Over good restaurant for having a relaxed Italian meal. I have a bias but too many of the menu items have mushrooms.I will return for basic business meetings, but this is not a romantic night out type place.Parking: Easy to park near the doorKid-friendliness: This not kid friends and the diners would be upset to dine with children in such close proximity.

The pasta, when made al dente, is one of the best in town for us. Services are also excellent and done with warmth.

always a great spot to stop for a bite and a beer after the mall mayhem. Meatballs, caprese salad and Buffo bread are all a must.

Went here for dinner for Valentines day. Service is EXTREMELY slow, we got there for our reservation for 6:45pm didn't get a hello even until 7:03pmThen we got the menu which was sub par at best. Not alot of options but I found at least 2 things that I'd like to eat. Ordered the risotto balls and mushroom gnocchi.Took probably 20 mins for our waiter to return to our table every time she left. Food took about 30-45 minutes to come to our table. Oh, honorable mention, the waiter took the wrong dishes to our table first.When the food did arrive it looked like its been sitting in the window for at least 15 minutes. Risotto was good. Gnocchi was unedible. Have you ever had your mouth literally burn from how salty a dish is? Yeah imagine that ×2. Also gnocchi pasta size was the size of nibs.Atmosphere also was just... weird? Like echoy, empty rooms. Just odd. Then half way through dinner they shut down rooms and ask tables to move to another room. WeirdOh also, do not get the cannoli as dessert. The most powdery cream, stale waffer. Awful.When I mentioned things to our waiter she simply smiled and said "sorry for your experience" and gave us the bill...Ps: it wasn't busy at all. So can't blame it on that.Will not be returning.

Appys were so good. Garlic knots are recommended. Carbonara is more milky than yolky. Like an Alfredo.

They have gluten free noodles which are tasty but I wish they would also have a dairy free options. If you're lactose intolerant or don't eat dairy, there's not many options for you here, maybe 3 dishes. The food was very delicious including the tiramisu as well. Very tasty and the noodles done perfect al dente. The area where you can see the kitchen is cool to watch. I would recommend the food for sure, it's expensive but worth it. Around $20/plate and most of the noddles you have to pay extra $10 I think to add chicken or something. Kind of expensive! Way way better than Chianti's tho.However, I have one negative thing to say. If a worker is wearing gloves then keep the gloves on and don't touch your hair and keep using the same gloves. I saw the lady who wore gloves lightly bring her gloves to her hair beside her face multiple times. I'm sure it's a habit because she probably doesn't even notice but maybe make them wear a hair net or hair clips and fix the problem. Or don't bother wearing gloves at all. What's the point after that, the gloves have been contaminated by touching or lightly grazing her hair near the face and then back to touching things in the kitchen and food. Or just replace the gloves every time you touch your hair.Dietary restrictions: They have gluten free noodles but no options for dairy free. If you're lactose intolerant or don't eat dairy, there's not many options for you here. Maybe 3 dishes.

I dined at this restaurant recently, and I must say that the service provided by our server was excellent. He was friendly I just forgot to get his name. However, I cannot give the same praise to the food. Unfortunately, the quality and taste of the dishes fell short of my expectations. While the service was a highlight, the overall dining experience was somewhat disappointing due to the food.

Nice little restaurant on the west side of Chinook Mall with a good happy hour. They do have a few kid menu options (pasta and chicken fingers) that are not advertised on the menus too. Free and ample parking available at the mall too which is nice as well.
