Great spot for a date night! Enjoyed my time here going in on Friday night. Service was great and the food was excellent.... Quality of ingredients is what separates them apart from other Italian restaurants! Only reason I’m giving 4 stars inside ofif 5 is because my risotto could of been done better! It was not as rich and creamy as I was hoping and was a bit to much liquidfor my preference. Highlight was the carrot cake, which is an absolute must try! Read more
Amazing! I came here with coworkers and it was one of the best dinners. It's very Southern Italy influenced, very favourable... and spice. Love it. A must visit when in Calgary. Read more
Pros: Wonderful and Attentive staff. food is savoury and with fresh fresh ingredients. The decor is wonderful and you get a the... full view of the kitchen and chef if you sit at the second bar. Cons: you are going to be here for a while. Two Mains tookabout 46 minutes to come. Also the food is a little pricy but the quality makes up for it. The high chairs are a bituncomfortable after you sit on time for a long time. Read more
Amazing night out at this wonderful restaurant in Mission. We sat at a table instead of the bar and the atmosphere was... charming. Recommend making reservations a week before at least. We ordered 3 different half size pasta dishes between the twoof us to share and it was just the right amount of food. We liked the Pappardelle pasta dish the most! Service was excellent aswell. Very high class and high end service. The staff seems to work well together as a team, always making sure we had what weneeded at all times. We got the Italian Cookies for dessert, but they were cold and hard... so maybe not the style cookies Ilike most. Would suggest trying one of the other desserts instead. All the food was high quality and authentic, made to order. None of the sauces were pre-prepared, which made the food even fresher. They only carry Italian brands, so I had amaretto withmy coffee. This was really tasty! This place is a definite go to for any one who is a fan of Italian! Read more

Had an amazing Dinner last night for my sister birthday. We got the Bistecca, Caprese, The feature Nduja pasta with zucchini,... tiramisu and lemon drops ???? The Steak was beautiful and melted in your mouth and the caprese was super fresh and lighttasting with a pistachio pesto that rocked, the pasta was really nice and had a bit of a kick. Everything tasted so good andperfect portions. The waiter was also very lovely, he was able to guide the whole meal for us super well and answers ourquestions before we even needed to ask them. Can’t believe I waited so long to have a meal here ?? Read more
This is a place worth trying out but overall, I have mixed feelings about it. The menu is designed for family style sharing: we... shared the mussels, risotto, gnocchi, balsamic glazed lamb sirloin, and veggies (patate and fagiolini). The gnocchi was topnotch! It was pillowy and soft but also a little bit melt in your mouth (the Tuscan kale adds a nice contrast to the softness).The other hit were the mussels which were very tender and had a medium spice to it (though could have been washed more in prepas some left a mouth of sand to deal with) but it would have been nice to have some bread accompany this dish to mop up thesauce afterwards. The dishes were well cooked but they come at a high price point which for what you get, is harder to meetexpectations. The service was very friendly and the atmosphere was lively. The last thing to be mindful of is their openkitchen - though entertaining to watch, it gets very smoky and you will go home smelling like the smoke. Read more
