    All the food was amazing — carbonara (!), cavil e pepe gnocchi, and a special appetizer of three small pizzas with broccoletti and pancetta were awesome. Greet atmosphere too.

    We loved Bar Italia! The food was absolutely delicious and the waitstaff were outstanding - very professional. The prices were reasonable and they have a very good and reasonably priced wine selection. We highly recommend this restaurant and would definitely go there again.

    The food was just ok. The brown sourdough bread paired with the burrata was too strong given the delicate flavour of the burrata. It looked a bit thrown together with a couple of cherry tomatoes and some rocket. The cacio e Pepe was a bit bland. I had the same pasta earlier in the week at a much cheaper restaurant and it was not nearly as good at cafe Italia. The music stopped 3-4 times for 10-15 minutes, making the downstairs crowded room feel awkward. Especially when the couple beside me argued throughout their meal. There were quite a few fruit flies around the balsamic and wine. The Italian server was great and very friendly. Overall a pretty expensive mediocre meal.
