Excellent Italian restaurant with a very classy vibe. Definitely try this place out if your are looking for a memorable dine in... experience.

Simply wow. I was here for a weekend from Toronto and felt like eating Italian for dinner. The place was buzzing as it was a... Friday Night. To be honest everything from the Bread, Bologna’s pasta, Red Snapper & Tiramisu were awesome. The portions werealso huge ( Specially the pasta). Celeste ( I am not sure if I got this name right ) was our server and he did a great jobexplaining us the things we should order and yes his recommendations didn’t disappoint. Would definitely come back the nexttime I am in town. Read more
Atmosphere is great. Warm and inviting, loud and exciting. Service was good in terms of pace and understanding table needs. No... chef specials. We ordered Cod, Snapper and chicken. The cod was nicely plated paired well with rapini, scallops cookedperfectly and sauce had nice flavor however I found the cod a little too fishy and I didn't finish it as a result. Everyoneenjoyed their meal but wouldn't order again. I had been looking forward to trying this place but I wasn't wowed. I do want to goback again and try the short ribs & pasta. Read more
The atmosphere was amazing! Loved the decorations in the restaurant. Appetizers were awesome! We had the octopus and Arancini... and I would highly recommended these two. Both pasta were okay… a bit pricy but it’s alright for a night out. We didmention special occasions during the reservation but no one acknowledged anything. Read more
I have been hearing about Nico for quite a while now. My husband and I decided to try it on a double date as we had only heard... good things and wanted an excuse to try it all. For starters we ordered the octopus linguini and the arancini. I was blown awayby the arancini - it isn't the traditional red tomato sauce but is paired with a light, creamy basil pesto sauce that ishonestly to die for. The octopus linguini came with mussels, octopus and pasta. This was a reach for me as I cannot handle spicebut let me tell you I ate as much as I could and I didn't mind that my lips were vibrating from heat. The seafood and pasta wascooked perfectly. My friend ordered the gnocchi Quattro funghi - I got to try it and while I am not a pasta girl this gnocchiwas so light and flavourful I might have to add it to my order options next visit. My husband and I both got the surf and turfgrill. We enjoyed these plates but found the meal had a cajun like flavour to it. I had to scrape off some of the seasoning asagain, it was a bit too spicy for my palate to handle but was tasty! Our other friend ordered the tomahawk which was absolutelydelicious - I was a bit scared by the peppercorn sauce in the title but I would gladly order it next visit. For dessert we triedthe tiramisu (I never turn one down) and I can't recall the other as it seems I can't find the dessert menu online. My onlycomplaint with dessert was that the tiramisu wasn't larger. I could've eaten a couple on my own! Overall, a great experience.The restaurant was much smaller than I expected but it is always full with customers - and for good reason. The food, staff,chairs and washrooms are top notch. Definitely worth a visit - while it is on the pricier side you can even save it for aspecial occasion! Lovely time out - will be back soon ! Read more
