Exactly what the neighbourhood needed! A modern taste of Italy.
By far the best cafe crema I ever had. Food was excellent, The Parma is a must try if you haven't already. The fresh quality of ingredients really had me enjoying every bite.
I loved the fact that the food was served in platters, rather than plates & the potatoes were served in little garden pots. Just a different way to be trendy.
A really nice ambiance as well, a great place to take your family & friends for a cute day gathering or a fun night out. Either way, you will not be disappointed.
Highly recommend!

Il Giretto has always been our family's go-to spot whenever we want to eat like we're back in Italy, it's truly the best. The food, the atmosphere… it always feels like home.
So when it came time to plan our company Christmas party, there was zero doubt: Il Giretto had to be the place.
From start to finish, everything was exceptional. Junior & his entire team were incredible, so attentive, so welcoming. & the food… INSANE. The quality, the flavors, the presentation…every dish was a full WOW moment.
We were spoiled from the moment we walked in, & our employees couldn't stop talking about how much they loved it!
During our visit, we were captivated by the quality & flavor of their menu. The sandwiches, served on schiacciata bread, strike the perfect balance with a crunchy crust & a soft, pillowy interior.
What impressed us most was the generous stuffing of each sandwich, filled with fresh, vibrant ingredients.
& let's talk about the desserts! The conosfolia, with its delightful layers, paired with the luxurious créma di café, created a match made in heaven; it's a combination that shouldn't be missed.
Absolutely love this place! The food is always amazing & made with the highest quality ingredients. My go-to is the mortadella sandwich it's packed with flavor & never disappoints. Highly recommend!
I was really expecting to eat like a' real Italian canadian' the sandwich was ok, but not wow! 20$ & not worth the quality that was serviced. It was a shocker.
Services was great, the person who served me was sweet, offered the creamé di cafe on the house ( 10/10)
We asked for a cottolette sandwich & we were told that it was a generic sandwich, but than again all the sandwich that we toke (3) was generic & not upscale.
First & last time.

Was there for a birthday dinner, assaggino format was great, quality product's & plentiful, great service & attitude from the young ladies serving us. Will we visit for their sandwiches & desserts. However, my Negroni was slightly off;too much vermouth 😘
If fresh, good quality food is what you're after, then Sapporo Il Giretto is the place for you. They don't cut on quality. Great place for a bite, a coffee, & to watch a sporting event.
