In the back there is a dedicated pasta making station while the front has pizza and charcuterie stations as well. Service was nice and friendly. Exactly what it should be for a casual dining restaurant. Food was good but not spectacular. Risotto special featuring shrimp and mushrooms had a nice flavour but the risotto was undercooked and too hard. Malfadie Alla norcina was excellent and heavy. Creamy truffle taste coupled with sausage was the best dish of the day. Spicy pepperoni pizza was the best of the two pizzas. Clearly fresh and good flavour. Pizza dough was nice and thin. Pizza Bianca was a miss for us. The soft texture of the potato on top of the pizza was very strange to us and made the entire pizza feel weird. Overall, a repeatable solid Mississauga Italian place. I'd come back.

The calamari was delicious, just the right amount of seasoning and the sauce was good. The pizza was decent, the toppings were falling off the pizza (which I hated) but the toppings were fresh and the dough was good.

My personal favorite is the Jambalaya Pasta. It's a little spicy and very flavorful. Since someone has a seafood allergy, she is very thoughtful and offered to substitute more chicken for us.

They even have a candle warmer for the pizza, which was a first-time experience for me. You can enjoy the pizza at a warm temperature without it becoming hard. As for the Steak Frites, it was tasty.

Upon first glance, you realize it's a bar that one side has been converted into a dining area. Filled mostly with large booths and some tables. The evening we went, the place was packed but we managed to snag a booth. Menu is extensive and while it serves "Italian inspired" dishes, it mostly caters to a specific crowd that favours bland bar food. We ordered calamari, which was not good and each had pasta; fettuccine alfredo and butternut squash agnolotti. None of the dishes stood out. My vegetarian agnolotti was mediocre, lacking in flavour. The fettuccine had a whole lot of noodles and not much chicken, as advertised. Service was great. Lacy, our server was funny and super sarcastic. Shooting the breeze with her was fun. Pretty much the highlight of our evening. That and their beautiful bathroom! My buddy goes to the bathroom and comes back to tell me you have to check out the bathroom. I'm thinking he's trying to be funny and ask, is it a disaster? He says, no, it's beautiful. I say, what bathroom is going to be beautiful in this dive.. What usually compels me to eat at a restaurant is the cleanliness of their washroom, assuming I've seen it prior to. Anyway I go in and I'm impressed. 10/10. If they put in as much effort into their food as they did for the bathroom, they'd be winning. Should've taken a picture. Surprised no one has.

My new found "Secret Kitchen" to pick up healthy and delicious food for dinner and lunch the next day. Refreshingly delicious and many healthy choices to choose from. I've always wanted to change my eating habits to a healthier choice and did not want to compromise taste. Thankfully, I found the place to do so. Love that! It's about time this place opened. I highly recommend the kale salad, coslaw, the mouth waterin zucchini salad, and the amazing lemon grass chicken banh mi. Yummy! read more

It took SO LONG just to get our drinks & a long time after that for our food. My beef souvlaki was burnt & all fatty. The salad was too small and had no dressing on it. They only put a little oil on it. The Greek Potatoes were good & so was the tzatziki. But that's it. The only one who's food was decent was my sons girlfriends. She got the "Chicken on a Spit" or whatever it's called & her chicken was cooked perfectly. The food was awful !!!! The employee or owner didn't come to check on us even once or to see if we needed anything. We did need stuff , but didn't want to get up from our table to go ask her. Finally, my son's gf waved the lady over for "to go" containers & some napkins, which we needed earlier. She came back after a few minutes with them. Then I actually had to go up to the counter for the check She knew we were done & we sat there waiting & waiting , but, I went up to take care of it. It was $139.00 for a horrible eating experience. I tipped although she did not deserve it. She didn't do anything to get a tip. We left and were just soooo disappointed !!! I wanted to take them all out for a nice dinner & it was horrible. The restrooms needed to be cleaned up. They looked disgusting. I will never go back again !!!!!

It was decorated beautifully, with chic artwork and beautiful music playing on the speaker. We had made reservations in advance however, we then realized that reservations weren't necessary, as the restaurant only had guests at 2-3 tables at that time. We were greeted by a server, whom then brought us to the table that was reserved for us. Upon first being seated, we noticed that this particular server wasn't too friendly; she would complete her duties as required however, she seemed bothered, and didn't seem to be enthused to be serving us. Nonetheless, after placing our orders, we then waited patiently for the food to arrive. We had first settled on the calamari fritti, which were, too overcooked. They were much more crunchier than they should have been, tasting only somewhat more appetizing when dipped in the accompanying sauce. For our main dishes, I had settled on the veal masala with a mushroom sauce, with a side of vegetables and one potato (which I found a bit odd). The veal was tender, however, there was hardly any of it, along with the potatoes, which consisted of, only one potato. The vegetables were plentiful though, which was what filled me up. My mother had settled on the chicken, which one again, had one potato, and too much cream sauce. The pasta that my daughter ordered had a lot of meat in the sauce however, the meat was salty, and the pasta didn't have enough salt on it. Considering the price that we had paid, we were expecting a better array of food alas, we were disappointed. We even asked if complimentary bread was given, with the waitress looking confused. Overall, this restaurant had a great vibe to it however, we didn't find the server to be inviting, along with the food, which wasn't too appetizing. We wouldn't come back to this restaurant, and would reconsider our options for the next time.

In…read morefact, I was only here as we did a search for Italian when I was in the area and saw that it had fairly strong reviews. It's not really a trendy place, with the decor and the menu that could easy fit into 2005 seamlessly - but that's not a bad thing. When we came, they had an anniversary special for $39 which came with an appetizer, a main and a dessert. Both my wife and I opted for it. For appetizers, we chose: a beet salad and a crab cake. For entrees, my wife went with arctic char with roasted potato and veggies. I went with butternut squash ravioli. And for dessert we both got creme brulee. The quality of the ingredients and the food preparation really stood out. My wife absolutely loved her fish and said it was the best she's had in awhile. The sauce from my ravioli was so good that I took the remainder home. We were very happy with the service throughout. It all comes down to execution. If you were to read the menu, it looks pleasant enough, but it might not jump out you either. But I can say that if they're consistent, you will really enjoy your meal and probably have your expectations exceeded.
