Great staff, great food!

Love that this spot has a fully vegan menu, they even have a section for vegan wines, too.

Really great pizza (the carrot salmon pizza is especially good imo), and a nice selection of pastas.

You're even offered vegan parmesan or cracked black pepper which is a nice touch.

We were also treated to a plant-based creme Brule which had phenomenal flavourful and a nice crunchy top.

If you want to check this place out on a weekend, I'd recommend making a reservation. It's pretty busy, you'll soon see why! 😊

Pros: Pizzas, Great staff, Vegan wine options

Full vegan menu

The menu has an entire page of vegan options - appetizers, pizza, pasta dishes. Everything sounded so good, and it was hard to decide. I ended up with manicotti and enjoyed the pumpkin inside. Get the cheesy garlic bread. Do not hesitate or question it, just do it.

Great choices for PB

I love they have their own menu for plant based with tons of options! Whatever they use for feta is amazing too. Pasta/pizza is decent.

Pros: Vegan menu , Nice patio

It tastes exactly like cheese!

Ordered the Margherita through doordash where it's listed as "Italian for vegan", I thought it was a fully vegan restaurant, lol

But guys ... The cheese was so good I stopped and checked the label on my box. It was unbelievable.

Pros: Really good cheese, Really good Margherita

So many Vegan Options for an Omni restaurant!

This is the go-to place for family get together's!
Such great options for vegans!
They've got at least 4 appetizers, 8 ish vegan pizzas, 5 or 6 pasta dishes, a Beyond Meat Burger and a few desserts. Hands down their BRUNCH is the best of their vegan options. Get the Benny !!!!

Pros: Number of Options, BRUNCH Food, Interior

Cons: Can be pricey

Fantastic vegan Caesar salad

My friend and I had a great experience here with a separate plant based menu featuring a lot of really great options.the Caesar salad was delicious and the 'smoked salmon' - really carrot - pizza was delicious! More locations then just the Danforth

Excellent vegan Italian

Ate with some non vegan family who were impressed with how authentic it all was. Lovely separate vegan menu including starters and dessert. Worth a visit.

Good Option for Group Outings

We really appreciate that Il Fornello introduced a vegan menu, especially as there aren't as many veg options in the east end! I really enjoy the Avocado Caesar salad, and my husband likes the pasta made with Beyond Meat. It's now a great option for going out with non-veg friends or family as everyone can get what they want.

Pros: Good vegan options , Handy location

Good but small portions

They have a number of vegan options but for the price the serving sizes are fairly small.
