Good Italian food is easy to find in Rosedale – just come to the Italian Kitchen and Wine Bar. Located on Burnet Road across from the Sunshine Community Garden, Gusto stands for fun and enjoyment in Italian. Here at Gusto Italian Kitchen and Wine Bar, you’ll enjoy both the ambiance and the food. The restaurant has a quiet and casual atmosphere with subdued lighting, making it a nice place to go for a date. It’s also a good happy hour spot, with a nice selection of beers on tap and wines (try the house-made sangria), along with deals on apps and pizzas. And you can’t go wrong with the freshly made antipastos, pastas, and pizzas! Folks really like the signature polenta fries and the risotto. Try to come on the weekends for the brunch buffet!

The tasty art of sushi is celebrated at Maru. Located right on the corner of Burnet Road and West 47th Street, Maru doesn’t look like much from the outside, but your opinion will change when you come in. Inside, you’ll find a bright modern-casual spot with a nice sushi bar and comfortable seating. Your level of comfort will rise when you meet the friendly wait staff, who will be more than happy to help you with your dining choices. Both the traditional and spicy sushi selections are always made with the freshest seafood and other ingredients (locals like the spicy J-Roll and fresh Tuna Roll). Your order might take a while, but it’s worth it! The kitchen prepared items are also good, especially the Spicy Teriyaki and Udon Bowls. The lunch and dinner specials are tasty deals, and everything is available for takeout.
