    Service was top notch and though the restaurant was at capacity, we never felt ignored or had to wait. Our wine was recommended and it was chef's kiss! My salad and pizza were perfect. Husband's pasta was great (though the octopus starter was a little "dainty" - he wasn't able to really taste the octopus as there were only a few small bites). Tiramisu is the best in town. Overall it was a wonderful date night, at a reasonable price considering our three starters, two mains, dessert and wine. Thank you, Peter and team!

    Went there for Dine Around which has a set menu. Service was slow and the food was not presented well and lacked flavour.I had the boar ragu and it was basically a pile of shredded meat on fettuccine with hardly any Cheese,supposed to be smoked mozzarella,the endive salad was small and a bit dry. The dessert was fine.All in all a bit of a disappointment 😞I was expecting better.

    The Dine Around menus were both delicious. The cocktails were well made. The mocktail was interesting and festive. The restaurant was, as usual, very full so the ambient noise level was high.

    Food and table service was great but the initial greeting from hostess and table location was left to be desired. Hostess barely smiled when we arrived and she placed us in the table between a half wall, the side of bar and near kitchen and service traffic. It was noisy and too much traffic from servers and we had no ambiance or view. It felt like we at the kids table tucked away in a noisy corner. Very disappointed as this was my first time in 8 months being with both of my kids and really wanted a nice evening with them in a restaurant I had heard so much about.

    Our waitress was amazing, she was very descriptive when explaining the meals, she kept checking back with us and gave us a lot of time when deciding on what to order. The meals were very good, all 4 of us enjoyed our meals. Our meals came to us all at once and was nice and hot. We sat out of the restaurant in the Atrium, which made it not so noisy. Over all it was a very nice evening.

    Pizza was really good, lasagna was mediocre, chicken parmesan was old and rubbery (but they did credit that on our bill.) The salad was fresh and tasty. The service was pleasant but contrived.

    This restaurant has had a good reputation, but was disappointing overall. We all agreed the food was average and not worth the price. The service was also slow due to what appeared to be a staffing shortage. After taking our initial drink order, the waiter didn’t return for another 15 minutes. Good wine list though. For the price point, there are better Italian restaurants in the city.
