Piatto Vecchio

If I were going out for Italian this would not be my first choice. The pasta dishes are over priced and not worth the money… There are many other restaurants in the area that charge the same money if not less and the quality is that much better
If you insist on eating there, the calamari are always a hit and the penne alla vodka
I have it a 3 based on food quality to price ratio

A very nice place! Service is very friendly and professional. Setting is comfortable and even romantic. Good was great, totally worth its money. The only thing was that there was a big party for «sweet 16» birthday with bunch of loud girls. I would say that if it wasn’t for them, we would stay there a bit longer. Otherwise very nice and totally professional.

This place is amazing! Their shrimp risotto was the best I’ve had in a long time. Great service and good wine list. Will defiantly be coming back

Very good GF pasta! Apetizers excellent.
Crème brûlée ruined a perfect dinner
Waiters very friendly and knowledgeable.

I made a reservation at piatto vecchio tonight for 6 for my friends 1 year anniversary and we LOVED IT ! Our waiter (Alberto I believe) was as authentic as it gets. He was very accommodating and patient with us and very helpful with the menus. The atmosphere was very pleasant and modern. every one of our meals was amazin !! The martinis are so good. Like the real deal! We had the linguini frutti de mari, linguini con pollo the gnocchi salmone and the veal and the lasagna. All of our dishes were DELISCIOUS!! i would definitely come back here. The linguini frutti de mari was especially amazing, the presentation and amount was incredible! i would absolutely recommend this place ! We will be back very soon !

I went here this past Sunday for a 25^th wedding anniversay. This was the fist time I have ever been here and loved it. I felt as if i was in a typical Italian hall for a wedding. The atomosphere was nice, we got out own private section off the the side of the resturant. I also noticed the place was closed to the public which made it nice to have just a couple of parties going on. The décor of the place was modern and stylish.
The pre set menu was exactly what I expected. The first course was the antipasta, the second was the pasta (red and white) the third wad the main meat dish and dessert was shorbert plus cake and italian cookies my aunt had made. By the end of this meal I was stuffed… exactly how I usually feel at every family function. I’d like to reurn back when I am able to see what they offer on a regular day and the quality of service then. All in all great day out within a great enviroment!

This place was suggested by a former colleague when we were trying to figure out a place for a catch up lunch meeting. Funny, I’ve lived in Richmond Hill almost my entire life and apparently this place has been here almost the same length of time. What?
This is #YelpLife as it were I suppose. Finding hidden gems right in your backyard. And in case you’re wondering where you can find this spot, it’s located in the plaza on the North-​East corner of Bathurst and Carville Road (aka Rutherford).
It’s simplistic enough from the outside but the modern open concept design that lays within is a refreshing look for an Italian restaurant.
Given that we were here for lunch, I didn’t have anything to drink, but after hearing about some of their specials I couldn’t resist the sound of the Risotto Giambieri (shrimp). It was a hearty portion for sure and the rice was cooked as it should be (and if you’ve ever watched Hells Kitchen, Gordon Ramsey would have you believe that this is a bloody big deal!)
My only complaint is the dish was a little light on the main attraction (the Shrimp), I counted 3 in my dish. Which I suppose is fair for a lunch but for the price I had hoped for a couple more. On the plus side the shrimp I did receive were a fair size.
I’d definitely return to give them another try, and sample some of my other fave Italian dishes.
Eatcrest Out!

This place has been here for YEARS and I have always wanted to go but for one reason or another just never did, and I lived about 2 minutes away from it for my entire life. Finally, I got around to trying the place a few weeks back after having move downtown! Funny the way things work out.
Had some sort of pasta with a sun-​dried tomato cream sauce and chicken — it was delicious! The restaurant was pretty empty so can’t comment much on the atmosphere, but the décor was very nice. It would probably do much better in a different location, but they’ve managed to stick around there for about 16 years so they must be doing ok. The menu is rather limited, but I would definitely give it another try… maybe in another 16 years, but hopefully sooner!
Based on my experience I’d say it’s one of the better restaurants in the area, but unfortunately I didn’t try any more dishes than my own. Oh wait… Their mushroom soup was also amazing!

I came here the other night for dinner and was not disappointed, but not incredibly impressed either. The meal starts with complimentary foccacia with olive oil and balsamic vinegar for dipping which was very good. For an appetizer I got the carpaccio with arugula salad and truffle olive oil. That I was impressed with — the meat was incredibly tender and the flavour from the oil complimented it very nicely. Best carpaccio I’ve had.
For the entrée I ordered a special which was orange roughy with a mushroom sauce. This was quite good, but I was not a fan of the texture of the fish as it was a bit mushy. However I have not had orange roughy before, so maybe that’s just how the fish is. I tried a bit of the whole grilled sea bass, and I found that to be much better than my dish.
Service was great, they were friendly, helpful, and not as slow as I expected for how busy it was and the fact that they were short two waiters that night. As for cost, it was a little pricey, $ 135 plus tip for one appetizer, three entrees, some mineral water, pop, and cappuccino — not quite worth it, but not a complete rip-​off either. I”ll be sure to return and try other appetizers and entrees to see how their other dishes are.

I was very excited to eat at this restaurant. Website looked great, restaurant is very nicely put together, the bar seems a little underwhelming but overall I was ready for a small kitchen, privately owned taste of magnificence.
What I got was canned mushrooms mixed in with a tasteless brown sauce over veal that was obviously not fresh. I would have paid $ 12 for the meal and felt somewhat taken, but putting a $ 23 price on this was insulting.
Advice for the restaurant, I’m sure you’ve had success in the past for making great, fresh, homemade dishes. Go back to doing that, you have a great space. Stop cutting corners. If you don’t, I give you 6 months of viability.

This place is extremely over-​priced and the food is very bland. Of course, my foodie red flag started waving when the parmesan cheese they offered to sprinkle over our food was the processed powder variety — the epitome of a bad Italian restaurant. A dinner for two children and two adults (one beer included for me as the wine selection by the glass was abysmal) was $ 145. Many, many more better dining choices in Richmond Hill.

It is not easy to find in Canada a nice, cozy, and NOT noisy place. Delicious food, quiet and relaxing atmosphere, and clean, service is good and it is not annoying (!!!), will come back for sure.

Excellent food and nice atmosphere. The stuffed chicken I had was excellent, the veal not so much, very rubbery, but that’s always a challenge to pull off.
All in all, worth a look if you’re in the area

The food here is absolutely delicious — especially the panko crusted sole. When you are lucky enough to go on a night they are serving it on mashed potato, it’s even better. Otherwise, it will come on roasted potatoes (which are also good)
Sometimes the service can be a bit slow, but the food is always well worth the wait. Plus, it’s a great, quiet atmosphere for chatting.
For dessert, both the cappuccino and tiramisu are great!
I highly recommend this restaurant.
