Perfect all round, was our first dinner date and it was amazing. Service and food were perfect. Thank you for making our dinner a wonderful memory. We will be back for sure.
This place has been a pizza favourite for years. They know how to fire up a pizza like we used to get before the chains took over. Lots of cheese and a tasty sauce. Hit your slice with some black pepper and down it with a Brio chaser.... yummy.
Amazing. And as a bonus pretty inexpensive. Huge portions. Home made everything. The spaghetti carbonara with mushrooms and bacon is TO DIE FOR. This is a regular spot of mine and also one of the oldest restaurants in Barrie - if not the oldest. I often get the same waitress and she is really nice and speedy. This place is crazy good!

Have been there more than 10 times now, above are some of the things I have tried. The service is always great, the portions are always really big, and the food is always great. I have never had a bad experience with anything I've ordered, and find the different sauces very delicious. Bacon carbonara is exceptional I don't know why somebody would say that it is store bought, it is pretty simple to make in the first place. Have had pasta there many times and always great. Will keep going back.

Great little family owned restaurant with AWESOME AWESOME pizza! nice and thin crust with great ingredients - free salad and bread as well with most orders... the only thing lacking was the service
Pasta was so overcooked it was like a pudding. Sauce tasted like the cheap pre-made stuff you get at the grocery store, so was probably not made from scratch. Worst thing is that the staff claimed the pasta was "fresh". Calling pasta that has been cooked in the morning and been sitting in water all day fresh is just a plain lie. Probably one of the worst "italian" restaurants I have ever been to.
My friend and I know pasta. Before dining, we called Pizzaria Italia Restaurant to make certain that their pasta was not pre-cooked, as we can not stand pasta that was cooked hours before and left for mush. Upon arriving, we double checked with the server to verify that the pasta was indeed not pre-cooked. Again, we were reassured that the pasta was cooked when ordered. When we got our meals, both dishes were obviously pre-cooked, as they had the consistency of pudding. This was later confirmed by the cook, who admitted that they pre-cooked the pasta every morning. The sauce was no better and tasted like Ragu. The resolution was a 25% discount on food that was hardly touched. Appalling.

A hole in the wall you don't want to miss. Pizza was the best I'd had in years! Generous servings of bread before the meal. A great feast! Not the most modern of decor or setting, but well worth the trip!
My son and I dined at Pizzeria Italia for his birthday dinner and we both agree the food was delicious. The servers are always pleasant and their lasagna is yummy.
Excellent homemade Italian - family owned for over 40 years and still the best Meatball Sandwich anywhere!!! Great Veal and Pizza too! Barrie's best kept secret!
