About this restaurant

  • Charming
  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for fine wines
Italy is a country of breathtaking beauty - both the land and the people. It is this beauty that is the inspiration for Bonterra, a lively and spirited Italian Trattoria.

Chef Michael Preston prepares contemporary Italian fare with the emphasis on simple, fresh ingredients with an exciting twist. Experience the passions of Italy in our casual dining room; on our stunning Tuscan terrace; or in the Wine Room for a more private event.

Our vibrant cuisine perfectly reflects the passions, style, and gusto that is the Italian way of life.

PARKING: Complimentary three hour parking is available in the Indigo lot located behind the restaurant. Entrance to the lot is on 10th Ave SW, across from MEC. Come inside via the back entrance, and register your license plate on the Indigo tablet inside, found in front of the hostess stand.

    Why have we not attended their annual patio party before? What a fun evening of food and beverage stations. We met a number of the other guests, all very friendly. Special shout out to Erin and Christina O’Brien for their hospitality.

    Hi Jo anne, Thank you so much for your great review! We're delighted to hear that you had a great experience at Bonterra Trattoria. Our patio is a very popular attraction in summer for sure...but Calgary weather sure bites us sometimes :) The heaters are an on/off switch, but definitely work well with the chill. We look forward to welcoming you back soon during the hot times! Best regards, Bonterra Family
