" Just visited Tosca Cafe for the first time, and I'm already planning my next trip. The service was attentive, the decor was charming, and the food came quickly. I had the lumache and it was delicious, but the portions were slightly smaller than I had hoped. Still very good overall! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delicious experience! The ambiance is lovely, and the staff seemed very eager to please. However, I was a bit disappointed that the pasta was a bit bland. It didn’t grab my attention the way I hoped it would, although the dessert was divine. A mix of highs and lows. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been to a lot of Italian restaurants, but Tosca really does stand out! The flavors were fresh and vibrant. The pasta had good texture, and the chicken parm was heavenly. Even the cocktails were crafted expertly. I left feeling delighted with my experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Dinner at Tosca Cafe was a delight! The service was excellent, and the dishes were well-portioned and flavorful. I particularly enjoyed the truffle gnocchi and the calamari. A highly recommend this place for anyone craving excellent Italian food! " (*Curated Review*)

" My dining experience at Tosca Cafe was just okay. I expected more given the hype. My pasta was overcooked, and the flavors were all muddled together. The atmosphere was nice, but I would have preferred better food quality. A little disappointed. " (*Curated Review*)
