N	Nicole Amaral on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ “Fresh whipped butter and olives” Wasn’t what I was expecting based on the menu description. At least take the butter out of the disposable packages and bring it to room temp. And don’t get me started on the sliced canned olives. How was I supposed to eat these?
W	Wayne H on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I had heard good things about this restaurant so wife and I decided to give it a try. I was very disappointed i had a glass of wine but found it very flat tasting like it had been opened for a day or so. I had the spaghetti and meatballs. It definitely wasn't homemade pasta the sauce was ok but the meatballs were very dry and i couldn't eat them. The service was good but never asked if the food was good. I will not be going back.
M	Magued Hanna on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ An amazing restaurant, great friendly atmosphere and service. The place is large with many seating options between inside and the patio. Patio is covered and has warmers. The scenery from to patio is so relaxing as it looks directly in to a big park. Food is great, burger is jucy and burst in flavor, big portion, if you like kale, the kale Ceasar salad is delicious. All in all an amazing experience in a cheerful environment. Recommended to do a reservation, specially over weekend as the restaurant gets pretty packed. Good thing is that it is in a plaza so no parking problem
T	Taylor on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Every time I come here there is an issue which makes me frustrated and not want to come back. Today I had a lunch and I had got a bad drink which the server easily replaced which I appreciated. I got a nice gluten free pizza and got a take out container to take my other half home. I walked out forgetting it on the table and not two minutes later when I realized came directly back. It turns out they had already thrown it away despite the restaurant nearly being empty and no need to rush cleaning. Consider waiting 10-15 minutes before throwing away your guest's expensive and specialized pizza.
F	Frank Dragone on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ If I could give no stars I would. How this place has a high rating... ordered the mushroom risotto: risotto was dry. mushrooms were crunchy. meal was totally bland. gnocchi: covered in pepper. basically inedible. spaghetti for my daughter: loaded with cracked black pepper to the point where it hurt my child to eat it. bland tomato sauce. I would be ashamed if this was my restaurant. High ratings are from people who have never eaten Italian food in their life.
N	Nanqi Hu on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I ordered take out with them today. Got mussels and beef brisket ravioli this time and they were quite delicious! I regretted for not asking for more sliced bread to dip with, there were lots of flavours in the sauce. The food was perfectly hot when I went to pick up and I enjoyed a nice and warm meal. I also went there for dine in over the summer, but the chicken parmesan we had last time wasn’t as impressive, so I’d say with this restaurant you need to know what’s good on their menu.
W	William Lun on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Food was amazing, good portion. One of the best locations in downtown Burlington especially if you sat by the glass window overlooking the lake, the park. Service was nice. This where you go if you want something nice but not so much till the point where it hurts your wallet. Loved it, def gonna come again
A	Anastasia Glow on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The ambiance was lovely. We got a table at the window which overlooked the water. The waiter was attentive and friendly. The bruschetta and green salad were delicious, but the lettuce looked a tad wilted. The fettuccine was cut way too thick (it has a texture of gnocchi), and the chicken that I added was dry and lacked flavour. The white wine cream sauce really redeemed my meal. The food came out steaming hot (literally, steam coming from the food) which made me think of Gordon Ramsay who said if a plate of food comes out with steam, then it was microwaved. I honestly wouldn’t be surprised. My husband enjoyed his spaghetti with shrimps in a lemon white wine sauce. He gave it a 7/10.
