Took a couple clients to Cardinale before the hockey game December 10. Server was great. Sat in the NW corner and that location is good. There were 4 of us. Ordered Focaccia bread and there were 2 pieces. Had to cut them. Should have been cut into 4 or be four pieces. 2 meals we had were good. 2 guests ordered Lasagna, which could have been better. The bottom pasta layer was overcooked and could barely cut through it. Not worth the $40 dollars per plate. To be honest, it was a little pricey for the quantity and quality of the food.
A regular at Cardinale for good reason, the food and drinks are outstanding and the fantastic service with a personal touch.
We've never had a bad meal here. The service was outstanding. Food, wine and company was top notch!
Our group of 6 really enjoyed dining at your restaurant. The service was great, food amazing and the ambience was really nice. Would definitely dine there again.
Our friends and us enjoyed a wonderful evening of wine , food and conversation. An active but intimate spot with attentive and friendly staff.

The food was very good. The Romaine Insalata and Foccacia bread were especially notable. Our waiter was excellent, friendly and attentive without being in your face.
The only cons would be that restaurant is fairly noisy and the decor is rather Spartan and not very cozy. Also, parking is expensive in the adjacent Casino parking lot.

I feel badly that I don't remember our server's name because I would love to recognize her directly. We had a really lovely evening celebrating a dear friend's birthday and our server was attentive while also leaving us to enjoy conversation. Her recommendations for wine and food were all spot-on and delicious. Thank you to our server - you are a gem!
An absolute gem of a dining experience! Food, service, location, all of it exceptional. Truly a new favourite place that we will be revisiting often.
Great environment, the menu is perfect, small but options for all

This is a regular spot for us. It's consistently good. THE SERVICE is excellent. The people are friendly. Really the only downfall for old people is it's very loud. We've gone early thinking it wouldn't be as bad, but it was crazy that night. That's out of their control. But I'm not sure what they could do to combat the overall loud din. But it's not enough that it would deter me from continuing to visit Rochelle as usual our server is fantastic. You should ask for her section. They're all good by the way. Cheers
Great food. A little dark tho, maybe that's the atmosphere.

Love this place. Second time in 2 months. Great take on traditional Italian dishes. Appreciate the extensive wine list and the fantastic personable service.
Always great food (the anchovies toast was fabulous!, as was the burrata, tagliatelle nero, veal and chocolate dessert) It was a delicious dinner!
Always have had memorable experiences dining here. Love coming back and getting consistent service every single time!!
