| - Came here with a group of 10 after work.
The location is a bit of a putoff - in a non-descript strip mall, but the bonus is plenty of parking. Outside it is cold but inside it is warm and the staff are friendly. The décor is clean and sort of modern. I ordered from the table d'hote - the minestrone to start with and the grilled veal chop for the main. The minestrone was decent, a bit bland but the saving grace was that they don't add the pasta until ordered so it isn't mushy. The grilled veal chop was nice - very nice presentation, lightly seasoned and grilled well, but overcooked. The side vegetables were pretty ordinary (are snow peas Italian?) and the potatoes were undercooked.
The wine list is underwhelming, full of SAQ standards and a surprisingly high proportion of non-Italian wines.
Overall, an okay experience. The food is okay, the prices are a little high but not outrageous, service is good, the wine list is weak.
We came here because it was close to work, and given the choice, I will not be coming back.
