What a find!!!
I found this place on Yelp and looked at the menu. The second that I saw homemade gnocchi on the menu, I knew I had to try it and it did NOT disappoint. I did the build your own pasta with gnocchi, creamy pesto, Italian sausage, roasted red peppers and asparagus. It was so good I think I danced in my seat the whole meal. ((Also, free bread - can't go wrong there!))
The waitress was very attentive and nice, even though she had multiple tables all at once.
It's a quiet little restaurant in an unassuming strip mall, but don't drive by this one !Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Michelle L.OH, OH04Feb 20, 2024
Good food, HORRIBLE service. Like the worst I have ever gotten at a restaurant ever.
Came in last night at 6:10pm, early for our reservation. I was so excited to take my partner here because I have enjoyed Sebastiano's on many occasions and thought it was a great restaurant. We were not dressed to the nines, both wearing jeans and a sweat shirt, and I'm not sure if that is why we were treated so poorly or if it is because we are a young couple, but it definitely makes sense. We did not get greeted by our server for at least 20 minutes, and by the time she got to us, we were ready to order. I ordered a cocktail with my meal, and my partner ordered a soda. 30 minutes later after taking care of everyone in the dining room except us, our server (who never even introduced herself or said welcome to the restaurant or anything) walks past us, sees me looking at her, and goes "oh, your drink will be put shortly!" I look at the clock. It's 6:40. I definitely dont want a drink I ordered 30 minutes ago. Then she brings out my partner's soda that we completely forgot that we had ordered because it had been so long. The place is nice, the food was good, and I wish I could have been treated better. I would have tipped well over 20% if our server had deserved it. We probably won't be back considering our server was taking very good care of everyone else in the dining room except us- including a family that had children running around. Nice.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 2Business owner information

The $0 tip with a smiley face on your credit card slip was a nice touch. Now you want to add insult to injury? Fortunately my wife - your server - is a grown woman and was able to brush off your youthful shallowness with a laugh.
You say above you have dined her on many occasions. Literally not one of us recognized you, and your "real" name (not your fake account above) did not come up before last night in our point-of-sale system.
We typically staff kind of light on Monday nights, and we got a little busier than usual last night. Most people have a little grace when they can see there is one server handling a dining room. Fortunately, you have a long life, and many more dining experiences, ahead of you to meet or exceed the terribleness of this experience.
I don't even care if this sounds terrible to other customers who read it. You acted childish and came after my wife. Good luck, lady. - Chef Jon - Client 9.Toledo, OH13852Feb 16, 2024
Very good food, excellent service, very clean establishment. Bonus points because it's one of the few, if any, places in Toledo that serves gnocchi. Even the appetizer, bruschetta, was excellent. Decent beer selection, to boot.
And they very much seek customer feedback: First, they leave a physical, hardcopy comment card with the bill. Haven't seen that in ages. Second, by the time we got home, I had an email seeking further feedback. These people really want to get things right, and it shows. We will definitely be back.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Sep 4, 2023
This place is a hidden gem. Nestled inside a strip mall sits delightful Italian restaurant. I highly recommend the chicken piccata. It's perfect: the salt, acid, fat ratio is spot on.
The bread was soft & warm. The wine is still being sold at reasonable prices($6 Sauvignon Blanc) .
I enjoyed my Caesar salad, and noted that they use almond shavings instead of croutons, which is a really nice touch that I haven't had before.
This is a great place to enjoy some solid Italian restaurants menu staples. The service was excellent.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Nov 30, 2023
Friends weekend. There were four of us for dinner. OMG... it was absolutely fabulous. The service was phenomenal. Everyone exclaimed that their meal was the best. The food is freshly made. Mine was the chicken and peas with hazelnut cream sauce. I'm not a fan of peas... but in this instance...FABULOUS. Fresh, fresh, and fresh. I'm sitting here at the table listening to an acoustic guitar and singer. It's a great setting for a peaceful meal and calming music.

By far one of the best Italian restaurants I've ever been too. I've been wanting to visit for half a year and it's COVID lessening, decided to do so. I splurged and got a $7 glass of wine (not bad!) and an app, entree, and desert.
App: the bruschetta is amazing! Bread is served warm and so is the tomatoes - so so soooo good. I loved the flavor of it and not having to worry about soggy bread if I didn't eat it fast enough.
The meat sauce pasta - wow! One of the best pasta dishes I've ever had! You know how some Italian places skimp on the sauce, like barely a drizzle and you have to pay for "extra sauce" to actually enjoy flavor? Even if you scoop a ton of the meat sauce with your noodles, you will still have some left over. I added the veal& beef meatballs for $6 and it was WELL worth it.
Desert was the cannoli cake. Now, by this point I was actually pretty full, but I i just chilled at the table and slowly worked on it - every bite was excellent, and not very heavy either after such a heavy meal.
Great atmosphere. Piano in the corner but no one was playing when I was there. Nice dim lighting but still bright enough to take good food photos (lol). Great service.
I can't wait to return!!!!!!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Nicole L.Carleton, MI66220May 18, 2023
This place is pretty underwhelming. I ordered the Italian wedding soup and it was brought out in the most shallow bowl in existence. I swear there were three bites of soup. I believe it was 8 or 9 dollars. The spaghetti was good but nothing to write home about.
Won't be returning.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

Hi - Chef Jon here. The soup is $4. Thank you for your kind comment about the 12-Hour Meat Sauce with linguine.

Ate at Sebastiano's a few times while in Toledo for an extended work trip. It was so good we just kept coming back! Servers were very friendly, and the food was excellent. Loved the appetizer mussels, and the salads with added anchovies were perfect. I'd recommend this restaurant to anybody visiting Toledo.

After a 600 mile drive we asked the hotel clerk for a good Italian restaurant and were directed here. We are 3 New Yorkers who are very particular and we each had only praise for our meals. We must leave the Maumee/Toledo area but for you lucky enough to be local don't miss this place. Sebastiano's is clean, cozy, and with a friendly atmosphere.
