Visited on Saturday at 11:30am and enjoyed it so much we went again Sunday at 5pm! Cute little place where you order first at the counter then they bring your food to the table. Service is very quick.
Sat- we had polpette to start. The boys liked it but the texture was a little hard and not as flavourful as I hoped. The sauce was tart and enough to mop up the 3 meatballs. My linguine carbonara was a bit saucy almost like a cream sauce vs the traditional carbonara that shouldn't leave much sauce on my plate but the noodles were perfectly cooked and not too salty with the pancetta. It came with a small bun which had a good chew and light middle.
Our son had penne Alfredo as part of a kids meal which was very tasty. Hubby ordered the picante pizza. Really yummy, thin crust with cornmeal dusting and not slathered in cheese. It was enough to hold the toppings together and it was very spicy from the chili oil- exactly the way hubby likes it!
The kids meal comes with dessert- gelato or bombolini. We chose the latter. They make them to order so these warm gooey Nutella filled balls of joy rolled in granulated sugar came out and was the perfect end to our meal. 4 in a half order or 8 in a full order. Soooo worth it! Hubby and I both had americanos which were very smooth and medium roast. Wonderful lunch!
Sunday 5pm/ not super hungry so I ordered the poutine with no cheese. It's definitely a meal with the amount of meat and sauce on the fries! Hubby ordered the same pizza again as the day before!
For the price pint and quality, this is a good deal for upscale, Italian fast food. Clearly, we'll return to try more items as they have a really great brunch menu with French toast, eggs Benny and lemon blueberry ricotta pancakes. They also offer a Sunday family feast and have feature nights so check it out!
