With the current stay at home order and inability to dine out on Valentine's Day, I took to Google to locate a good place to prepare dinner for girlfriend, her family and myself. The reviews were quite positive and, to be honest, the owner and staff that I interacted with over the phone and in the restaurant at time of pick up were very pleasant and helpful. Unfortunately, the meal was quite disappointing. When I arrived to collect the orders, they were not quite ready for pick up - no problem as I was not in any rush. I watched the orders placed in the bag and thanked the gentlemen and left. Upon unpacking the orders, this is where things were less than stellar: 1. Of two separately packaged shrimp appetizers, one had an excessive amount of the red seafood sauce while the other had almost none. 2. The veal medallions looked good, but upon trying them, they were incredibly tough and truly unappetizing. 3. The pasta appetizer was incredibly plentiful, but very clumpy and not palatable. Neither my girlfriend nor I could finish the pasta due to this fact. 4. We ordered 2 Valentine's specials and was asked if everything could go in the same bag. No problem as it was all going to the same place. However, it was two separate orders with two separate shared desserts. The Tiramisu desserts (four pieces) were where squeezed into one container and were not very appetizing. 5. This might be the most disappointing of all: the temperature of everything was, in my opinion, unacceptable. As I watched the order packed in the restaurant I assumed it would be hot when unpacked at home (less than a 10 minute drive from restaurant - Dundas & Mavis area). Every portion of the cooked meal was cold. Unfortunately, I don't expect that I will be able to frequent this establishment again as the cost of the two meals on Valentine's Day were somewhat expensive (which is expected) but the food just did not warrant the price paid. In good conscience, I cannot recommend Ombretta for a meal.

Definitely a gem is Portcredit, we loved everything about our meal. Fantastic service and amazing fresh quality food!! Would highly recommend to all my friends.
I would give full stars if the waiter was normal. He was just too weird and made us very uncomfortable. We would be mid conversation and he would loom over us and then just walk away. The WORST was when he asked us if we'd like a bottle of wine and we politely declined. But we had to decline more than once to which he responded by suggesting we couldn't afford it. He then said he could give us a bottle and physically gestured in a pondering manner and came up with a price off the top of his head and said he'd sell us a bottle for 60. Then, he shares that this particular bottle is really cheap and he took pride in telling us he's tricked other customers in the past by over charging them for this bottle. It was incredibly inappropriate. He also didn't wear his mask. Shouldn't have to tell a grown man to follow basic safety protocol. The saving grace really was the food. Incredible Italian food. The pasta was cooked to perfection. I try to erase the waiter from my memory.
Incredible service! The food was good...but I expected a bit better. However...give it a shot!!!
