    Great food and service. Gets pretty loud and definitely priced on the high side. Curry mussels are the best in the business

    Flavours were excellent. However - we were seated by a silent hostess who checked our reservation then squeezed past us to grab menus and walk towards a table, then we were served stale bread, which was replaced with fresher but tasteless bread. Salad Verde - excellent. My daughter enjoyed her Pappardelle Al Rahul. I ordered the Farfalle con Gamberi. While really tasty, the second shrimp I bit into was half raw. Our table was in a very dark spot - I used my phone to look at the remaining shrimp - they were raw. The server offered to replace them, and did, but I had lost my appetite. She apologized - when I made it clear I understood this was not her fault, she did say she’d ask the manager for a discount. We were given 25% off the dish. Unfortunately no manager approached to apologize, and I got the feeling the attitude was not “we’re sorry but please come back”, but rather “too bad this happened to you this time, but you’re lucky to have the privilege of eating in our restaurant”. This is a place I’d return to for the flavours and the excellent server, but the attitude is a non-starter.

    Overall, the restaurant is still very good. Always have had a good standard of quality. Only comment this time was seafood dish indicated there would be fish, shrimp, scallops and mussels. And some folks might be thrilled to also find squid, but I have never been a fan. I told our server flavour was very good but would not order that dish again because of the squid surprise. Bit of a waste as well, since I chose to remove it from the dish.

    Tesoros has always been a family go to for dining out. As always the food was amazing. Service was outstanding. My only complaint and the reason I can't give 5 stars is the restaurant requiring a credit card for booking. It's obtrusive and annoying.

    Tesoro RestaurantResponded on January 26, 2023Hi Chris and thank you for your review and we are ecstatic to have you as a regular guest! If everyone was as considerate as you then we wouldn't have had to implement the credit card policy. Not having a large dining room, losing 2 or 3 tables nightly because someone doesn't cancel greatly affects our ability to have tables available for those respectful guests. We wish it was different, as well, but a sign of the times, unfortunately. We do apologize for the intrusion and annoyance.

    Had the spaghetti and Sicilian meatballs. Found it very pasty and unflavoured. Meatballs were dry. Maybe I chose the wrong meal.

    Tesoro RestaurantResponded on January 26, 2023Hello and thank you for your review! Our Spaghetti and Meatballs is one of our staple dishes, enjoyed by a great number of our guests. Had we known while you were in the restaurant we would have gone to great length to ensure you had a very positive dining experience. Please reach out to us at tesorocollingwood@gmail and we will find a way to make it right!

    As always, the food did not disappoint. We were a group of six, with everyone ordering different main dishes. Everyone enjoyed and offered to share their choices with a "you got to try this!" experience. Our server was informative about the menu and gave us a great experience. I can't wait to return.

    We drove in from Wasaga Beach and arrived half hour early, so asked to sit at the bar. We were happy to learn we could order and eat there as well, so our wait to be served was not long at all. Our server was wonderful! Funny, attentive and efficient. Food was amazing too! We will definitely put this place on our list of places to eat on date nights. Happy New Year!

    Everything was fantastic. I like a bit of restaurant noise as I find it exciting. This restaurants noise level was just right for us- we could easily hear each other talking while hearing the hum of the restaurant. We love this restaurant and have thoroughly enjoyed it for 15+ yrs. Shhh keep it a secret!

    Our experience at Tesoro was perfect. We only wished we could have stayed longer, but had to leave as our table was reserved for the next diners. We were a party of six and I feel more time may be required than the 2 hours alotted. We felt rushed at the end... but knew that we had a time limit. Compliments to the chef... every dish was perfect and delicious. Great selection. The wines complimented the meals perfectly. Great service. A little noisey, but very cozy. Overall, a great experience. Will definitely be returning. Happy New Year.
