Generally speaking this place is pretty decent. I like the fact they have a wood oven for pizza and that’s pretty rare these days. I didn’t try their pizza but probably will in the future if I ever go this far into Scarborough. As far as the chicken sandwich, I would say it’s really may be a five or six out of 10. I compare it to California Sandwiches, which is leagues beyond this. However, of course when you compare the prices, this one is quite a bit cheaper at under $10 with toppings. You’re not getting much chicken that is for sure and the mushrooms are canned, but the peppers are decent. What’s really outstanding however is the cannoli at first I wasn’t planning on buying any anything else but a sandwich but from what I could tell, this was a legit bakery, and they made the cannolis fresh to order. All the sandwich was pretty meager. The cannolis are quite large and are quite good quality. Mostly because they are freshly made. The large cannolis are around $3.50 each so not exactly cheap. But the quality is definitely there. As far as the ambience I wouldn’t say there’s much desire to sit here and eat.. nothing like any fast food place like a California Sandwiches for example. I also bought a pizza dough from them and the guy who worked there told me that they bring the flower in from Italy so it’s not as processed. The dough itself is actually quite good from what I could tell. It doesn’t have the oily taste or smell that you find from the supermarkets so you can tell this is decent quality, but it is three dollars for 700 g. I think next time I go here I will try the pizza since it’s kind of a rarity to find woodfired pizza. Nothing here is cheap, but it looks like it’s reasonably priced although hit and miss in terms of the quantity.
