Sometimes all you need to get through the week is a good old bowl of pasta. There’s something so comforting about loading up on carbs, sauce, and cheese. Lucky for us, Toronto is home to some of the best pasta takeout/delivery options out there. Whether you’re planning for a quarantine date night, a Zoom dinner sesh with friends, or just eating on your own, these tasty spots are must-hits.
Here are 10 of the best places for pasta takeout/delivery in Toronto.
SUGO
Our first pick is a local fave – and for good reason. You can’t go wrong with a plate of pasta from Sugo. This Bloor West resto is basically a Toronto rite of passage. We recommend keeping things classic and ordering a bowl of their rigatoni.

GUSTO101
Back when restaurants were open for dine-in, the rooftop patio at Gusto101 was a must-hit. But even without the killer in-person vibe, pasta from this joint still slaps. Our personal favourite is their Mafalde Ai Funghi, but pretty much any dish from here is delicious.

TRATTORIA NERVOSA
This quant Yorkville spot more than lives up to its reputation. They have loads of delicious pasta dishes, but you can’t go wrong with their Capellini. It comes with sun-dried tomato, goat cheese, and a sprig of basil. Yum!

PIANO PIANO
This spot’s pasta dishes are hella hard to beat. They have loads of all-the-time classics, plus tons of seasonal specials that’ll get your mouth watering. Pretty much everything on their menu is to die for. But if we had to pick, we’d say try the ravioli.

ENOTECA SOCIALE
This spot’s called Toronto home for over 10 years, and in that time they’ve made quite the name for themselves. They specialize in an authentic Roman taste, with Italian wine pairings you won’t believe. If you’ve got an at-home date night lined up, this is the place to hit.

SOTTO SOTTO
Toronto locals will know that this spot’s major claim to fame is one of its frequent diners. Yep, we’re talking about Drake. The 6ix rapper has been spotted at the joint more than a few times. Given the amazing pasta they’re serving up, we can’t say we’re surprised!

TERRONI
All three locations of this famous Italian joint do pasta right. Their menus are stacked with pretty much every pasta combination you could think of. Seriously, the list goes on for ages. So no matter what type of bowl you’re looking for, you’re sure to find something good here.

EATALY
Of course, we can’t talk about pasta and not mention Eataly. This spot is pretty much an all-in-one when it comes to Italian eats. Their in-house restaurants offer amazing pasta takeout/delivery. Plus, you can shop in the Italian marketplace for all the ingredients to make it at home. They even have virtual cooking classes running through the pandemic! Is there anything they don’t do??

ROSINA
The authentic flavours of Italy will dance on your tastebuds when you order from this scrumptious Toronto spot. They’ve got some of the best pasta in town, in all kinds of flavours. But our recommendation has got to be one of their many gnocchi dishes.

FIGO
Last but not least, we’ve got the stellar Figo Toronto. This delicious spot is a city favourite, and when you taste their pasta you’ll see why. We suggest you keep things classic and order up a bowl of their Cacio e Pepe. It’s light, simple, and full of flavour.
Where: 295 Adelaide St W

So hit up these delicious joints for the best pasta takeout/delivery in Toronto. We know we’ll be ordering from one (or all) of them this week.
