I was craving pasta so I stumbled upon this cozy spot on yelp. Reminiscent of pastabar in Amsterdam, I'm thrilled this place is so close to home. Pizza was delicious, dough was a little thick for me since I like NY style but hey the home made pasta definitely made me forget about NY anything. The pasta was chewy and tender with really rich flavours and the sauce wasn't super salty. We even got a sample of the panacotta with their home made berry compote which was super good!!! Definitely will come back read more

So I returned because last time I was here, I noticed the delicious pizzas that were being served. Served on wood planks, the pizzas are hand made with fresh dough. I ordered the Affumicato pizza which is topped with smoked bacon, mozzarella, tangy rich tomato sauce, mushrooms, and scallions. Crust is delicious, soft with crisp edges. Definitely glad I returned. read more

Levetto Aurora - Affumicato pizza - Pizza Near Me - Aurora, Ontario

Fantastic atmosphere and great food for a decent price. The levetto in Aurora has recently switched to new management and they're doing a fantastic job! I always love when I see the staff happy because that usually means great service and delicious food. Took my dad and brother there for fathers day, and they didnt disappoint. They're both excited to go back already! Keep it up! read more

For a unique pasta or pizza experience Levetto combines what feels like it should be fast food with a lovely sit down modern Italian experience. Their portions are big enough to share. Staff very friendly and helpful for making choices. The food is very fresh and authentic. You're not getting something that was reheated... this is the real thing. I'm so glad to have Levetto in the neighbourhood. The pasta is freshly made. The pizza is thin and not overwhelmed with toppings. They have a great selection of eats. Had the salad as well. read more

This is a review for the new management: I have always enjoyed eating in and getting take out from Levetto Aurora. I just got take out for the first time since the management has changed. The atmosphere is different. The blonde woman at the front cash seemed overwhelmed even though the restaurant was only half full. Her hair was up but she had many blonde hairs stuck to the back of her black shirt - that grossed me out. If she's in the kitchen area (open kitchen) she should not be shedding hair. Thankfully, I didn't find any hair in my pasta! The pasta tasted similar to before - except what seemed to be a change in the quality/type of meat in the pasta. Previous to this, I only had great things to say about Levetto Aurora. I have enjoy the food in the past, so I'll give the place one more try and eat in. On a side note - it seems that they've started a reward program - buy 6 pastas and get one free. This only applies to dining in. It should apply to take-out too. Buying a pasta is buying a pasta regardless - especially when the machine gives you the option to tip on takeout. read more

My husband and I have been excited to try out this Levetto location and were excited to see that the place was jampacked. This place has such a cool vibe and the decor is on point. Aesthetically, it did not disappoint. [[TL;DR understaffed, long wait times, subpar quality of food for this chain. Staff is friendly and venue is beautiful.]] When we walked in, there was only one waiter on staff and he was so busy bussing tables AND attending to people. I figured we got him at a bad time and this must be the evening rush (it was approx. 6pm). We didn't get any welcome even from the kitchen staff (the venue layout is open concept so they could have shouted "Hi, please sit down!" Or "Hi, please wait for the waiter!" However, we got no welcome or direction and didn't know what to do but we took charge and sat down at one of the two open tables. A family that walked in behind us had to clear dishes from the last remaining table themselves. The poor waiter was so busy that he didn't realize new patrons had sat down and didn't give us a menu until asked. By that time, I had already pulled up the menu on my phone. We ordered the marguerita pizza and the pasta with white cheese and sundried tomatoes. As I have said in my other reviews, I believe if a place can do basic dishes properly then it is worth exploring other dishes later on. Upon ordering, we waited over 30 minutes and started to get frustrated. People were walking in and getting their food (I'm assuming from ordering ahead) but we were still waiting. At 35-ish minutes, I got up to ask when our food would be ready and the manager said our pizza had just been put into the oven right then and our pasta was being started now. I understand that orders have to be cooked in the order that they are taken but I was surprised that there was no communication that my order would be taking this long. My husband asked the waiter why it was taking so long and he responded with a snarky smile, "Well man, that's just the way it is." LOL what? If it's a concern for the customer then that's NOT just the way it is for us. I understand that the waiter must've been overwhelmed with the dinner rush and being the only wait staff so I get why he responded that way. He didn't mean for it to be rude. But that wasn't the right way to respond when a customer shows concern. And if it is the norm, I wish we were warned that the wait time would be longer than normal. Our pasta came at 45 minutes in and our pizza came right before we finished our pasta so we got it to go. I asked to speak to the manager and politely let him know that some communication of the long wait times would be beneficial as a heads up to patrons and he was clearly understaffed. He politely nodded back and said that the weekends can get wait times of an hour sometimes. In hindsight, if that's so, then why hasn't he figured out a system to shorten these wait times? Is the kitchen too small, does there need to be more kitchen staff or wait staff? Really, as a customer, I shouldn't have to think of these things.. but I just got the feeling that this guy did not give an f about what I was saying as he responded with a "is there anything else I can help you with?". He responded nicely but his face just said "whatever". When we arrived home, I was starving and opened the pizza. 3/4 of the pizza was burnt on the bottom. I tasted a piece and the burnt taste was very apparent. There was also very little cheese on it but that doesn't bother me much since I'm not a huge cheese lover. But, if we're talking about general serving sizes then this was definitely lacking. Overall, I'm super disappointed because I ended up having to make myself something for dinner at home. The staff was polite enough and the manager at least knows his cookie-cutter phrases to say, so that's appreciated to a certain extent. If the manager is reading this, I'll say it again: you need more staff and 45 minutes of waiting for food is not okay. read more

We decided to buy take out here expecting it to taste as good as the food from the Levetto on Dufferin Rd. What a huge disappointment. My husband ordered the spicy soppressata pizza and I ordered the pasta carbonara. A pizza has four corners yet only three had sauce and cheese and ingredients. The ingredients were sparse. My pasta was missing bacon. Normally it's plentiful, in small pieces and fully cooked to be nice and crispy. Instead it was fatty and not fully baked. We picked up take out to eat at a park nearby since their patio tables were broken. They forgot to give us cutlery so I had to drive back to get some. The staff were good except this one who completely ignored me even though we were separated by a plexiglass. She must have confused it by a bulletproof glass... When I asked for the cutlery, she said she didn't think they had any even though she had just given some to the customer ahead of me. There was no apology for their mistake. Cutlery for take out should be pretty standard, no? All this aside, I suggest you drive to the Dufferin location instead for pizza and pasta done right. read more

My all time favourite-restaurant and extremely underrated. Most meals come with all-you-can eat bread and salad. You get as much food as you want for the price of one dish at most restaurants. Pasta is all-you-can-eat on Wednesdays. Staff are always wonderful at this location and other locations I've been to. read more

Pizza was delicious and the staff were great and accommodating. Fun atmosphere and a very clean environment. I would definitely come back to try out their other food on the menu! read more

By golly, I think I've found a casual, fast Italian place to meet my pasta cravings. I really appreciated that the owner still honoured their lunch special despite it being after 3pm. I'm certain to recommend this to anyone in the area! We ordered 2 pastas out for take-out around 3pm on a Friday, and both exceeded my expectations in terms of quantity and taste. Pomodoro: $9.99 lunch special + pop: Great texture to the spaghetti and very nice tomato sauce. That portion size could have been spread out for 2 meals if you had any other food. Kam's Alla Vodka: $16 The texture of the rigatoni was spot on. You could taste the vodka in the rose sauce. The italian sausage also added a nice kick to the pasta. The scallions on top really sealed the deal. For a take-out Italian meal around $30, I look forward to coming here again! read more

I went there and we tried the pizza and salad. We tried two of the pizzas and two of the salads. The pizzas had a thick light crust which was delicious. Everything was very fresh and was made for each order. You need to put your order at the cash register and have a seat and they will bring the food to you. It wasn't very clear to us and we waited a few minutes for someone to come over and take our order. Fortunately one of the staff came over and explained the process to us. We will definitely go back to try another one of their pizza's and to try the other salads that they are offering. The prices are very reasonable. I believe this is the best pizza that we've had in Aurora. read more

Great food, I believe the owner needs to hire someone especially for the front of the house to provide good service especially since customers are tipping after paying and not after eating there since you pay before you eat. I had to get my own utensils and napkins. read more

Absolutely lovely place to dine in. Been looking for an excuse to come here and finally had one: friend moved up here and wanted to eat out, so we came here lol I went in not knowing I needed to order food at the front, so I was all ready to sit and had my jacket off. Of course I was redirected by my friend bc she knew where to order lol. We ordered two pastas and two pizzas, all four items were a delight! I couldn't help but wonder.. How come the pasta is $12.xx? Many restaurants place their pasta at the 18.xx+ range, so how come it's different here? I was genuinely taken back by how awesome the pasta was. To some, the pasta may not have been very savoury, but I like my pasta with minimal salt and sauce that's not overpowering. The two pasta were actually a perfect combination. What I mean is the rigatoni was packed full of beefy/tomato flavour and the carbonara had a light cream/egg aroma. When the two are paired together, you can really taste how wonderful each are in their own respect. The rigatoni was just pure awesome because I'm the savoury kind of guy. The carbonara was different, too light for me but the hint of bacon in the sauce made it THAT much better. I will certainly go for the rigatoni by default, but the carbonara was not shabby either. The pizzas were also great. Definitely worth it all, especially with that delicious and soft crust - nommmssss. We had the Verde and salsiccia, both with distinct flavours and both a must try option. I said it once and I'll say it again, another perfect pairing. The salsiccia is a tomato/meat based pizza (my default) and the Verde is a pesto/veggie based. The contrast between the two are world's apart, but when eaten together, something special happens! Kind of like eating salts then sugar, this was meat then veggie.. Pure joy to eat! Did I mention how much I dislike olives? Well, I ate them bc of these pizzas.. That's how awesome they were. If you get a chance, pair these together :) I will be coming back soon, wait for me.. read more

This place should be bigger. I suspect they will need the space. The pizza is one thing, but the pastas really got my attention. I tried the Bucatini ($12), with its beautifully done pasta, guanciale, sautéed red onion, chili flake, spicy tomato sauce an herbs. It tasted like a cross between Italian fine dining and mama's home cooking. I also had a chance to acquire the "I can't finish this" portion of a friend's bowl of Carbonara. It was equally as good! And of course I purloined a taste of the Affumicato pizza. What's not to like about smoked bacon, mozzarella and mushrooms other than me stealing a slice of your pizza... Levetto has a really social vibe, with big, family sized tables, crowded together so you have great opportunities to see what others are eating, and to pass the condiments from table to table as needed. Be warned: this location is in a new mall with a tiny parking lot. Since it shares space with Chocolate Favoris, the parking lot is already jammed and the other retail spaces haven't been occupied yet. Judging by the food at Levetto, the parking lot will be as full as the tables... read more

The pizzas, pastas and salads were delicious!! My favourite was the Funghi pizza. The staff were friendly as well!

excellent food ,good portions ,but very disappointing to find nothing vegan on the menu read more

So I had my birthday here on Monday June 17, and the food and service was great!! They accommodated me last minute and went above and beyond to make it perfect! If you don't know what to order, I suggest any pizza on the menu, you will not regret it ENJOY :) read more

Pasta is amazing. Lots of flavour is the sauces. I have tried all the different pastas on their menus and they all are stand out dishes. I am not a huge fan of their salads or desserts. read more

My visit began with a condescending "lesson" from a staff member on "European dining." I should have left at this point but I decided to try a pizza nonetheless. Instead of the thin crust pizza shown in all the photos online, my pizza was thick like a deep dish and absolutely flavorless. There's nothing European about the Levetto experience (at least the Aurora location) and the food was absolutely appalling. No flavour, no salt, thoroughly disappointing to say nothing about the rude, mansplaination I received up in arriving. read more

Went here on Saturday night at 8:40pm and their closing time was 9:30pm. Almost all of the chairs were on the tables and I think it was the manager who was pretty rude that they were closed. By my calculations there was still 50 minutes based on your advertised times. Wonder how many others were turned away. You guys lost out on my $100 in sales. Get your operation hours to match website and the hours on the door. read more

Just came from a second visit. The pasta is probably the best I've had - outside of Italy and my aunts kitchen. It's authentic and incredibly good. It's simple but that's what it's supposed to be. I tried the tomato spagetti (sorry I should have posted a picture but I ate it lol) too good to photograph. The pasta is made in house. Everyday. Salad are good. Dressing is on the side - I wish they dressed it for table service but - maybe that's just how they serve it. Huge portions. The pizza was a miss for me. Reminded me of the kind of pizza they sold in st Marc's square. Thick with fresh sauce and fresh mozzarella. A little under done but I'm super picky about pizza being on the thinner side (queen margarita in toronto is my benchmark). I'm giving 5 stars because the pasta is just the best I've had in a restaurant. Look forward to trying the rest of the menu. Portions are huge so pace yourself! Thanks for a great lunch!!! read more

I went there around 5:15 pm to order takeout and left empty handed by 6pm. I had ordered small funghi pizza because I heard amazing reviews about it but was disappointed about the wait time. Not only did I have to follow up with the cashier, Mariam, twice, she informed me from the start it would take about 20 mins. So 30 mins passed and I went to ask how much longer and she said "it's coming". As the restaurant is getting busier, I understand the orders are piling up so I waited another 15 mins before going up to inquire again. This time the cashier went to check on the ovens and came back to only tell me another 10 mins. This is when I got upset because not only did she misled me into thinking it would be be around 20 mins she also wasted my time. At that time I just told them to cancel it and give me a refund. To make matter even worst, when the manager came by to give me the refund, not only was he not apologetic, he said it was my fault for not giving them my name when it was never asked to begin with. This is by far the worst customer experience I have encounter in all the levetto location and I will never step foot in this restaurant again. read more

The food is low quality. cold slow service. And they put all there good reviews in if this is not posted i will report the review board They have young inexperience cooks and there is little parking. Let people be the judge read more

We tried this restaurant for an early dinner on a Saturday night. The service was excellent and the food was good. I had expected more of a sit-down restaurant but it was fine - you order at the counter and they bring it to you. The young people who work at Levetto are energetic, friendly and helpful. I had the bucatini which was really good. I also had the white chocolate tiramisu which was "deconstructed". It was a bit dry but a good interpretation. read more

Pizzas are more like flatbreads but the toppings are fairly generous. The pastas were good, simple but tasty and satisfied our hunger. The roasted radicchio salad was disappointing- two meagre pieces in a large bowl of spring mix greens. read more

Terrible service waited 1/2 hour for a salad and when I asked about the wait time I received a "snarky" remark from the chef who I presumed was one of the owners Will not return and will certainly make my displeasure known to others Not the way to treat new patrons Food quality left something to be desired read more

We took our hockey team and parents for lunch at Levetto. Given that we had a large group of 33 people and we needed to be in and out, in time for our next game, we pre-ordered our meals. The owner, Matt, was excellent in welcoming our party and accommodated all our requests. Our group thoroughly enjoyed the selection of salads and pastas. The quality of our food was very good and it tasted wonderful. We will definitely go back when we return for another tournament, next year. Thank you to Anne-Marie for serving us so quickly and efficiently. read more

The pizza is AMAZING! We ordered a personal Affumicato and a personal Soppressata with the spicy sausage (it's spicy, too!). The crust is light and crispy around the edges and the cheese is super creamy. The Soppressata is LOADED with toppings. We couldn't even finish them! Best pizza we've had in YEARS! read more

The pasta is fresh and the pizza dough is airy and light. Wonderful and delicious food. Will definitely be returning.

Great GREAT Pizza for the price - quality food! You'll pay a little more for the size but VERY worth it! Probably my fav pickup in town. Casual eat in if you like but a bit noisy. Service at this location is Fab! read more

Amazing food and amazing prices for freshly made pasta. Have been twice and have loved both times. Great atmosphere and great people serving you. Definitely one of our favorite places. Recommend it to everyone. read more

We are still new to Aurora and try to find some local eatery. This is a nice surprise. Will definitely come back. Pasta is excellent.

Ok so I have another review for the dufferin location that I likely had given more stars. So it's all about the growing pains for this Aurora location, so i'mma re evaluate this review in a month or so. However, the flavors of the food here is perfect, just like any other Levetto, however this location hasn't quite mastered the cook on the pizza's, and I find the same issue with the pasta being hit or miss, over or undercooked some times. This will take time to work out at this new location and I will keep going because it's close to me and it's still way better then any other pasta place (i want to smack myself for trying east side marios the other weekend donw the st from Levetto, but thats a diff story)... so keep giving this place a chance, it's still so tasty! read more

Waited over 40 minutes for two orders of pasta, while they kept orders filled for all take out customers. Clearly dining in is not their priority when going to this restaurant. read more

For the price I paid for dinner for my husband and daughter, I would expect more. More flavour, more service, more everything. The pizza is more like a focaccia with some toppings, I've had a better at fast food chains and I have personally prepared better carbonara and pomodoro sauce. And god forbid you forget to order a glass of wine or a drink because then you have to get back into the line to order and pay...yes, you heard right, you pay before you are served and then get up to order something ...it certainly felt like a joke when you are asked to leave a tip before you are even served anything...riduclous concept...save this type of service and food for a cafeteria...If you like fast food Italian at high end prices..then this is the place for you...skip it and go to Joia bistro for a much better experience. read more

I'm usually a huge fan of Levetto (still am) but our favourite pasta we usually order at the Vaughan location (carbonara) tasted completely different here! It was bland and the sauce was strangely clumpy, it was also lacking meat. It did not taste like the carbonara we were typically served at other Levettos, or any carbonara at all for that matter. Our other favourite is the funghi pizza, this tasted the same which was a nice relief. We were so thrilled to discover a new Levetto opening up so close to our home. Even though our favourite pasta wasn't up to par, the pizza is worth going for along with the rigatoni! read more

Fantastic experience! We called in a pick-up order before the dinner rush and were told it would be ready in 15 minutes. I got there 15 minutes later and the food was ready to go and being put in the bag. We tried 3 different pizzas (Margherita, Affumicato and Funghi) along with a few orders of the Pomodorro pasta and shared it all family-style. Everyone loved it. The pizza dough was cooked but still soft and the crust had a perfect amount of crunch. Our girls who are picky eaters finished up almost all of the Pomodorro as well. And nobody had room for even thinking about dessert. read more
