I had the lasagna, which was hearty, cheesy, and delicious. My wife ordered the Lemon-Asparagus Salmon, and it was amazing -- perfectly cooked salmon that was tender and flaky, paired with a rich, creamy lemon-butter sauce. The veggies were cooked al dente, with the asparagus and charred tomatoes adding a ton of flavour, and the rice was beautifully cooked and seasoned. Even the side salads came out with great presentation and fresh flavour. Highly recommend this spot for anyone who loves Italian/Mediterranean food -- one of St. Catharines' gems!

We always love to order the saganaki but this time it was rock solid cold even after the fire/flames. So that was really disappointing. I ordered the Shrimp Amore, the shrimps tastes really good, seasoned well, good portion, and most importantly they came out hot lol but the mash potatoes and the veggies were again really cold... unfortunately. I've been here so many times and now I'm thinking it's time to go else where because I've definitely had better food. I just really enjoy the atmosphere but I don't think the price is worth the quality of the food you get.

It is a large restaurant with about 20-foot high ceilings. The decor is an industrial look. There is a small area that is a bar seating area, next to the bar. We ordered the following: 1. Lamb Ragu Papperdalle ($26). 2. Seafood Linguine ($28). 3. House Made Tiramisu ($10). The papperdalle pasta and linguine pasta were perfectly al dente. The slow-braided lamb shoulder ragu was very tasty and satisfying. The Seafood Linguine came with 2 shrimp, 2 bay scallops, 2 calamari rings, and 8 mussels. It came with sugo di pomodoro (Italian tomato sauce). The Tiramisu is made in-house and comes out in a glass jar. It was tasty. They didn't use the traditional lady figure and didn't have any alcohol in it. The service was good. We were there the day before Canadian Thanksgiving, which turns out to be their slowest day, so the service was attentive. I assume it is the same on a busy day. There is free WiFi. The restaurant is wheelchair accessible. There are separate male/female washrooms, and they are wheelchair accessible. There is free parking in the mall's parking lot. There are highchairs and booster seats for little children. Review 2023-334

The pasta tasted freshly made. Cooked perfectly. The sauce not too salty but rich and creamy. I had the gnocchi but forgot to take a pic. The portions are good but nothing overwhelming. The pizza has a good taste but could be cooked a little longer to add a better crust but I think that's just my preference. The service was extremely attentive and was warm and inviting.
