  Situated in a business area North of Toronto, Carmelina offers a mix of Italian and Mediterrean dishes.  It may not look really nice outside but the inside will surprise you:

  

  With the closure of Le Biftheque in plaza, there is no problems finding a parking space.

  A dimly lit classy interior:

  

  Blocks of complimentary bread:

  

  These were relatively dry but we were hungry so we had a couple.  They also provide a dish of olive oil.

  Italian Sausage:

  

  Seafood Pasta:

  

  Reasonably filled with calamari, shrimps, mussels, and scallops over linguini.

  As with most Italian pasta dishes, you walk away feeling that the dish was priced a bit too high.  My seafood pasta was around $20 and the Italian sausage was around $15.  Although it was a weekday evening, it was odd to have the restaurant was empty the entire time we were there.  Service was adequate for a casual dining environment.
