13 Best Italian Restaurants in Thunder Bay

“Attended a private event here most recently. I must confess I was never there before. However after such a great experience in both the food quality, atmosphere and service, I think I found our new go to place in TBay for dining out. Hats off to Giorg Cucina e Barra.“

“This restaurant has come back as good as always. The ambiance is fabulous. Our server was attentive and knowledgeable. The food was delicious. We tried the deep fried ravioli, mozzarella sticks, chicken, Parmesan, Italian, stuffed peppers, shrimp, stuffed shells, and gnocchi. Everything was very flavourful. We really liked that you get bread, and a salad included with your meal which these days, is not common. We will definitely be back and highly recommend a visit for those who haven’t been recently.“

“Very nice cozy and amazing patio vibe is what you get here. And of course the pizzas are super good. I loved the dip they serve with focaccia for me that was really a highlight. Our server was very sweet and friendly and she made it sure we really can have a good time with nice suggestions for drinks too“

“Good for you for standing up for what you believe and welcoming EVERYONE regardless of their Vaxx status. This just has to END!“

“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.“

“A local favourite lunch spot. NYS has excellent food and great service. I usually just stick with the subs and pizza, both of which are excellent.

Hours are limited, but they're fast and friendly. Highly recommended.

Parking: Meter street parking, but I've never had an issue with finding a spot.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We hosted our intimate wedding reception at Laviché Café on September 28th, and it was absolutely perfect. After working a full morning service, Marcy and her amazing team transformed the space beautifully for our afternoon. The food was outstanding. The charcuterie board was stunning and delicious; and every little detail showed such care and professionalism. One thing that touched me deeply was how Marcy served the kids’ table first, without us even asking. It was such a thoughtful gesture that meant the world to us. Julia, our bartender/server, was also incredible... kind, funny and always attentive. She made sure everyone was happy. Marcy offered to take photos and shared them right away... something we didn’t realize we’d treasure so much until later. Thanks to her, we have beautiful memories of our dinner when everyone’s phones were away. Everything was flawless from start to finish. Marcy is truly the best host, and her kindness and attention to detail made our special day that much more memorable. 💕 I’ll add pictures of the beautiful space soon!“

“Good food Friendly staff“

“Love the staff, very friendly place to bring the kids too.“

“I wont lie, I felt bad because I ordered really late at night, but the guy who answered at the call center was so chill and nice about it! The food was good as always and it came at a reasonable time too. Props to Pizza Hut for never letting me down on a late night snack“

“Pizza Hut never disappoints! I tried their veg pizza with pan dough soft, well-cooked, and full of flavor. The manager was polite, and the cook did an excellent job with great care. As a vegetarian, I loved the fresh veggies and quality options. Great food, great service and highly recommended! 🍕“

“A Staff member could use a little more phone edicate education on how to not lie and make themselves more clear in what products they have in stock at the present time not lie. There's a difference between not having any at all and running out so there is none in stock at the present moment.
