When they are busy, you’ll hold the menu forever. It’s tasty, best calamari in Vancouver so far. I wish it would be more authentic wine, at least not Mission hill winery. Sprouts could be crispier, but salmon was good. Aperol not even sparkling I’d say nothing authentic or Italian. But it’s tasty, great atmosphere and good service.

Very good authenic Italian cuisine, super busy must book ahead! The cheese wheel was awsome but the truffle kinda took all the cheese flavors away, I personally like really cheese flavors but the truffle kinda took that away! Ordering steak was not the best idea but surprisingly it was cooked right on the T it was suppose to be for 4 to 5 ppl to share, but honestly 3ppl is perfect! Price was not really worth it though!!!Overall definitely I will come back and try other pastas!Enjoy everyone!!!

Currently they have lunch special during weekdays with three different pasta/risotto choices at $23 for one selection. An extra $8 for a starter salad. The serving size is decent. I order the mixed mushroom penni and it’s cooked perfectly al dente. The focaccia bread is soft and fluffy. Service is good. We sat outside in a partly sunny day so it’s lovely.

Wow this was such a nice find. We haven’t been to Vancouver in years so are trying new restaurants. We had lunch here coming as it just opened at 11:30. Beautiful patio. Attentive friendly service. The food was just stunning. The Caesar salad was big enough to share and has some of the best dressing I’ve ever had. A mix nice lettuces. Really well done. A must do.We then had pasta dishes. I had the special penne vodka with mushrooms. Just fantastic. Almost a creamy Arrabbiata sauce. We also had the squid ink pasta with seafood. This was really quite something. A number of baby clams, several nice scallops and several jumbo shrimps that could masquerade as baby lobster. A big dish and really quite impressive. We didn’t have dessert as we were stuffed.We will return. Loved it.
