About this restaurant

  • Good for groups
  • Neighborhood gem
  • Lively
Our food is a reflection of the melting pot of cultures that has gentrified the Queen West neighbourhood in Toronto. The menu has been designed for guests to share plates, in an effort to create a convivial and social dining experience.

Our Wood-Fire Pizzas are a cross between Roma and Neapolitan styles; cooked in a wood-burning M.A.M pizza oven imported from Italy. It yields a crust that is thin but sturdy. Wood-fire capabilities are critical for our menu as the flavour imparted on the food is exceptional and unique.

Our cocktails are equally thought out as our food. Our bartenders serve up a no-nonsense cocktail program featuring fresh, seasonal ingredients that are all made in house.

    Food was ok, nothing that special, especially considering the cost. The menu was not updated with correct prices, was charged $10 for non-alc cocktail that was listed as $9. It also said in the menu that happy hour went until 7 pm but they confirmed it only goes until 6pm. The wrapped shrimp was very average, the mushrooms were good but greasy. The short ribs were delicious but the rice underneath was very heavy and the flavour was just ok.

    Ubi, I believe was the name of our waiter and he made the night for us. Despite mediocre pizza and the deafening noise level, he managed to make us have a good time. We like this place but tonight’s dinner choices were not our favourites.

    Visit at the restaurant for brunch on Sunday. Food was OK but certainly not exceptional. Regards to the blowup burger, and the eggs Royale - the bill for two for brunch was about 100 bucks so I expected more. Both were, again, OK. The noise level was a little elevated unnecessarily, but the weight staff were friendly and pleasant. Overall, I was a bit disappointed but again it was OK.

    Great experience at The Goodson, shrimp ravioli was phenomenal, kale Caesar salad was seasoned perfectly, and the cheesecake was just right! Will definitely be back!

    We had a bit of a glitch in our food and the wait staff and manager went above and beyond to make sure the issues was dealt with and the service was incredible. Highly recommend this restaurant. On so many levels it was wonderful.

    The experience was ok until the end when I felt we were being rushed out, it rudely but it was obvious. I had the mushroom togliatti it was so so and the ratios were off for me. Drinks were good, over all ok.
