This is hands down the best Italian lunch you will find in the greater DC/NOVA area! I’ve had Italian sandwiches all over the world, to include Rome and Florence, you CANNOT find a better sandwich than right here. The focaccia is the stuff dreams are made of!

And the staff!!! They are the best. I only wish they were open for dinner.

Yes, it is worth the drive!

My daughter enjoyed spaghetti and meatballs, my wife had a salmon and artichoke dish, and I devoured a chicken sandwich. They were out of a certain type of bread for my sandwich but offered an alternative bun, which turned out great. The owners chatted with us after our lunch, and gave us a few extra desserts on the house. The cannoli was our favorite. Highly recommend this gem in Warrenton, VA. You won’t be disappointed.

We stumbled on this little bakery cafe in Warrenton on a recent day trip. We went inside, and we were pleasantly greeted, and all of our questions were answered. We purchased 2 pies, one lemon and one peach, they were both delicious. We also tried a new item, the lemon blueberry forcaccia bread. They asked that we let them know what we thought. The girl helping us said her dad had requested this flavor combo. I must say, her father has great taste and it was very good. This place was a pleasant surprise and the prices were very reasonable. If you are in the Warrenton area, make a point to stop by and give them a try. It’s definitely worth it! Keep up the great work.

Great little place, I happened upon while traveling through Warrington. I had scrambled eggs with bacon and toast. It was good and quick. I don’t know what the other food was, but the staff was very enthusiastic and the chef came out to check on everyone. I will definitely go again if I am in Warrington, VA.

Lovely little cafe and bakery we finally made time to try. We ordered the tomato cream ravioli, chicken parm over pasta, and lemon curd tart—all were very good and will definitely be back to try more. Pictured here is the ravioli.

Amazing! A true hidden gem! We had pasta with scallops, clams, mussels and shrimp and it was decadent! Maybe one of the best pasta dishes I have ever had! The pistachio mousse was light creamy and so different! We loved everything! Top notch service too!!

Great food and pastries. Certainly a hidden gem in Warrenton. From the sandwiches, to the pasta, soup, and salads, it is all delicious. You can tell the food is made fresh. The employees are very helpful and knowledgeable about the food they are serving.

Avoided them for the better part of 15 years then I found out I was the problem!

I have lived in Warrenton for about 15 years now and I have not frequented Café Torino much during those years, because I just did not feel they pandered to their customers enough. By pandering I mean things like their limited operating hours, and at some point, I got the feeling they just don’t care about their customers that much. However today while enjoying an AWESOME lunch it finally dawned on me. It’s not that they do anything wrong it’s what I have come to expect, and of all people, I should know better. I have traveled and lived all over the world extensively, and thus I should recognize European style businesses and attitudes. They create great food without much fanfare, it’s not fast food and not white glove service either but I have loved every bake good or meal I have had there.

The employees and who I assume are the owners are probably more friendly than most restaurants, and while I could not put my finger on it before I think I can now. Their food is SO GOOD that they have regulars they know by name and of course I am not part of that click yet, so I feel slighted or un-appreciated when they are too busy to show me some attention. By the way while still not a regular they know by name, this area of their service has improved immensely over the past 5 years. They also run the place with what a appears to a novice like myself, a very minimal staff so they are very busy and no time for BS so they need their patrons to have their act together and not expect the wait staff to spend a lot of time with you. I think that everyone there does everything they don’t have dedicated wait staff, hostess, water boy or that type of staff. Your dish is just as likely to be brought to your table by the owner or the cashier.

More often than not they are not open when I want to eat there, and this has been frustrating but let’s face it I can’t go eat at the Little Inn in Washington VA any time either. Now I am not comparing these two against each other just trying to make the point that the food is so good at Café Torino that when they are open, they will have customers ready to spend money and I am one of that group. That they have hopefully found a work life balance that works for them is great and I will learn to go enjoy their food when they are open!

The bakery case is often lacking what I want but only because once again it is that good and well the early bird gets the worm. I will just have to get there quicker!

So, in a nutshell GREAT FOOD just get there early and of course when they are open!

By the way I ordered the cream of tomato soup and well after my first taste I broke out the camera, my wife took a bite and ordered her own bowl. She had a sandwich she enjoyed, and I had the ravioli with tomatoes plus chicken. By the way the saltiness of the bread with the tomato soup, I thought I was at a Michelin star restaurant.

Café Torino staff I hope my review comes across positive because it is meant to be and I am rather envious or your success and talent!
