Via Cibo is a good choice for groups that are looking for Italian food. Came here with some colleagues after work. The salads, breads and pastas were fresh. The quality of food was good. Food was prepared very fast. read more

Fast food style, eg you order at counter. Majority of the menu items have cream , so if you have any dairy intolerance best to skip. They also dont have alcohol permit although wine on menu. But overall food tastes were good. read more

In all honesty, I didn't really enjoy this place. I don't like the overall setup of the restaurant. The restaurant feels like a takeout cafeteria place. I ate the Bolognese pasta and I didn't really enjoy it. It could have been a little bit more flavorful. The stuff and customer service was great though. Wouldn't be going again read more

We went in a group of 3 in a lazy early Saturday afternoon. No lineups at all while having full staff behind the counter. Pretty quick to cook our order. Their pizza was simply a beauty to have. I like their very eye-catching pizza oven a lot and it is a real deal. The pizza baked from it was so hot and crisp while having bits of charcoal flavor on the toppings. Nicely done. The pastas were equally nice to have. We had a Broccolini & Sausage Penne and a Chicken Alfredo Pasta with EXTRA chicken and parmesan in it. Evilly delicious with parmesan cheese, carbs, high-geared sausages, and extra virgin olive oil. Well, it was a slow Saturday brunch, whatever! Just have some cool food fun to start the weekend in a Yelper fashion! Good menu varieties. Seriously recommended! read more

Tried out this place yesterday with my family. Husband ordered the pizza and really enjoyed it. I ordered gnocchi gorgonzola and it was disappointing because it was mainly a creamy cheese sauce, no gorgonzola to be detected. The concept is different, service is almost non existent. Aside from table runners, there is no one taking care of tables following up on food coming out. Felt like we were sitting in a fast food restaurant but cleaner and elevated. Probably will stick to pizza next time. read more

First time visitor with my family. We ordered a selection of dishes and no one was disappointed. We had the arancini and the soup of the day (tortellini in a tomato broth) as appetizers and they were excellent. We had the chicken with mushrooms, meatball sandwich, the mushroom risotto, and the chicken Plarmesan. Everything was good. We got the Nutella donuts for dessert and they were good too. We'd definitely return. read more

Excellent service, clean restaurant, very good pizza, will return weekly as I have been for years

I come here not infrequently to catch up with my family over dinner. It's a casual restaurant which offers quick and homey Italian food, including multiple pasta and pizza dishes. There are definitely fancier and more authentic places (e.g. Terroni, Pizzeria Libretto), but there is no denying that the offerings at Cibo are tasty and a standout option when you are looking for something in a class a bit lower than the aforementioned places. It is very reasonably priced and they have specific days of the week where pizza or pasta are on special. Highly recommend for a more casual and laid back meal. read more

I decided to ordered some take out from this place. The food is outstanding however, I would recommend dining in as the pizza was a bit cold by the time I received. The price is slightly high for the portion and for what it is. read more

So happy we found this place when we did! Satisfies the massive pasta craving and always tastes fresh and delicious. This is definitely our go-to spot for pasta when we're in the area. Portion sizes look small in the take out containers, but I assure you, it's enough. I usually get the gnocchi gorgonzola and a beets and goat cheese salad. I love both so much, I can never pick just one! For some reason, I can't order the gnocchi online so I always have to call in, but they do have it available. I like to get it with pancetta if they have. It just adds that little salty something. It's a super saucy gnocchi dish and they usually have chunks of other stuff in it like tomatoes. It keeps the dish light and fresh despite it being basically a big ol' bowl of carbs. I love getting this for a quick and easy date night meal. Service is quick and friendly. Can't wait to order again! read more

This review is for coffee only. I popped in hoping to grab an espresso and was not disappointed! They made a beautiful ristretto, served at the table in a ceramic cup along with a glass of water. Be still my heart, this Italian girl was a very happy camper. Excellent service and great coffee. I will return to try the food, which oooked really interesting. They have a wood burning stove for pizza, gluten free options, and even feature and Italian style brunch on weekends. I will definitely return. read more

We ordered in cause we wanted pizza and gnocchi. So we decided to order from Via Cibo. After we placed the order, food same within 30 minutes. I was shocked with the speed. On to the food. Pizza was somewhat warm, but still tasted great. The dough wasn't soggy at all and their sauce with pepperoni was just right. Gnocchi was piping hot still. And very tasty. I'm glad Via Cibo has moved onto using more sustainable packaging. Overall experience was pretty good. Only comments are pizza isn't as hot as I wanted and maybe just a bit more pricey. But can't complain if you want freshly made pizza. read more

Via Cibo - Pepperoni pizza and gnocchi - Italian Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

It looks proper from the outside and has a wood burning oven, but it's more on the casual side and family-oriented. It's a restaurant/fast food hybrid. You order your food from the counter, they give you a sign with a number, you find your own table, and they bring the food to you. They still check up on you, no tip required. I tried two different entrees. The Chicken & Portobello, which didn't have enough chicken and portobello, but had a lot of plain, dry spaghetti. The Veal was decent, but was more like a cutlet, had lots of sauce and mushrooms. The salad was also a bit on the plain side too. The portions were on the smaller side? Overall okay experience, average Italian food, but nothing stands out. read more

Stopped in for a quick midweek lunch date with my husband and we were pleasantly surprised with the quality of the food. The space is nicely laid out with mix of tables and banquettes. Once you place your order, you're given a number to take to your table and they bring out the food to you. We ordered Osso Bucco linguini (you can opt for Penne, if you please) and a veal panini. The Osso Bucco linguini was a hearty mound of al dente pasta enrobed in silky tomato sauce with shredded chunks of braised beef topped with generous amount of shaved Parm. The pasta was perfectly cooked and I loved the balanced sauce with all the chunks of beef and tomato. I meant to take some home but it was so good, my husband and I finished it. The veal sandwich was lightly fried veal cutlet topped with sauteed mushrooms served with a small tossed green on the side. Although it was tasty enough, it was over shadowed by how good the Osso Bucco pasta was. Our first time at Via Cibo won't be our last for sure. Will be back to try more pasta offerings soon. read more

Was craving Italian and since I'm a huge fan of Cibo's food, I decided to try Via Cibo and I'm SO GLAD I DID. The food, especially the chicken parmigiana was amazing! So flavourful and a decent portion size. I got a side of Tuscan fries as well which was also delicious. I ordered through Ubereats and was offered free bastone dolce (cinnamon sticks with Nutella) if you purchase $15 or more (which I did). I'll definitely be reordering from here! read more

Via Cibo serves solid rustic Italian fare. Love their daily specials since I am always on a budget. The Tuesday $8 pasta dish really satisfy my carb craving. The pasta was cooked perfectly al dente. $8 pizza Wednesday?! I am in! I am also eyeing that Bombalinos with Nutella please. read more

Don't eat here. the olive oil they use is stale so any products they make with olive oil tastes awful

My taste buds have been spoiled in Socal where good food is plentiful, affordable and authentic. It's turned me into a food snob where I refuse to go to a place that has anything less than 4 stars. The exception to my rule is when a fellow Yelper, whom I trust, recommends a place. The lovely Shubhi A. suggested for us to meet up at Via Cibo (you say chee-bow) for a girly lunch date. I can see why she's a regular here: it's a stylish eatery with shiny metal light fixtures, artsy wall decor and with a pizza oven that looks likes it's bedazzled! Good for big groups with a large communal table and even an outdoor patio. Staff are as helpful and sweet as can be (tip - come as soon as they open on a weekday before the lunch rush if you like things quiet AND you want good service). Order at the cashier, choose your seat and they'll deliver your food to you. WE ORDERED: Margherita (thin crust) pizza - crushed tomato sauce, Fior Di Latte and fresh basil. SHUBHI A. TIP - if you like a crisp crust but not hard, ask for it well done. It was ok, but Shubhi A. said it's usually better. Mista salad with spinach, romaine, arugula, grape tomatoes, celery with white balsamic dressing. Simple and fresh. Ossobuco Ragu pasta - shredded braised veal, broccolini, slow roasted tomato and Grana Padano Cheese. There was tender juicy meat in each forkful YUM! The pasta was softer than al dente which is how I like my pasta. Stella di Nutella (you choose the flavor of your two sorbetto/gelato scoops) with a scoop of Raspberry lime, a scoop of Strawberry Rhubarb sorbetto, Nutella drizzle and a sprinkling of powdered sugar. YUM YUM YUM! The fruit flavored sorbettos paired perfectly with the ooey gooey melty chocolate and hazelnut Nutella. Solid 3.5 for the food bumped up to 4 for their ambiance and wonderful service (Thursday early lunch time). Would definitely come back to try their brunch and take advantage of their awesome daily specials (see tip with pic). Thanks to Shubhi A. for suggesting this charming place. read more

I really liked my recent experience at this Italian cafe. I have tried this place a while back and visited again. It's a casual place with self seating and you order your food and they bring it to your table. You get a number and there is still table service. The food options are modern Italian bistro but they have all the favorites pasta, pizza, panini, salads and entrees. Also espresso station and gelato. Food is all freshly made. Love the pizza dough it's nice and thin and baked to perfection. Ample parking in this plaza with the Longos. Brunch is amazing as well if you're looking for this on the weekends. Overall great Italian food stop in this area. read more

It was fast, FRESH and delicious. Came here for lunch before I went to work with a girlfriend. We got super eager and had bruschetta, cesare salad, gnocchi with pancetta and a pepperoni pizza. We placed the order at the counter with a pleasant worker and took a seat. The food came out maybe 10-15 minutes later? Everything was hot and had amazing flavours. Obviously I was unable to finish it all, so we definitely had a bunch of food to take home (which by the way was still delicious when I heated it up later) I would definitely come back again! read more

Its located very close to my home, so I visit Via Cibo a lot. Its ambiance is very attractive and is good for a date too. They have a limited menu, but each item is well prepared and can be customized a little. Their pizzas are baked to perfection, and taste superb. Pastas & salads are just fine. They have an unique breakfast menu and the weekend brunch menu is something, not to be missed. The fries come topped with grana padano cheese and rosemary, umm... heavenly !!! A must try thing. They have 5$ house wine- both red and white, a wide range of coffees and lattes. Some selection if gelato and desserts. Their Italian sodas are amazing, for 3-4$ They have servers, but they go by pay first option. The staff is really cool. So basically you enter the restaurant by entry gate (separate from exit gate), order your food from the menu on the wall or booklet, then pay for it, you get a number and you get seated. Your order is served at your seat along with water/cutlery. you can hep yourself for any other thing you need like seasoning etc. And they do not ask for tip or even expect it. Although I do tip them, 'coz I feel so :) read more

Wow, what an awesome experience! Ordered via UberEats. Huge portions that don't detract from the quality or taste. Delicious, rich comfort food. I was really just craving a home cooked meal but had no one to cook one for me! Via Cibo fit the bill. Just so warm, comforting and a perfect balance of flavours. The container is a round, recyclable bowl which is a way better eating experience than the plastic black rectangle containers that are so common. I will definitely come back. read more

Via Cibo - Chicken penne deal :) - Italian Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I really liked this place - awesome service, modern decor and yummy food. But then I return home that afternoon with the worst case of food poisoning. I got the Cavolo salad with seared tuna. The tuna did taste a bit off/bland but it had the tastiest salad dressing. I didn't know better. My fiancé got the spicy sausage pizza and his brother got the penne in ragu sauce. Both of them were fine (neither got sick) and really liked their dishes. I had a taste of both - the ragu sauce was so tasty and the pizza dough was exactly the consistency I love - not too thick and chewy! The manager was the sweetest lady too - when I asked to swap out the olives, she allowed me to sub it with other veggie. Initially I subbed it with roasted pepper with dressing on the side - after the staff forgot to leave the dressing the other side, she immediately took back my order and made it from scratch again - second time I also swapped out the lemon ricotta for sweet potato. My salad aside from the seared tuna was extremely yummy. I loved the mixture of pickled onion, roasted pepper and sweet potato. Why tuna why??? The price is a bit steep for a panera bread style Italian eat even with the extremely tasty food and friendly service. certainly not worth the dozens of toilet trips. read more

Italian street food! Nom! Via Cibo serves comforting Italian meals at a somewhat affordable price. It's similar to Chipotle with an Italian flare. Via = Street | Cibo = Food We ordered three items from the "all-day" menu. Cavolo ($5 as a side) The highlight of our meal was the insalate! Bright Tuscan Kale, with Lemon Ricotta, Olives, Fennel, sweet Cipollini Onions, acidic White Balsamic Citrus Vinaigrette! It was a perfectly balanced dish! Pasta Al Pesto ($12.00) Your choice of linguine or penne with Basil Pesto, tossed with Arugula, Sundried Tomatoes with Shaved Grana Padano Cheese! The flavor profile of this dish was great - a hint of bitterness from the arugula, freshness from the basil pesto and sweetness from the sundried tomatoes. It was delightful dish. My only concern was the amount of oil in the dish as the pasta was drenching in oil. Via Casalinga ($14.00) The Via Caslinga pizza consists of Tomato, Casalinga Salami, Sausage, Fior Di Latte and Ricotta Cheese. Another delicious dish from Via Cibo! Again, a very composed dish but slightly on the heavier side. I was full after half a slice. The crust did not hold up well. Perhaps it was steam from the plate restricting it from escaping. The pizza lost the crispness it had. A light char may have enhanced the flavor and texture to the dish. Overall, we were content with Via Cibo! Via Cibo + Pancia = Felice = Happy belly! read more

It's a family friendly place and my daughter likes it so much. The sandwiches and pizza are good and affordable

Great family-friendly, casual resto with no pretensions, just good fresh food at a reasonable price. Some have called it pricey -- but it's good solid cooking with fresh ingredients and it's really no more expensive than many mid-priced Italian restaurants that are way worse. Excellent selection of salads (we love the kale salad and the arugula salad). They aren't over the top crazy with ingredients and they go light on the dressing and cheese, but they're tasty and fresh (again with that word...) We typically order two large-size to share among two adults and a growing boy, and the restaurant has no problem with sharing, in fact they bring us small bowls/plates to make it easier for us. It's not a full-serve resto, so don't expect someone to come and replace the napkin on your lap when you sit down. You have to order and pay at the cash, but a server brings you the food. We've been there on fairly busy weekend nights and service is fast -- and you get to take your drink right away so I'd argue the service is BETTER than a traditional restaurant from that perspective. Good selection of pizzas (which my boy would say is good but not the best in the city) but the pastas are where they really shine. Always delicious! My broccolini & sausage could use a bit more broccolini, but the osso buco ragu is awesome and I'm told the carbonara is decadently cheesy (creamy cheese pastas and I don't get along, so I've never tried it myself). One minor complaint I would have is re the bread -- it's OK, but it's floury white bread. Would love it if they offered something more grainy/interesting. Not much for dessert but the gelato is a nice finishing touch in the summer for those who want to indulge. If you give Via Cibo a try, take note that the servers work hard even though it's not full-service. Remember to drop a tip in the bowl at the cash for them -- it's too easy to slip out without tipping, since you already paid when you ordered. They work hard and deserve something. read more

The whole ordering process is very unique! I loved the feel of the place and how everything is set up! The menu is pretty diverse (in terms of only Italian food! haha). You can order anything from Pasta, Pizza, Insalate and much more! I ended up ordering the Pasta Al Pesto! It was alright. The speed of it was good however, I found it super oily! Like my pasta was legit swimming in a big ol' pool of oil. So that kind of turned me off of it. Now I'm aware pesto has olive oil but like this was way over on the oil front. The flavour was good though! Would I order it again? Probably would try something else! Verdict? I would try this place again for sure- just not that pasta haha. read more

Whenever I had pasta cravings during my pregnancy, this place was my go to. The portions seem small but they are actually really filling! Plus I love their prosciutto pizza. Each pasta comes with a little bun, I think it's sourdough but not 100% sure. It's good but it is a lot of carbs lol. The prices are ok and the dining area is large and spacious (for non-pandemic times). They also have a large selection of gelato. I haven't tried it before tho. Craving Italian and in the area?

Via cibo is an italian restaurant that specializes in italian street food. Came here a few times before but got brunch here for the 1st time with the boyfriend today. Overall solid spot, maybe 1 step below specialty brunch places like emma's country kitchen or lady marmalade, but the great thing is that there's no line-ups! I got the pancetta and sundried tomato frittata and my boyfriend got the prosciutto arugula benedict. The frittata was decent even if a little on the thin side. I could taste the sundried tomatoes a lot more than the pancetta. I also wish there was a little more cheese. The portion size was good and it was reasonably priced. The prosciutto eggs benny was an interesting twist on an old classic, in a good way. The bread was a departure from the classic english muffin. They used their own sourdough bread which was soft and delicious. The salad was quite basic but that's to be expected as a brunch side salad. The hollandaise was decent but didn't stand out. The egg wasn't poached as neatly but the prosciutto and arugula, along with the zest in the hollandaise definitely provided an interesting take on this old classic. Looking forward to trying their tiramisu french toast and blueberry lemon ricotta pancakes! read more

Via Cibo - Egg Benedict - Italian Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

3.5 Pros: Food made to order Prices are pretty good Cons: Food won't wow you My wife found this place while looking for an Italian restaurant to have a dinner with her friends. We would be coming here with 2 other couples and their kids so we decided to give this place a test run with just our own family first. Via Cibo has a upscale feel in a casual setting. You order at the front and the staff brings you your food. Their specialty is Italian street food. We decided to keep it safe and order the basics. It's very kid friendly but the middle table with the really high chairs need to be avoided if you have young kids. There are still enough tables for everyone. If you come in a large group like we plan to later, you are pretty much reduced to one side of the restaurant though so plan accordingly. As I said, we stuck to the basics and got a pasta and pizza. We got something off the kids menu and the Tuscan fries because everyone on Yelp recommended them. We were lucky enough to come on Monday where kids eat free as well! My wife's ragu pasta was pretty good. For most of their pastas, you can only choose between linguine or penne. LIttle strange in my opinion. My wife said it was good, but nothing to write home about. A standard good pasta. My pizza was made with a stone baked oven. I'm pretty sure they're going for a Neapolitan pizza here. The crust is razor thin which is nice. However, they don't char the crust like they should with a thin crust so when you get to the last 2 slices, the crust has no foundation anymore and gets trick to eat in your hands. Also, without the char, you miss out on the balance of taste you should get with the tomato sauce. Again, pretty good, but won't amaze you. To all yelpers though, the Tuscan fries were as good as every one of you has claimed. My daughter could not stop eating them. If the sauce it came with wasn't spicy, she would of devoured that as well! All in all, Via Cibo is a nice little place to come with the family. You'll get a decent Italian meal at a very good price. It won't amaze you, but it will get the job done. read more

Via Cibo - Horribly dry toast with no butter or jam, very plain warm dry salad - Italian Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

These guys are my late-night Uber Eats go-to. I absolutely love their portions' being as incredibly generous as they are flavorful, and typically, I'm a smaller-meal, Buca sort of person. Have so far had linguine, gnocchi, and penne, both pomodoro and in their quirky rosé sauce, which features spinach as well as roasted tomatoes (especially love the latter with penne)--both pastas were cooked al dente; the gnocchi were ample and tender, too. Everything arrives and remains fresh for hours, and I've never once experienced anything less--or more, depending on one's perspective--than thoroughly blissful satiation sans stomach upset, and this despite my GI tract and co. being considerably grumpier than I am. Love the complimentary slice of baguette they append to each order! I'll likely be ordering later today, and honestly, you might want to, too. read more

Popped by on Wednesday evening for a quick bite before checking out the Aga Khan museum which is free on Wednesdays 5-8pm. The place is modernly decorated. I loved the high table seating available. You order at the counter, are given a number, and your food is delivered to your table. On Wednesdays, they have $9 pizzas of 4 varieties. I ordered the grilled veggie pizza. It was 12 inches and the perfect size for my hunger. The pizza was delicious! I was really impressed, particularly of the dough. I would definitely come back for more, especially with the $3 discount on Wednesdays (regular price is $12). read more

I dropped by Via Cibo for dinner last weekend since I was craving Italian. We ordered the Prosciutto Arugula Pizza ($15) which was just ok. The crust was thin which is normally a good thing but not when it gets so soggy that it starts to fall apart. Part of the sogginess could be attributed to the tomato sauce which was really watery. The prosciutto was thinly sliced but could have been more flavourful. The arugula lacked some of the spiciness I've come to expect. The roasted tomatoes added a nice sweetness to the pizza but the seeds were not removed and the juice just added to the sogginess of the crust. I didn't notice any Fiore di latte mozzarella in the pizza but the parmesan did add some flavour. I also would have liked a little more balsamic glaze. All in all, the flavour of the pizza was ok, however, the sogginess of the crust really brought it down to another level. The Poutine with Bolognese ($9) was probably the best dish of the night. The fries were just ok (not crispy enough) but there were lots of cheese curds and the bolognese sauce had a good amount of ground beef in a flavorful tomato sauce. The Gnocchi Gorgonzola ($15) on the other hand was disappointing. On first bite, the gorgonzola cream sauce was really tasty and creamy. However, after a few more bites, it was apparent that the sauce had much more of a garlic flavour than gorgonzola. I also found the sauce extremely rich (probably too much butter). Pancetta, roasted tomatoes green onion and parmasean were also in the dish but their flavours were muted by the overpowering cream sauce. The gnocchi was a little on the heavier side and I found it stuck to my teeth a bit as I was chewing it. Not the best dish in my opinion. Via Cibo is one of those cafeteria style restaurants where you order at the counter and then the dishes are brought out to your table. When I went up to ask if I was at the right counter, the girl looked at me with no smile and said, "It'll be at least a 30 minute wait (with an emphasis on the" least") and then told me I was to order at the register to the right. I was a little taken aback as it seemed she really didn't want me to order and the unsaid message I heard was "eat somewhere else". I decided to stay nonetheless. The cashier who took my order was friendly and really nice though. I've eaten here before and it was good from what I can remember. Hopefully this was just an anomaly since they were so busy tonight. read more
