Best Italian restaurant in Canada

N	Noreen Crowell on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We had an amazing experience. The service was top notch. The servers were so attentive and the food was delicious So happy to have a local Italian restaurant with old fashion service. Also the new decor is definitely an upgrade.
W	William Pettigrew on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Went here for my sister's birthday on Apr 30th. Food was good but a little pricey for pasta. The restaurant is very cozy and our server Keith was exceptional. He made the day with his quick humour and attentive service. Thanks, Keith.
M	Mak P on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Worst service. My family and I always used to go here and enjoy a great meal together with great service. This last visit was terrible. We were ignored for a while after being seated, finally our server came over and said “are you ready to order a drink?” No hi hello, no name, no specials.. We never received bread but we awkwardly received oil and vinegar on the table. Server never came to check on us after we received our food and we also got served the wrong drink. Food was average but not worth it for the cost. We wanted to go out for a nice dinner on a Saturday, now we won’t be returning here again. I would never visit again.
A	Alta Alta on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ They have a new cook here -- Luigi -- who is fantastic. Their food was OK before, but now it is a "must experience" treat. Prices are not cheap, but they are reasonable for the quality of dining experience you will have here. Don't forget to have dessert -- it will be "the icing on the cake" for your meal. This is the best Italian dining experience within 20 miles of here.
P	P D on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This used to be our go -to place for us to take visitors from out of town for many years. Great food. Great service. But on our second-to-last visit there we sensed that something was missing and left disappointed after eating a mediocre meal. On our last visit the decor was rather bland and had seen better days. I don't eat lamb very often so was quite excited to get it here. The serving staff did their job but nothing more. None of the cheerfulness, friendliness or warmth of prior visits. Food was mediocre, I ate half of my meal, and definitely did not want a doggy bag. We were all glad to get out of there as quickly as possible. Rumour has it that there is a new chef. The restaurant is taking interest in customers again, and has just put a half-page colourful advertisement in the local newspaper. It tells us that the dining room has been newly renovated but unfortunately does not show a picture of it. And if getting discounts are important to you then on Saturdays an Sundays they offer a 10 percent discount between 3 and 5p.m. A bit of a narrow window and not much of an offer if they are trying to entice new diners. A new chef is a good start. On our last visit we dropped $200 on food that was barely edible. When I think of it, I can still conjure up its taste. Awful. A nicer dining area helps. But if this restaurant is to survive it most badly needs something that money and renovations cannot provide - that warm, inviting, and cheerful atmosphere that everyone in the restaurant, both staff and customers, used to jointly create. That can only come from the heart, not the wallet.
G	Gurpiar Sidhu on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We had one of our best experiences dining out at an Italian restaurant. This is my favorite Italian place in Surrey by far. The server, David, was very friendly and made our experience very memorable. We were amazed by how great the grilled calamari is!
M	Marnie Eudela-Umlas on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I am pretty much easy to please but when you make my family wait for more than an hour to get a not-so-worth it meal, then for the first time I will rate you the lowest. You have reservation options via Open Table, if you really want to serve your customers, you would only take in what you can serve and nothing more. The only thing pleasant about this resto are the servers, 2 female servers, very good customer service. I think the owner was there too but for some reason he talked to everyone but us, maybe selective? But anyways, we tried it but for sure we won’t be back. If you have time to kill, then go here. But if you’re tired from work and would love to unwind and enjoy a meal on time, walk along Marine Drive and there are other decent restos there, like Washington Avenue, Aljebires etc..worth your time and hear earned money :)
A	Amy Wu on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The pastas were amazing, everything else was okay. Our server was very friendly and nice, however the other employees were not very attentive (bread did not come for a long time - we had to ask for it, manager never came to verify the specials we'd asked about). ALSO - I must point out that when they were shredding cheese for us, they didn't say "tell me when", they just stopped after a small portion of cheese. For a table of cheese lovers, this was not acceptable. We ordered the Arancini and they were the smallest we've ever seen, and they tasted just okay. For pastas, we got Linguine Frutti Di Mare, Penne Pugliese and Short Rib Pappardelle - all were delicious. On Wednesday, pastas are 20% off so we got a great deal! Overall, I would come back for the pastas.
