We ended up stranded at the Sheraton airport hotel & this place came up within walking distance. If we are ever in the city again, I would go out of my way to eat here. The food was so good. We had a variety of pizza & pasta dishes & everyone was happy. The atmosphere is great & the service is even better.

I really don't understand how this place has the reviews. We came based on convenient location to our hotel but the food was so bland! The lasagna had no flavor & the bread was clearly mass produced frozen dinner rolls. If you need an easy meal, go for it, but don't expect any sort of amazing experience.

It is a wonderful place to eat, amazing wait staff, food was tasty, the location was very near my hotel. The price was fair. The offered a free shuttle from Fairfield. (My driver was not friendly at all & the van spelled or tobacco & filth).

5 star .. the place is not that big but very fancy inside. Food is amazingly good. Compliment to the chef! I ordered pasta Primavera & it's not in the menu & I asked if they can make it, yes they did. Although its not the same as the one i tasted in Quebec, but it was delicious. My friend wanted pin?a colala drink also not in the menu, but they made her something similar without the coconut flavor but taste is close to Pina colada. They have a free shuttle pickup for nearby hotel & our driver is the young wizard of Oz. Our server is Carl. All the staff is super nice & very courteous. Highly recommended.

We were recommended to eat here while we were staying at the Sheraton in Montreal from a gentleman at the front desk. To say we were so happy with the recommendation was an understatement! The resteraunt offers a free shuttle to & from the hotel (make sure to have cash to tip the driver). It has been awhile since a gentleman has pulled out my chair in a resteraunt. This place is full of old world charm, & an understated class that you feel. The vibe is warm & it's clear that there is generations of love inside of these walls. The service was outstanding!! Carl was responsive & very kind, & knew the menu inside & out. The food was delish & the wine list versatile. The ride back to the hotel the driver was so kind & personable. I can't say enough positive things. Skip the chain resteraunts, this place is warm & homey & the food is brilliant. Thank you we will return.

Wow
Michel nous a proposer venir nous chercher à l'aéroport sans qu'on le demande, ce qui a mon avis est en partant une belle preuve d'un restaurant consciencieux qui apprécie leur clientèles.

Entrés, plats principaux & désert/café excellent de la première à la dernière bouché le tout arrosé un excellent chianti 2022.

On ne pouvais pas mieux commencé nos vacances dans le sud avec un bon souper au Focaccio.

Sergio est venu nous servir lui même. Service & expérience inoubliable.
Nous nous reverrons bientôt
Merci Michel & Sergio.
Ne Pas oublier whali qui nous offre l'aller retour de l'hôtel d'une façon courtoise & serviable.

Arrivederci

Eric & Cindy

This lively Italian restaurant was within walking distance of our airport hotel & we were pleasantly surprised with the excellent food & friendly service. Our server, Claudio, made helpful suggestions which were all delicious. I highly recommend the veal al Focaccio, which has the most exquisite sauce. & the chocolate gelato is flown in from Italy!
