Toscana Restaurant

Been meaning to try this place for years and wish I hadn’t. Ordered take out and my wife went to pick it up. Took 10-15 minutes longer than it was supposed to even though my wife was literally the only person in the restaurant. The arancini was soggy and whatever was in the middle was like warm. The lasagna bolognese was $24 and was the worst pasta I’ve ever had. Also, $24? We make pasta all the time and it’s incredibly cheap to make, so we were expecting amazing lasagna. There weren’t even sides, no bread, nothing. Just $24 for a slice of mushy lasagna. There were no distinguishable lasagna noodles, so I’m guessing they were over cooked to hell. It was a pile of like warm mush with a weird metallic taste to it. And no, it didn’t get cold in the car, we live a couple hundred yards away. $58 down the drain. Do yourself a favor and go to literally any other restaurant that serves pasta, even if it’s McDonalds.

The first time we went 2 years ago we loved it. This time it was so bad I'm changing my rating to 1 star. Atmosphere is still good, but that's it. Prices were up, food was strange/gross and we really couldn't eat most of it. Not authentic Italian for sure. Won't be going back.

A first time visit did not disappoint. Walking in was surprisingly spacious,warm and welcoming. The Calamari was the best I have ever had, cooked to perfection with a gentle hint of lemon that made it pleasingly refreshing. The Rollatini beautifully plated and the sauce had an aroma that brought me back to my childhood,being a daughter of Italian parents.

Courtney is the best! She never forgets you and always welcome us back. The food is excellent! The wine is amazing and you cannot leave without trying her home made limoncello!!! We will be back soon.

One of the best homemade dinners I've had in a very long time. The owner, who is the main chef there, was also our waitress and she did her best to make us want to go back. And we definitely will!!! We ate broccoli Alfredo fettuccine pasta and chicken marsala, both if them deliciously A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!! Definitely recommend this place!

Absolute must try, food and service on point and Marta was as good as good can get. To start were house made rolls with an amazing dipping oil that words can't describe. Then came the Caprese salad, the house ensalata and damn they were good. Homemade mozzarella was creamy and decadent with a balsamic dressing that was heaven. Mine the greens were fresh with a lot of shallots and a house vinaigrette that was on point. Main courses were Chix Picatta, tenderlish chix with perfect pasta and a perfect sauce. My sweet sausage pizza sprinkled with red pepper flakes was one on the best pizzas I've had, eva. You can taste the freshness in everything. Again Marta was friendly and engaging, this is a must try for Italian. We will be back..

In addition to my last review,I would like to recognize our bartender/ server, Gary whose talents as a mixologist made for a refreshing and entertaining experience. We ALL are looking forward to returning to this lovely restaurant.

Well, I'd really like to keep this place a secret, but everything about our experience was incredible. The ambience is perfect for an intimate Italian restaurant, the food is extremely fresh and delicious, and Courtney is an amazing, personable server who not only made the experience fabulous but she literally made the limoncello I had for a digestif and it was, by far, the best I have had. This will most likely become our favorite Italian restaurant. We can't wait to go back.

So my daughter and I went last night Friday night, not too too busy, but just enough. Drinks were fabulous. My daughter ordered chicken Marsala and she liked it. Portions were a little small. I ordered salt salmon with risotto and it was so greasy and bad. I didn't eat it but it got the chicken marsala and that was delicious. Small portions but so so good definitely will be back. The waitress was sweet in the atmosphere was OK. A little weird small inside with one waitress doing everything but other than that definitely a good place.

Very cute Bistro just outside of Plymouth center. Bartender provided great service and made me a delicious Manhattan. This restaurant was quiet on a Sunday. I started out with the caprese salad followed by chicken Parm. Both were OK. Not great. Extensive menu and reasonably priced.

Hmmm...Our server was nice but totally overwhelmed. She calmly worked the bar but had 4-5 tables. So service was very slow. Food was, well, mediocre. Had arancini. OK but it seemed like the kitchen was worried about ruining out of sauce. About 10 minutes later we got the calamari. Small portion and also not much sauce. The hot pepper rings mentioned on the menu were almost non- existent.. 15 minutes or so later out came two salads. My wife's capri salad was marginally OK bit I didn't see any basil. My house salad was OK but again, the kalamata olives mentioned on the menu must have been invisible. I wanted a caesar salad and asked if they had anchovies. She said no- deal breaker. Finally about 25 minutes later ) and I think I am being generous with the time line) out came the entrees. My wife's chicken broccoli alfredo was cold , tasteless and the chicken was tough. She ate one bite. I had a standard veal parm and asked if I could have both veal and eggplant.Sure I can if I pay full price for both, which was not mentioned . Once again, sauce was an issue.One piece of eggplant with cheese on it and one slice of veal underneath with no sauce. Also had linguine on the plate with a little sauce. I asked for extra which came about 5 minutes later. We had enough after being there for an hour and a half mostly drinking wine and asked for the check. Yikes! We do like to eat and usually spend some money but I have never been charged $32 for a small plate of parm. Live and learn. My wife's didn't take her leftovers home. I did but asked for extra sauce. The experience was a disaster. She got a decent tip . Not going back. The chef needs to learn how to season food, and how to portion correctly. 1 star put of 5.

Had the most unpleasant experience with the Owner. She is extremely rude. I have no idea how someone can speak to people like that.

One of the best Italian restaurants around. Chicken broccoli penne us to die for! Word of advice, don't order takeout online, call instead. A few times the restaurant was busy and missed our online order. Literally showed up and they had no idea the order came in. Calling instead solved the problem!

Waitress was pleasant, meal was flavorful, but...VERY small portions, NO heat during January, and 50 cents per dinner roll. We left hungry. Had been a couple of years ago and it was delicious, but windows stated under new management. Won't be returning.

Can only hope this was an off night. We are huge fans of S. Coe and popped in to Toscana with friends. Entrees came out 2 at a time for a party of 7. My entree (veal parm with a meatball and a sausage) was lukewarm and the tomato sauce on the pasta was very watery. Disappointing. Since we arrived early and the restaurant was basically just us for a long period, I wonder what happens during peak service periods.

2 of us stopped in around 7:30 on a Saturday evening and there was no one at the bar, and a few booths open. If I could choose 1/2 stars this would be 3 1/2, but the service and atmosphere were so lovely, I opted to round up rather than down. SERVICE: Excellent. Courtnei was the bartender as well as the server and seemed quite comfortable moving about ensuring everyone had what they needed. She has a beautiful disposition and she even found some time to chat with us. BAR: Good selection of wines, I went with the Principato Chard, which was $8 and a generous pour. Courtnei also makes her own sangria - a red and a white version and gave us a good size tester of both. I really liked the white one and know it would be refreshing on a hot afternoon. FOOD: Good. The Chicken masala had excellent flavor and plenty of mushrooms and pancetta. I chose it served over penne. Some of the chicken pieces were a tad bit overcooked so I stuck to eating the larger ones. They make their own lasagna and tortellini in house. The lasagna bolognese was OK. The portion is large, certainly enough to share. ATMOSPHERE: There is a warm feeling when you arrive. That night they had someone playing music on the keyboard and it was refreshing where the volume was not so loud to prevent communication without shouting. 2 recommendations: 1) The bread was excellent but the oil seemed a bit thin. I prefer extra virgin olive oil that has a bit of a green tint and a bite. 2) If Toscana does not already, hire someone to play authentic Italian music. It would add nicely to the already welcoming atmosphere.

Very small portions Overpriced wine (for what it is) Long, long wait for your food! Don't go there hungry! Our waiter was nice, but it took forever to get our rolls, then another 30 minutes to get about 12 mussels for $12.00 , and calamari portion was a joke! We will never go back!

What a wonderful restaurant. First off, let's talk about the location. Right off of Exit 13 (The old 5), such easy access and right by the waterfront make it for a wonderful spot Second, let's talk about the service and ambiance. Our waitress was very professional and caring. She was very helpful and compassionate. Thirdly, the appetizers were great. We all split the stuffed calamari, which was amazing. Finally, the entree was delicious. The veal saltimbocca was excellent. Very flavorful and some nice color. Overall, I was rather satisfied.

There was live music playing and the food was wonderful . The portions could have been bigger but the meal was still worth it. The waitstaff were helpful and friendly. Will return again

I love this little gem. When I don't want pizza, this is the best Italian food in Plymouth, without question. Everything is so fresh and doesn't sit too heavy. And the vibe is perfect for a cozy date night or relaxing evening to small talk with friends and have a great dinner.

Caprese salad on the menu: "mixed greens topped with sliced tomatoes, fresh mozzarella cheese drizzled with balsamic dressing" What I actually got was a piece of romaine covered in tomato and some kind of firm cheese sprinkled with dried oregano. Terribly disappointed!

Food was great, nice home style Italian place. Scallop with risotto was perfect along with my wife's Cesar salad and linguine and meatballs

Check out this Italian restaurant that is a bit off the main entertainment center as it is well worth it. The highlight is the delicious food which is prepared on the spot by the chef/owner, Marta.

If you read this in entiret, you'll understand the 1 star rating! DO NOT EAT HERE! I had never been to Toscana Ristorante in Plymouth Ma before, and neither had the lady I was dining with on Feb. 11,2023. We both grew up and still live in the South Shore, and were hoping to enjoy a quite evening dining together with one of our favorite types of food, Italian, is being both of Italian descent. Neither of us, knew of anyone that had ever eaten there before. As I had only read good reviews on this site. We both agreed to give Toscana Ristorante a try. I was able to make a dinner reservation for 2 at 7pm day of our expected pleasurable dining experience, so far so good right? We arrived several minutes prior to our reservation time, we were promptly seated, only after my lady friend had to walk up to find help to have us seated after waiting several minutes for a hostess that wasn't there. I requested a booth as far away as possible from the musician that was playing electric organ music and singing what could e been great background ambiance music, had it not been for the fact that he had his amp turned up so high, all the other dining costumers had to speak to each other over his music so loudl, the entire dining room sounded like a high school lunch cafeteria. Once seated, we did receive prompt table service and we did receive our drink request fairly quickly. That's where the experience ended on a high note. We took our time to decide what we both wanted to share together for an appetizer, fried calamari, and what each of us wanted for dinner, her: Chicken Marsala with linguine me: Veal Marsala with linguine We then ordered and proceeded to try and have a conversation with each other. That didn't work out so great until the musician that evening took a 5minute break, and then every table in the place was able to tone down their shouting over the music and the room only then had a pleasant buzz of normal conversation tone. After about 15-20 minutes, our dinner arrived. But I could see by the horrified look on my lady friends face something wasn't quite right. She then reminded me by asking the waitress, "do you typically serve the main meal before the appetizer?" The waitress apologized and told us if we still wanted it, she could ask the cook to prepare it for us. We both declined as our main meal would've been cokd by the time it arrived. We then started to eat our meals of chicken and veal Marsala. Within the 1st bite, I looked at my lady friend, asked her if her chicken Marsala tasted like Marsala, as my veal Marsala most certainly did not. She said the chicken was good, but the dish itself most certainly wasn't a Marsala based dish. I had to agree as my veal was not either. She ate most of her dinner despite the fact, I however ate maybe 4 bites once I also realized the veal was as tough as flank steak, and promptly moved my plate to the outside end of booth table. The waitress then came back, asked if we were done with dinner and if we wanted our check, never once asking how we liked our meal, if there was anything else we may want, or asking if we'd maybe like dessert and coffee, which we both did want! We told her we would like dessert and coffee. My lady friend had lava cake and an expresso. I chose Italian bread pudding and a regular coffee. We both assumed as the dessert menu said served with ice cream, that both dishes would be served with vanilla ice cream as is traditionally served. Well dessert, coffee, and espresso came. Both desserts had strawberry ice cream, wrong! Her expresso wax nothing more than unflavored tepid at best brownish warm water, my coffee, once I poured the cup myself!, had coffee grounds floating in it! When we inquired if maybe the strawberry ice cream was because of Valentine's Day nearing, the waiters shrugged her shoulders and informed us, we use whatever we can get and there was no special reason the ice cream wasn't the traditional vanilla. My lady friend and I both looked at each other in disbelief at the entire 1.5hr ordeal we had just endured. At that point rather than get upset at a situation I had no real control over, I simply laughed and told her, "going forward, you and I will be only going to a place where we have approved feedback from people we know and trust that have recently dined at wherever.we go next." with all that said, I still left a 20% tip on my $112 bill which still had the calamari on the receipt as I had no intention of staying in that "establishment", one second longer.

This place is a little gem. The food is amazing and reasonably priced. Service is so good too! As an example, I ordered a rum and diet coke. The waitress told me they only had diet pepsi. I said that was fine BUT this woman ran over to the local store and quickly grabbed a 2-liter of diet coke just for us!! There is both outside and inside seating right now and they have had a piano player there playing music too on weekends (not sure if this is all the time but saw him twice). As it is off the beaten path a bit (a few blocks away from the busy downtown area), it seems to get overlooked and believe me it shouldn't. Highly recommend!!!

Walked in for reservation Friday night. Resturant was completely empty. 1 waitress/bartender working. Ordered 2 entrees and 2 salads. Within 20 minutes 4 parties sat down. 65 minutes later 3 parties were served dinner and we still hadn't gotten our food. The waitress said 'you ordered an appetizer so yours took longer'. 75 minutes we finally got our food. More like she was in the weeds and couldn't handle 6 tables. Pretty much taking this off the list, too many places to eat in Plymouth.

Let me just say if I had known it was under new management I would've stayed clear until they got all the kinks out. In which I surely hope they do! The waitress/ bartender was a complete mess. Starting with the rolls. Dirty cloth napkin that two small Rudy rolls were squirreled away in. Dipping oil was probably the best thing we had. Had Eggplant Rollatini it was ok. My husband had Veal Abbandaza and I had the chicken. Small piece of parmesan with a meatball and sausage .. it was ok at best. When it came there was no pasta served. We had to ask for it . Our waitress felt terrible and return gave us overly microwaved lava cakes . The real kicker here is being charged 4 bucks for Diet Pepsi that was from a can ( I heard her crack it open) that was served in a 6 oz cup filled with ice . Clearly my husband and I shared this can. 3 sips it was gone. Absolutely disgusting to charge people 4 bucks in which we were charged 16 dollars. Are you kidding me?!? If the food was 4 + stars you over look this kind of stupidity. I didn't have it in me to argue this point because we waited for our check because of some kind of problem with getting our check printed. So 86.00 later less the tip. NEVER AGAIN will I step foot in this establishment.We work to hard to give money away to restaurants like this! So many better choices in Plymouth. Too bad papa Gino's is gone. That would've been a step up.

Authentic Italian at its finest! It's as if you walked right into your grandmothers kitchen. Martha the owner is on site, she cooks, serves and entertains. We moved down to this area from Boston, we hardly dine anymore out because the East Bay type restaurants get old with the sub par food. We mainly go for the atmosphere. However, due to the suggestion of a friend we ended up here. The food was amazing, unbelievable actually the best food I have had on the south shore! The atmosphere is intimate, the service is personable and the FOOD! OMG is all I have to say! After having lunch here, I'm taking my fiancé back for a late dinner. That's how amazing this place is! A must!

Based on the reviews I should have known better but I do prefer to try things myself. I'll start off by saying it was ok. Not terrible at all but just ok. Cute inside but it did have a slightly musty smell as someone mentioned in a pos yesterday. Bread came out and it was toasted and it was an "everything" bread which I love a everything bagel for breakfast but not with dinner. Salad was great. It was part of the early bird special for $15 so all good there. My eggplant parm came out and let me ask WHO in Tuscany doesn't cook their pasta in the sauce the last few minutes. It was just poured on top. Right there I was like "mistake" coming here. Everyone knows you need to cook the pasta with the sauce the last few minutes. My god man, turn on a TV cooking show!!! They did swap out eggplant for their chicken and veal parm which was part of the early bird special so that was nice of them but eggplant is cheaper than meat so it was a win for them. My husbands swordfish came out, again it was good but it was definitely butterflied. Getting a $21 dish with a swordfish that is less than a 1/2 inch in size is a rip off. Risotto was good but for $21 that dish was not worth it. I did enjoy my Citra wine which was from Italy and a house wine for $7. All in all not terrible but just ok. I've been to Italy many times and I've been to Tuscany. Unfortunately, this was not it.

Awesome Gem of a restaurant Delicious Homemade Fresh Delicious Italian Meals! Service is superb!!!

Just okay. The restaurant itself is nice, your usual small town rustic Italian spot. The waitstaff was friendly. My ravioli cost $20, and contained 4 ravioli. I don't think $5/ravioli is a good price point for the quality and presentation of food here. Neither the ravioli nor the sauce tasted as if they were made in house. I asked for my ravioli to be spicy, which it objectively was not. The door was also marked with a "we're closed" sign when I got there to pick up my order, so I knocked. The entire waitstaff just looked at me for several minutes before someone got up to let me inside out of the rain. Will not be returning.

Please read this and other reviews before considering dining at Toscana. We should have listened to the other reviews but thought we'd try it for ourselves but it was a huge mistake. Save yourself the trip and the terrible experience and dine elsewhere! This place is located close to downtown Plymouth but we thought we got lucky by scoring a 7pm reservation on a Saturday evening. After dining here, we understand why it was so empty. There are only 2 people who are taking orders, busing tables, and making drinks (maybe they're cooking the food and washing dishes too with such terrible service). We ordered a peach Bellini and espresso martini and that took 15 minutes. Once I took a sip of the Bellini, I almost spat it back out. The waitress added olive brine to my drink...uhh...WHAT?! I had to send it back and the other waiter had to tell the waitress that the recipe only calls for peach and prosecco and she fought with him saying "this is how I made it the other day." YIKES to that poor patron who didn't speak up! The food took a while (30+ minutes and only 4 other tables) and all we ordered were arancini balls, meatballs, and a pasta dish for three people. The food was good but the evening just dragged on! Once we finished, we tried ordering the chocolate lava cake but they didn't have it that day. We opted for the flan and the tiramisu and both were just okay. We also attempted to use a Restaurant.com certificate and the waitress didn't accept it because it wasn't printed. We've never had to print these certificates out before and were very disappointed that they wouldn't accept it. When we asked for the bill it took 10-15 minutes and additional food was added to it so we had to have the waitress correct it. All we wanted was to leave but the service was so painfully slow. Typically, this would have taken 45-50 minutes but it took more than an hour and a half from start to finish! We couldn't imagine if all three of us ordered entrees because it probably would've been a 2-hour ordeal. This place should be embarrassed that they're still in business. After our experience, I continued reading all the other reviews and regret not taking it more seriously. If we could give this place zero stars, we would.

My husband made reservations for 7 of us on Opentable.com for Mother's Day. There were 6 adults, and our 3 year old daughter. We were so excited to try your restaurant as we live in Plymouth but had never been. We are big foodies and had heard wonderful things from several friends. Our reservation was for 5:45pm, and we arrived approx.. 5:40. Jeff, who happened to be the host, bartender, one and only waiter, AND bus person, greeted us. He looked at his clipboard and noticed our name was not on the reservation list. This was a slight red flag as my husband was careful to make sure he had made a reservation prior and the fact that we had a 3 year old who doesn't sit for very long. He apologized and assured us he would get us a table quickly. Forty-five minutes later we were sat at 6:33pm. We must have sat for a good 15 minutes before ever getting anything to drink (water) let alone putting our order in! Jeff again apologized and offered complimentary sparkling/spring water on the table (normally $6 per bottle). This was much appreciated. Our table ordered 2 appetizers. Carrot Bisque which I was told was wonderful and mussels. There were several mussels that were closed so our party asked for more and then decided against it. The bread came out and was wonderful, dipping sauce too. Still we were waiting for our drinks. Poor Jeff was running around the entire time. The service was just terrible, obviously this was because there was ONE waiter and a FULL HOUSE. We tried to be patient but it's Mother's Day and we were so looking forward to a nice meal out. Our meal literally came out ONE HOUR later. Talk about frustrating. We were so upset at this point. Our beverages literally came out after we were done with our meals. We had to ask several times and remind him what we had. Why was there no one else on staff? Where was the bartender? The food, however, was AMAZING. All dishes were excellent. Unfortunately we won't be back, only because the poor service. Just wanted to let you know of our experience.

We haven't been here for a while so decided to try it on Sunday. It did not disappoint...in fact our meals were fabulous. Will be back soon!

I have to say maybe the best Italian food on the south shore hands down. I had the chicken part and the chicken was cooked to perfection and one of the best sauce I've ever had. even the oil for bread dipping was fantastic, all around amazing food. Now why two stars, well Jeff the host, waiter, bartender and busboy needs help running this hidden jewel. problem is, it will stay a hidden jewel or worse, disappear if they don't add staff fast. First I made a reservation on mothers day but it appeared to be missing, they were able to seat us. Jeff had a full house of about 30 people, (not a very big place) so attending to us became the task of his volunteer assistant who started out very friendly and helpful. service was the slowest I ever experienced and of course while talking to my mother, I complained. at one point the assistant overheard me complaining and decided to confront me. she was upset more at the situation internally than with us but it did make the rest of the evening uncomfortable. we were offered maybe too much internal information than we should have gotten but apparently the budget wasn't there for much needed staff. a drink, an app and the entree took from walking in the door to paying the tab almost 2 1/2 hours. there were times we felt like leaving but Jeff went out of his way to apologize for the delay. as mentioned the food and Jeff are the draw to this place. I'll go back in time; after they hire staff to move people in and out a little faster. if they don't improve, maybe the next I go there, they won't be there.

Date night in Plymouth. This place has a ton of great ratings and we were open on a Monday night. Lots of pluses here. Chef owned place who sources all of her ingredients locally. Fresh pasta and a simple, yet varietal menu. I went with the Fruti de Mare but was really Jonesing for some fra diavlo. I asked if she could kick it up a bit and that was not a problem. Great mix of mussels, clams, shrimp, scallops in a spicy red sauce. I thought it was a great dish and will definitely be back.

New to area so after googling "Italian restaurants" and doing some research we decided to eat here. It was a beautiful summer day and I would bet everyone else was down at the waterfront but we decided to spread our business elsewhere and not be where it's crowded. Met the owner Mata and she was such a love. She's one hardworking woman! Love it! The food was wonderful! Will be back again and will spread the word!

One doesn't come to the Cape for fine Italian cuisine, but that's what you get, right here in America's Hometown. A quiet dining room greets you right on the main road into downtown, but you're just far enough out to be away from the traffic and crowds. Clearly these handcrafted meals are made with care. Even the bruschetta, a custom recipe, uses Gorgonzola cheese with a deft balance. Marsala is marsala and meatballs are meatballs, but everything has a "just made" flavor and feel. I highly recommend.

Updated July 18, 2019: I contacted the owner via email and she called me right away. She was very concerned about the situation, apologized and informed me that the particular waiter no longer works there. She also provided a partial refund for some of the mess- mentioned below. Give her another shot! ----- Read below for original review: I learned my lesson to pay close attention to 3 star reviews on Yelp - be more cautious! This place was terrible and I suggest finding somewhere else to eat. The only thing I can say is that the food tasted great! But everything else ruined the experience. The service was terrible, orders were wrong, meals came out a few at a time (with 5 or so minutes in between) and one person never got their meal (and somehow the waiter made us feel like it was our fault even though he double checked his pad 3 times). Another order was given to the wrong person (because he didn't know the menu) and that meal had to be re-made which took 15 minutes. We were made to feel very uncomfortable - waiter blamed the owner for not training him, we hear them yelling at each other at the cash register (as they had the gall to charge us for the last meal that they gave us to go because it was 30 min late and it was so embarrassing for us to sit there and wait, etc...). I'm hoping the owner calls me to discuss this. I was too upset to talk to her last night because dad's 75th birthday dinner was ruined. (We did have a reservation for 11 people - and there was only one other table occupied) - so no excuses about being too busy. Just a terribly run restaurant that will clearly be out of business in the next 6 months if they don't fix their problems. (read the other reviews about poor service). If you want to get drunk, get good food, be very patient and not care about service - go for it...

Good people, good prices, inconsistent food but seemingly great potential. Came upon Toscana Ristorante looking for another place now closed. The reviews were promising so we checked it out -- great prices and decent service, very friendly environment. Food was no bad but less than great. The kids loved their pasta which were in ample portions and a great value at $7.00 The offer an early bird option of $11 between 4pm - 6pm which is no doubt a tremendous value. My wife ordered the Lasagna which she thought was quite good, and a great value at $16. Unfortunately my Braised Short Ribs at $20 was stringy, flavorless, and on top of a watery risotto. That was disappointing, but overall the place shows a lot of promise. They seem like good people so I hope they succeed and would give them another chance.

Had a first date here tonight, and we found the restaurant ... interesting. There appeared to be only one person working, and she was clearly the hostess, waitress, busser, and bartender. She may also have been the cook. I say that because she wore chef pants and she was not visible for much of the night. On the plus side, my date and I had plenty of time to ourselves, even though there were only three tables full; on the other side, it would have been nice to have someone more attentive, and to have things like water brought when we arrived. One of the oddest parts of our 2.5 hour meal was when we ordered a bottle of Bordeaux. The waitress was delighted, and started telling us how California has the very best Bordeaux in the world, and how so many people don't know that. But Bordeaux is a French wine, and the bottle she served us indicated that it was a French wine. Just odd. The decor was older, and worn. My salmon was overcooked as were the mussels in my date's dish. With all the other offerings in Plymouth, I don't know that I'd return to this one.

Love this place. Always great service, great food. Have tried a variety of menu items, and have never been disappointed. Friendly, casual neighborhood ambiance.

An Italian restaurant that can please everyone in a party of 10 is hard to find, but this restaurant hit the mark. It's a small neighborhood restaurant with a quiet, slow pace but food that can compete with the high-end Italian restaurants in Boston and Providence. We shared great appetizers like calamari, eggplant rollatini, and bruschetta wishing we could go back the next night for full portions because they were so good. The main courses were the talk of the weekend, along with the pleasant opportunity to be able to talk during dinner without loud music drowning out the conversation. Those who had dessert raved about them, especially the cheesecake mousse. Such a pleasant surprise for a town full of tourist restaurants. Kudos to the chef and waitress.

What a cute little spot in Plymouth Center! Our server, Courtney, was so hospitable, kind, gracious and knew the menu inside and out. We asked her to recommend dishes for us to try and she was right on target. First up, the rolls with olive oil for dipping. The rolls, lightly crispy, perfectly soft and chewy inside. The oil was so flavorful I wanted to stick my whole face in it. Next we got the eggplant rollatini. It was delicious, two giant pieces, perfectly crispy with a creamy flavorful ricotta and spinach filling and a yummy, tangy red sauce. I ordered the chicken marsala...omg. The chicken? So tender, I didn't need a knife. The mushrooms and the prosciutto were perfectly cooked but the spaghetti? Oh the spaghetti. The sauce was the most delicious marsala I have ever had and the spaghetti was married to it. I could not stop eating it and moaning for more. My husband ordered the shrimp scampi. Perfectly cooked, plump juicy shrimp in a garlicky sauce with fresh tomatoes. He didn't speak at all. The food was incredible. We didn't have any room for dessert due to stuffing ourselves and the very very good wine!! Try Toscana you will love it!!

Got take out. Chicken parm was over cooked and the noodles were dry. The "risotto" was actually Spanish rice. The sauce tasted like plastic. Very disappointed. Meatballs were dry and salty. The tiramisu was the opposite. It looked like it just came out of a pond.

One of the worst meals I ever had. When walking in to the restaurant it smelled like mold, we were given bread & olive oil but it was NOT olive oil but possibly vegetable. My chicken marsala was tasteless, my husband ice tea tasted like mold. I'm giving it 2 stars because the waitress was a sweet heart

I ate at Toscana Ristorante with a group of friends while we were spending a night in Plymouth. The food was fantastic! We got four types of pastas - the linguine with meatballs, chicken parmigiana, shrimp and scallop marta, and the limone florentine. Every one of the dishes was very, very good. The pasta itself was especially good, maybe locally made? I'm not sure. The flavours were all very good and the meat and seafood delicious. We had a very helpful, very nice waitress who was also very new. I appreciate that everyone is new at some point and learning the ropes but there were times I wondered if we would get everything we ordered. That said, I would definitely come back to Toscana Ristorante in a heartbeat whenever I am in Plymouth again. If you're looking for Italian in Plymouth, this is definitely your place.

When we walked in there were only two customers seated on a Friday night. Should've been our first clue. We waited a good 5 minutes before someone came from back area to tell us we could sit anywhere. She was a sweet hostess who turned out to be the server, bartender and bus person. Menu had a misspelling for chicken Marsala (masala). I even joked that it was an Indian/Italian restaurant. Well, that may be what it was. Our food had definite weird taste of cumin and non Italian spices. Strange place and not going back. How do they stay in business with no customers and one staff member?

We were so excited the first time we were there. We went back 3 more times and it was fair. Someone mentioned it's dark and smells which is true. Also the food quality really went down as well as taste. Service was poor as well. Too bad nice lady.

This is a great restaurant! The food is fantastic... And the bruschetta is ridiculously good, you'll want more than one. I promise. The atmosphere is quant, classy and above all clean. Dennis, the executive chef, personally comes to the table to ensure your party is enjoying the meal and the wait staff is on the ball. They are very pleasant and knowledgeable. I highly recommend this restaurant!

Food was amazing! Had the shrimp and scallop marta, boyfriend had the veal marsala. Others had the fettuccini and chicken parm. Arancini balls to start. Everything was great. Very cozy atmosphere. Will eat here again!

Good Italian food and terrific staff. A bit pricey for what you get though. Limited hours so check before you come here. Parking is street only.

Where to start, if you have 5 hours to spend on dinner I would recommend here. If you have no taste buds and appreciate microwaved mush I would recommend here. If you are a fan of poor service I would recommend. Even after not eating our meals, asking for service, the check, manager the owner just dismissed us and didn't offer an apology let alone a discount for poor service and quality of food.

Where do I begin. First our party of 11 arrives on time for our 6:30 pm reservation and there is no one in the restaurant. No host/hostess nor wait staff. After a few minutes we are told to take our seats. Our very personable waiter was very inexperienced (his fourth day there). First mistake was we ordered a glass of seltzer and received a glass of tonic water. Appetizers were very good but we had ordered extra bread to dunk into our mussels sauce but received half of them with our dinner. Half the dinner orders came out with 1 totally different dish. Then 3 more come out about 10 minutes later. Another dish came out missing its side salad. 2 people still had not received their dinners when we were told that the kitchen said we had all our meals. So the waiter had to go through his entire order entries and check off what was missing. Once again, he kept mentioning a dish we never ordered. Ten more minutes and another dinner is served. Still one is missing. Only half the diners got grated Parmesan. Told they had to go across the street to get a milk order (never got it). Our waiter said he was the only waiter and only one person was handling the kitchen. If you don't have the necessary staff, then close the doors and don't accept reservation. We finally said we would take the last order to go because the first wave of diners had finished eating half an hour prior. They not only, charged us for milk we never received but also for the last dish to go. No real apology just a blame game. By the way, the missing dish was lasagna. There were 3 other tables for reservations (no shows-lucky them). Never had such an unprofessional dining experience. Unfortunately, we were out to celebrate a milestone occasion. It was a complete embarrassment.

First time tonight, early bird special sign (4-6 pm) caught my eye. Choice of Garden or Caeser salad. Wife had Garden, came with cold cuts , I had Caeser with anchovies. Both salads were delicious. For main course, I had Chicken & Eggplant Parm with pasta, very nicely done. I had to bring some home. My wife had Cheese Ravioli with Bolognese sauce, both of us were very satisfied. . Salads and entrée were $11. The service was top notch and drinks were reasonably priced. Nice quiet atmosphere. We haven't enjoyed Italian like this in some time --- can't wait to go back.

Been here twice now. 1st was many years ago(2010/2011). 2nd (July 2017): Only complaint is that the prices are higher than other Italian restaurants, but good food and a little more upscale than others. Very quiet place, when you want some peace.

1 star because this was one of the worst restaurant experiences I have had in many many years. This is a mom and pop restaurant in the heart of Plymouth. We tried to get into 42 North but they were full and this had many openings on Open Table... now we know why. Upon entering it took a good 5 minutes just to be acknowledged ( that was our first clue). After getting seated it took exactly 1 hour ( no exaggeration) to get drinks. We had water and bread and that's it. No drinks, No wine, No apps No food. Disaster. We should have just left as a couple of the other tables had near us. The only waiter who I think was also the owner and bartender was very pleasant and very apologetic for the slow service but this was Saturday night... He was prepared for 3 or 4 dinner guests and he had 25. Joined by his equally as pleasant dishwasher who subbed for a waitress to assist I felt like I was watching Kitchen Nightmares. An hour and half later the food started to arrive and surprise it was pretty good. 3 of us liked our dishes but my Dad didn't like his shrimp Scampi. The apps were good as well but the service was just so beyond terrible that we will NEVER be back. Best way to describe this restaurant is it's got relatively good food but they just don't know what they are doing. They aren't prepared for any kind of success on a Saturday night. I feel bad writing this but usually a scathing review knocks the food...in this case it's all management and service. Let me end on a positive note.... the mussels in the spicy red sauce were some of the best I've ever had.... sad I'll never get to have them again :(
