I felt a little shy about going here in the past-it's a bit of an institution, you had to reserve in advance…but the new location on Wellington shows off the comfy (not stuffy) interior, & it was easy to reserve, so I got over myself &…had a wonderful experience. Went there for date night & it somehow managed to be a date-level place with a decent amount of atmosphere for a reasonable price. Wednesday is all-you-can-eat mussels with salad & dessert; two coffees & a bottle of sparkling water still put us a little under $100 before tax. Which isn't nothing, Lord knows, but for phenomenal service & absolutely delicious, fresh-cooked mussels in fresh-made sauce? Yes please!
It was so good I forgot to take pictures of the food! Pesto & Rosato sauces were lovely.
Highly recommend you give it a try. Pick up a bottle of wine nearby if you feel like it.
Quelle belle expérience dans ce magnifique petit restaurant italien. Tous les plats étaient excellents mais que dire du service!! Il s'agit probablement de ma meilleure expérience à vie dans un restaurant. Comme si tout cela n'était pas suffisant, les prix sont plus qu'abordables. Nous y retournerons assurément!! Merci L'In-Time pour cette superbe soirée!!
Restaurant très''cozy'', ambiance agréable. Petit restaurant donc s'assurer de réserver.
Excellent service.
Très bonne nourriture, la seule chose c'est les portions. La portion pourrait être un peu plus généreuse pour le prix des plats. Nos assiettes étaient pas très remplis & le fond du bol était visible...
Je recommande si vous avez pas une grosse appétit :)

Service impeccable: serveuse souriante, attentionnée, à l'écoute.
Bel ambiance: decontracté, relax, musique jazz.
Nous avons pris en entrées crostini pesto & crostini bruschetta. Repas principaux: moules au fromage bleu & moules sauce alfredo. Pour dessert, la crème brûlée. Le tout était savoureux, chaud, belle présentations. Bon rapport qualité-prix.
Je recommande absolument ce restaurant. Un bijou à découvrir!
Excellent date spot, so cozy & comfy & very very sweet. The staff is incredibly kind & endearing. The food is tasty, a very satiated craving. It's a fun concept for a restaurant, a unique spot, & a delight to visit. Plus-BYO!
Nourriture excellente, service exceptionnel de la part de Marleine. J'aurais amélioré la musique, mais ça demeure un choix personnel. Nous y retournerons.
As always, Vanessa is the best. I am ALWAYS recommending this restaurant to my friends (& even strangers) sometimes. The food is high quality, the service is amazing, & it's a Bring Your Own Wine.
