Mattachioni

What is Mattachioni? Located at 1617 Dupont Street on the western edge of the Junction Triangle, Mattachioni is an Italian corner bodega, artisanal sourdough bakery, and wood-fired pizzeria created by longtime Terroni pizzaiolo David Mattachioni. The compact, sunlit space pairs grocery-stocked shelves with rustic repurposed church pews and counter service, spilling onto a curbside CafeTO patio during warmer months.

Mattachioni Menu & What to Order Every pizza is built on a slow-fermented, 100% naturally leavened sourdough crust with exceptional char and chew—the Margherita delivers pure simplicity, while the S. Pagliacolo excels with bitter rapini, fennel-rich house sausage, and melted smoked provolone. Midday diners flock to the sandwiches, especially the mortadella pressed into tomato focaccia and the herb-stuffed Ontario porchetta on fresh sourdough. Plant-based diners have a dedicated favorite in the garlicky Marinara pizza, and a tight selection of local and Italian wines pairs easily across the board.

Know Before You Go Given the narrow dining room and limited seating, expect brief waits at peak dinner hours as walk-ins take priority for small groups, though reservations for larger parties can be booked by phone. Bread lovers should visit before early afternoon, as day-baked sourdough loaves routinely sell out. The restaurant operates daily from 9:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m., within walking distance of Dundas West station and the West Toronto Rail Path.
