We traveled down from nanaimo for our daughter's birthday. The food was amazing. We were able to watch some of the live entertainment. The band sang happy birthday to our daughter, which see really appreciated. We will make a point of going back when we are in Victoria.

We visited Pagliacci’s and ordered the René Magritte Brussels Sprouts and wow, absolutely amazing! Perfectly roasted, beautifully seasoned, and bursting with flavour. It’s one of those dishes you try once and immediately want to reorder.
The ambiance, the service, and that incredible plate of Brussels sprouts made the whole experience feel special. Highly recommend this dish to anyone visiting you’ll be pleasantly surprised at how good Brussels sprouts can taste!

In the last 6 years, pasta prices here have gone up by about 10 dollars. This is absolutely insane. Their pasta is good but it's not the best and definitely NOT worth 33 dollars for a plate of pasta and nothing else. Sitting at a table in this place is a JOKE. Your are inches away from tables all around you and it is so LOUD that it is impossible to have a decent conversation or even have a nice time. I frequently see rats or mice running around this place as well. I won't be going to this hole in the wall again.

The wife and I love this place. It's a go-to for birthdays, anniversaries, or just a date night.
The service is always smooth and consistent.
The dining room is quite cozy too. Sitting outside is nice in the summer time as well.
The food is great. I appreciate being able to choose between a half and full portion.

Stopped in for an early lunch. Our server at another restaurant had reccomended we try this place. It's small and crowded, but the food is good and they had live music when we were there. Close to the mall. I had chicken Cesar salad and my friends had seafood lasagna. (Took a pic of our drinks but forgot a picture of the food 🤦🏻♀️)

Very squished seating, live music was a little loud for my liking, but food was amazing and servers were great.

The food was excellent! The spaghetti and meatballs were delicious. I had the lasagna and it was the best I have ever had. The music and atmosphere was terrific! I highly recommend this place

If they had better sauce for the noodles, I would’ve enjoyed it
First time visit! Friends had highly recommended this place; the line is justified. Bread was a little salty for my taste but it’s a minor quibble. Great atmosphere, wonderful staff, and the pasta was fantastic. Lots to take home for leftovers too, so keep that in mind if you are from out of town.

Always great food!

This is one of those places where the food doesn't taste very good and is just okay, but people go to because it's been around for a long time. Given the price, you'd expect a quality, well-made pasta but that is not what you'll get here -- it's pretty mediocre. I also don't enjoy how all of the tables are so close together and the service can be all over the place. When I went, it was like our table didn't even exist. It was a struggle to get anyone to acknowledge us to take our order and then our food was lukewarm.
