Reviews for Nodo Hillcrest in Toronto, ON
The atmosphere is very nice, and their knocchi was actually very good. Arancini was below expectation. We sat in the back... terrace, and had to wait a long time to order and get our food. In the mean time, we were given free chiabata which I couldbarely eat because it was so cold and hard.. But I understood everything as it's a busy restaurant. However, one thing annoyedme the most was so many giant flies flying around the tables that made me doubt about the sanitary conditions of thisrestaurant. Right after we came back home, we both had stomahache somehow.. I don't want to think it was because of their food,and just hope they take care about the sanitary more. Read more
Nodo is the best kept secret in Toronto. I have probably been 10 times now and I've never had a bad meal. The pastas are all... amazing- cooked to perfection, flavourful sauces, and always served hot. The ceasar salad has roasted corn in it- which isdelicious and the fish and meat dishes are great! It's lovely for an intimate dinner or a big group. YUM. Read more
We visited Nodo for dinner. We called ahead to make reservations but were told they do walk-ins only but it wasn?t a problem as... the restaurant wasn?t busy. From the start, the service was excellent. Everyone, especially our waiter, were very exceedinglyfriendly and prompt with the service. We ordered some zucchini flower daily special and the burrata e piselli as a starter. Theburrata was especially delicious. For mains, we had garganelli cavolfiore gratinato and gnocchi crema tartufata funghi e maispasta dishes to share. They were both pretty good, although I did add some chilli oil to mine. The portion sizes were also goodand me left feeling full. Read more
The place is beautiful, my cheese pizza was delicious, but my husbands carbonara pasta wasn?t tasty at all and still hard. The... arancini and carpaccio were yummy. Read more
Mushroom gnocchi was good. The seafood linguini was gritty. Clean the clams better. Also, the pasta was overcooked. Wut. Al... dente, people. Al dente!!! Read more
We are party of 4 and first time visiting Nodo on a Saturday evening in December 2020. We went there early as they don?t take... reservation at this location. We were warmly welcomed by the hostess and management when we arrived. A friend of us casuallymentioned to the staff that we were there to pre-celebrate her upcoming birthday. We were seated promptly and was greeted by ourserver. Our server was prompt and friendly throughout the evening. The food was really good given the price point. The servicewas warm. We particularly enjoyed the pappardelle with Ragu. We were particularly impressed with the quality of appetizers, wehad Burrata Carpaccio, Cavolo E Cavoletti and Crispy Rice Balls filled with Mozzarella. They were all very delicious! At the endof the meal, we were surprised by the staff with a complimentary tiramisu for our friend who would had her 69th birthday soon! Read more
