The Express Restaurant - Italian Eatery

Ordered Spaghetti Primavera, sautéed veggies tossed in whit wine , garlic sun- dried tomatoes and basil sauce. No sun dried tomatoes in the pasta and no taste of basil sauce. Told the waiter no sun- dried tomatoes in the dish, he said he would talk to the chef. Ask what I would like, I told him sun-dried tomatoes. The waiter never got back to me with the sun- dried tomatoes or made any mention of my concerns.
I’m getting tired of restaurants providing poor quality dishes. Not to mention then asking for tips.

We ordered delivery. The pasta was quite nice. But we also ordered a grilled veggie salad. It was awful. $21 for a slim piece of courgette and a couple slices of red pepper thrown on top of bagged lettuce. Not even worth $4. Very disappointed.

A very good spot to enjoy the Italian food. The food was yummy and ofcourse good quality. Specially the pizza was so good. It is thin and soft with good amount of toppings which was perfect. The staff was good and helpful

If you’re looking for a little slice of Italy in Hamilton, let me save you the trouble , The Express Italian Eatery is it. From the moment you step inside, you feel like you’ve been welcomed into a family kitchen rather than a restaurant. The atmosphere is warm, the staff are genuinely passionate, and then… the food arrives, and you realize you’ve struck gold.

The Calzone alone deserves its own standing ovation. Golden, perfectly baked, with that irresistible balance of crisp outside and soft, cheesy goodness inside, it’s the kind of dish that makes you close your eyes for a moment just to take it all in. The pasta? Forget what you think you know about pasta. Every bite is fresh, rich, and bursting with the kind of authentic flavor that can only come from a kitchen that knows and loves real Italian cooking.

Every single plate that comes out feels like a love letter to Italy. Whether you’re diving into the pasta, tearing into that calzone, or sampling one of their other creations, there’s this unmistakable feeling that you’re tasting something made with heart, tradition, and a touch of Italy ! Thank you everyone and especially to Natasha for her incredible service and making us feel like part of the family.

The express is a good choice for lunch in Westdale, offering competitive prices and nice options. Their food tastes good, but falls a bit short of other nearby Italian options in that department. I'd recommend trying the lunch offers or daily special offers.
