Pizza Banfi has been home to Forest Hill Village since 1988. Banfi was named after a famous Italian actor Lino Banfi. Giovanni Turano, known to all as Nino, was born in Genova, Italy and immigrated to Canada in 1982. His origin is reflected in the menu offering food from the North and South of Italy. Pizza Banfi became famous and well known for its gourmet thin crust pizza. The food, the atmosphere and the excellent service is what has made Pizza Banfi one of the best restaurants in Toronto. This relaxed Italian eatery serves thin-crust pizzas & pasta in a cozy dining room.

Nestled right in Forest Hill Village, Banfi is one the best hidden gems in Toronto. Definitely in my top 3 Italian restaurants in the city. Even though no reservations, there is rarely a long wait. The owner takes care of everyone waiting for a table with getting drink orders and often bruschetta. Portions are generous, service is very warm and the food is fantastic. 1 step from the side walk and tables are too close to each other leaving very room to move around
