The standard bearer for Toronto’s thin-crust pizza craze has expanded to serve even more diners who know the rules of the Verace Pizza Napoletana Association by heart. Pizzeria Libretto is now ensconced at a new location on The Danforth. With 144 seats, this second space is twice as large as the original on Ossington Avenue, and naturally features not one, but two huge, Naples-made wood-burning ovens to ensure that perfectly blistered, flash-baked crust. The margherita ($13) is a must-try, of course, but once you’ve had that authentic taste of Italy, make a return visit for signature pies made with Ontario-fresh ingredients like prosciutto, arugula and shave grana padano cheese ($16), and house-made sausage with caramelized onions and chili oil ($16).
