8633 Weston Rd, Woodbridge, ON L4L 9R6, Canada
A family-run restaurant offering classic Italian cooking in an elegant, relaxed atmosphere.
EXCELLENT. I recommend coming with an empty stomach. I'm not sure how or why this isn't better rated. I've visited michelín-star restaurants, and this is either a hidden gem or worthy of such an award. Maybe because their desserts are good, but not awesome? Food is delicious, service is great. Even if the decoration may feel a bit simpler than some upscale restaurants I've visited, I'd say the experience is worth every cent.
Food was delicious and fairly priced. Came here for a birthday and every dish we had was amazing. Will definitely be coming back!
Came here today for dinner with my family for a birthday. Great service and food came in a timely matter even though we were a larger group. Calamari was great and everyone loved the pasta they ordered here. My family and I will be back.
Today, we went to Zafferano for my father in laws birthday. We had dinner, with 7 adults and 2 toddlers. Everything was great. The staff was helpful and friendly and the food was yummy! If you're eating as an Italian, the cost per person can easily be $40-$50. If not more. But it was worth it. We will definitely come back!
I’ve been to this place years ago and finally returned after a while, and I was not disappointed. The food was great and every dish we had was full of flavor. The menu is curated as Modern Italian, so it was nice to have an Italian/Spanish fusion menu aside from your traditional Italian dishes. Highly recommend the Shishito peppers, shrimp and mussel appetizers. Drinks were also great. The raspberry Moscow mule was outstanding.
Excellent Italian restaurant. Pleasant service from Bobby and delicious food! The Italian spring rolls to start with the mango mustard sauce is a must try. I would say the best around town. The Cuban lobster pasta and pizza was very yummy and both I would recommend. Very cozy dinning room and atmosphere.
A perfect intimate venue for your special party. The service was exceptionally good for a party of 60 or so. The wait staff continuously attended to our food and beverage requests. The cocktails and drinks were on point. The antipasto bar was well presented, varied and delicious. Highlight was the perfectly cooked signature fried calamari and accompanying dip. The gnocchi in rose sauce was served hot. The fresh tender pasta was enveloped with a sumptuous sauce. The Frenched Veal Chop was cooked to medium for all guests. It was flavourful and tender. I typically prefer my steaks medium rare but given the quality of this cut of meat, I had no issues eating it. The venue, meal and staff were a delight.
We just celebrated our sons 1st birthday with family and it was everything we hoped for and more. The restaurant has a great atmosphere, very clean and the private room (which we used) that was perfect. Mike and his staff (Giorgio, Leo, Dinardo and others as well) all did an incredible job answering to our guests requests and performing a wonderful service the entire evening. The food was and always is amazing!! Everything from the antipasto to the main and the entree was delicious and presented very eloquently. The biggest compliment was when all our guests messaged and called us in the days following to let us know just how much they loved the food and can't wait to go back. To Mike and everyone at Zafferano thank you for making this a wonderful and memorable day for our family. We can't wait to come back for more beautiful meals and many more beautiful celebrations.
In my opinion, Zafferano serves the best Italian food in Woodbridge. The menu is quite large and there s something for everyone - and if you have a special request, the chef is happy to accommodate. A great place for informal family dinners, corporate meals and parties. Service is always top-notch.
Great service and food
Love Zafferannos, been coming here for years the food never disappoints!! So delicious Our server Nick was so awesome !! He s so funny made today a very enjoyable experience Food
Great food. Service is very slow. Seems like they care about the bigger groups of people vs the smaller tables. Waited long to get drink on order and even longer to pay to move on with our night. Definitely gets frustrating after a long wait for the whole dinner process.
This was our second time in the last month holding a family gathering at Zafferano s. The calamari & seafood risotto were delicious. The veal chop was very tender and flavourful. A special shoutout to our server, Alesia, who made the experience even better with her outstanding service. We will definitely be back!
Food was good, just confused why you wouldnt put my mothers cake on a cake plate, would have been a way better presentation.
Have only been here for lunch. Good food and service. Prices are reasonable. Food
Excellent service! The food is really delicious!! It gives you excellent sensations at the first bite, it is really worth the detour and try the exquisite food they sell. They specialize in Italian cuisine Vegetarian options: They have everything from vegan dishes to meat dishes. Parking: The restaurant is located in a plaza type so you may not be able to find parking so easily. Kid-friendliness: There are all ages
Amazing! We had a large party of 19 and everything was outstanding. The service, the food, the prices and the atmosphere. Thanks so much for everything!
2020: Been here more than a few times for large family functions. Service and food was great each time 2023: always delicious. Great Italian food, service, and environment 2024: More pics added :)
We were 3 ladies out for lunch. Person 1 celiac and gluten free, Person 2 chromes & colitis and Person 3 diverticulitis. The server was amazing . We advised her of of dietary needs and she offer ed suggestions. They served a board of gluten free foccaci & olives to start.it was tasty. Person one had grilled chicken on a bed of polenta. Person 2 had gf pasta & chicken and Person 3 had gnocchi with red sauce. We were so pleased we all found something to enjoy off the menu. It was also one of the only restaurants open on a Monday in the area. Thank you for contributing to a successful ladies lunch. We will return again.
The service was excellent and the food was beyond amazing. I highly recommend going there. I went again this week and once again the food was amazing. The server Danny was awesome.
Excellent food and service. Also great wine list and deserts. Will be back, salute.
Even though it was busy, the food was great and the service was very good
Delicious food with great service. 10 out of 10. Thank you Nick for being a great server!
Penne Vodka and calamari was the best
Great restaurant. Food, service and atmosphere were all terrific
Excellent food and atmosphere. Has been my go to for a long time and never disappoints.
Excellent food and service in a nice environment. Been there many times and never been disappointed. Leo is awesome and so are the rest of the people there.
Fantastic service from our young wait staff. Food was very good and excellent portions and value
We went here a few months ago but I can still taste the food it was that amazing. We were 8 people 4 adults and 4 kids, they sat us down after a 20 minute wait we had no reservations and the place was packed but they still accommodated us. The service was amazing one thing was better than the other. We ordered grilled calamari, fried calamari both were amazing. For mains we ordered fettuccini tartufo omg this was soooo good, I can t tell you enough about how amazing this was. We also ordered the rigatoni bolognese and Mialinio pizza it was also amazing. Highly recommend would go back. Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly
We were there for a private function. I had the mushroom fettuccine! Soo tasty, lots of mushrooms!!
Zafferano and Nick, thank you so much for the incredible service and food. We booked our son s baptism celebration here and there was no disappointment whatsoever. Nick took care of us all the way and is very professional. Give the man a bonus or raise or something because he went above and beyond for us to make sure the late afternoon/evening was perfect. Additionally, the food was absolutely delicious. Every single person in our party complimented the food so hats off to the chef. You got a bunch of future returning customers by the sounds of it. Again, thank you for an incredible experience and glad we booked here. Kid-friendliness: They were very accommodating to kids and had a kid menu for them for the event.
Great quality and tasty food and awesome staff.
Amazing dining experience! Our server Bobby was great the service he provided was exceptional! Will definitely be back Food
One of my favourite places to go for pasta, especially their mouthwatering gnocchi which melt in your mouth!
The owner is amazing. The food and the atmosphere are 11/10+ For a picky eater that enjoys the, you get what you pay for experience. This is definitely the place for your next classy night out... Thanks, Mike, for the last-minute accommodation and superb service from you and your staff Rico
Great food especially for the price , wide variety of food on the menu , truly enjoyed the evening , great friendly staff . Definitely a must visit
My friend and I dined here tonight. We had ordered shareable style meal the bistecca with mushroom risotto, the linguine pescatore and the margharita pizza they were all prepared to perfection from taste to the garnishing of the dishes. The atmosphere was beautiful and felt so very clean. The staff were all very attentive and amazing. It took me 10+years of driving by it to finally dine here and it was definitely an amazing experience and worthwhile to say the least. God bless with plenty of success!
It was amazing. Nick was amazing and the food was wonderful. I had my sons confirmation party and it was perfect.
Just had lunch here today and wow amazing! The penne la vodka was soo flavourful that i could not help but dip my bread in the sauce great portion size and cook to perfection! We ordered the potatoe pizza and diavola pizza -amazing, cooked very well with a nice thin crust! The staff was lovely and helpful. I will definately be back!
Simply deli
Excellent food.Excellent service always consistent never disappoints
you really cant go wrong with this restaurant. Ive been going here for almost ten years and there isnt anything on the menu that I wouldnt order again.
Fantastic experience
Absolutely. Great place would definitely go back. It got 4 stars for atmosphere. Because I hate crowds. But the staff, service and food made up for anything that I could possibly have been stressing out about. Thanks so much.
Great place for a relaxing dinner , need reservations this place is always packed
Didnt get to sit and eat due to no seating arrangement for my reservation I made 3 weeks in advance for a birthday event
I made a reservation 3 weeks in advance for 8 people. When I arrived there was an engagement party and all they had were 2 seperate tables for 4. First of all, who makes a reservation for 8 and expects to be seated at 2 different tables? Many tables had people seated for 8 to 10. These people 100 percent forgot we had a reservation as they took 10 mins to put together 2 seperate tables. I asked why they could not let me know that there was a reservation, at least as a courtesy and the server stated they can reserve 8 but not guarantee that you have a table for 8 people together. I have never heard of such an answer from any restaurant. There were no apologies and the waiter was also rude when we asked if the tables could be put together. Waste of a 50 min drive to a restaurant that was recommended b y a friend. If I could give 0 stars I would.
If youre thinking of coming to this restaurant for a special occasion, think again. My party made a reservation and when we arrived, we were told that having a reservation for a specific time does not guarantee that we will be tabled at that time. We were then offered two tables that were seated in different areas in the restaurant. When we asked if the tables can be put together, we were rudely told no because it would be inconveniencing them. I assume that they forgot our reservation but instead of being apologizetic and making amends, they were extremely rude and unaccommodating. Choose somewhere else, theres tons of great restaurants in the area for your special occasion.
We made a reservation a few weeks ahead of time for a party of 8 for a birthday celebration with a group of friends. When we arrived, it seemed like they had forgotten about our reservation: there was clearly some wedding event taking place throughout the entire restaurant and we were asked to wait about 10 minutes after which they showed us to two tables of four that were separated from each other. We were pretty confused about this since, of course, we made a reservation ahead of time so that we could sit together. We tried asking one of the staff whether we could put the two tables together and were met with a very curt, bordering on rude, reply from them saying that we could not as it would block the walking area. We tried to ask why we had to sit separately since we had made a reservation and their response was that they could only guarantee the seat but not guarantee that we could sit together. To us, it was pretty clear that they had forgotten our reservation, and instead of admitting and offering any kind of apology, they gave us this half-baked excuse. We would have been fine if they had at least admitted to us that they made a mistake. Ultimately, we chose to leave and go to Grazie instead, which had great service and were able to accommodate our large party. It is a shame because we were recommended Zafferano by our friends but it was sadly ruined by our poor encounter with their staff.
Where do I start? We ve been going there for years for family occasions. The food is top notch. My kids will say the best pizza and best pasta in the world Myself, I prefer the salmon but also indulge in the appetizers and cocktails. Mike makes us feel like family ever single time. Robbie and the other waiters are super friendly and great to talk to. The atmosphere; too many words to describe how great it is! We live 2 hours away and I can tell you we start getting excited about coming down to Zafferano s 2-3 days before. Everyone and Everything about this establishment is out of this world. Sorry no pictures. Too busy eating.
Food was delicious. Service was ok. Surprised the lubster claws did not come with tools so it s more like a for your eyes only thing.
I have been going to Zafferano for almost 20 years now. Theyve always had an amazing menu selection with big portions leaving you stuffed! This will always remain my number one spot for great pasta and better service! Ps, try the pappardelle zafferano or any of the specials of the night.
Went to Zafferano for a bridal shower. The ambience was lovely, very modern and clean. The food was fantastic everything served was delicious and cooked perfectly. The service was also impeccable.
Overall this place hits all the points to be visited for your next meal, if your in this region. Ill recommend this one for sure. Food
Typical pompous Italian restaurant. Overpriced food; bungling service.
Come here yearly for the last 4 or so years and have to say service was the worst I have ever seen. Empty restaurant and still took 1.5hrs to get a main. Had to flag a bus boy down after 45 minutes to get water. Used to be a huge fan, will not be going back. Good no longer compensates for the service
Food is amazing! Best pizza ever!
Sat April 13, Georgio provided an exceptional dining experience for my mother-in-laws birthday celebration. He was professional, informative, and courteous throughout our visit. The fettuccine sapore was simply amazing, and the extensive menu made choosing a dish a delightful challenge. Georgio ensured our group of 13 had its own space, adding a personal touch to the occasion. Highly recommended for anyone seeking superb service and delectable cuisine.
I come here bi-monthly and there is a reason why. Food, service and atmosphere is always consistently good. Wine list is pretty good. The specials are always exciting. I cannot understand how someone can come here and not have a great experience.
Had a fantastic experience here. The food came out quickly servers were very friendly and the establishment was very clean. What more can you ask for from a restaurant. The pasta was exceptionally cooked, and calamari was absolutely on point. I would recommend anybody try this place who has never been
I have been going here for years and their service and food keeps improving. Thank you so much for delicious food and top notch service:) Food
Amazing Staff, Mike was attending to us, he was friendly, welcoming and ensured our requests were met. The food is really good, and the ambience is amazing! Vegetarian options: They have veggie options and pizza was really good.
Amazing
Great food, great service, great drinks
Overpriced restaurant in an industrial unit in Vaughan. Great decor but that s not what I m eating. Food was ok but considerably overpriced. Will not be back.
Always considered the Best by all our family and friends, Bobby and all the staff are wonderful!
This restuarant hands down is the best! By far the best restaurant I have ever visited. Great menu, excellent service. It is always my first choice for any occasion. You are made to feel very welcome and very special. Mike the owner is so accommodating and sweet !
Bobby was great. Food was amazing drinks were great desserts even better. 10 out of 10 would highly recommended amazing service.
Zafferano is definitely a top Italian restaurant in the GTA, both for casual meals and formal events!! Weve had a few meals in this restaurant leading up to our wedding reception. The food taste and presentation were top class yet the pricing was surprisingly very reasonable. Their services were impeccable! Mike (owner of this restaurant) was really great in working out the details and logistics for our wedding reception, from décor to restaurant layout to audio visual needs. Despite his busy schedule, he really took time and effort to make sure all aspects of our event went well. The wedding reception was perfect thanks to Mike and his team! We would strongly recommend anyone looking to host events to consider this restaurant. All the best.
We had an absolutely fantastic meal, great food and fabulous service. Our server was very attentive without being pushy. The timing was great as we had a very relaxing, dining experience. Dietary restrictions: They were very accommodating about my garlic allergy Parking: Lots of parking right beside the restaurant
Pricey, but good is very good. Service and atmosphere is great Food
The food here is great. The portions are filling, food is fresh and delicious. Their house red was good too. They have a nice private area for events if required. Overall, great vibe, service, and food. Thanks Mike
Pizza and pasta of course! Both great meals, pasta was bit too aldente however, they made a whole new meal for me when I made a comment about it. Amazing service and wonderful staff. Great food as well.
We popped in with a party of 20 people and they handled it flawlessly. This place was beyond belief and I have no idea how its rating isn t higher. We tried the gnocco with prosciutto and honey truffle oil and the pesce- the fried whitefish shrimp and calamari with 2 sauces. Both of these apps were INSANE. The fish quality and cook was phenomenal. Our guests had all kinds of dishes and loved them all, including penne alla vodka, salmon, steak, etc. I personally had a special - a stuffed bone-in veal chop filled with ricotta e prosciutto cotta. It came with potatoes and rapini. I cannot stress how on point this stuff was. This is stuff Gordon Ramsay would enjoy. The veal was SO SOFT. It s filling was exploding with flavour. The rapini was very strong with garlic, so perfect. The potatoes were perfectly crispy on the outside, pillowy soft on the inside, and well seasoned. For dessert I had the house made lava cake guys trust me this is as good as it gets. Anyways, I would highly recommend this place to anyone. I ve eaten at nearly 300 places - this is top 5.
Great food and service. Was there with 5 other friends and we had a great time. Will go again.
Went here to buy a couple gift cards for my clients. Very friendly staff. The bartender offered me a coffee while I was waiting. I can t say I ve ever experienced that level of service before. The other bartender who was processing my payment was also super friendly. The entire staff were very welcoming, and I was literally just buying a gift card. There s a reason people rave about this place. I will definitely be back to dine in!
The pastas were all well made, really enjoyed the pan fried gnocchi and the chilli oil that they offer is so much more flavourful than most I ve tried.
The best italian restaurant!
Their food is excellent and they have high quality yet well priced cocktails/wine. Zafferano never misses!! Our family will be back
Went there for the new year party, food was good, except my meat was over cooked, ticket were 150.00 each, alittle pricey with only 1 glass of wine and 1 glass of champagne but over all a good night
My family and I had an amazing night at Zafferano for New Year s eve! Service, food, atmosphere and drinks were amazing! We will definitely be back :)
We celebrated our cousins 28th wedding anniversary in this restaurant over the past weekend. While entering the restaurant we were greeted by a staff member who showed us to our table. Within few minutes our server with a beautiful smile introduced herself and took our drinks and food selection. Every item from what we ordered was absolutely delicious! We felt like we were in Italy! Washrooms were clean also. Parking: The restaurant has lots of parking because it s located in an outdoor plaza.
Exceptional food matched only by the unparalled service. We celebrated our daughters champagne 13th birthday. From making the reservation with Bobby, to greeting us early the day of to let us set up the room, to the service led by Jorjo the day of and follow up afterwards.....incredible!!! We travel and eat out quite a bit and can confidentily say this was the best experience we have every had. The room was gorgeous - the family at Zafferano (and they really did treat us like family) were generous enough to book us the private room. We had dedicated staff, a coat closet for our guests, separate tables set up for gifts, and for cake and some non-alcholic pink champagne (which my daugheter was trilled about because she really wanted to have a sip of champagne or her special champagne birthday - and the team made it such a special experience for her - beautiful champagne glasses, arranged beautifully and with such care on her cake table). I have never had a more attentive, professional, KIND & ATTENTIVE restaurant staff. Most are tooo attentive, and so professional that there is no genuine care...at Zafferano we really felt like we celebrated with the Zafferano family. We werent rushed out the door (even though we were one of the last to leave), noone rushed us to get the bill or stood over us waiting for payment...Jorgo very discreetly pulled me aside and walked me through it. And we were so pampered that Jorjo even saved one of the few special decorations/macaroons on my daughters cake to place specifically on her piece of cake and my own - thats how much care he took and the attention he gave. None of our guests had ever been to the restaurant before. They were overly impressed, couldnt stop raving about the food and service....I think youll be seeing alot more of them. Grazie Zafferano - you gave us full bellies and wonderful memories. You will definitely see us back again soon and we cannot wait to celebrate other special moments with you (our family was already asking about what our plans were for my daughters birthday next year...hint hint...nudge..nudge) Un Grande Abbraccio Tracey, Matthew & Birthday Girl Ella
Giorgio was an amazing server, pleasure meeting him.
Giorgio was the best! The food was amazing. I cant wait to come back!!
Amazing food. Giorgio is the best. We enjoyed his service.
My visit to Zafferano was amazing. The service was fantastic from Nico the bartender and Bobby my waiter. They were vary kind and made sure I got the best experience!
We always get the pizza takeout when we are in the area. Its amazing! The vegetarian pizza and the zafferano pizza are a big hit. Vegetarian options: There is a delicious veggie pizza with beautifully roasted vegetables, and an excellent mushroom risotto.
This is a fabulous restaurant. The food was amazing the service was amazing. I gave a 3 out of 5 for atmosphere only because the tables were so close together and there is barely any room between them. I could hear the conversations at the tables beside us. A little loud as well. If you dont mind that then this will be the perfect place for dinner with family, friends, or that special someone. I will dine there again!
Had a private function, Bobby was great to deal with and everything ran smoothly. The wait staff were exceptional, especially Garcia, impeccable, concierge service! The food was great too! Would highly recommend!
Good food. Service was ok. Some of the menu items are way overpriced for what they are.
Food was decent, nothing special. Service was super slow. We arrived at 7:30pm, we got our food at 9:40pm. Even to ask for a extra fork or a cup of ice took ages. Restaurant wasnt to busy on a Friday night, but to reflect on how slow the service was, you would think this place would be crazy busy with lineups out the door.
Always a great meal. Our table wasnt the best, once one was available they moved us without issue
Best Italian restaurant I have ever eaten at...never had a bad meal and the warm mushroom salad app. Is to die for...
Very good Italian, service was excellent and nice atmosphere.
I came to this restaurant after a work conference and was very impressed. I was greeted at the door by one of the hostess Chiara. She was very nice and quite funny and made some great recommendations. My waiter came by shortly after, Giorgio, and carried on the service. The food was amazing , I ordered the calamari friti to start and we got both the penne vodka & the papperdelle Zafferano! Food was flavourful and enjoyable, and ambiance was exactly what me and my wife were looking for! Thank you for the wonderful service. 5 stars.
Amazing food, a little noisy because very busy, but great place to eat!
My husband and I celebrated our anniversary here . First time trying this restaurant food and service was unbelievable. Our server was on point 5 steps ahead of our needs. Great wine selection too Thanks agin
It felt rushed food came out quickly and I had 2 waiters constantly coming around asking if I wanted anything else. I just wanted to relax enjoy the company and no feel rushed
Great food...great service....great atmosphere. Forget about it!
Attend a bridal shower on March 26. The food was amazing. The service was outstanding. Thank you so much for making my day Kid-friendliness: Welcoming and got drinks and coffee very fast. Wheelchair accessibility: Washroom
From start to finish, this place is worth 10 stars. The service is excellent, and the food is amazing. Giorgio was super great and a pleasure to have as our server. Everyone was super friendly and always smiling. I could go on and on about the food. Deep fried gnocchi, arancinni, Zafferano salad, penne a la vodka....it was a party in my mouth. I cannot WAIT to go back.
Excellent service. Tad overpriced for the quality. My pasta was a tad tough. My sisters seafood was overcooked. But it all tasted great. Great flavours. Dietary restrictions: You can request your food to be made specifically...no bacon, more checked etc. Parking: In a plaza. Lots of parking Kid-friendliness: Amazing staff Wheelchair accessibility: Its all ground floor level
I came here tonight to celebrate my anniversary. I was absolutely blown away by the food and the service. Giorgio catered to my boyfriends and I every needs. The Burratina was to die for. I highly recommend Zafferano to all future patrons.
Nice atmosphere, great food and awesome staff. Our server giorgio was hilarious and gave great pointers for our meals. Definitely recommend!
My husband and I celebrated my mothers birthday for lunch. The day we got there, there were many other large tables celebrating other events. Giorgio was our waiter and although he was also super busy with the large tables, he gave the most amazing service to the 3 of us. We were so impressed. Our food and meals were beyond delicious. We all said it was the best pasta dishes we have ever tasted at an Italian restaurant. Giorgio and all the other staff kept checking on us you see if we needed anything. Both the food and service was by far the best we have experienced at any Italian restaurant in years. 5 stars is not enough. I give this restaurant 10 stars for food and service and we will always highly recommend this restaurant to everyone. We will be back many times again. Sharon Baker Parking: There are vegetarian and gluten free options on the menu. Parking is easy and there is no shortage of parking in strip mall
All of the food was amazing and service was even better. Michael Garcia was attentive, knowledgeable and made some great recommendations we absolutely loved! Overall great experience!
Great place... Nice ambience and staff, definitely Italian....
We ate at Zafferano last night for a client dinner with a group of 12. The food, service, and overall experience were excellent. Giorgio was our server and not a thing was missed. I highly recommend the trek out to Woodbridge for this fantastic experience - you won t be disappointed!
The only reason I cant mark this place as a 5 star, it was incredibly busy and noisy, to the point of us rushing through our main course and not ordering a dessert.... Trying to escape the noise
Love the gluten free options here!
Great dining experience. Everything tasted fresh and the drinks were fantastic. Server was very professional and the food came out so quick. Would love to come back again!!
I was here to attend a friend s wedding banquet. The location is easy to find, lots of parkings. The interior of the restaurant is pretty!! I liked the Calamari, it s gigantic!! The Salmon I had that night was great! The Salmon was still very hot after sitting on my table for 5-10 mins, and it s very tender inside, it s amazing! I especially like the servers, because they are very attentive even in this 100 pple banquet!! They are smart to tell what you need from an eyesight!! I would like to come back to try their regular menus
This is the best Italian restaurant in Vaughan!!! The steak is better than the keg!!! Trust me!!! Owners and staff are the best too!! If you don t eat here regularly your missing out!!!
This was our first time at this amazing restaurant. We are from Kingsville and drove here to celebrate a family confirmation. We cannot say enough about the service, beautiful atmosphere, and amazing food. The serve staff were so attentive to each and every one of us, the presentation of the food extreme, and the quality was out of this world! What a beautiful event, and beautiful venue.
Zafferano, an eatery we recently visited, left us thoroughly impressed. We savored their delightful antipasto misto, penne alla vodka, veal chop, calamari fritti, and polenta fries all delicious! Our waiter, Giorgio, added a touch of humor to our dining experience. The communion celebration was a success, thanks to Mikes exceptional service and attention to detail, ensuring the mother and all guests were content. The eatery also accommodated the young ones with chicken fingers, fries, and pizza. Overall, I left Zafferano extremely satisfied.
Very delicious pasta dishes! I highly recommend the FUNGHI GRATTINATI. Food
Beautiful restaurant in Woodbridge. Great food, service and atmosphere!
Really good italian food and great service from the staff
Great service and atmosphere. Great tasting food. Small pasta portions.
Great place to hold your special occassion or for a family dinner.
Great food. Never disappoints.
Hosted my daughters Bridal Shower recently and my guests had a wonderful experience! From the ambiance to the service, it was amazing! A big thank you to Leo for his incredible service. I have recommended Zafferano to friends and family for future events. Thank you again for making this experience extra special for my daughter
We had 3 people waiting on us so everything came fast. Portions were large and everything was hot. The pasta was great and the calamari melted in your mouth. 10 people $600. $10 per person these days in a semi formal restaurant is pretty good. Vegetarian options: Salads. Grilled veggies. Cheese pizza. Plenty of pasta,s.
Can never go wrong with dining here. The food is absolutely fantastic.
Excellent food. A staple in Woodbridge. Hey the fried calamari...yummy. Parking: Always lots of parking Kid-friendliness: High chairs if needed Wheelchair accessibility: No grading issues
Lunch on Sunday around 3:30Pm for 2. Place wasn t too busy. Server seems arrogant and no idea on suggesting menu item or to explain it clearly. Got the sword fish which was ok but the spaghetti pesto was garbage, remind you it s not a cheap place to eat! Management should pay attention to service and engage with the customers to get feedback . Giving 2 stars because I personally used to like this place and it s clean atmosphere
Absolutely one of the best restaurant I ve ever been to!!! I d give them 100 starts if I could! The service was superb, our waiter was thoughtful, caring and witty. Service staff were very attentive and on point. Food was breathtakingly good, we could not stop eating. Starting from the calamari lightly breaded sprinkled with sea salt and the arancini with the perfect meat, to cheese, to rice ratio and perfect crispy outside with the most perfectly seasoned tomato sauce doused with high quality parmigiana cheese. The mains; amazing seafood linguine with the rosè sauce was filled to the brim with seafood, the pasta was perfectly al dente and the rosè sauce just pulled the whole thing together. On the specials of the day was a lamb roast on bed of risotto infused in fings and side of perfectly seasoned asparagus. Finished it off with the one of a kind crème brûlée. We were extremely full but could not stop eating, the food was just THAT incredible. I have to say you should not miss this place even if you can only go once in your life.
Good food Little over priced Service was So/So Food : 4/5
Zafferano is one the most authentic ltalian restaurants you will find in Vaughan. Their pasta is fresh made in house and every dish is delish made with good quality ingredients. It s our go to for over 20 years. I recommend the Pappardelle Zafferano, Italian egg rolls, gnocco fritto OMG ( trust me on this one), pescatore risotto and so much more.
Love this place. Server Giorgio was very nice. The chef Mike never a disappointment...cooking and delish food!!!
Great food but feels like chef has been changed. Its been a while since i visited resteraunt. Lots changed. Little over crowded and service was slow somewhat. The end of the nite was a shocker because they have their own formula to calculate and was an extreme. Very surprised and shocked at all totals. I think dinner is way overpriced for subpar quality. It has declined over the years. Sad to see. Lost loyal customer of 20 yrs. The biggest surprise is the tip. Huge number
We had a family get-together and Alesia was our server. She was so friendly, attentive and efficient. The food was one of the best meals we have had!
Nice place and food was amazing, to say the least. Buchers cut steak was good.
Great value for food.
We had a spontaneous night out with family and decided to go to Zafferano. In our opinion, the menu seemed limited and the prices for food were mostly on the higher end. The calamari appetizer had around 8 pieces and was very chewy. The fungi pasta dish was too oily, and the seafood platter had bitter greens. We also found the atmosphere a little too dark. Overall, we did not find the portions or taste of the food worth the price paid.

We hosted our engagement party here and we couldn t be happier. Bobby helped us organise the event for 65 people and we were beyond impressed with our overall experience. The food was spectacular , the service was very quick and they helped us set up exactly what we wanted. We will definitely be hosting future events here! Totally Recommend.
Delicious Italian food and wonderful atmosphere. Had a team lunch here and got a beautiful private room. Lots of gluten-free options as well! Dietary restrictions: Gluten free options
Many thanks to the owner of the restaurant and all the stuff from Marko and Veronika. On Saturdays, October 21 our family and friends ( about 30 people all together) went to the Zafferano Ristorante for my husbands mom 90th birthday, it was excellent over there: the food was delicious, the service was superb, amazingly decorated. The owner of the restaurant was an amazing person to deal with. All our family and friends were happy with the food and service and they said to us that it was a great choice for us to come and celebrate there. We are also happy to find this an amazing restaurant because we are planning to come there again.
Excellent food
Good food, good service ,good alcohol beer and wine selection
Went for a funeral lunch so food was pre ordered as a buffet with pizza, pasta , cold cuts , grilled veggies , calamari and fresh bread. All were very good and service was nice and respectful. Restaurant was elegant and impeccably clean.Overall it was a good place for this type of gathering.
Food is hit and miss but a nice restaurant. Was there twice in 2 weeks and had one really nice dish (fried gnocchi with pecorino) and one tasteless dish (the special spaghetti vongole)
Fantastic restaurant through and through. Hosted a retirement party here in the private room for lunch and Zafferano was the utmost accommodating to every request I had. The servers were friendly and helpful from the second I stepped foot in the door to set up, I wish I got their names but the lady and gentleman who served us had the party going so seamlessly and ran the operation like a well oiled machine. I would recommend this restaurant to any one for any get together I will surely come back, it was fantastic for everyone.
Celebrated a retirement party here. The staff were helpful and accommodating.
Great food, good service but a little loud.
Had lunch with a friend. Food always great. Wait staff friendly. Great experience Parking: Free and lots right in front of restaurant
First time at this restaurant. Recommended by other family members. Celebrated a 95th birthday. The service was absolutely unbelievable. Everyone was so nice and attentive. it does get busy on a Saturday. I would recommend going for an early dinner if possible. Kid-friendliness: Provided a high chair and booster chair. Chicken nuggets and fries for the kids.
Came here on a busy Saturday night without reservations (during the holiday season) and they were very friendly about accommodating us. Food and service were exceptional! Gamberi appetizer was sooo good and so were our pastas. Have been here a few times and the food never disappoints, great spot for a family gathering or date night.
Steak was overdone and bone dry. Risotto had no salt.
The food was very good. Whatever I didnt finish, I had for dinner the next day. Vegetarian options: They had some nice salads, which you could add some protein. Dietary restrictions: Gluten free mostly.

Amazing time every time!! Bobby and Nick were our servers and they were fantastic.
The food is fantastic! However service is poor, our server Nick had an attitude and kept making rude comments to the four of us. Wont be coming back.
I came here for a Christmas party with my family. We were close to 60 people. The staff is not friendly at all, and hardly organized. The food was nothing much to brag about. I m not sure how they have so many positive reviews as I am not a picky person at all.. At one point the waiter snapped at me for asking for my drink. The real disappointing part here was the gratuity that they automatically add onto your bill, which was hardly deserved. I would never be back.
Food was great the atmosphere was good! I would go again!
Held our Company Christmas dinner here amazing food vantastic service will be back. Vegetarian options: Stuffed Gnochie Salad
