat taste! It was very creamy and little bit salty, so I am not even sure If I liked it or not. Or I did like it but not like yes bring more. Hahaha. Overall still a good experience!

    Very good Italian restaurant in Guelph downtown. We ordered the Toscana pizza (vegetarian), it was with basil pesto, fior di latte, olives, artichokes, mushrooms and roasted red peppers. It was fantastic. We ordered the dragancello pasta. It was with cremini mushrooms, tarragon pesto, fresh cream and grams padano. Pasta was okay. We found it to be very dry, would have preferred it saucier. The tiramisu was delicious. They served rosemary focaccia with olive oil and balsamic. It was amazing. The house red wine was ($20) for half litre. It was okay.

    Came here for a date night with my husband as I've been wanting to try out this place since moving to Guelph! I absolutely loved the charred octopus. The mushroom crostini doesn't seem to be on the menu anymore but I'm a huge fan of mushrooms and was not disappointed with these! The only thing I wasn't too fond of was the pizza we had ordered, we opted to get one that had anchovies on it and found that it ended up being far too fishy for us, that was an error on our part having never tried them before. It would've probably been wiser to go with a safer bet where all the toppings were things we had tried before but honestly, it was an experience and we still managed to finish 90% of the pizza! I don't think it's on the menu anymore either. The staff were extremely attentive and friendly and their recommendations were and descriptions were spot on! All in all it was a lovely experience and the food was 4/5 quality!

    Hidden gem. Food was amazing. Service was good but just a little slow. After covid lockdown lift, the food industry has been hit with staff shortage so the slow service wast totally understandable.

    I had lunch today at Buon Gusto, which is in downtown Guelph. I love love love pizza and ordered a D'Abuzzo pizza. Their pizzas are made in a wood-burning oven, hearth-baking them at 900 degrees Fahrenheit for 90 seconds. It was a good pizza. I liked the crust, which is the traditional Neapolitan thin-crust style ... it was soft and chewy. The cheese was creamy. The salami was salty. There was a lot of tomato ... good thing I like tomatoes! I'd get it again. Louisa was my server. She was friendly and took good care of me.

    As a side gig I've done a few deliveries with Skip the Dishes and this is a popular pick up spot so…read moreI thought I'd try it myself. Have now ordered a few times and can honestly say this is quality goodness. I love having an ultra thin crust option and customizing my toppings. I'm a picky pizza girl and I highly recommend these guys!

    Tried this pizza place for the first time last night because my boyfriend raved about it endlessly…read more(he's kind of a pizza aficionado). Since it was cold we ordered online and then went on our merry way to pick up our order. To start, their online system is pretty straight forward in terms of ordering and the layout is pretty clean cut. The prices were average and they seemed to have plenty of good deals. Rumour had it that this place loads your pizza on toppings--truth. The last thing they are is stingy! There was plenty of cheese, and my Greek toppings were all fresh. You have multiple options when ordering for the kind of crust you want--we chose the garlic dusted crust. T'was quite delicious. I'm a sauces person myself-- I actually cannot eat pizza if not accompanied by a dipping sauce. Their brand I believe was called Victoria's House (or something). I went with the blue cheese dip--amazing! Definitely blew out of the water all the other dipping sauces offered by other franchises. All in all, the pizza was great, the toppings plenty, and the dipping sauce creamy and flavourful. The reason for my 4 stars is because I'm still partial to my Brickhouse pizza. My boyfriend would probably rate Topper's a 10 out of 5 if he could. Either way, if you're having the pizza munchies and have a Topper's near you, give them a try. It would likely be a snow ball chance in hell before you actually regret getting a pizza from here. Oh, and they deliver, too!
