There’s nothing better than strolling down the street, meandering into an establishment whose exterior could be considered questionable and discovering great food.
This is how My-Toronto stumbled upon the Monte Bianco…a humble Italian space with a cozy setting and brick wall decor.
The menu’s presentation was as fancy as its exterior, but the quality of their dishes is the real deal at a fair price.
A family run business, Monte Bianco claims their passion for Italian food finds its way into every dish. That description hits the mark.
The mafalde pasta with lobster, oyster mushrooms and mascarpone cheese and the fire roasted pizzas served with chili oil were comparable to eating in regions of Italy itself. Procuring fresh ingredients from local vendors was apparent in many dishes, especially the burrata salad.
Paired with wine from a decent selection and you’re in for an intimate experience with authentic ‘cibo Italiano’.
