As a solo diner this Thursday evening I had the mushroom ravioli which was delicious! However, the temperature was a little cool for my liking. I asked if they could warm it up, but they replaced the dish entirely. I also had a vodka martini, which was rather skimpy in size and the 3 olives were meh... My server was perfunctory and did not have a name tag, nor did she identify herself. Overall, a pleasant experience, I sat by the fire, the music was tasteful and not too loud. Prices are on the high end but I definitely will be back.

I had the seafood risotto, and it was absolutely incredible -- perfectly cooked, rich, and full of flavor. The bruschetta was also perfect -- fresh, flavorful, and just the right start to the meal. The service was a little slow at times(refills/check if we were doing alright), and our table was on the smaller side, but the staff handled it well. The servers were quick to clear empty dishes, which made everything feel smooth and comfortable despite the space. Overall, a lovely experience from start to finish. Definitely one of Barrie's gems for fine dining -- we'll be back for sure!

BONUS points for having a in-house accordion player who sings old Italian classics on select weekends! I've been a couple times already and it's our go-to dine-out dinner spot in Fergus at the moment! We're tried their dinner and appetizer specials - pork always done to perfection and generous portions. On their regular menu, we had their calamari which was a bit generic and lack lustre. Their mushroom and pear pizza was ok as well. I'd honestly stick to their pastas and dinner specials!

They also have pizza and burgers on the menu. Street parking is available. Couple of recommendations for the restaurant. Make sure bread and olive oil are available on the menu, or at least offered at the start. Desserts are lacking. Since you have pizza on your menu, would be great if you offered Zeppole. Can't go wrong with deep fried pizza dough covered in icing sugar and warm Nutella to dunk in. ;) Anyway, great Italian restaurant in Lindsay... definitely going back.

Available pizza slices are out of sight below the counter, there were 4 varieties to choose from and I asked for Canadian. The crust was light and medium thick and I was happy with the toppings. No seating so I took my slice across the street to the park and found a bench. All told, competent, as expected and nothing outstanding either way.

Consistent. However, for my birthday my friend bought me a BBQ chicken pizza. The base was a sweet BBQ sauce. (Kind of like sweet chili Thai but not sure) He loaded it with double cheese, hot peppers, onions and green olives. This combo blew me away 10/10. It was so cheesy and the flavor was phenomenal. Next time I'd try swapping the olives for pineapple . Salty vs sweet But this pizza was sooo good. I want this from now on
