My friend & I had an amazing experience at this restaurant.
We came without a reservation on a Saturday evening & we were quickly assigned a table.
We really didn't have to wait long at any point during our experience.
We arrived at 18h20 & left with a full belly at 19h30.
We received the menu quickly & the waiter came 5 minutes later to take our order.
Parmesan cheese was offered both when we were served the appetizers & main dishes.
The virgin bloody Cesar was excellent.
The Italian wedding soup was very good, my friend even ordered a second serving.
The garden salad was very refreshing & had just the right amount of dressing.
My friend thinks the Canadian calzone was very good. It was served with a side of marinara sauce & spicy oil.
I really liked the spaghetti & meatballs.
All the staff were very friendly & polite.
I read a review saying the waiter did not put his leftover food in a container he will take home. I had the same experience, the waiter left us a container to put our leftovers in, but I think this is completely fine considering the prices at this restaurant are affordable. I would expect the waiter to do it for me if I were dining at an expensive restaurant.
Waitress was very nice & patient it was our first time out for lunch with our 5 month old :) the food was delicious!
This is a processed food restaurant, & even the salad was ‚limp', sorry to say this place will only be on my visit list prior to close starvation
Superbe resto, très propre, personnel rapide & courtois. Excellente nourriture 👌😎💖
Excellent service bel endroit pour travailler avec le wifi gratuit merci
Pizza 🍕 trop salé pour nous & salade 🥗 César ok sans plus. Moi je n' y retourne pas.Les miroirs le long du mur des banquettes était tous malpropres.
We were 5 & had to wait an hour before getting served. The waiters were lost & constantly switching. They were clearly making up excuses every time they made us wait but atleast they were kind. On top of it all, the food was extremely bland & not at all restaurant quality, not all of it is bad as the others at my table had great meals tho.
A masterclass in how not to run a restaurant.
We arrived at 6:30 on a Saturday night without a reservation & were seated quickly. That was the only thing that went smoothly.
Then came the waiting game. Forty minutes passed before anyone brought menus or acknowledged us. I started noticing something odd-no one around us had food. It felt more like a holding area than a dining room.
When the waiter finally showed up, we ordered a 4-meat pizza, chicken & shrimp scampi, a Brio, & a Corona Cero. He came by after a good 30-40 minutes to tell us the shrimp might take a while. Apparently, they were catching them fresh.
The food arrived just before 8pm. My pizza looked like it had been ready for ages-dry, barely warm, & the crust? Pure white bread. Not pizza dough. Not even close. It tasted like someone tried to recreate pizza based on a vague description & a blurry photo.
My girlfriend's scampi didn't fare much better. She said the sauce was'unusual,' to put it nicely, ate most but left half of the chicken, & asked for a takeout box. The waiter dropped a plastic container on the table & walked off. No offer to pack it up-apparently, that's now a DIY task. Isn't that why we tip?
To top it off, the $3.99 Corona Cero was listed as a $5.49 Becks s/a on the bill. I didn't bother arguing. The waiter never came back for the card machine anyway-I paid & left, just glad it was over.
Now, to be fair: the staff on hand seemed to be doing their best. But it was painfully obvious they were understaffed for such a busy night, & the whole experience suffered because of it.
This wasn't my first visit, but it will absolutely be my last. If you're in the mood for long waits, dry pizza, & DIY leftovers, this place has you covered.
Extrêmement long avant d'être servi. Je conviens que le restaurant était bondé mais nous avons attendu plus de 90 minutes avant d'être servi. Il a été difficile d'avoir un deuxième pain alors qu' il est supposé être à volonté.
Nous avons bien aimer la salade , le pain & la liqueur à volonté nous avons manger des poulet parmigiana tout était bien sauf le poulet qui étais bien trop cuit presque brûlé. J'y retournerai mais je mangerai que des pâtes cette fois si
Nous y sommes allées en couple pour souper un samedi soir. Excellent service & prix très abordable pour grosse assiette.
Bon drink aussi a bon prix
Un incontournable. Les pâtes sont goûteuse & les portions généreuses
Belle ambiance, oui le service était un peu long mais c'était dans la bonne humeur & beaucoup de gentillesse.
Famille de 4 (2 adultes 2 ados) un Mardi après le parc aquatique vers 19h. Beaucoup de jeunes familles pour profiter des repas enfants gratuits. Service excellent (serveuse revenait souvent pour voir si nous avions besoin autre chose). Cuisine un peu lente mais la serveuse nous rapportait du pain & boissons pour nous faire patienter. Pâtes excellentes (cuites Al dente, ce qui est plutôt rare dans les chaines) & bonnes portions.
