Nostalgic. Chef Damian and his team carefully articulate family meals from their home in Italy with sensibility, purpose, and definition. The menu, while short is sweet. I tasted most small plates and dining solo meant little room to indulge in a large plate. All small plates were fabulous and fresh, particularly the charred cabbage. A family favourite, the anolini was lovely. I was delighted to see Limoncello on the menu and it added a freshness to the bombolini, which was extraordinary by the way. Thank you for having me. Salute!

Our first time there, after reading some very good reviews. It’s worth the hype. We had an heirloom tomato salad, gnocchi that was pillowy soft, sea bass and a beef pasta appt with chicken stock. All were meticulously prepared. The atmosphere is casual as it’s inside a small space but overall it’s a pleasant vibe. I would recommend this place to anyone who wants beautiful Italian food served with a simple touch. 8.75/10

We had a special girls night out at Love Damian. I introduced my three girlfriends to this fantastic restaurant. They were so impressed with the friendly staff, fantastic food and wine. We ordered quite a few apps and entrees which we all shared. The flavours the chefs put together are sooo good and go well with the wine choices. If you haven’t dined at Love Damian, you are missing out.
