Toscana Italian Grill - Calgary Canada

Had the most underwhelming food here.... Twice now, so shame on me I guess. It 's unfortunate because it 's in the neighbourhood and you want to support local, but it wasn 't even close to Italian food. Tomato sauce was less impressive than Ragu brand and Caesar dressing they Drenched the lettuce with was Beyond generic and the burger bun they used for veal parm was pathetic. I really think we need a restaurant that cares about what they 're serving. There 's better food at the pub. Probably more Italian than this.

Everything that I had here was amazing and very well and reasonably priced! I ordered a greek salad but I don't like olives so I asked for them to take them out and they did which shows how fresh the greek salad is because it is not remade and the dressing on it is very delicious. Then we goethe spaghetti or pasta primavera which is very simple but it came with tomato sauce on it and basil. As well, they bring fresh parmesan cheese to the table to go on the pasta. My family ordered a cheese pizza for my niece and it was so cheesy and fresh that it was wonderful! The best part and this was a surprise- I checked in on YELP and when you buy one entree at Toscana at regular price- you get a free dessert! I got the Nutelle and Banana Crepes and they were so delicious and chocolatey!

Toscana Italian Grill is locates in front of Macleod trail beside of London Drugs. There is a parking lot in front of you are driving. The place is pretty cool, it's not loud and it has a nice atmosphere. The menu has so many good options and they work with happy hour until 6:00 pm I guess. I saw all the pictures on Yelp and I got a free dessert coupon from the app once I did the check in but they charged me ... but that's ok!!! We ordered the meat balls as entree and stick cheese... the meat balls weren't good.. but the cheese was good. We ordered a bottle of wine during the happy hour and that was good : then I ordered Margarita Pizza... it was too dry... I think it was missing some tomato sauce.. the pastas looked good but I was full enough to try.. lol Once we finished the pizza I got the Tiramissu.. it was really good : if you are here, make some room for dessert... The service was good, the waitress was so nice and friendly.. she knew about the menu and she was explaining in details how the cook and so on. I hope you guys like the place...

Just be really careful when ordering food to pick up. First of all their pick up website does not seem to work. I spent 10 minutes trying to do it online and eventually just walked in myself to order. I ordered a pepperoni pizza, but I wasn't told a pepperoni pizza automatically includes mushrooms. Why couldn't somebody say by the way just so you know this comes with mushrooms. Eventually I am bringing home spaghetti with meatballs to my kids which is I think the smallest portion I've ever seen for $20. Probably better off going to Lena's for Italian food to go.

I went to Toscana for the first time the other day and I was blown away by their service food. I didn't know what to expect but I've heard nothing but good things about this place. The waitress was super fun friendly. The food was much more amazing than I could've imagined. Their Calamari was cooked perfectly with a nice thin batter, it's a must have! For my main course I had the Ravioli con Aragosta (lobster crab stuffed ravioli served with a sun-dried tomato sauce . They have a great variety of options on their menu. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who loves Italian food!
