I got to try Libretto on Saturday here is my take:
Right as I walked in I was taken aback by the noise level in this place. To be fair it was Saturday evening so most places are bound to be packed.
After putting out name down we were told that there would be a 30 minute wait and our phone number was taken down in case we wanted to walk around. Kudos for that as we wanted to explore the area.
Almost 30 min later we got a call that our table is ready. The table was towards the kitchen and I thought the noise level would be less but alas it was reaching ear splitting level there.
After going through the menu we settled on the Margherita and grilled egg plant and thought we would decide on the dessert later depending on how the main's go. I ordered a pint of steam whistle form the very few offerings they have for beer.
The service was quite good and we were checked on consistently. The Pizzas arrive in about 15 min and looked very nice.
Margherita was top notch. Nice thin crust, strong aroma of basil and right amount of sauce. One of the better Margherita I have had in TO.
Grilled egg plant didn't fare well. The crust was soggy and the sauce was watery. Perhaps it needed 100 second to finish rather than the usual 90 ;) Chilli flakes left a more black pepper like finish which is puzzling.
On to dessert we ordered a Lemon Panna Cotta and Chocolate Affogato. I didn't try the Panna Cotta but did enjoy my Affogato.
All said and done a decent 3.5 star.
