Ristorante Boccaccio was originally launched in 1980 when the Columbus Centre opened, and since that time it has been regarded as one of the best destinations for authentic Italian cuisine in Toronto.
Hailed as a “hidden gem inside a community centre” (Toronto Star, March 2016), over the past four decades Boccaccio has welcomed everyone from celebrities and dignitaries to Italian families and the community at large.
Conveniently located in the centre of the city at Lawrence and Dufferin Street, it offers a variety of expertly prepared Italian favourites. Now, Ristorante Boccaccio comes back to life through the energy and talent of two young chefs: Chef Luciano Schipano and Chef Anthony Sestito. Both Chefs are well-known in Toronto for their high-quality service and for cooking with authenticity and respect for their ingredients, to serve the most delicious and fresh food.
