In an attempt to combat pandemic loneliness, a Toronto restaurant is giving away free meals.

Sugo Toronto, an Italian restaurant located on Bloor St. W, is offering to "buy you dinner or a coffee and a cannoli," if the pandemic has you suffering through feelings of loneliness or isolation.

"To anyone who’s feeling isolated, cut off, lonely, depressed or like they are losing control. Please give us a call and come up here," wrote the restaurant.

"You are not alone there are people in your community who love you and can help you find the connection and help you may need," they continued.

To take Sugo up on their compassionate offer, they are asking you call 416-535-1717 first.
