3 d. ago Toronto Italian restaurant shuts down after two decades in business

An Italian restaurant in Toronto that was a cornerstone of its neighbourhood has officially closed down after two decades in business.It should come as no surprise that, in Toronto's Little Italy neighbourhood, there's no shortage of Italian restaurants and businesses.

We're talking about places like Sotto Voce, San Francesco Foods, and Riviera Bakery, the kind of places you wouldn't be afraid to drag your Nonna to.Thoug...
