Pacini draws a mixed but mostly positive impression with a family friendly vibe, a popular bread bar, and casual decor. Families value the easy ordering for kids and the reliable bread bar, while some dishes like pasta, pizza and lasagne are well received though portions can feel small and prices high for the value. The gluten free options are praised for attention to cross contamination. Service is described as friendly and attentive on some visits but slower and less consistent on others, leading to occasional waits and miscommunications between kitchen and staff. The atmosphere and parking location add to a convenient experience, but several reviews note that the overall value varies and that the experience can depend on how busy the restaurant is.
Belle ambiance & bon service, mais les plats servis manquaient de goût & grosse déception pour la lasagne traditionnelle qui était partiellement brûlée, peu de sauce & une très petite portion. Je ne retournerai pas chez Pacini pour le souper. Je vais m'en tenir au déjeuner qui a toujours été à la hauteur de mes attentes.

Nous avons été servis par Vanessa. Nous avons grandement apprécié son entregent, sa vivacité, son intérêt , sa conversion. Nous reviendrons manger chez Pacini pour la joie de la revoir.
Food & ambiance were very good, & the bread bar was fantastic, as usual. We waited quite a bit after being seated & after ordering. Service was quite long throughout the evening - not the fault of our server, just that the restaurant was understaffed.

Maude nous a servi avec une gentillesse & efficacité remarquable. Par contre la toune pour les fêtes est pas mal trop forte on faisait le saut @ chaque fois
Very basic restaurant with steep prices for the quality you get. We ordered the parmigiana fries & onions which was really good! However, I ordered the Alfredo pasta & my husband the mille-feuilles lasagna. Honestly, the pasta was lukewarm at best, not much taste to it. Very basic plate. On the other hand, the lasagna was very hot but again not much taste to it. You do have access to the all you can eat bread bar but it’s just different type of bread that you can grill & different types of butter, it’s nice but not extraordinary either. The atmosphere is nice & calm though, so it allows you to have some nice conversations.
