It was my first time here and we went for my mother's birthday. The patio looked lovely but we were…read morewarned we'd be harassed by bugs so opted for inside, which was a tad cramped, especially for six people. The servers were all pleasant and helped make recommendations. My husband and I split the cheese bread (he loved it; I thought it was okay), the arancini (delicious) and I had the wagyu ravioli, which was the perfect portion size. We also split a bottle of wine. Prices were reasonable.

We had a reservation and were seated very quickly on the patio. Our service was pretty good, although I think our meal ticket was forgotten because we got our food after two parties that arrived 20+ minutes after us. We shared a nice bottle of wine which was great. We also shared the croquettes and the cheese and garlic plate, which were fantastic. For dinner we had the lamb shank which was perfectly cooked. And their strawberry cheesecake in a jar was perfect. It was a fantastic meal. Their outdoor space is so cute and the aesthetic is super romantic. It was a great experience.

A few times over the last couple of years I have had problems with the staff either serving me an incorrect dish or serving it to me cold so I cannot rate this very highly. The price is comparable to all other BP's but I would not go to this place if you are in a rush or get very upset when your order gets messed up.

Mediocre food and service on a Friday night. We waiting at least an hour between appetizers and…read moremains. During that time no one checked in on us, or offered us any extra bread despite knowing food was delayed. Finally we asked our waiter at the 1 hour mark when food was coming and he said there were still 3 tables ahead so maybe another 15-20 minutes. After we finally received our food, the manager came and checked in. When we told him we waiting an hour he simply replied "It's a Friday night and we're fully seated. Thanks for waiting." Overall, the lack of empathy from the staff, the under seasoned pasta, and the overcooked risotto made this a very underwhelming experience. We will not be coming back. PS. No pictures because we inhaled our food.

Yesterday, we had a wonderful dinner at the new Buon Giorno, downtown on 17th. We hadn't been there…read morefor many years, and we wanted to try the brand new one. Its reputation is glowing, and many of the old staff have stayed on. Also, we were celebrating one year out of hospital for Linda - a long road of recovery that has led to her feeling better than ever. The remake of this restaurant, just down the street from the original location, was as good as it can possibly get. It was an icon, and it most certainly is even more so today. The décor, the design, the layout inside - were exceptional. What a great place! And the vibe! It buzzed with life and enjoyment, at the perfect level so you could still hear and have a comfortable conversation. This is a happy place. The service, from a professional and happy server who had been with Buon Giorno for 25 years, cheerful and attentive, was excellent. We started off with a Calamari Napolitana as a shared antipasto. Fried and breaded calamari, in a spicy tomato sauce, exactly to our liking. Delicious! We agreed that this was the best fried calamari we had ever tasted - and we have tasted quite a few. For my main, I chose the Gamberetti e Capesante Livornese - or, if you like, the shrimp and scallops in a light white wine tomato sauce with fresh basil. This was wonderfully delectable. It made me very happy. The serving size was perfect. Linda chose the Cannelloni Fiorentina, stuffed with veal, prosciutto and spinach in a bechamel tomato sauce. Oh, she loved it! All the flavours were perfectly integrated. The serving size was a bit larger than necessary (a personal observation), so some was left on the plate, but it was as delightful as it could get. We finished off with perfect deserts. I have to say something about Italian restaurants in Calgary. There are scores of them. The new Buon Giorno is one of the very best we've been to anywhere in Canada. Buon Giorno is right up there with the absolute best. No, I don't know anyone who works there, or any of the ownership, nor do I have a financial interest in this gem. But I am interested in supporting exceptional local restaurants. This is one of them.
