Fantastic food, Fantastic servers & Fantastic ambience.
This is one of my favorite local restaurants. We just had a group of 9 in and had an amazing experience. Excellent service from our waiter. The food was great (as always) and timed perfectly for the large group. Thank you for a great evening! I will continue to be back and you gained a few new fans tonight!... More

If you want a great night to go to Toscana, I highly recommend a Tuesday! Its a quieter night,no one is rushing you to order, you can sip on your wine and watch whatever sport on one of many TVs. Tonight's pasta special was a pear and blue cheese stuffed raviola. It came in a velvet sauce with a generous number of perfectly cooked shrimp and smoky bacon.

If you want a great night to go to Toscana, I highly recommend a Tuesday! Its a quieter night,no one is rushing you to order, you can sip on your wine and watch whatever sport on one of many TVs. Tonight's pasta special was a pear and blue cheese stuffed raviola. It came in a velvet sauce with a generous number of perfectly cooked shrimp and smoky bacon. Gabriel didn't hesitate to bring me some additional gorgonzola and pass along our appreciation to Chef. So go on Tuesday, try one if the specials and let the Chef and staff spoil you! Less

The food came after about 25 minutes so we were quite hungry but unfortunately the food was only subpar.

I myself didn’t enjoy my meal as it didn’t meet my expectations for a well-known Italian restaurant. Won’t be recommending or coming back! Less
Great food and great service! The veal chop was amazing yum
Really fantastic place over all. Great service - friendly, patient and attentive! Decent prices. Amazing food. Everyone raved about their dishes. I could have eaten that dish 4x over. So delicious! Appies were tasty. And wine was half off if over $50 or $25/bottle if under 50. Delicious wine as well. I wish I lived closer now!... More

Just my opinion, but I thought the scallops were a little pricey for what you get, but the pizza was very good
Consistently great food! The staff make you feel like you are part of the family.

We made a reservation a week earlier and we're anticipating a good Italian meal. We get seated and informed that it's a fixed menu this evening and almost zero choices for Italian food. Ordered surf and turf, steak was ok but the two skewers of shrimp were overcooked and cold. I will say the service was really good,.our server made the evening somewhat salvageable. For 59.00 a plate I would have expected much better. Less

My favourite pasta place in Calgary. And my favorite waiter Is Brent. The tiramisu is a must have!
My wife said the spaghetti was one of the best pastas she's had in a long time. That and the tastey pizza made a nice combo!
The food was delicious, the service was fast and friendly, and the menu showed a wide variety of options.

Can’t just call and order for pickup. What a joke. How hard is it. Stunned
Slow service, my dish was delivered 5 minutes after everyone else's at the table without any comment. And it was ok.

This is a response to Jeannette and Brian Nauss and thier one star reviews. Writing reviews can definitely help and teach a business where its faults lie . To of course make positive changes going forward. As far as the sad and dishonest one star attempt to hurt such business. ( Most notable the Nauss reviews) This is a tale of exaggerated story telling and lies about their experience. An attempt to eat for free , after searching for one little issue. By doing so , trying to hurt a family owned restaurant. This little business just survived 3 government shut downs. With support from our faithful costumers and Toscana team. We made it through those tough times . Believe me when I tell you. Your little 1 star nonsense will not put a dent in this armor. After 10 years I want to thank our loyal guests, regulars and family/staff for years of support. For all those that write fair and helpful reviews. Thank you for doing so and can't wait to see you again 🙂 Less

There wasn't one thing about our last experience with Toscana that was acceptable. The food was terrible and overpriced. The Spaghetti Pomodoro barely had any sauce to the point that it was crusty- absolutely bland.

There wasn't one thing about our last experience with Toscana that was acceptable. The food was terrible and overpriced. The Spaghetti Pomodoro barely had any sauce to the point that it was crusty- absolutely bland. I added meatballs for extra $$ which looked like they were picked up from the frozen section of the grocery store. The cream in the Carbonara smelled bad and the cream in the Tiramisu smelled rotten. The extra items we added to the Risotto and paid extra for didn't make it in there. The sad thing about this is that we are a few nurses who ordered while at work on our break in the middle of an extremely busy shift. Forced to eat this disappointing food as we were starved and knew we wouldn't get another break to eat. The kicker was that 3/4 of us got ILL while the 4th had severe cramping. Now the customer service- We called Toscana right away and spoke to a closing manager who was not very helpful. Regardless, he at least took my contact info down and told me I would be contacted by the Manager. 4 days later, I received no such phone call so I phone again. Then ensued the most frustrating conversation with a manager named Hector. He spoke over me and interrupted me the entire time, refused to provide a refund, and offered a store credit which covered a portion of the bill, which he thought was very generous (crazy - as if we would want to eat there after having to run to the bathroom several times while at work). (of note- he did admit that it was likely the Tiramisu that got us sick but still refused to address this situation appropriately). I can't imagine any restaurant that would fathom to charge this much and treat their customers this badly. He made sure to mention the high rating of this restaurant and boldly claimed that they don't receive complaints, after reviewing the Google reviews on this page, I can see that it is a lie. Lesson learned, this won't be a place I'll ever visit again and will be spreading the word about the worst Italian food, which got us sick, AND had the worst customer service, ever. ADDENDUM: In response to Toscana's pathetic replies to mine and other's poor reviews and photos of the vile food- I'd rather eat garbage and get violently ill than put myself through that again. Less

The staff was friendly and fairly attentive. I ordered the Cioppino with some garlic toast qnd my dqughter had the Ravioli con aragosta. The Cioppino was mostly vegetables, two small shrimp, 2 small mussels and some chunks of fish. The broth was pretty basic. I think the cost was $19. Now the only other time i have had Cioppino was at Cioppino's in San Francisco where the dish originated from and the seafood was most likely caught that day so there is really no way to compare the two but it's really not a fair representation of what dish truly should be. Oh and the garlic toast was quite soggy. I tried some of my daughter's ravioli. The pasta was cooked right and filling was good. I'm not crazy about cream heavy sauces so I won't say anything about that as it was a sun-dried tomato cream sauce. I don't think I will be returning again. All in all if you are looking for an inexpensive place to go for italian food I think Chianti's is of the same quality but you spend less and if you're looking for really good italian food spend the money and go to Mercado. My advice to any restaurants really would be to look at what you're serving and look at somewhere that pioneered it or does it really well and look at how your stuff stacks up against it. Less
Had one of their pizzas and loved it! Even the crust was delicious 😋 I would go again!
Excellent food, good atmosphere, great music

Best Italian we have had in years. Very nice staff.

Service was fantastic food was very average. Calamari undercooked not crispy like advertised. Creme brulee tasted like cream
Just wanted a nice Italian meal with my family after work on a Friday afternoon. Ordered The Chicken alfredo pasta and found a piece of foil in my food. Paper foil. Yup. Hopefully I won't be intoxicated or poisoned. Not good when you're trying to support local businesses after the lock down aaand the quality is this... never coming back.... More

Always such great food, staff and atmosphere! Highly recommend the pizza and gelato!
Great place for Italian food!
Hands down the best Pasta in town and a great wine and cocktail collection. The Bruschetta is a perfect 10 and they take the time to perfect any substitutions so you have the finest culinary experience.

I finally convinced my partner to order Italian food from a decent restaurant! Something about Toscana made me think that I was going to get something really special ordering here, and we absolutely did! We had the garlic bread, roasted jalapeno, crab and lobster ravioli, and cheese and spinach manicotti. The pasta was absolutely a 10/10, delicious flavors, more traditional Italian than I have eaten in Calgary yet! Can't wait until the circumstances around the pandemic are over so we can actually dine in. Their selection of wines and beers looked mouthwatering. They have a 15% discount right now for pickup so it's super affordable! Give it a try for some of the best Italian in Calgary! Do NOT even compare this to OG or BP! Less
Best Italian food in Calgary
Toscana usually is in our good books, but not today. Just ordered a pizza and arcini. We picked up the order and arrived 5 minutes before the pick up time (30 minutes from ordering).

Toscana usually is in our good books, but not today. Just ordered a pizza and arcini. We picked up the order and arrived 5 minutes before the pick up time (30 minutes from ordering). The worker was too concerned about watching the hockey game and wasn't paying attention that I had walked in. Noticed our order was sitting and ready on the counter when about 5 minutes later someone else from the kitchen had to help with my order. Could feel through the pizza box that the order had most likely been sitting there for a while since it wasn't warm. If the order will be made quickly, then the pick up time should be sooner and adjusted. We are now at home reheating the pizza in our own oven since the cheese had hardened almost like it was day old pizza cheese (and we don't live far from the establishment). The flavours are excellent and very tasty, just unfortunate we got our order "on time" and it was pretty much cold. Arcini was ok, warm but not hot. Less

Absolutely excellent food and service Beyond amazing 2 thumbs up 👍👍
Delicious food at affordable prices! Highly recommend the calamari. Will be coming back here with my family again :)
Food and staff are amazing!!! Felt more like I was treated like family than a customer

I ordered this on skip.. the sight of it churned my stomach. You'd think that if you pay 50 dollars for 2 pieces of lasagna that it would actually be good? They state "homestyle" lasagna.

Authentic Italian cuisine and welcoming staff whom went above and beyond. Our server's recommendations on adding scallops to my mushroom rozoto had to be noted, (thanks luv) even returned to confirm cost differance, It was superb! My date had a tiger prawn dish, unfortunately they were not tiger prawns but had additional larger style added in place. Our peppermint patties were wonderfully made. With a little strawberry garnish and sugared rim. Tiramisu was tasty, lightly dusted with coco and fresh whipping cream. Our bill will was on par, if not less then a typical chain style restaurant. Comparison to Red lobster or moxies. Just remember folks fresh, high quality food like this, doesn't travel well as take out. It's cooked to perfection. Go in! get a truly wonderful meal with a touch of genuine European experience. 2 days later and we're still very happy. Making it a new regular for sure! Thank you Tuscana for unknowingly making my 41st birthday a truly wonderful experience and restoring my faith in tremendously well made food in Calgary. Less

My Spouse and I went to Toscana Italian Grill earlier tonight and were absolutely blown away by the food and service. We were celebrating a post Valentines day dinner as I also work in the hospitality industry. Our server was a very wonderful lady named Addy( I think...) and we had a great time laughing with her. A very pleasant server with a wonderful energy. The table next to us had a server named Chris that he very kindly mentioned that the restaurant was a bit behind ideal schedule and let them know he was there for whatever they needed in the mean time. While my spouse and I waited for our entrées the owner Hector came by to our table and spoke about how the weekend was and how the restaurant has been recently. The conversations were very genuine and refreshing. It reminded me of time pre-Covid with wonderful food and drinks. If you're craving quality Italian food with a great atmosphere id recommend this place. Also, shootout to Jo the bartender for being funny right from the beginning . Less

We ordered the valentine's meal for two ($98, $49 each plate) for pickup on February 13th. It was a surf and turf meal, steak and scampi with some potato wedges, butternut squash ravioli, salad and for dessert baklava and cheesecake. The food was overall decent but the portions for the price was very disappointing. The steaks well perfectly cooked were about the size of a small mandarin orange. The scampi (4 each) were overcooked and rubbery. The butternut squash ravioli (4 each) were actually amazing. The potatoe wedges (3 each!?) were bland and soggy. There was 2 slices of yellow pepper each, a few carrots and 1 piece of broccoli to split. The salad was plentiful and fresh and sadly the star of the meal. The desert of 3 pieces of baklava and 1 slice of cheesecake was very good but I doubt house made. Overall, learned our lesson and paid $100 for $60 worth of food on a good day. Less

There's a hundred places to order pasta from in Calgary, and they're all decent, however, this one HIT THE SPOT. The lobster & crab ravioli is phenomenal. If I have one complaint it's that the portion size is a bit on the small side - I was enjoying this pasta so much that I was a bit sad there wasn't a little more. The tiramisu is also fantastic and tasted really fresh. Ordering tiramisu as take-out in general can be disappointing depending on what style of tiramisu is served and how it's packaged for transport but these guys nailed it. Less
Every. Single. Time we get food from here it is ridiculously good!
Greate Food just waiting time is more than expected given by staff
This is my second time ordering from this restaurant. I'm annoyed that I paid $26 dollars for a pasta, which I paid for extra shrimp and only got 4. You didn't even take the tails off the shrimp, pasta isn't finger food! Annoyed I had to use my fingers to pull off the tails. For a $26 dollar pasta you'd expect more.

A birthday to remember!!!... for all the wrong reasons. We recently dined at toscana for dinner during covid, and to say the least, the experience wasnt very good. They have barriers in place and follow protocol which is great, the service is just ok, but the food and ambiance is what brings the rating down. Upon arriving, we were seated promptly then passed off to our server. We opted for the appetizer platter to start. The calamari was very good, but that's about it. The meatballs were not hot, just slightly warm and the arancini were terrible. We cut into the arancini, and the smell was extremely off putting. In fact, I'm 99% they were spoiled as they had a sour funk smell. We left them on the platter. The server came to remove the platter and didnt even inquire as to how anything tasted, or why the arancini wasnt eaten... not good. In fact throughout the whole meal, not one single time did anyone come to check on how anything was. Had someone asked, we would have mentioned something so they could prevent the kitchen from serving spoiled food, but sadly they did not... if they dont care, why should we? We then ordered our entrees and patiently waited. After ordering, we noticed a board in the other room across the restaurant with daily features. They had what looked like a super tasty appetizer feature and a surf and turf entree. Why were we not informed about these daily features?! I would have ordered both in a heart beat! My pasta was ok. I wouldnt order it again, nor would I recommend it, it was edible. I had the seafood pasta. The four Mussels in the pasta were over cooked to the point they were shriveled and dry. Only about three shrimp and about 4 pieces of canned clam meat. The salmon in the pasta is a terrible addition and clearly a use for trim from the salmon entree... rough chopped, with grey pieces from where the skin used to be attached. Very unappealing, I didn't eat it... again, the server did not inquire as to how anything was... he just removed the plates. Though the food was bad, the server was nice, but clearly they put more emphasis on their bar. At points it almost felt like we were at a pub. Random individuals sitting at the bar, loud joking amongst staff, sports on the television. This is NOT the place for a nice evening out. If the owner wants to run a pub, than run a pub, dont try to masquerade it with an italian restaurant. That being said, with emphasis on their bar, their drinks weren't anything to write home about either. My wife asked for a sweet fruity cocktail and got something reminiscent of an 18 year old club drink loaded with blue curacao, and my old fashioned has to be in the category of top 3 worst old fashioneds I've ever had. I took two sips then left it, again, the server did not inquire as to why it wasnt drank. All that being said, though the staff were very nice, I didnt go out for the people, I went out for a nice dinner and some cocktails. It's a shame, we would have probably ordered dessert and plenty more drinks had any of it been good. Less

For our mains - I had the gnocchi in the pepper cream sauce & Hubby had the quattro carni pizza! Wow! The portions were quite generous! Hubby said the sausage in his pizza was extra tasty, & my gnocchi was perfect - fluffy & not super chewy or gummy. We saved room for dessert and I had the tiramisu & hubby had the creme brûlée. Hubby liked his crepe brûlée & my tiramisu was amazing & like my main, it was a generous portion. I’d also like to give a shout-out to their espresso....so good. I find that it’s hard to find good espresso in this city, but Toscana has some...plus a little piece of biscotti, like they do in Europe! All in all, a great dinner - we’ll be returning. Less

Beautiful atmosphere and delicious food. Service was excellent. While my wife and I were enjoying a delicious meal, we caught the owner bring in a needy person from outside. At first we were not too sure what to expect, later i noticed he took him to the back and sat him down. The owner went to the kitchen and placed an order for this gentlemen on the house, in which my wife and I heard. He fed a gentleman who was going around outside and looking for cans/bottles, just minding his own business. I truly respect this this owner, during these times, these are the types of people you need in the world. This owner took it upon himself to do a good deed un noticed not realizing that it was, not needing to make a video or post anything on social media to get attention. This is just something that I wanted to mention on the side. Overall as mentioned great food, was recommended by a friend and work and will definitely continue to come back. Less
Absolutely fabulous! I took my boyfriend here for his birthday dinner, and they did not disappoint. We had the arancini for an appetizer, quite possibly the best in town. I had then gnocchi and he had the tortellini, ALL so delicious!! This restaurant is nice and clean and has a welcoming vibe.

The staff were super friendly and attentive. We ordered the Arancini to start, followed by Tortellini Al Forno and Pescatore. No complaints about the price or quality. The loss of the 1 star comes from the Arancini. We both found it to be very bland. We were told that there was a chef transition.

Love going here, love the pizza & pasta! can’t wait to try more on the menu
The food here is phenomenal. Never ceases to amaze me.
Food was surprisingly good. Nice ambiance and good service. Worth a try if you like Italian cuisine.
Amazing food every time
Great food and deserts were delicious. Nice service. Thanks was a nice birthday party for two of my family. They loved the food and desert.
Great service!
I hate to put a not so good review because all of the other reviews were so great. I was really hoping I’d like the pasta, but I just didn’t :(. I got the Linguine Pescatore with the white wine sauce and linguini pasta. It was just so salty, I could barely eat it! I mean maybe I’m just sensitive to salt, I don’t know.

Crab stuffed ravioli was amazing and such great staff

The order arrived and the pasta was piping hot, which is impressive because I'm a 10 minute drive away, and deliscious. The garlic bread had nice grill marks and tasted great. In addition they incuded half a dozen cream puffs drizzled in chocolate sauce. Since this is not a menu item, I am assuming this is standard for them. Even so it was a nice surprise. I'm looking forward to trying more of their menu items in the future. Less

I rarely write reviews, but our visit to Toscana this past Saturday evening definitely deserves a review. We received the best service from Kaitlin who went to great lengths to clarify the menu and made excellent recommendations on the starters and the mains, and whose bubbly and friendly personality was evident even from behind a mask. We could tell that it's important for her that her customers are satisfied. For someone who is not big on seafood (due to past bad experiences) I can highly recommend the calamari fritti as an appetizer - so fresh and a big portion; and the ravioli aragosta (lobster & crab ravioli) which has just the best flavour combinations and isn't too creamy or heavy. My partner was raving about his catch of the day which was haddock on a bed of risotto. I also loved the fact that despite being fairly busy, we received our cocktails within about 10 minutes. Even though we live on the other side of town, we will be back regularly! Less
Good food and great staff!
Awesome food and great service!
The best Lasagna & best Fettuccine Alfredo we’ve ever had!!! If I could say any negative, some bread with the pasta would’ve been a nice addition.
The food is positively amazing. The staff is attentive and willing to describe/explain anything to help you. Enjoy the food and ambience.

Well cooked! Fresh! Perfect portion. Lots of bacon! Haha always a treat! Fresh focaccia! Yum! A few thoughtful visits from the owner and service as I stayed for a while. Patio isn’t loud. Chairs are comfortable. Sit, visit, drink, eat, visit more. How much better could it be? 5 stars and a sincere thank you for hosting me! I’ll be back! Less

Picked up a pizza to try. Good experience with friendly staff however they missed on the pizza quality for us. The dough did not come out Neopolitan/rustic style as expected, was slightly “fried” at the crust edge/below, very light on the sauce and we found the pizza too salty.

NEVER AGAIN! Ordered for pick up, specifically said the linguine Alfredo to be vegetarian, ate about 1/8th of the pasta, then noticed my stomach began to feel very uneasy. Decided I would package it up & eat later, then I saw what looked like meat. My hubby who eats meat, tasted the pieces which were about the size of a quarter, said it's either chicken or pork. For someone who has not ingested animal flesh for over 20 years, this is not ok. I got violently ill and will never return to this establishment. Either the menu is incorrect and this dish has meat but it's not listed (doubtful) or they are sloppy with total disregard for cross contamination. Less

Average Italian food, waiter tried to overcharge our family and blamed us for putting our order in incorrectly (and did not bother to correct his mistake - thank you for serving us food we didn’t want and making us pay $34 for it). Waiter was extremely arrogant after his mistake, and then continued to attempt to overcharge and once again blame us for not specifying that the 3 pasta dishes we ordered were part of the 3 for 39 deal the host told us about. He told us that we “got a deal” and that there had to have been some miscommunication even though he was the one who had given us incorrect information. Overall: decent food if you can stand the arrogance in place of service we received - he did at least keep our water glasses full. It’s unfortunate that a local restaurant with decent food is represented by a server with such a negative attitude and no customer service skills. I have had more positive customer service experiences at fast food restaurants, and my family is extremely disappointed as we had heard this was one of the best Italian places in Calgary. Also to note - I would not be posting a negative review had the waiter fixed his mistake by fixing the dish my family member ordered. I was absolutely bewildered at his lack of attention to the problem (she has no interest in spaghetti as she is celiac and gluten free - hence why she would order a dish with vegetables and potato as a side). He did not notice when the pasta side sat untouched on her plate, and the fact that we paid $34 for a small portion of fish with the wrong side dishes is abhorrent. Management needs to work on the service as you are missing out on future customers by using individuals like these as the face of your restaurant! :( Less

Traditional Italian cuisine....Amazing flavors and staff.
Excellent place for dining
Excellent food and great presentation ! Definetly one of my new favorite places to go.
Good service, great food. Carbonara was awesome. Only complaint would be that the area of the restaurant we were in was very loud.
Great place to have good with family and friends.
Nice place, good food, great service.

The best Italian restaurant in Calgary!

Great restaurant and service. Good music at a volume that you can clearly hear the people you want to talk with :)
Nice rose sauce. Good portions.
Try the Sunday night family style pasta special.
Excellent seafood risotto!
Great food and quiet environment!!
Always a great meal. Food is excellent, and reasonably priced.

The food was decent. The service was meh. I'm actually more annoyed from the wine. I ordered the Chilean merlot.

WARNING- RANDOM BRIGHT BLUE SUBSTANCE FOUND IN FOOD AND THEY HAD NO IDEA WHAT IT WAS. Hands down the worst restaurant we have been to in Calgary. We ordered two appetizers, Parmesan truffle fries and arancini. The order of fries was a tiny cup of soggy fries with no truffle flavour whatsoever- whatever, we were starving. The arancini came with two on the plate, seemed small but again, whatever, we ate them. They weren't very good and we did not think they tasted fresh but continued on. A random waitress came back to us with one more arancini on a different plate and said sorry they forgot one so I thought I'd bring it out. Alright then? Pretty sure they also forgot half the fries. We cut this arancini open and the inside is filled with a BRIGHT BLUE jelly like substance. We debated what it was, my spouse thinking it was blue cheese was eating around it. I asked the waiter if these had blue cheese in them (the first two didn't and it didn't specify it on the menu) and he gave us the weirdest answer of "huh people on the weekend asked that too, let me go check..." as if he didn't know? He comes back from the kitchen a while later and takes the plate with the blue stuff back saying they aren't sure what it is but it shouldn't be there. Our entrees show up and we're starving still but pretty hesitant to eat at this point. He comes back again and says someone else will be out to talk to us. Someone else, probably the manager, comes out and apologizes to us saying there shouldn't have been something blue in it and they are trying to figure out what it is. Absolutely disgusting!!! We are not feeling well and no doubt were eating something that should not have been eaten. How a restaurant was serving these and had no idea what was in them is beyond me. Had they been able to say I'm sorry "blank food" got into the risotto, we would maybe have been okay, but the fact that they did not know what it was and it did not appear to be any type of edible food was absolutely unacceptable. I also brought up the fact that it was gross they were still serving the same arancini on Wednesday that they were on the weekend...makes sense why they didn't taste fresh! He didn't really have a response for this and offered something else off the menu if we wanted. We were so grossed out we just left...need to report for a public health inspection and would recommend not eating anything coming out of that kitchen! [they had taken away the main plate with most of the blue stuff at this point, but here is a photo of some that was scraped on to a side plate] Less

Used to be decent. I'd had anniversary dinners here in the past. But the place is under new management or something now? Staff needs SERIOUS training on the SkipTheDishes ordering system. I offered them every piece of information they could want to prove we were the people who ordered the food, but they refused to hand over our order and told me to leave or they'd call the cops despite it having been paid for before I came to get it. Once they had it in their head I could be trying to steal an order, there was no convincing them otherwise no matter how much I offered to show them my license with my name on it, let them talk to the CC holder, and GOD FORBID I get frustrated at being treated like a thief by a thief.... They seem to very much function on a "customer is always wrong" principle here, and I'll spend the rest of my time in Calgary warning people away from this place by any means necessary. Edit: See? Look at that response. It takes no responsibility whatsoever. That's not an actual Skip policy, I DID get on the phone and confirm the order number was exactly what he had in his hand, and he completely ignores that my complaint was with how I was treated. You couldn't ask for a better confirmation of every point here. Less

HONEST REVIEW: not bribed by the $25 gift card at the bottom of the receipt. Honestly very inconsistent. Went once it was good enough for us to come back, but the second time was such a disappointment that we were not going to come back. We ordered the same items on the second visit and had much different portion sizes and quality of meat. The sides were served cold and staff was resistant to hearing our concern. We ended up explaining the above information and they provided us with a gift card (forcing us to come back to this less than desirable eating experience). Upon the third and final visit everything seemed off. The staff took a very long time to attend our table, and missed getting our drink order twice (decided not to complain the second time for the sake of understanding how loud it was inside) and this time were left with a very bland entre for all, hoping that an Italian restaurant would have good Italian food (ordered a pizza that was no better than little Cesar's hot and ready, and a lasaunia that could have been better from the frozen section at Safeway). Not interested in coming again and normally wouldn't write a review but it was a triple threat: bad food, unattentive service, and expensive. Less

Toscana Italian Grill. Long review, trust me - read it. I had won a contest online Facebook for a $50 gift card that they said must be redeemed the same night as the Flames Game (which was ok) my boyfriend and I were looking forward to an impromptu last minute date! We’ve driven past this establishment many times and wanted to try it anyways, so we did not mind having a 5 hour notice to claim (before they close at 10pm) It was fairly empty when we arrived at 8:30, we could not sit in the dining area as the $50 gift card coupon stated “lounge only”. At first it was pleasant, though as soon as I told my server about the gift card I won, I felt we were treated differently. The “bruschetta” was only 4 very thin slices of baguette bread.. The rest of the table’s party beside us joined and they were three extremely loud ladies (come to find out this was they were joining the actual “owner”. Our food comes - I ordered a spaghetti add the meatballs for extra (there was no spaghetti with meatball option) which was disappointing My boyfriend ordered the Atlantic Salmon on a bed of parmesan risotto. On top of the salmon came some bruschetta looking pico de gallo which made the salmon soggy, Salmon itself was flavourless, and tasting the risotto, it was also flavourless. No parmesan, just tasted like rice that released it’s starches as risotto does. My spaghetti was nothing to write home about, al dente pasta - good, Sauce - lacked seasoning, Meatballs - tasted exactly like Walmart’s Great Value brand. Not homemade. I was also not offered any parmesan for topping my spaghetti off - no salt or pepper on tables either. Our service was okay, not overly great and got worse as we wanted to pay the bill and leave. I was given the bill with two “$25 gift cards”. Our server stood at the table next to us (owners table) for about ten minutes chatting and talking and looking at photos on this lady’s phone then to the other side of the table to chat with the owner - as I had my card out - ready to pay. I took a photo I was in disbelief. Upon finally swinging by with the monaris, we were informed we were only allowed to use one of the two $25 gift cards (HA!) I knew this would happen. Nothing was mentioned at all about separate gift cards, it was always stated as a $50 gift card that HAD to be redeemed that same night. Otherwise I never would have come. Honestly, I’m glad I had that gift card because I don’t even think the $28 I paid was worth the food, experience or the audacity of trying to pull the rug out from under us once we tried to pay. I Expected more Italian feel from an Italian Grill - all we got was stand-offish attitudes, and mediocre Italian eats. East Side Marios is generic but at least they treat you nicely and give you a more authentic italian experience. Bottom line - was not worth it. I can make both dishes better myself. Will not return.

Always love the food and the service is so personable! What a delightful feast we had. I could actually taste the ribs from being masterfully flavored with just as crafty tenderizing on the juicy inside and a perfectly crisp brazing on the outside, rather than being smothered with sauce.

Always love the food and the service is so personable! What a delightful feast we had. I could actually taste the ribs from being masterfully flavored with just as crafty tenderizing on the juicy inside and a perfectly crisp brazing on the outside, rather than being smothered with sauce. Magnificent, heavenly desserts, not too sweet and very light and tempting, we ordered 3 because we couldn't decide. Even the takeout containers provided are a classy little box instead of toxic styrofoam. Great job Toscana's!! Less
This place is great. Been there twice, love the food and service. Will definatly be back again.

The service was excellent (I wish I could remember the servers name. He was serving the section near the south windows) Our server did a fantastic job on everything. Kudos to the chef as all of the food was outstanding! Loved just about everything of our experience except that the sign out front said it was happy hour until 6, and we were told there was no happy hour even though it was 530. I'm assuming it was because it was new years eve? Maybe they could have taken the sign down or made a note on the sign about it. Other than that, we had a great experience👏 We'll be back! 😊 Less

Great food, great atmosphere ... can't fault this place. The main courses are amazing the deserts are better :)
Very polite staff. Were very helpful when some problems came up with my order and made sure it never happened again.
Most of the food was good with an exception of one pasta dish. It lacked flavour. The service was good.
Amazing staff, food was absolutely awesome

Since moving back to Calgary and driving by Toscana several times, we've been wanting to check it out for awhile. Today we decided to pop in for lunch.

Since moving back to Calgary and driving by Toscana several times, we've been wanting to check it out for awhile. Today we decided to pop in for lunch. We started with an order of cheese toast and an order of the focaccia and balsamic/oil. The cheese toast was fine, pretty standard, but decently cheesy The focaccia, however, was disappointing. The bread itself didn't feel a whole lot different from simple toasted wonderbread, the oil was largely flavorless and the balsamic skewed heavy towards the sweet end of the spectrum, which isn't what we're looking for with bread. Give us that acidic vinegar bite any day. If you like it sweet, you'll like it, but you'll still be disappointed in the focaccia, especially when a lot of other Italian restaurants in the city will give you better bread and vinegar without a charge. I went with the meatball sandwich lunch special, and my partner had the chicken Parm sandwich special. Both of us opted for an upgrade to the parmesan truffle fries. The meatball sandwich was good, but a little insubstantial and boring. The chicken parm was a more voluminous sandwich and the definite superior of the two. The parmesan truffle fries, though? 100% a disappointment. The fries themselves were either undercooked or soggy all the was through the pile, and managed to be entirely unsalted, despite the parmesan. Definitely not worth the upcharge of $3 per plate. Based on the semi-decent sandwiches and cheese toast, we aren't ready to entirely write Toscana's off, and will come back to try their pasta, but it's not leaving anything but a low to middling first impression out of the gate. All the above came to $51 before tax and tip. (Fountain pop might have been free refills, but I'm not sure. At $3.25 each I hope so.) Less

We ordered our food at 6:15 and the entrees didn’t arrive until 7:50 :( thank god we ordered an appetizer so we had something to eat while we waited forever (it seemed). Our server was apologetic but it took a few requests before she sent the manager over to speak about the ridiculous delay. He came over and explained that they had a lot of new people in the kitchen and offered to get us some desert on the house but with how late it was (8pm) we were out of time with our young kids. In the end they did discount our bill by 30% but with the amount of options we have in Calgary we’ll probably just go elsewhere now. Less

Hmmm...well after being optimistic, we left disappointed. This place is really "level" competition to East Side Mario's but with much higher prices. Anyway... Came in for my wife's birthday with the family. Quickly observed that they looked short staffed but gave it the benefit of the doubt. Started off with a couple of appetizers (won't really bother with Italian names for menu items) and had both the prawns and the caprese salad. Both were decent and tasty. That's really where the quality ended. My wife ordered a white wine veal dish for her main course. Although the veal was okay, it came without veggies and was lumped with a pile of spaghetti polodomo (tomato sauce). Presentation was awful, the type of pasta was out of place for this dish and shouldn't have been paired together. I ordered the tortellini pasta. What a joke and a big mistake. This is a dish that should be removed from their menu if they want to continue and "try" to represent "quality" Italian food. It was literally boiled packaged "fake" tortellini and baked in a bland sauce - just terrible! My one son ordered a pasta that was supposed to be different than typical "penne" pasta but received regular penne. Upon trying to return it, it came back with the server claiming "it was made before she was notified that the original pasta was not available". Oh okay - no offer to discount or remove from the bill at the very least. Ordered a Limencello after dinner, it never came but was still on the bill. Really? An overall disappointing experience for the most part. Likely won't be back. Less
Pretty good American-style "Italian" food. Think Olive Garden rather than actual Tuscan food.

Came in here on a whim one night, and I am glad that I did. The food was surprisingly delicious, but I'll admit my expectations were not high.

Came in here on a whim one night, and I am glad that I did. The food was surprisingly delicious, but I'll admit my expectations were not high. The menu at first glance feels a little bit overpriced, but once you get the dish itself you realize why. The portion sizes here are quite large, but with grit and determination one should be able to finish it all in one sitting. However if you do not feel like being such a gourmand, the dishes are big enough to be split by two people. Order multiples and share them family style with your table. I had the arancini to start, which was good but a little bit underseasoned and I was looking for a little bit more of a crunch on the outside. I also had a massive helping of the tagliatelle bolognese and although tasty felt like it was pre-made. I am not sure what they make from scratch in-house as everything served to my dinner party felt pre-made and pre-packaged. Less
Wonderful service by the friendly staff. Great value and the best roasted red pepper soup! The lunch menu is great; this was my first time in for lunch although I've been multiple times for dinner. Great dinner date spot too!... More

Went for NYE Dinner at Next Door Wine Bar...an offshoot of Toscana and would rate it 3.5/5; music was so loud it was distracting; after mentioning it several times to the server, my friend actually told the violinist directly - and then after he was done, there was about an hour where there was no music at all.

Went for NYE Dinner at Next Door Wine Bar...an offshoot of Toscana and would rate it 3.5/5; music was so loud it was distracting; after mentioning it several times to the server, my friend actually told the violinist directly - and then after he was done, there was about an hour where there was no music at all. Food was okay/good for the most part but they obviously overbooked. The first course was a bruchetta which came untoasted and was difficult to eat, as the bread became soggy very quickly. The lobster bisque was gritty/lumpy but I don't know if they were trying to be unconventional. It had a very fishy aroma. Sadly, the kitchen ran out of cetain things; items on the entre entree plate were all different temperatures and the meat was uncooked by how it was ordered for my friend, and mine was cold. The roast potatoes was one of the items they ran out of, and was replaced with very runny lumpy mashed potatoes. As a server, I would have been embarrassed. We did ask for replacements, and we're served almost immediately with somewhat warmer plates, so someone else did not get their plates. I had requested to not have the veg on the regular plate due to allergies and the second plate had one of the items listed Demostrated either a lack of caring or the server was told to take it. Had Mt allergy been anaphylaxis in reaction...that plate could have been an issue. What was good was the mushroom risotto - excellent flavor and not overcooked, the dessert was beautiful in presentation and the cappuccino after was a delight. Our server tried hard to make it a good evening, but was fighting an uphill battle against an unprepared back of house. Less
Good service and good food
Really good, would definitely go again. Was a little expensive, but food was excellent and they accommodated a large group very well.
Amazing Pizza!! Great service, it was also quiet. Great place for a date.
Food was awesome, service was okay, prices were good. Highly recommended if you like Italian food.
Service was good and food was pretty good as well. :)
Good food and friendly staff. Great for a family dinner.
We confirmed prior to booking our cousins dinner reservation for Monday August 15 the we could have the Ten Fest. (Only available Sunday and Monday). So after we arrived (today Monday) to our surprise we were told that they are now changing their menu and the specials weren't available. No other specials were offered.

When we arrived home I checked their website and the Ten Fest was still there. So 2 drinks and 2 pasta meals bill after 15% tip was $59.05. This was our first visit and our last. Less
It has homey feel and really good pasta
Excellent food. Had Fettuccine Alfredo with Chicken and it was sublime for such a simple dish. The service was perfect.
Good service, quality food, nice ambiance
Excellent menu, staff and service. No other choice for authentic Italian food with Tuscany flavours. Excellent, will be back.
The atmosphere was great. The Italian music in the background was really nice, and the decor was great. We barely had to wait for our food, and felt like the waiters were attentive, but not overly so. The exterior doesn't do it justice.

Wife had surf & turf I had the sliders. Overall 90% wife's steak was cooked good just hard to cut. Sliders flavor. Wendy our server was excellent!
Ignore all negative comments. Best Italian food in Calgary. Food is always fresh and authentic.
Went there with a big group of kids I coach and the service was great. Owner was very accommodating and nice!

They've made some changes to the menu since I last dined here. We had the calamari, bruschetta, and gamberetti for appetizers. All 3 were good. I had the linguini pescatore as my main course.

The portion size was excellent, and it was packed full of seafood. Flavours were OK, but overall the pasta was very dry. My wife had the Margherita pizza. It was the first time I've ever seen a Margherita pizza with burnt cheese on it. Looked more like a pizza ordered from a crappy delivery place, then what a Margherita pizza should be. I also ordered the cheesecake for desert. I didn't like the presentation at all. It was served in a glass, and was more of a cheesecake mousse than cake. Also the strawberry compote, looked more like tomato sauce. The service was good, but I was disappointed with the meal, overall. Less

I've just returned from the worst service at a restaurant. Our reservation was for 6:15 and when we arrived on time we were told to sit at any table. We found a table and we're asked if we wanted something to drink. We ordered our drinks, diet coke and tea, and then we waited for our waiter to return to take our order.

I've just returned from the worst service at a restaurant. Our reservation was for 6:15 and when we arrived on time we were told to sit at any table. We found a table and we're asked if we wanted something to drink. We ordered our drinks, diet coke and tea, and then we waited for our waiter to return to take our order. When he finally came back I had honestly forgotten what I wanted to order and had to look at the menu again. We ordered and then waited for ages. We were finally served our dinner at 7:30 with excuses about why it took so long. People who had arrived after us had already eaten and left. At 8:00 the waiter offered us a free drink or dessert which neither of us wanted. I stated a small discount would be appreciated and that was flatly refused. The manager stated they would not do that and when I stated that I had been a regular customer but would not come again, he said fine. He was very loud and rude. There are hundreds of other restaurants in Calgary that i'm sure will appreciate my business. Less
Had a staff party here and they had great food and great service. Hector took excellent care of us!
The best part of my dinner here was the service, which was timely, friendly, and non-obtrusive. Kitchen service was also very well timed, although I was there early-ish on a Thursday, so it wasn't very busy. The food, however, was at best mediocre.

The best part of my dinner here was the service, which was timely, friendly, and non-obtrusive. Kitchen service was also very well timed, although I was there early-ish on a Thursday, so it wasn't very busy. The food, however, was at best mediocre. Italian is an ingredient-driven cuisine, and the stuff used here was unimpressive. I shared an appetizer platter that had the blandest bruschetta I've ever had (yes, I know that tomatoes aren't in season, so don't offer something that relies on having the best quality tomatoes), a cream dip that tasted very similar to tzaziki from a tub, and a few, tiny olives, all accompanied by a single store-bought pita. I don't recall what it cost, but I could have made a better platter of the same dishes for a third the price. For a main I had the tricolore pizza, which once again featured under-ripe tomatoes (which looked a lot like beefsteaks, which should not be on a pizza), a _tiny_ amount of mozzarella-like cheese, and a couple of ribbons of chiffonnaded basil. Underseasoned and poorly topped, the best part was the crust, which -- when it wasn't over-sogged from the tomatoes -- was crispy on the bottom, tender and chewy on the top, with a nice puff on the rim. One note: I understand that the crust needs to be floured on the bottom so that it slides off the peel, but it is entirely possible to put too much. Excess unincorporated flour makes even a good crust unpleasant to eat. Since Italian cuisine isn't hard to replicate at home, and usually has its best expression as a "Grandmother" cuisine, I have very high standards for Italian restaurants. If the price point here was a few dollars per item lower, I probably would have been forgiving, but considering the location being firmly in suburban sprawl and the quality of the ingredients used, I found the food to be considerably overpriced. For the price of the small "to share" appetizer platter, I could have made a better appetizer platter and two tortilla-and-cast-iron crisp pizzas at home. I would not go back, and unless one happens to be nearby and absolutely must have Italian, I'd recommend one of the hundreds of Italian places in the city that are more central and use better ingredients. Cibo comes to mind instantly, but there are many, many others. Less
Went here for a company dinner and it was fantastic. Highly recommended!
Some of the best service and food you can find in this city. Been there on a date and with friends and had a great time
Decided to go here a few days ago after looking at reviews online. Ordered the meatball and sausage polpette. It was tasty and came with only two pieces of crispy crostini.

Got the lobster and crab ravioli. It was average and came in a small portion. My hubby got breaded veal with veggies.

I prefer Teatro for this price range. Less

I have been to Toscana once for lunch, and last night for dinner. We got Bruschetta for a starter and it was delicious. They saw that we ran out of bread with it and gladly gave us more. The Veal Parmigiana was traditional and my friend got the special which was Osso Bucco- both were fantastic. The service is excellent, and so is the food.

Very disappointing. My wife and I were hoping for a fine dining experience similar to what we have found at other Tuscan style grills.

Very disappointing. My wife and I were hoping for a fine dining experience similar to what we have found at other Tuscan style grills. The ambiance is a cross between Italian fine dining and sports bar with UFC playing on the television while you dine. They brought a couple of pieces of toast with the ends burnt. The osobuco my wife ordered was over cooked and seem like it had been boiled in sauce for too long, not with a rich sauce we have experienced at other restaurants. And it was $34 which was way over priced for what was served. The sides being penni noodles with a skimpy tomato sauce , a sprig of broccoli boiled carrot and a couple of slices of roasted pepper, no garnish. We requested some parmesan cheese which was brought about halfway through the meal. It had been grated and perhaps not fresh with pieces that were hard. The bill came to over $100 and for that price we prefer a restaurant that cares about providing a quality dining experience that makes you want to come back. It seems a number of restaurants tend to go on a theme or a name without providing the goods. Definitely a fail in this case. Less
Excellent dining experience. The owner and staff are all very friendly and fast to serve. Food was great! Definitely going back here.
