Reviews for Fabbrica Thornbury in Thornbury, ON

A great spot for a dinner for two! The seafood platter was perfectly seasoned and the fennel salad was tangy and freshly... prepared. Highly recommend the dessert with fried donuts under a caramel drizzle with Chantilly cream! Read more

Great food, service needs improvement. We dined with a group of freinds last weekend. We had the calamari fritti and it was a... bit too greasy, the ceasar salad was good. Our mains were the salmon which was good and it was served with a fennel salad whichwas amazing. My husband had the lamb and it was also good. We were surprised at the portion sizes because when we hadpreviously been there they were on the small side. This time they were a good portions. We had a couple of issues on theservice side from someone at our table trying to order a bottle of wine, made two selections, neither was in stock, the waiterthen suggested a third and then came back and told him that was also not in stock, but the icing on the cake was when a managercame over and speaking in a raised voice told us that they had been updating their wine list all afternoon, and started gettingmad at our freind. Later the server started clearing all of the plates while I was still eating and then stood beside mewaiting for me to take my last bite so he could take my plate away. For sure I thought they were trying to turn the table overto new guests, but that wasn't the case because when we were leaving there were empty tables. A couple said thank you toone of the employees behind the bar, when they were out of sight, she said to another co-worker "and don't come back". Honestly if you work in the restaurant business, you should like to deal with people. We witnessed three employees here allwith real attitudes. We all agreed that we are not coming back and it's not because of the food. Read more

WOW such an amazing dinner, service was great and attentive even in a busy restaurant. Drinks were fantastic too. Burrata was a... huge standout, super rich and delicious, we were obsessed with the squash puree that was under it, only wish there was more. Andthe dessert was probably the best fritter ever, again super rich but fluffy and really good with the hazelnut gelato. We hadsuch an amazing night, thank you! Read more

Fabbrica is located on the main Street on Thornbury. Owned by American-born Canadian Chef Mark McEwan. My honest review is... based ony personal experience. I thought the decor was lovely and welcoming. The staff who served us, were also welcoming. Weordered: 1. Fritti, a seafood appetizer made of tiger shrimp, baby squid, caper aoili and lemon. The appetizer arrived and wewere not impressed. The presentation was not what we expected, it tasted a bit bland, though soft. It's a 5/10. 2. Capresepizza, a basil pesto base, heirloom tomato, cured tomato, buffalo mozzarella, and pickled shallot. It was delicious. Fresh outthe stone pizza oven. It was soft, hot, and very tasty. The pizza maker needs to wear a hairnet. He has long hair and everytimehe shook his head my anxiety slapped me. All-in-all, this Fabbrica experience was a 5/10. I will say this, their wine optionsare amazing, it's a small binder.???????? Read more

This is our third time to Fabbrica. I doubt we will rush back. My poor rating was a multitude of reasons. Both service... and food quality. It's too bad because the location is great and the patio has a wonderful atmosphere Read more

Making lemonade out of Lemons!! Tonight we were booked for a my wife’s birthday dinner, and at the last minute our... reservation for the patio was canceled due to bad weather. Oh so disappointing… BUT thankfully we were able to secure a spot at the pizza oven bar. I know 1600F… but I will say that this was the BEST seat in the house!!! Fung was spectacular, andmade our night!! We learned so much about different pairings with all of the many dipping sauces that Fung made us try!! Ourserver Courtney provided excellent service and advice on food selection and man she makes an mean Aperol Spritz!!! We also hadgreat attentive service from Ryland (sorry if I spelled it wrong). Good luck with your studies at Algonquin college, andeventually Whistler!!! Finally the FOOD… this was unbelievable!! We started with the famous focaccia, which did notdisappoint, followed by the grilled egg plant parmigiana- DELECTABLE, and the Caesar salad with anchovies, charged corn andheirloom tomatoes that made this rock out of this world! Next we had the gnocchi and short ribs parpadelli.OMG… totally put mein pasta heaven!!! What a night. Great PEOPLE and Great FOOD a deadly combination. We’ll definitely be back. Thank you!!!

Great vibe, even on a Tuesday evening! We sat on the back patio which was super cute and quaint, like you’re in your own... backyard. Heat lamps are scattered around so you can stay out on cooler summer nights. We had the fungi pizza (delish crust!!)and pappardelle with braised short rib and the portions were perfect. They also have daily specials not on the menu. Service wasgreat (thanks Chad) and we look forward to coming back. Read more

We’re pretty much regulars here but it gets better every time! Our server Kaileigh was superb! She took great care of us and... recommended the best meals. The oysters…..I was in heaven!

Will be back!! -Ricky &Caroliin Read more
