About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
  • Fancy
Tucked away at 11 Church St. in Old Town Toronto, Pasta Privato is a hidden sanctuary just steps from Union Station and St. Lawrence Market. Under the creative direction of Chef Michael Angeloni, this intimate, dim-lit space offers a refined escape where artisanal pasta is the undisputed star. The atmosphere is sophisticated yet soulful—a "hidden gem" that balances high-end gastronomy with a playful, high-energy spirit.

The experience is highly curated, with a focus on an ever-evolving Tasting Menu. Rather than a single signature dish, the mastery of hand-rolled dough and seasonal fluidity define our kitchen. Every visit offers a new discovery of texture and technique in a candlelit setting designed for deep connection. Step through the kitchen and into a world where world-class craft meets an exclusive, storied atmosphere.

    Overall, our experience was okay. We went with the 4-course prix fixe, and a few dishes were real highlights. My personal favourite was the crudo, which was excellent. The torta, on the other hand, was underwhelming. Service was a mixed bag. We had two servers over the evening. Our first server wasn't very approachable. When I asked whether we could add other dishes from the menu, he looked at me as if it were an odd question. I then asked to clarify whether there were two separate menus (an 8-course and a 4-course), and he confirmed there were and that you can't mix and match. That's completely fine, but his curt tone and body language made it feel like my questions were an inconvenience. Our second server was the opposite: friendly, easygoing, and much easier to talk to. We felt far more comfortable with him, and he made the rest of the meal more enjoyable. The kitchen clearly has talent, and the crudo alone is worth trying. A more welcoming front-of-house experience would make a big difference.

    We had such a wonderful dining experience at Pasta Privato, enjoying their Autumn 8-Course Tasting Menu, and it was absolutely delicious from start to finish! The service was exceptional — prompt, attentive, and seamless throughout the evening. Every server we interacted with was warm, friendly, and knowledgeable about the dishes being presented. The sommelier also recommended a delicious off-menu white wine that complemented our evening beautifully. Each course was thoughtfully prepared and beautifully presented, with fresh utensils provided between courses. The attention to detail was truly impressive, even down to the smallest gestures. We noticed that when another guest stepped away to use the washroom, the staff discreetly tidied their table and neatly refolded their linen napkin. It’s those little touches that really elevate a dining experience. As for the food, everything was outstanding! A few personal favourites were the Tajarin, Cappellacci (that brown butter was SO good!), and Tortellini. Every course offered something special, and the quality and care behind each dish were evident. We were also celebrating a birthday, and the team made the occasion feel extra special with a personalized birthday message beautifully written on the dessert plate, complete with a candle. Such a thoughtful finishing touch! Overall, a fantastic evening of incredible food, polished yet genuinely warm hospitality, and impeccable attention to detail. Pasta Privato delivered a memorable dining experience, and we would absolutely return. Highly recommend!

    We had the 4-course sharing menu and each dish was cooked or made to perfection. From the appetizers, pasta dishes, main courses, and to dessert, everything was excellent and I highly recommend you try this gem of a restaurant!
