Reviewers highlight dishes like cacio e pepe, meatballs, gnocchi, polpettes, carpaccio, and osso buco, all described as fresh, well executed and delicious, with pasta noted as al dente and sauces rich yet balanced. The wine list and attentive service are frequent strengths, contributing to memorable evenings and celebrations, while the staff are described as friendly and accommodating. Some critiques point to a small menu, high prices, and portions that feel generous in quality but light in quantity for the cost, and a few notes mention a noisier dining room. Overall the consensus is that Luciano Trattoria delivers high quality, refined Italian cooking with a homey vibe, best enjoyed with a reservation given its popularity.View restaurant profile

L'Épiphanie

Pizza BBQ

Review Summary

Phanie B.B.Q. is described across reviews as offering tasty pizza, fresh ingredients, and solid value with generous portions and fast delivery for takeout orders. The menu includes pizza and items like club sandwiches and poutine, and several diners praise the pepperoni pizza and a distinctive tomato sauce, noting the takeout experience can be very satisfying. Yet experiences with service range from courteous and quick to slow and unfriendly, and occasional mix ups occur, such as receiving fries instead of poutine or pizzas that are not cut and short on cheese or toppings. Some visitors question the BBQ branding, wondering why the menu lacks obvious barbecue items. Despite the inconsistencies, many reviewers say the place is a reliable casual option in the village and would return for the flavors, prices, and the overall takeout or dining experience.View restaurant profile
