Was way better with the former owner! Very average food and service. No reason to come back!
Meal was delicious, but we were over charged. We paid for a glass of wine ($19) that we did not have. And waiter brought a dish that he recommended, but we did not want so we gave it back to him. He charged us $15. Total of $34 for items we did not order! I guess it’s my fault because I did not look at bill close enough & gave him a 20% tip. Stupid me. Watch out next time at this place!
It is a fantastic Italian restaurant on the North Shore. From the owners of the old Quattra de Gusto on Lonsdale. Fabulous food and amazing servers. Experience and knowledge of the entire staff makes this a memorable meal for any occasion
Excellent food! We really enjoyed their pasta, prawns, and steak. All three pastas we tried were good, but I liked spaghetti Corsi the most. Cooked with their house special recipe, it was very tasty with a hint of spiciness. A must try! It was a bit of chaos on Friday night, but they were able to accommodate us with short notice. Cute and homey setting.
Cute restaurant that's been there forever! My family and I finally tried it and they served very good Italian food.
I was there few days ago with my family. We took three main dishes (two pastas and a steak) and a dessert. Let’s start with the positive notes. The dessert was amazing, an authentic homemade chocolate cake with caramel. Also the linguine pescatore were great. The other pasta was the “Spaghetti Corsi”, a dish for “real Italians only”. Given the description, I tried it: it is a new interpretation of the classic Italian pasta with beans, which may be either dry or wet, depending on the recipe (and on the Italian region). In my opinion, the dish was too “Americanised”, so that the flavours of the beans and of the fish (probably either rockfish or mackerel) were totally covered by pepper and other spices, a common practice in Italian-American cuisine. The steak was well-cooked and, overall, great. To note that the service was quite slow, but it seems frequent according to many reviews. Prices were a little higher than the expectations, given the dishes and the location, but overall okay. To sum up, if you don’t expect to eat authentic contemporary Italian cuisine but rather the fusion of Italian cuisine and North American tastes, I’ll recommend it to you (3.5/5).
Always behind the schedule.
