Our server Tara is so nice, and polite and always checking with us . She take each order with detail and pack our leftover in a professional way Prix fixe menu is good deal . Nice and green colour decor
Last minute dinner on New Years Eve. Pleasantly surprised with the level of food, service and decor. A very nice young lady with a Spanish accent served my wife and I, we didn’t get her name. Very friendly and made the dinner exceptional. It’s a place we will definitely return to. Cheers, Happy New Year.

Great hidden Italian restaurant. Totally recommend. Had the Sunday Family feast. The Chicken Puttanesca was fantastic! Would come again.

I had an unfortunate very close call and nearly got food poisoning. I ordered the salmon dish and noticed that half the salmon was raw. I immediately brought it to the attention of the server who didn’t seem to understand how serious this can be to have a half cooked salmon. I asked for another dish and she said that can’t be done. I settled for her bringing me what was supposed to be a new salmon dish. I was shocked she brought me back the exact same dish with the salmon almost charcoaled and it was smushed with the original orzo dish base. The problem is the raw fish could have already contaminated the pasta so I was not risking getting food poisoning! I sent it back and asked for the chicken dish and they proceeded to make me wait 40 mins for that to come back. The restaurant was not busy so not sure why it took so long. Also awkward as all my friends already ate their mains. They tried to make it up to me by offering a free dessert but to be honest most restaurants would have taken the main off your bill. It just felt like the way they handled the situation was not professional and lacked experience. I would definitely not return to this restaurant!

First time dining in this place, we ordered a seafood linguine, truffle mushroom pasta, beef tartare and pistachio tiramisu. All three mains are delicious but tiramisu is so so, feels like the pistachio part is only for garnish on top. I love the beef tartare but my italian boyfriend said it could have a more in-depth taste. Both pasta dishes are top-notch, worths coming to try the food I think.

Excellent service and food was delicious. Was there with my bestie for lunch. We did the prix fix menu. Great value and the biscotti cheesecake was perfect! Not overly sweet. Perfect ending to the meal. It was our first time. I plan to bring hubby and my son next time to try other pasta dishes and the pizzas. The decor was beautiful! I would say a great date place or for catching up with girlfriends.
A truly amazing Italian restaurant — the food is delicious and the prices are incredibly reasonable. They even have different specials every day! It’s a perfect spot for dates or gatherings with friends. I celebrated my birthday here this year and was super satisfied. My favorites are their truffle pasta and all of their pizzas!

The food and service were both top-notch, and the modern atmosphere made the whole meal even better. The salmon orzo was outstanding — perfectly cooked and full of flavour. Highly recommend! We also got the pistachio tiramisu. The slice was big and perfect to share with 2 people.

Came for the afternoon tea for two. Love the atmosphere of the restaurant. The server we got seemed new since she couldn’t answer some of our questions and needed to go check and come back.
They present the selection of teas on a tray which is a nice touch but since it’s left out in the open air there is not much scent to the leaves anymore. Tea is served with one tea bag per person in a mug and a small teapot of hot water to share between two people. Normally each person gets their own teapot of the tea selected and it is kept warm with some sort of contraption like a candle or other means. Not the case here. You get one little teabag each and a pot of hot water to share. Not a fan.
The food that comes with the afternoon tea is mostly good. It’s beautifully presented. The lobster roll tasted more like tuna than lobster. Given this is an Italian restaurant I was expecting decent tiramisu but was sadly disappointed. The salmon tartare and mortadella croissant were good. The rest of the food was ok.
Overall an okay experience since it’s difficult to find good afternoon tea options in the area but could be better given the price point of approximately $70 per person

Food was bad, pasta was borderline undercooked. Service was horrible, they took forever to attend to attend to our table. Would not recommend.

Great service and great vibe!!!
Dishes were all very delicious especially the fungi (mushroom) pasta was amazing.
Grilled squid had great portions too. We loved their spicy sauce too.
We brought our own cake to celebrate a birthday, and the staff were so kind — they kept it in the fridge, brought it out with the candle lit, prepared side dishes, and even presented the cake on a pretty plate 🙌🏼 We gave a generous tip at the end as a thank-you gesture 💜💜💜
Will return for sure to try their fungi pasta again and other menu items that we didnt get to try🥰

Highly recommend this restaurant! I went for date night with my boyfriend. The workers were very attentive to our needs, and the food was really good as well. I recommend the spicy chicken rigatoni (blue plate) and the frittura di mare. The shrimp of the frittura di mare was perfectly cooked.
