Toronto Travel Forum

HI
Travelling to Toronto and staying around Bayview/Eglikngton area. Looking for a good Luncheon spot Preferably Italian or european
Thanks

Hi Andy, I know the area but not well enough to name specific restaurants unfortunately. On Bayview south of Eglinton, there are many restaurants to choose from - Thai, pubs, Italian ... a lot of choice.

At Sheppard/Bayview, (n. of Eglinton) in Bayview Village Mall there are two restaurants - Il Fornello's, which is good for pasta, pizza, etc. The salads are huge, if that interests you. Also, Oliver & Bonacini's - again pasta, pizza, and varied entrees.

Not on Bayview, but on Yonge Street, there is La Vecchia which is about 10 minutes walk north from Eglinton. (Not sure if they're open for lunch - must check).

La Vecchia opens for lunch. Hope the info. helps.
