Went here Thursday night with a group of 12. We were seated near the front door, not a problem, however the table was much too small for this group of people (12). The restaurant is small so I understand they need to fit all the people they can into the space. Due to the size it appeared to be very... More

Toscana has been in Charlotte since 1998 and has always been a place to go for a top notch dining experience. The food is excellent and is served with style. Patio dining is available and recommended in appropriate weather. Located in Shops on The Park it is suitable for weekday lunches and always for evening dining. The service staff is... More

We first discovered Toscana 10 years ago when we stopped over in South Park on our way to South Carolina and it has has become an annual stop since then. The service is excellent, the wine list and food have been consistently good. We always look forward to our dinner and always book before leaving Toronto.

Great service, good wine, and terrific Italian food. We've been largely underwhelmed by the Italian restaurants we've tried in North Carolina. This one is the best we've found so far. Really excited to try its sister restaurant Luce next time we're in town.

My wife and I were just two diners wedged between two large parties recently and our server, Renee, made us feel like we were her top priority. Although all three of our parties were seated at about the same time (roughly 22 diners all told), we never felt neglected and all restaurant personnel were most attentive to our needs... even...

This is a very quaint, romantic place with soft light and great ambiance. The food was terrific, right down to the bread and olive oil at the beginning. We had the brochette appetizer, which was just right, light but tasteful. My customers had the scallops over rizotto, and I had the lasagna. We both kept raving about the taste through... More

I went with my wife for a quick lunch and we enjoyed Toscana. Limited offers in the menu as well as in the wine list, but we ate the authentic and well prepare Italian food.

Went with the family over the Christmas holidays and Toscana was wonderful as expected. We had two children with us and they accommodated our special menu requests. Everyone's food was excellent. The calamari appetizer is my favorite. The staff is helpful and professional. Can't wait to return.

A great Italian restaurant tucked behind South Park Mall. They bring a bean dip mixed with onions, parsley and garlic for your bread to start and it is so good you could just fill up on that. Love the Branzino which seems to be a "special" every night. Veal is always good as is their red sauce. It can be... More

Food is wonderful, especially seafood dishes. One drawback is a hard floor which can make it a little loud, especially if you are in a big group or are next to a big group. That said, I go regularly.
