Hidden gem on Monkland! Charming & intimate restaurant with homemade pasta & other fresh, delicious food; lots of appetizing choices; & outstanding, efficient service. Our service from Sarah was exceptionally friendly & helpful. Our group chanced on this restaurant & will definitely return. Highly recommend!
Quaint & romantic spot for authentic Italian food, fresh & flavorful.
We went for Valentines & there was a Table d'hôte spécial. We opted for À la carte. Excellent Burrata. Excellent Lasagna. Chicken parm was also cooked to perfection. & generous portion meals.
The service was mediocre, busy night certainly due to the event. Not sure if typical or not. But waitress never brought us our drinks or sharing plates. Still very welcoming & kind however.
Would return to try other pasta for sure.

We were a group of four, & while everyone else seemed happy with their meals, I personally found the experience a bit underwhelming. The restaurant came highly recommended, but for me, it didn't quite live up to the hype.
The food was okay overall, but I found it lacking in seasoning & depth. I ordered the lobster pasta, which unfortunately didn't taste fresh, it was dry & had a slightly fishy flavour that was hard to overlook.
That said, our server was great, friendly, attentive, & added a positive touch to the evening. Service definitely stood out, even if the food fell short.
Would I go back? Maybe, but I'd try something different on the menu.
overall not a great experience. painfully slow service wayyy past rush hour. both pasta's were quite unremarkable. Calamari was good however, light & fresh. overall 2/5
Favorite Italian place! Their pasta sauce rosée is always delicious & they gracefully offered to add some chicken! In the appetizers, the calamari are always fresh & tasty, coming with a delicious side sauce, I highly recommend !
Also, don't forget to try their tiramisu & canoli, they are to die for !
Our party of three had the table d'hôte. Fabulous antipasti, extraordinary fresh pasta, great drinks, desserts to die for. Our only regret, not asking the name of the young lady who served us. Her charm alone is reason enough to go back. Kudos!
Great place in NDG to those who know. There's also an old port location. It's a restaurant market style place with a small menu where everything is made with care & detail. Food is fresh & a real hidden gem!
We tried the food at this restaurant, & the waitress was fantastic. The atmosphere was good, & we ordered pasta & lasagna. The pasta tasted great, but unfortunately, I found a small piece of plastic in the lasagna, which makes me think they may use pre-made lasagna instead of making it fresh. If it weren't for the plastic, I would have given them 5 stars, but because of that, I'm giving them 3 stars.
