Description
Voted Toronto's best Italian restaurant by Zagat, Campagnolo presents a fresh and daring take on traditional Italian cuisine.
Named Canada's Best New Restaurant by enRoute Magazine after it launched in 2011, Campagnolo follows the authentic recipes of owner and chef Craig Harding's Venetian grandmother. Maintaining a farm-to-table approach, each part of every dish is made in-house.
Having formerly housed a Coffee Time outlet, a redesign of the building by Harding's partner, HGTV's Alexandra Hutchison, transformed it into the casual tradition-based restaurant it is today. Serving delicious food, and boasting an unpretentious atmosphere and friendly service, Campagnolo is a fun and relaxed place to eat and drink.
With a seasonal menu changing to reflect the freshest ingredients and Chef Harding's latest inspiration, this dining experience gives a unique taste of several of Campagnolo's rustic dishes. The seven-course tasting menu is complimented with five wines from the restaurant's reserve list, of both Italian and international origin, to perfectly pair with the dishes served.
Sample Menu (Changes Seasonally):
- House-made Bread and Warm Marinated Olives
- 60 Day Aged Beef Tartare with Truffle Sauce and Toasted Brioche
- Fresh Local Burrata Cheese with Roasted Grapes
- House-Made Spaghetti All'Amatriciana
- Gnocchi with Bastardo Blu, Swiss Chard, Vincotto and Smoked Almonds
- Veal Ossobucco, Borlotti Beans, Cardoons, Preserved Orange and Cocoa
- Salted Caramel Budino with Chocolate Meringue
Sample Wines:
- 2009 Cava Reserva, Juve y Camps, Penedes, Spain
- 2011 Charles Baker Riesling, Niagara, Canada
- 2011 Rosso di Montalcino, San Polo, Tuscany, Italy
- 2002 Cabernet Sauvignon, La Stoppa, Emiglia Romagna, Italy
- 2008 Grillo Passito, Rallo, Sicily, Italy
