Ambiance galore. Fantastic tiramisu. In Thunder Bay, whatever you do, this is a place not to miss.

Great food and even better service. The gnocchi was out of the park!
Thomas Richards
Great service by Alexander. Start with the Meatballs, Veal is excellent. Big fan of the panzerotti as well.

This place calls for a reservation we didn't have one and the staff made room for us to sit. Food was plentiful and very tasty.

$16 for a cesar salad on a small plate with zero bacon, barely any dressing. Stale bread and crap balsamic. All their apps are frozen mediocrity from Sysco. Can't speak for their mains, but this place is as meh as most restaurants in this town. Cocktails are also low-effort meh. The ambiance was nice tho. Service was pretty good, other than the waitress asking how things were and not sticking around for even a moment to hear the answer.

Authentic Italian restaurant with an excellent selection of menu items for every appetite. Healthy portion sizes are excellent value for the money. The restaurant has the best seating for the space that's available. It's pretty tight in a few spots, and you often get "rubbed" when people pass by. This restaurant is very popular and because of it, and the number of customers, It becomes a bit louder. Our servers were pleasant, but were more consumed with another table, that had customers that seemed to be known by all the servers, so we were pushed aside a bit. However, when the food came out, everything was served perfectly. Overall, a great restaurant with an authentic Italian feel and a great selection of food and drinks!

Been here so many times and have loved it. But tonight was not! What the heck happened here? Felt like a fast food place! Total time there under 40 minutes - rushed. Food was bad. Entree had uncooked hard pasta, marinara tasted like it was out of a can and was bitter. So disappointed. Service was good but ran out of water and no offer of any other beverages. Will likely not be back and will spread the word.

Great place but the food is really subpar. Pizza crust has no chew, the bread was dry and cold, tiramasu was grainy. Service and ambience fantastic but the menu needs a refresh and clean slate.

Cute vibe but not good food. Pizza is equivalent to a frozen pizza
Great atmosphere but the food was not good. The pasta sauce tasted like it came straight from a jar. There was a party of 8 of us and we all agreed the meal was poor quality and totally over priced. Wish it would’ve been better!

I've eaten lunch here twice and rate this restaurant a ten out of ten. Service was impeccable and the food is authentically Italian. I had the pasta and rapini with Italian sausage on my second visit. The sauce was flavouful and nuanced. it was served piping hot. Bread is free and abundant. An exquisite experience that transported me to my youth in the seventies when I backpacked through Europe. The server understood my desire to have a slow, leisurely meal--the Italian way--I look forward to returning soon.

For the prices charged, the food severely lacks flavor. We ordered Naz’s Pizza ($23) and the Pasta Special ($24). Despite seeing a wood fire oven, the pizza wasn't wood-fired; it's only used for events. Which was fine, but the quality of ingredients was poor, and the crust felt cheap. I cannot recommend the pizza. The Pasta arrived cold and only had three pieces of chicken; it lacked flavor and tasted like buttered pasta. Service was incredibly slow. Considering the prices, I expected much more. The patio was the only positive aspect of our experience.
