Since opening on Eglinton Ave. West in 2001, 7 Numbers (named in honour of the seven-digit business number the restaurant was given) has carved its place in Toronto's jam-packed Italian dining scene. The family-run restaurant is overseen by matriarch "Mama" Rosa Marinuzzi, who cooks in the Eglinton location while her children oversee the stoves at the Danforth Ave outpost. Sitting down to dinner at 7 Numbers is a lot like joining an Italian family for a meal: it's loud, the hospitality is unmatched and the food is prepared simply and with the freshest ingredients. At both locations, the menu changes daily, but you'll often find staples such as the succulent Sexy Duck, tender calamari coated in a light-as-air breading and pan-fried, and arguably Toronto's best lasagna.
