Parking
It's Danforth, what can I tell you - the best parking option is to take the subway. There's a Green P at 25 Ferrier Avenue to the east of us and one at 35 Erindale Avenue just to our west, and you might score a spot on the side streets but be careful - and be nice to the neighbours.

Parking
Welcome to The County! Side streets, Main Street, just be respectful of the signage and nice to the neighbours, they're good people!
We are so proud to have recreated our little Southern Italian Soul Food joint in the picturesque heart of Prince Edward County, and we hope you will join us again and again throughout the year.
Family Style Menu
Perfect for groups of 2-100.
Our kitchen will send you platters of Antipasti like calamari, caprese, arugula salad and spinach salad, then we hit you with platters of our pasta including lasagne, orecchiette and linguine, then you each get to pick your own individual main course from the Secondi list (exceptions may apply), plus insalata and grilled veggies on the side.
Saves almost all the decision making, covers all the bases, delicious and amazing.
No need to order in advance, we do this every day!
HAVE THE RESTAURANT TO YOURSELF!
Book a dinner for your bubble. A single table of 2-6, or multiple SOCIALLY-DISTANCED tables up to 6 persons each, in our dining room - and the whole place to yourself. Simply book a date and time, let us know how many; no minimum spend, no minimum number. Order from our existing menu, go Family Style, or we can work up something custom to make the outing even more intimate and personal. Just give us a call!
Our goal remains not just to serve our beloved clients a fantastic meal, but to do so with every precaution for your safety, your health, and to reduce every possible anxiety. We sanitize everything before and after each diner's visit, our ventilation system is backed by a MERV filter and a kitchen hood that draws 4,000 cubic feet of air from the room every minute! Hey, we live here, and we are all in this together!
We can provide plenty of suggestions; a vegetarian menu, a seafood menu, or a classic pasta overload! Just let us know what works for you and we will be ready!
You, your loved ones, and dinner at 7Numbers!
SUNDAY SUGO MENU!
In the restaurant Rosa prepares her signature tomato sauce vegan-friendly, but every Sunday in her home kitchen there is another tradition; the SUNDAY SUGO. With due respect to our veggie-lovers, this sauce might not be for you;
it is a fridge-emptying, gut-busting smorgasbord. The saucepot is loaded with stewing veal, salsicce (sausages), ribs, and anything else that happens to wander too close! Guest stars may include lamb, oxtail, rabbit, meatballs, and if you are among the truly fortunate… braciole!
At the table, you start with small bites of salumi, olives, cheese and fresh bread, followed by a simple pasta smothered in this rich, heart-warming, mouth-watering red sauce. Then, with another round of fresh bread, the meats hit the table; fall-off-the-bone, tender and tomato-sweet. For those raised in Italian homes under a strict regimen of caloric excess, we continue on with small-bite desserts, coffee and perhaps a little amaro to finish the afternoon, but for the rest of us, there is no shame in tapping out. Throughout the ages, this feast has prompted countless happy survivors to echo the phrase, "I need a nap".
Join us for your very own Sugo-inspired dining event. Book our dining room for a bubble-approved family get-together; multiple courses by candlelight with privacy and time to savour the company of loved ones. The best part? YOU don't have to wait for Sunday.

Rosa Marinuzzi's lasagne
We are so proud of our Rosie's appearance on Breakfast Television this morning (November 21/19)! She got hands-on with the lasagne and won some new fans!
Watch the clip here!
Rosa's Famiglia
Mention Rosa Marinuzzi's name, or that of her trattoria - 7Numbers - to anyone you meet in Toronto's Eglinton West neighbourhood and chances are they'll exclaim, "Mama Rosa?!" Whether at the local gelateria, the salon, the coffee shop, or the grocer, her laughter and joyful enthusiasm is more than just a reputation, it's a presence.
Born and raised on a farm near the town of Modugno in southern Italy, Rosa loves to tell stories of her childhood. From stealing fresh bread from the kitchen after school to sneaking into the cellar with her brother to pilfer fresh cheese or olive oil, her love of food started at a young age. With a focus on fresh, ripe ingredients, Rosa never fails to express their natural, vibrant flavours.
Rosa's Fritelle
Bet you can't have just one frittelle! Frittelle are traditional Italian Christmas Eve doughnuts. Delicious and light, you can have them savoury or sweet!
Ingredients
- Take a piece of pizza dough (you can use store-bought or frozen) the size of a tennis ball and flatten it with a rolling pin into a flat and round shape.
- The thickness of the dough should be no more than 1/4 of an inch.
Instructions
- Place 3-4 tbsp of your favourite filling in the center of the dough - scallions, mozzarella, tomatoes, grated Parmigiano cheese, Nutella, or leave them plain!
- Fold the dough over the filling and close it in the shape of a 1/2 moon.
- Press down the outer edges of the dough to completely seal the frittelle. Cut the excess dough away.
- Fry in olive oil until they are golden brown and serve (preferably!) very hot. If you are making sweet frittelle, you can cover them in cinnamon and sugar.
Taralli
Ingredients
- 4 cups Flour
- 1 tsp Salt
- 2/3 cups Extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 cup Dry white wine
- 1-2 tsp Fennel seeds and cracked black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F
- In a large bowl, mix the flour and salt.
- Add the oil and wine, and mix with a fork until the dough forms into a rough mass.
- On a wooden board, knead dough for approx. 5 minutes, until smooth.
Knead spices into dough.
- Cover the dough and let it rest for 15-30 minutes.
- Pinch walnut-sized pieces of dough, rolling first between your hands and then against the wooden cutting board, so that the dough forms a thin rope, about ½ inch (1 cm) in diameter and 4" long (10 cm).
- Shape each rope into a ring and seal the edges by pressing them together lightly, then set aside on a wooden board and cover with a towel.
- In the meantime, bring a large pot of water to boil.
- Put 6-10 of the taralli into the boiling water, and when they float to the surface (this will only take 30-60 seconds!) remove them with a slotted spoon and place them on a cloth to dry and cool.
- Put the cooled taralli on baking sheets and bake for approx. 25 minutes, until golden.
- Remove and cool on racks.
- Store in a closed container to keep them crisp.
