    Dinner and service was fabulous. Veal scalopini was perfect. Russell looked after us very well. Ambience was fine except for the noise level. Hard to hear our conversation. We will be back.

    Very nice Italian eatery with great food. There are a lot of fish or shellfish options on the menu. If seafood is not your thing, then the menu becomes limited to a few choices.

    This restaurant was amazing. The tables were small but that just mean you had to get closer to the person you were with. It was very intimate, with the lighting and the space from other guests, it was a great experience. The staff was super friendly and made sure we were doing alright at all the right times. The food on the other hand. The food was delicious. Hands down would go again, especially for the crème brûlée.

    Spinach and ricotta ravioli with Italuan sausage/tomatoes (one of the daily specials) was excellent! I would definitely order it again.

    My 2nd time here in the past few weeks. Both times our servers were fabulous.... I cannot recall the first one but, last night was Nicolette. Everyone's meals were excellent... no complaints at all! Highly recommend 😊

    Everything was perfect literally from start to finish. From my cosmopolitan drink (no one ever does them right but this one was perfect!!) right to the creme brule for dessert. Not to mention the service was impeccable! Can't believe we've waited this long to enjoy this Barrie gem!
