Beautiful restaurant. Great vibes. Superb service. Went there today, for a baby shower. I can not express how amazing the service was. To the woman who single handedly served our entire party (40 guests), you deserve a raise! Fast service. Fresh produce. Great tasting food. This is a great place for yummy food and top quality service.

This is probably my favourite Italian restaurant to go to. Everything is absolutely delicious. I got the Seafood Risotto and it was perfect. The taste was creamy and bursting with flavour. The risotto was the perfect consistency and I would definitely get it again. The Orange Roughy was equally as good - a perfect blend of spices and toppings. Even the drinks were good. I got the Red Sangria which is honestly one of the best I’ve had. The service was awesome and they were very accommodating. The portion sizes were huge which was good for the price. The atmosphere is very inviting and homey. I would definitely check this restaurant out if you’re in the area!

Amazing food. So tasty and fresh and priced very well especially compared to the chains out there. Will chose here any day over most restaurants even with a 50 min drive for me. The atmosphere is beautiful especially the patio on the summer. Food is so tasty and well prepared, service is very accommodating. The owners are always present to ensure great customer experience. Can't speak highly enough of the great overall experience and taste. Will keep this as our favorite place to return to for many more years to come.

Went with my boyfriend for Mother's Day. He got the steak, and loved it. I got the seafood rose pasta and it was divine. Seafood was cooked to perfection. I got the gin and juice drink, and my boyfriend got the 5 oceans drink, which tasted like banana liquor as the dominant flavour. Lovely seating, there was an outdoor patio, dining room and bar. Good atmosphere. They gave us a rose as a parting gift due to the holiday. Would definitely recommend for anniversaries or special occasions, since their menu and prices can be in the 30-60 range per main.

Would be great if they add halal meats in the menu. We tried most vegetarian dishes and seafood. The taste of each dish is quite good. We had amazing apetizers, The Salad was fresh caprese, mushroom soup with crackers, stuffed mushrooms (most delicious), bruschetta (chef’s kiss). Mains we ordered salmon tarragon, orange roughy & tortellini fantasia - all tasted amazing dessert was light and fresh tiramisu that was spot on! Staff and service is good we plan to continue visiting this place
