Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews

Bar Vendetta is a charming gem on Dundas with "amazing" service and "delicious" Italian fare. Known for its "incredible" crown cacio e pepe and intimate ambiance, it's perfect for romantic evenings or gatherings. The back patio is a standout, and the menu, though small, is "thoughtfully curated" and seasonally fresh.

Had dinner there. Food is really tasty, we loved the appetizers and the Crown Casio e Pepe, a bit letdown by the spaghetti though. Service is awesome and dishes arrived super fast. Dessert is great as well. I’d recommend this place more for drinks or big parties though, as the noise level is so high you’ll have to shout at other people to understand each other. Drinks + appetizers/small plates seem to be the way to go.

Don’t sleep on the beans, and don’t miss out on the cacio. Everything including the suggested wine was perfection!

Love, love, Loved! Every review I read about this place was spot on. Love the retro vibe, the music selection, the wine, the food. The service! Also the decor just topped it off for me! It’s the kind of place you want to go and tell your friends about it. Also the cocktail bar afterwards is a must!

Incredible experience, as always! The food, the wine selection, the service… I can’t speak highly enough of Bar Vendetta. Definitely my favourite spot in Toronto for Italian delights. The meatballs taste just my Italian grandmother’s; amazing!

Visiting Toronto with a friend and did a quick dinner here before a show - perfect spot for a chill meal. Loved sitting at the bar, service was great. The bitter greens salad was possibly the best restaurant salad I've ever had? Sleeper hit, I know, but truly, you need it. Also the rapini - again, raving about the vegetables at a pasta place - but so perfectly done. Our pastas were also great, the crown cacio e pepe was a cool presentation and the filling was amazing. If I lived in town I'd be posted up at the bar every other week.
