Reviews for Caffe Torino in Tucson, AZ
One of our favorite places in Oro Valley. Good portions and reasonable prices are a big part of it, but the food is high quality... and the staff is very professional and friendly, too. It's like going to a fancy Italian restaurant without paying fancy prices. Read more
So this is an upscale place and looks nice when you enter. Our food was just OK. The servings were small for the price and the... server was very Inexperienced and not friendly. No personality whatsoever. It would have expected better training than that forthat price of a place. The wedge salad was tiny and not even a wedge. It was loose it was loose pieces of lettuce. Our otherguests that were there they're felt about the same as we did and they said that was the way it was the time before and weprobably wouldn't visit again. Read more
Yes, we have no lasagna, we have no lasagna today, We went for dinner on a Friday night. After ordering wine and asking about... the specials, we perused the menu. When the waitress came back, I ordered the lasagna. She said the chef had not preparedlasagna that day. I had to wonder, was the chef too tired to make lasagna? Why did the waitress not tell us when we ordered outwine and asked about the specials? And where was my favorite waiter, Brody? Caffe Torino is a lovely restaurant which I thinkmight be having some negative sequelae from the pandemic. I hope it returns to its original splendor. Read more
I came in last week with my mother and and younger disabled brother. This was the first time we had ever come to this place and... we will never return. The waiter was rude and dismissive of my brother. He has down syndrome and he’s in a wheelchair. Theyhave little to no wheelchair accessible areas. When we were sat in the outside part were barely attended to. The times we didsee our waiter she wouldn’t look in my brother’s direction or let him order for himself. She was abrupt and took our ordersnappingly. Our breakfast was either over cooked or undercooked and the plates had black stains. After only having our food for10 minutes the manager came out and said people were complaining of my brother being ‘too loud’ and ‘ disruptive’ andasked us to leave. My brother has a vocal disorder to which he cannot control. Overall i would 100% not recommend coming to thisestablishment Read more
Very solid place for Italian dinner, food is always very full of flavor and save room for dessert! Service is always good and... sometimes a bit inconsistent on great service but never below good. Update 2022 July! The service today was fantastic and forsure I have taken the entire visit to 5 stars! The food as always stayed absolutely consistent but tonight the service was whattook the meal and dinner over the top. Read more
I've heard about Caffe Torino for years but postponed making the trek as it's quite a drive from where we live. I shouldn't... have waited this long! It was all I'd heard and more. A very interesting menu of traditional Italian dishes plus manydifferent also traditional pizza choices. Quite hard to decide. We all ended up having something different and all is thoughtit was the best we'd ever had. The service was friendly, helpful and prompt, though they were very busy, and a bit short handedI think. The 12" pizza I chose was a thin crust pepperoni and cheese. Wow! It was only 14 bucks and easily a 10 on a scale of1 to 10. I could only eat half but the rest came home with me in a box and will be my lunch today. Yum! This time there wewere a group of 5 guys on a boys night out. However, I have already booked reservations for this weekend for just my wife andI. So many different entrees to try. An excellent Italian wine list too. Geez, I wish they were closer. Read more
This restaurant is a family owned business. Top notch authentic Italian food. Of course I personally love to sit up at the bar -... you can still order from the full menu up there. My favorite dishes to get are the Cesar salad, lasagna bologneise and thissteak dish that has a delicious gorgonzola sauce! They also make different soups throughout the week. I literally drive acrosstown to come eat here. It's that good! Read more
Very good menu and delicious sauce. Service a little slow during the week. Bruschetta a bit on the salty side. Nice bar and... friendly surroundings. Prices reflect all of the above-but worth it. Read more
