Sugo on Postcard

"This is a great spot to gather around the table with your kids, or if you're solo there's a welcoming bar with lots of seats. Don't mistake the chill, family friendly vibe for subpar food - in fact it's quite the opposite. We highly recommend trying out 'The Grand Royal' double cheese burger, Jerk Branzino and one of the many delicious sides." - Concrete

The neighbourhood Italian spot, Sugo, is a haven for anyone looking for a delicious bite of Italian cuisine. This restaurant delights customers with its classic Italian dishes–it's simple, but done really well. The sauces have the perfect creamy consistency, and each dish is unique, but share a common thread of hearty flavors. And the portion sizes are generous, so you don't have to worry about leaving hungry. The restaurant also has daily specials, which always feature something delicious. Dip into a guilt-free portion of their famous Tiramisu–just the right balance of sweet and bitter. Along with the great food, the atmosphere is so inviting with the cheery and welcoming staff. They always have a friendly greeting and make sure each guest is taken care of. Even when it gets packed, the restaurant never skips a beat. For anyone looking for a true Italian neighborhood experience, Sugo is definitely worth a visit. With delicious Italian dishes, ample portions and friendly service, this restaurant is sure to please the palate and the soul.

I visited Sugo today (Sunday) around 2:30 pm, and the wait time was about 45 minutes. We ordered the stuffed peppers, pesto cream spaghetti, and cheese lasagna. While all the dishes were delicious, the stuffed peppers and spaghetti truly stood out. The service was another highlight. The servers were incredibly friendly and attentive.

Second time here and it was so amazing! Everything was tasty, I think the mains (pasta and parmigiana) really shined, the apps (meatball, calamari and garlic bread) were really good too. We got there at exactly 3 (when they opened) and were seated immediately, waitlist was already in effect by 4. We know Sugo is always busy and that they wanted to flip tables quickly for another seating, that being said, we felt a little rushed with the service, and they seemed a little reluctant to course out the meal as requested (we just asked for two courses, apps and mains). Also, they don't accept credit cards anymore, just cash and debit. Still a really good experience and will return to try other items!

First time to dine here. My partner and I were excited to try the food. Server was really nice and funny. Food is very good! The calamari was tender. The pesto cream pasta was phenomenal! We'll go back and try their tiramisu soon.

I’d heard so much about this place and was so excited to finally try it. Even though getting a table at night was tough (had to wait over an hour!), it was definitely worth it. I highly recommend the pesto cream spaghetti – it was AMAZING, so good! I’d definitely go back. The waiter was super friendly and funny, which made the experience even better. Just a heads up, they only accept debit or cash, not credit. And if you can't find a spot, they have a second location right next door, and they stay open until around 11pm.

Delicious food and good service! Massive portions. I would go back, but share next time. The pesto cream spaghetti was very good. A bit oily, but there’s a great tomato sauce around the edge which helps cut that. Only issue with the place is it’s very crowded and loud (hard to have a conversation).

The food was fantastic! So rich and satisfying. The service even better! All the people that helped our table during dinner were amazing. Special thanks to Heather and Drew for taking the time to make us feel like we were part of the Sugo family.

I have been wanting to try Sugo for the longest time. Be sure to go as early as you can as the place is quite small and gets filled up quickly, waiting an hour is not unusual. I took recommendations from TikTok and got the Caesar salad which was incredible, the sauce was flavourful and the lettuce was fresh and crunchy. The chicken parm cutlet was delicious and juicy. The rigatoni was the star of the show in my opinion, it hit the spot. The only miss of the meal was the pesto pasta, it looks better than it tastes. I found it lacking flavour and it was a bit oily. The portions were generous and our server was lovely, she recommended the espresso martinis which we throughly enjoyed. Overall, I would recommend this place to anyone but make sure you get the rigatoni!!

THE PESTO SPAGHETTI IS ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS!!! I already want to go back just for the pesto. Every single dish was amazing. It's great to order a bunch of different dishes and share amongst the table. The portions are quite large. Service was very friendly. I'm coming back soon. Yummy!!!!
