Friendly staff, good portion, busy place meaning fresh food. They made me wait for fresh pasta rather then giving me the dry bottom of the pan stuff... says alot about service in a good way
Our dining experience at this exceptional establishment exceeded expectations. Marco and his team demonstrated outstanding hospitality, treating us with the warmth and care typically reserved for family. The cuisine was both flavourful and fresh, with pricing that was reasonable and fair. We look forward to returning in the future! Thank you, Marco and staff, for a memorable and delicious experience. Can't wait to come again!
Canosa’s catered for my mother’s funeral reception. All the food was delivered on time, freshly made and piping hot. It was absolutely the best Italian homemade lasagna ,veal and rice balls. We had many family members complement the food and service. Thanks to Marco & his wonderful staff for making the process as seamless as possible. I highly recommend Canosa’s place and will definitely be ordering again!
Food - I purchased the steak sandwich. Flavor wise, it was pretty good. Well cooked and the taste was subtle but pleasant. However, a decent portion of the steak was fat, which covered about 10% of it and the meat was a bit chewy - Bread was fluffy and buttery flavored - Ingredients are up to your discretion but you will pay a fee for each add on Service - Staff was friendly enough, I believe with some training taking place - They accepted cash, debit and credit, including AMEX Location - There was parking but not ample considering they are sharing parking with a dozen other companies in the same strip plaza - It's easy enough to find if you know what you are looking for but hidden a bit off the main street Ultimately, it's not a bad sandwich but nothing really special either. I may return to try something else on their menu but you won't be missing out if you skip this spot
A very cozy space and a great place for breakfast and lunch! P.s I highly recommend the cappuccino (I may have had a bit before the photo😅)
Good place with good food ! I took the steak 🥩 . Had asked for medium rare but got medium well but it tasted good , the pasta was fresh aldente and mashed potato was delicious! The bread was a little tough but ok . Price seemed a little steep for the dish but not too bad , they have other options as well but need to update the price on the screens I guess . might repeat if I’m close by ! Staff was very friendly and professional as well !
Fair 5* to these guys! So friendly warm atmosphere in the morning 🤗! Everyone knows each other, marking jokes and laughing, accompanied with good quality food 🍳🥓🥩🥞🤌! Oh and coffee is good☕, croissants are freshly baked 👌🥐Recommended if you want to start your day with good vibes!☀️👌 P.s. additional respect to the lady in the front desk -she is a star 🌟!
Place is hidden away along a strip of other stores but certainly not to be overlooked, old school vibe, food was great, and the service was fast enough, would certainly come back and try out the lunch/dinner options, we had the canosa breakfast and it was a good choice.
Great food
This place is awesome! Hearty meals offered, generous portions, variety of italian homemade style. Love it!
Rude waitresses cold food
Used to be good, fell off, stale bread, butter staff, unwelcoming atmosphere.
Such a great place!! Wonderful Italian food!!!
Pizza was great.
Good selection at the hot table, I ordered porchette sandwich and it was great! Will be back.
I like the place. The food and the service was good but I made a mistake of ordering the coleslaw which I ate for dessert. Yes it was that sweet! Way too much sugar. Actually the sweetest coleslaw Ive ever tasted.
Great place, wish it was closer to me!
We catered for a office party. Ordered rose penne pasta and eggplant Parm, both items were amazing! Lots of great vegetarian options! Can t wait to go try some of the other items on the menu!
Got a slice of pepperoni and a deli sandwich! Both were very very good ! Smelled delicious inside ! Can t wait to come back for lunch again ! Thank you very much
Great people delicious food
Great food! Owner even suggested a few items that would go with the menu I had in mind. But made sure I did not over order. The dessert was also a huge hit with the guests! Will definitely go back again!
Fantastic
Good service, good food. Have been there many times now and I dont have any complaints. The instagram stories of the daily menu are really helpful! Keep posting them.
I used to work in the area, over 15 years ago. Nearly everything has changed, businesses open and close, but the one constant is Canosas. Still in business, still has its loyal regulars, and still quality. Pastas and meats are very good. Sandwich bread is fresh.
Great tasting food and coffee !
Very friendly atmosphere, The pretty girl with the arm tats was very nice, Food was amazing, I got the chicken breast, pasta and veggies. 10/10 wish I took a pic before munching, but I couldnt stop after that test bite
Excellent food taste, quality and price if looking for genuine homemade Italian cuisine. You have to try it yourself to fully appreciate.
Ok kind of a late review, its a few years ago, but here goes. Canosas was absolutely fantastic! Catered the reception event when my dad passed. The food was perfect, everything was delicious and made in that certain Italian authenticity, delivered and set up on time and piping hot, everyone loved it. The staff was really great from our initial meeting to the end. Thank you very much!
Best pizza in the area, the crust is amazing! Also, the soup is delicious.
Marco and crew are awesome, definitely making it a regular place to visit for lunch
Ordered lunch on Ubereats and I will be a ordering again soon! Daily Pasta in tomato sauce was fresh and delicious , definitely can taste it s Italian home-made sauce! Veal on a bun with sweet peppers was perfectly cooked, fresh! Great portions too!
Steak sandwich wasnt not great But heard that the veal sandwitches are good Food
Its a little pricey but the food is excellent

Great Breakfast Pastries and Coffee. Quick service
Incredible little place, amazing true Italian food, only open until 2pm but thats ok, its worth it!!! Their meatballs and Italian sausage is to die for!!! Along with their steak sandwiches, fresh buns, amazing pasta and incredibly friendly service, they always make you feel at home!!!
Great place for breakfast quick eats and lunch
Amazing food and more importantly where I was iterally treated like family. First time customer just today and will be going back regularly. Thank you for an great experience!
Delicious Pizza, Good Portion size
I placed an order for pick up at 7am. It was confirmed, and on the day of pick up, at 7:50am, the order was still not completed, nor had it even been started at 7am. We have a team of field technicians who need to be on the road by 8am. If you can not accommodate an early order, do not accept one.
Had some catering done, it was delicious with good portions. On time and reliable.
Excellent service and food
Amazing, fresh, homemade food! Very fair prices and super friendly staff. Its a bit of a drive for me, but definitely worth it and I will be back!
great food
Wonderful customer service. Always feel welcome when you walk in those doors. Food is ALWAYS fresh and tasty. Catering service is always on point. A must try when craving some Italian goodness.
Decent Italian spot for lunch but very over priced.
I ve had the veal sandwich 3 times here before. Always very well prepared by the same associate, today a different associate made my sandwich. She cut off the top 1/4. Which left 3/4 inch top and a nice 2 inch plus bottom. Nice. I asked if she would provide me with another bun she stated that s the way the bun comes while I was looking at a perfectly cut bun beside her. Oh well I left. Lesson learned.
Great variety of delicious foods.. breakfast bun is a must try !
Ordered the antipasto, pasta with rose, chicken, veal, grilled veggies and a salad for about 30 people (for my daughters baptism) and there was nothing left!! It was a hit!! Everyone had nothing but amazing things to say about the food!!! Thank you Canosa s place for being a part of my daughters day, food was AMAZING!!!
Food was delicious!! Their veal sandwich is very tasty, served on their amazing buns! Service is always very friendly and welcoming!
Amazing food! We ordered catering for a big party and the food was fantastic! I would definitely cater from here again. Friendly convenient service and amazing Italian food- you must try it :)
Excellent hot table food is great love this place
Best Place for Breakfast

Everything is good and fresh . And yes very important when they cook food love and serve with same love and
Amazing food amazing staff and the owner is a great guy highly recommend this place
Its not a bad place for a quick lunch. Friendly service. The chicken sandwich was not the best I have had.
Love it
Our first experience was a Christmas friends get together that my cousin catered from Canosa. We loved the food, I had them cater our New Year Eve party for 35 people. The food was amazing again. Marco and his team passed the biggest test when they provided the food for a luncheon following my aunts funeral. 60 of the toughest critics all loved his food. Considering my Italian aunts are all amazing cooks in the kitchen and have hosted large parties of their own. This meal hit the spot. The highest compliment is when your guests get up and go for more. Always a positive vibe when calling or going in. Thank you Marco and the Team at Canosa! See you soon!
Great food
Best fresh food!
One of my FAVOURITE lunch spots! I go here at least once a week.
Amazing fresh italian hot table!
Canosa s is a place where the food tastes just like the way my mom cooked when I was a kid! The staff are always friendly and the food is always fresh! I never go a lunch or breakfast without passing buy to see what they got on the menu, it s always changing.
Every time I m treated with a smile and some of the best food in the city.
Amazing fresh food, love the staff...very friendly. Food tastes just like home, always delicious!
This place always makes me happy. Great food selection. Italian Savory dishes or simple Meat and potatoes. (BEST POTATOS EVER) Specials change daily. My family dines in and takes out. Neighborhood Gem.
Marco and his staff are amazing . been coming here for years nothing but top notch food and friendly service always.
Great food and prices
Fantastic food and very friendly service. Highly recommended.
Authentic Italian food.
Excellent service, food and quality. Definitely a repeat
At the cash when i was waiting to pay for my food I Jokingly said to put my food on the persons tab that was paying for her food in front of me (she was getting food to go). The cashier told me to go sit and pay after you finished eating. That person that was ahead of me stopped at my table on her way out and said your lunch and the lunch of your colleague is paid for. I was taken off guard by this and thanked her. I thought about this gesture for the rest of the day and the impact of her kindness was not taken lightly. In a constant bad news greedy world this gesture was so amazing and for everyone that I told this story to it created a feel good environment. I want her to know that I am looking for an opportunity to paying forward her kind gesture and hopefully start a chain reaction of this feel good gesture. BTW the food is always great.
It was good food
Good service and good food
Lunch. Before 2pm always great. Thursday porchetta best!

Fantastic!!!!
Good food, well prepared. Generous portions. I always get more than expected .
Deep, delicious lasagna, crisp salad, crispy bread etc Portions are generous. They catered our work function and everyone wanted to take the leftovers home...no waste when I order from them.
Good food, lots of food options
Very good friendly staff
Marco and staff make the best lasagna and pizza money can buy! The hot table they have during the week is also delicious.
Awesome
Always fresh quality ingredients
The best staff and the food is awesome. Just like home.
Excellent place for lunch.
Normally this is a nice place with good food - but only as long as you remain on the good side of the owner - Marco - who can - at any time start screaming at any customer who may have a legitimate complaint. They offer take-out food and when a customer places an order, he or she should expect to receive what they ordered. However, at Canosa - this is not the case - you get what they give you and if you complain - then Marco - the owner confronts you and starts verbally abusing you with screaming and threats. Obviously this place is going down hill - I would recommend anyone wanting decent food with verbal abuse to look elsewhere!
Amazing food for great prices. I love the breakfast sandwiches, veal and chicken parmesan, their lasagna, various pasta dishes, porchetta, etc.
Great place, great staff, great owner, great food...all home made
My Italian friend recommended this place for catering my small family event and i could not be happier with the food and service. The food was hot and freshly made and delicious! The price is also very reasonable!
Great breakfast. Friendly staff.
Terrible. they make you feel like an outsider and are very rude. They stare you down and talk behind your back in Italian
I was recommended to come here from a co worker, it did not disappoint. Very good steak sandwich.
The food was excellent and the service was just as good as the food. Highly recommend this place.
One of the best breakfast bakerys in the Rexdale area. Only open til 3pm but, its a reason to leave work early if you ask me. Its that good. From eggs to veal parms, its gooooood
Love love love the pizza. Just had the steak sandwich the other day because they were out of pizza. Now I am not sure what i am going to get there the next time I go.
My second home
Very good fresh food
Genuine Italian food. Good environment.
Amazing pizza and veal sandwiches.
Great spot to grab lunch for a good selection of fresh Italian style food. Reasonably priced. Good breakfast place too.
Authentic italian food. Catering is excellent I have used them for all my occasions

Such a hidden gem! Amazing staff & great authentic Italian food for affordable prices. A must try whenever youre in the area!
Amazing. Amazing. Amazing. Did I mention that its amazing ?
