Great atmosphere, lots of locals. Excellent service from the two waitresses. Food was authentic, felt like we were back in Europe. The menu had plenty of options that were impossible to choose from - just a lovely experience from start to finish! Thank you!
It is fantastic Restaurant!! Delicious food and super stuff! We will return for sure!
We were seated and served quickly. Staff was helpful and friendly. The food was delicious. The pasta of the day and Fungi pizza. The pizza crust is thin and light. I loved that they loaded on the mushrooms! The fish in the pasta dish was delicious and cooked perfectly. The restaurant filled up with diners as we were there just after 5pm on a Thursday. They do take reservations.
I highly suggest getting their daily specials. They’re all very good flavour and I highly enjoyed the scampi spaghetti and the appetizer (I forgot the name of the appetizer but it was bread topped with creamed cheese and pickled pomegranate with pesto). I also really enjoyed their salmon although the vegetables could’ve been cooked better. The dessert was also just the right amount of sweetness.
What an amazing experience! We ordered the fettuccine fungi and the clam linguine, both are amazing. Sauces and the texture of the pasta are perfect! If you are a fan of garlic you must love their pasta. Staffs are so kind and the atmosphere is warm. Can’t wait to come back again!
I had a wonderful experience at this restaurant! The service was warm, attentive, and genuinely friendly — it made us feel truly welcome. The food was not only delicious but also creatively presented. Each dish had a unique flavor profile, and it’s clear that a lot of thought went into the menu. I especially loved pizza— absolutely outstanding! Highly recommended — I’ll definitely be coming back!
The lasagna is simply exquisite, the cannelloni divine, and the focaccia with oil tasted like cloud nine. Truly a restaurant from the gods
Jackie was amazing!! I ordered the mushroom risotto, it came out quickly and was delicious. Service is great, our server made sure our experience was unforgettable. The place has a great vibe, can’t wait to return. Highly recommend!
