The chicken was well prepared, and the vegetables were cooked to perfection, even the potatoes were done perfectly Not too far from the scenic part of Niagara on the lake about 15 minutes away. Highly recommended will come again.

If you're ever in the area, I highly recommend giving Twisted Pig a try for some amazing Italian food!

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.

We were there for Sun dinner as a big group of 16 as a gathering of high school classmates. We were seated at one long table. Our waitress handled orders well except for my unlimited refill pop, I asked her 3 times for a refill and she kept forgetting. I never got the refill. The food tasted good and were plated well. There was a large variety of food options. The only bad dish was the Vegan Pizza which looked horrible! They were kind enough to listen to the customer and remake it to her specifications. Entree prices ranged $14 to $23 to $29. The restaurant is well-decorated . They seem to like European family motorcycles. The manager was very friendly, helpful, and cooperative.

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!
