AMAZING service...the food was top tier. Tony was our server, he was so professional and great right throughout ensuring we felt at home away from home. Highly recommend this restaurant đ

Absolutely love La Cucina! It was not my first visit, but it was my husband's. We were celebrating his birthday and every aspect of the evening was incredible. Food was delicious, wine was amazing and the owners were so gracious in their service and we enjoyed a glass of lemoncello in celebration of my husband's bday on the house. Can't wait for the next special occasion in our family so we can return! Thank you!
Everything from start time finish was amazing. Alana took great care of us and got us out on time for our show. Thank you for a spectacular evening!
Easily the best chef in the city. Friendly staff, owners know who their repeat customers are. Food is fantastic. Great rooftop patio in warm weather. Highly recommended.
Super cute and intimate space. Wish the lights were a bit dimmer but love that itâs smaller and you can see the kitchen. I had the lamb stew. To DIE for!!!! So much flavour. Lamb so tender! Get that bread to lap up the sauce and clean your plate

Our first visit to this restaurant and we had no expectations. Food was delicious- my lamb stew was flavourful and hot and perfectly cooked. My husband enjoyed his pasta dish with shrimp and lobster and our friends had the duck, which he loved, and the special, a seared tuna steak which was almost like a double portion. All dishes were seasoned well and came to us right from the open kitchen. Desserts were the blueberry lemon cheesecake (which was subbed with strawberries that night, but still fabulous) and a very light and fluffy crÚme brûlée. The only drawback was that my cappuccino, which I had ordered extra hot was lukewarm. Service was pleasant and attentive, but not over the top. Worth the trip to Guelph!
The tiramisu is phenomenal!

walked in and our host was so hostile. We came after dinner for a half price bottle of wine and the man greeting us told us âwe are a restaurant, we donât really do just drinksâ. Weâve been multiple times for their wine special and have had a great time but this was very off putting.
My wife and I came here on a Friday for a date night. Everything g was amazing. Tony put server was funny, and attentive but not annoying. He made suggestions, comments and cracked a couple of jokes but didnât hover or annoy us. The food was delicious, and we didnât wait too long. Weâve ordered from here on delivery, but decided to try it in person. It was a great experience.

Our dining experience was amazing from start to finish. The location, the staff, the food and the ambiance were perfect! The food was definitely the star of the show, each dish was perfectly prepared and presented. The calamari appetizer was so good I wanted to lick my plate, and the polenta appetizer (a daily special) with grilled peaches was also a winner. The pork roulade was an excellent choice, not to mention the delicious house made pasta! We can't wait to return to this amazing restaurant! Thanks to the entire team for an amazing evening, keep doing what you do and knocking it out of the park.
My husband and I dined here last night. It was our first time. The restaurant was charming, lovely atmosphere. Our server Tony was charming and attentive. We will certainly make the drive back to Guelph to dine again.

Shared app special (Polenta w/mushroom, sausage and truffle paste). Proceeded to order Beef in Barolo and Lamb chops. All proved very tasty and cooked as requested. Service was friendly and attentive. Definitely will return
First time here. I had the pork tenderloin which was an amazing dish. My guest had the evening special which was sea bass. She said it was great. Staff was attentive.

The ambiance was exactly as we had hoped. (We sat in the patio area)Service was wonderful. Our server was friendly and attentive without being over bearing. We were disappointed with our meal. Started with mussels which we found lacked flavour. Our main was lamb which surprisingly looked rare(red not pink inside) we were assured it was cooked properly but it was a turn off to us. Perhaps if we had been offered how we would have liked it cooked it would have been better. We ended dinner with a cappuccino which was amazing. We will return but will try a pasta or fish dish
