The Best Patios for Italian Fare

We have compiled the best patios for Italian food in Toronto, and on this list, you will be sure to find at least one restaurant in or near your neighbourhood. Toronto has an abundance of delicious Italian food. Although some of our favourite Italian restaurants are not yet ready to open, many have successfully operated their restaurants safely outdoors. In Ontario and specifically Toronto, dining out looks very different than it did five months ago. The city is adapting to the new norm of dining on patios. If patrons want the dine-in restaurant experience, they have to head to restaurants with open patios, which often includes make-shift seating on sidewalks, alleyways and parking lots. Torontonians are eager to eat out at their favourite spots, and chefs around the city are happy to serve and start doing what they do best, cooking for their customers and serving them in house.

This list has classic Toronto staples like Terroni -- with numerous locations spread around the city and smaller quaint Italian restaurants like Terrazza on Harbord Street or Trattoria Taverniti in the heart of Little Italy. If you are a fan of Italian food and are looking for a place to go to for a celebratory dinner, a casual weeknight treat or curb your pasta craving once and for all, check out this list. If you are not a pasta person, this list can still help you out if you are looking for restaurants with a large selection of wines, fresh and aged cheeses, perfectly grilled meats and seafood and an astonishing combination of toppings on wood fire pizzas. Check out the best patios for Italian fare.
