Tucked away in a quaint plaza in Etobicoke, Buon Giorno Café is a delightful spot if you’re in the mood for an authentic veal on a bun. The owners are from Naples, bringing a touch of genuine Italian flair to their dishes. Today, I opted for their chicken on a bun, and it was absolutely delicious and did not disappoint at all! The sandwiches here are generously sized, easily enough to satisfy two. I highly recommend giving Buon Giorno Café a try; just make sure to bring your appetite!

I just moved to the area recently and have had incredible luck with business choices recently - here's another one. I stumbled upon Buon Giorno's incredible sandwich shop today and I have to say these are the best sandwiches I've ever tasted. For me it's the bread, if you can't get that right then the sandwich is a complete waste of time and effort. Not only is the bread fantastic - all of the ingredients fall in line too. You may think pricey ($15) - but these are monster handhelds - huge is an understatement. The Official Website pics don't to this place justice - I've included the real deal below. I would suggest they come out with a half size for 10 bucks. All kinds of other great eats here too that I need to try. Be back soon.

First time here! I've heard so much about their cold cut sandwiches. So I got the Hot Pig. Everything freshly sliced in front of you. Wow, what a sandwich! Looks good and tasty.

A hidden gem of a place for the best Italian sandwiches at prepandemic prices. I’ve been two days in a row, and will likely visit again tomorrow since I’m working in the area. The Joey D sandwich (named after the owner) can feed two, filled with very generous amounts of mortadella, salami and capicola, sliced on demand. Bread is perfect, crusty but soft, I ordered two days in a row to bring back to the family. With a bit of spice and tang from the muffuletta, provolone, lettuce and tomato, it’s the most perfect sandwich. Fresh, made to order, call ahead for pickup if you don’t want to wait. Came back second day for more Joey D’s but also tried their lasagna. Multi-thin layers of noodles that gave way nicely when cut with a fork, it’s a beautiful thing smothered in their delicious meat sauce, I like it better than lasagnas from other establishments that charge $30/plate. This place isn’t fancy, it’s good honest home cooking, takeout joint in a strip plaza with a picnic table outside. Made-to-order hot and cold sandwiches, pizza, and a fabulous hot table that I can’t wait to revisit. Veal sandwiches are next on my list! They close early so check hours before heading out. Update: Visited on a Friday to discover their focaccia sandwiches (only on Fridays) and fried calamari & shrimp…OMG!

Had an amazing experience at Buon Giorno Cafe today. Was a little worried over the long line up during lunch, but it moved quickly and efficiently. I counted 12 people ahead of me but was served within 15 minutes. I ordered a veal sandwich and a deli sandwich. Both were absolutely delicious. Heaps of meat and toppings. Some of the best sandwiches that I’ve had in this city.

The reviews are accurate. This is a fantastic sandwich joint, not to be missed. I cant wait to go back. The Joey D with what seems to be house made muffaletta was magic. My wife doesnt even like sandwiches and I was fighting her off. The purveyor/owner who also goes by the name Joey D is also worth the visit. I arrived two minutes before close and he would have been well within his rights to tell me to get the hell out of there, but, instead he personally made my sandwich, even when an employee offered to step in and he kept we well entertained while he did it. Sometimes theres a man... I wont say a hero, cause, whats a hero? But sometimes, theres a man. And Im talkin about Joey D here. Sometimes, theres a man, well, hes the man for his time and place. He fits right in there. And thats the Joey D in his sandwich shop.

Buon Giorno Cafe is the best kept secret for well priced catering needs for small and large crowds. When hosting a large party, I only use Buon Giorno Cafe for catering food. The pasta sauce is authentic and delicious. The veal parmaggini is so tender and tasty. I have also ordered his breaded chicken cutlets which are moist and flavourful. The owner, Joe, is very personable, friendly and despite being very busy, he always makes time to chat with his customers. He always answers the telephone, a rare occurence in this internet driven age. I have never been disappointed with my orders. I highly recommend Buon Giorno Cafe for your catering needs. Lucia

We ordered food for our daughter s birthday party and it was delicious and such a hit! The food was delivered hot, and the food (lasagna, cannelloni, veggies, white whine chicken, penne and parmigianas) were very generously portioned. Joe made the ordering and coordination very seamless too. I would 100% cater from Buon Giorno again!

My chair/seat faced the wall. But if you re just looking for a quick bite/lunch like I was-it s not a problem. OR you can take it back to work/home & enjoy.

Hidden gem in south Etobicoke. The fresh made sandwiches are amazing. Try the porchetta with the house made muffletta sauce. Your welcome!

One of our favorite caterers! We have ordered from them many times for our business events and staff lunches. I must say, their food is quite delicious and generously portioned. What truly makes them stand out is their incredibly friendly staff and management, which makes working with them a delight. They re always accommodating for any dietary restrictions, which is a huge plus. The quality of the food is definitely worth the money. Highly recommended!

Arguably the best sandwich shop in Etobicoke. Joey D special sandwich was filling & tasty. Fresh cut deli, right in front of your eyes. Veal on a bun was fantastic. Espresso & cappuccino + food were a 10/10. Owner and staff were friendly. Definitely will be returning for the sandwiches.

Tried this place for the first time today after seeing all the positive reviews on here. Ordered 2 chicken sandwiches ($15 each w tax)In my mind the only way you could justify charging that much for a sandwich is if its by far the best in the city. It was awful. Chicken was dry and tasteless, bread was soaking wet and the toppings all basic and gross, sauce is bad, left awful taste in my mouth. Only ended up eating half & left what was leftover at the front door. I don t know what everyone else is experiencing maybe they haven t been to other similar italian bakerys and what not across the city but this is no where near 5 stars. Didn t try anything else but did see their pizza slices that looked burnt and covered with a napkin and their pasta and soup which looked literally disgusting. In my opinion should be ashamed charging what they do but is what it is, if getting away with it all the power to you. Go to san remo which is also expensive but at least you are getting decent quality. Also might want to clean your debit machine was filled with gunk on every key.

After reading reviews, we decided to try it. I only paid CAD$16 for veal plate. Even with respect to its price, its quality isnt worth it. What I could see werent even remotely close to the pictures. The taste definitely was anything but fresh.

I enjoy stopping at restaurants outside of my neighborhood so i pulled in here for a loaded veal sandwich during work. The sandwich was definitely huge, lots of veal and toppings, overall very tasty with a very nice tomato sauce. Bread was very fresh and tasty too. Ill have to try some of their famous deli sandwiches because the bread they use is top notch.

First visit did not disappoint! I came in hungry so I was ready to try one of the paninis. Mike recommended the porchetta & rapini panini with hot peppers. Jackpot! The bread was soft and the sandwich was loaded with thinly sliced porchetta to really fill you up. Great recommendation by Mike and I will be back again!

I had the Joey D sandwich and a latte macchiato and they were both excellent. There was also many varieties of other sandwiches and other warm dishes available. I can t even express how great the customer service was. The people working there treat you as if you are friends of theirs. As we sat outside we could hear them talking to the many customers that come in in the most pleasant way. It was really delightful to hear. They were super accommodating to me and my three year old son. They suggested half of the sandwich spicy and half of it mild for us without me even asking. Highly recommend to anyone passing by!!
