Firstly our sever Anthony described a Sea Bass as the special, NOTT! what came out was a MEDITERANIAN bass - BIG DIFFERENCE .. what a moron!
Second, as we watched the open kitchen, the chef and counter staff were EATING the dishes as they were being served? On top of that, lots of hands touching mouths/noses throughout service... ???
We ordered two specials- both fish courses. Mine came out so OVERCOOKED and BURNT, I couldn't eat it. The veggies on the plate were cooked hours in advance, YELLOW ROTTON asparagus that SAGGED?? My wife's fish had a duo of problems- BURNT and RAW on the same fish!! Her risotto, was so mushy it was almost soupy!
No apology, no offer of dessert, nothing except a rude arrogant owner Erez storming off and avoiding us the entire time.
DO NOT GO TO VERO!!! unless you enjoy over cooked food, veg that can pass for baby food, and sharing your meal with the kitchen staff.
And worst of all, dealing with incompetent servers/management. NEVER AGAIN!!!
I ate at Vero last night. The food and atmosphere were pretty good. I remember Erez from his Banfi days and I've always loved Bar Italia. It's a nice addition to that sleepy Bayview strip.
I tried Vero a few months ago for brunch, terrific Omletes and have since had lunch and dinner there with friends and family...
The food is REALLY GREAT...And priced very well for what you get...I have dined at some of the best rated restaurants in Toronto and I have to say dollar for dollar this restaurant is top 5 for me when balancing quality and freshness with great value as the dishes are very well priced...
Although price is not the most important thing to me as a consumer, it is nice to know that you can still get a great meal and pay a fair price...
Took a couple there for Anniversary and I have to say the Bar was top notch...Manhattans, Martinis, we where really enjoying ourselves and the service friendly and whoever was serving us was very funny and made our night really enjoyable...Last ones there, did not feel rushed at all...
I am now a proud regular and although no restaurant is perfect, I certainly did not see any evidence of the post above...Very clean, organized and polite...
Overall a really good place to dine at a reasonable price...
Going there tonight!
