The Perfect Italian Restaurant My daughter has resided in the neighbourhood for a while and passes by this establishment daily. She had never stepped in till we visited from Ottawa. From the moment we arrived till the time we left we felt welcomed. This combined with the outstanding food made for an exceptional meal and visit. Our meals consisted of the eggplant parmagiano, the veal marsala and the seafood pesto spaghetti for our mains. We all concurred that each meal was fantastic. I can personally vouch for my meal of the seafood pesto spaghetti. It was a wonderful meal of shrimp, lobster, scallops combined with olives, pesto, sundried tomatoes and capers. Nicely balanced and delicious. We can also recommend the beet salad (yum) as an appetizer, the home made tiramisu and the imported chocolate torte. This all said you might conclude that I don’t get out much, but I have dined at many Italian restaurants in Ottawa and Montreal’s Little Italy, not to mention I have been fortunate enough to visit Italy on a couple of occasions. Our meals were on par or above any of the best meals we have had in these locations. We will be back. The following photo was borrowed from another reviewer. My meal looked exactly the same a year later ...
Amazing delicious food.. So tasty and generous in size.. It was my first time today there and I will definitely come back. I had a special salad with shrimp and avocado and it was well dressed and flavorful.. I had a branzino with pasta, veggies and roasted potato and it exceeded my expectations.. Rich flavor and soft and the potatoes were delicious and well roasted. The pasta I had with white sauce was also perfectly done.. My partner had veal chops with mushrooms and oh that was really good.. For dessert we had the creme caramel and the tiramisu both homemade and we finished it all! Service was attentive and friendly and Manuel and his work mate made our dinner experience very comfortable and welcoming.. Well located, easy parking and affordable.. Really one of the best Italians I’ve been in the city. Can’t wait to come back. Thank you!
Went with a group of six and we absolutely loved the restaurant! Our server Miguel had great wine recommendations and was super friendly and helpful throughout. Appetizers were very shareable and the main courses/dessert were impressive portions for the prices. Would come back again and recommend to anyone who loves Italian food! Would recommend any seafood platter.
I decided to come here for my birthday dinner because the other reviews were very convincing. They were right . We ordered the pear and prochuto salad and garlic shrimp as appetizers, very surprised by the size. It was enough for the 5 of us to each have a bite. Our main came out in a timely manner afterwards, portions very generous for the price. I personally ordered their risotto with shrimp, and got a lot of shrimp! And the desserts were amazing, definitely try the chocolate truffle and the tiramisu ! 100% coming again this year. Thank you for the wonderful birthday dinner
10/10. The food was amazing from start to finish everything we had from the apps to dessert was packed with flavour. The service was exceptional and the overall vibe of the place was great. Would 100% recommend and return here again
Excellent service and top tier food, from presentation and taste. Take time to hear the specials because you will not be disappointed if you have a well rounded palate. Cozy environment and a tucked away hidden gem of the Danforth. And the price to portion ratio is excellent value.
Very good food and very well priced. I got the shrimp carbonara and it was delicious. The server was very attentive given he was the only one working. Portion size was impressive for the price. The area is small and that nice because it gives you the option of being more private. I like the posters they have around the place. 10/10 would eat here again.
