Beautiful downtown restaurant, modern and and spacious. Staff are friendly, right from the hostess to bar and wait staff. We were having dinner before theatre show and made them aware of it and they were respectful of the time.
We started with the Zucchini Fritti (all yelpers said to try this and they are right as always!), the Pork Belly Ricotta and Calamari Fritti.
Zucchini Fritti - amazing thin strands of fried zucchini, light batter and very light tasting. The batter and oil they use to cook in it is fresh. The lemon cream Fresca that they too with it in my opinion is not needed as the zucchini stand alone by themselves. Next time I would get that on the side.
Pork Belly Ricotta - the BEST thing we ate there! MUST ORDER THIS Yelpers!! Soft pork belly, maple cider and fresh ricotta....what a taste sensation (my hubby's words)
Calamari Fritti - great portion, fresh fish, great batter and again they use fresh oil to fry so was so tasty.
For entrees our group had the following:
House Sausage Pizza - good thin crust but a little too well cooked for our liking so would not recommend.
Pipe Pasta - fresh and good flavour
Seafood Fregola - this is what I ordered (see photo) it was a saffron tomato broth (but I didn't taste the saffron) and had good helping of mussels, then some artic char, baby potatoes, and tiny tiny scallops. So what surprised me is how spicy the broth was which I didn't mind but menu does not say that so if you are ordering this make sure you like the kick! The fregola which is like a tiny round ball Pasta was sparse but good. Muscles were the star of the dish.
Desert we ordered the LEMON OLIVE CAKE & oh my is this amazing!! It's served warm and delicious...would order that again in a heartbeat.
Cocktail menu is cool and great drinks too.
Great choice for downtown quick dinner oh and also love the fact they have universal washrooms.
