    Don't bother. Worst service and food ever!! My partner and I are Vegans....its a big mistake at this place. They had almost nothing on the menu so they sold us a "vegan" brown risotta that was on their $8.00 happy hour menu and charged full entre price of a Lasagna entree...if you don't order drinks they don't bring bread. Loud and uncomfortable place....we should have gone to McMinnimins The Labrador which is across the street.

    This is an excellent, elegant restaurant - the tables were not too close, the place was not very noisy, and it had a great ambiance - making it ideal for a special occasion. Quite a few choices for vegetarians. I don't know what authentic Italian food is like, but this was different from the Olive Garden kind of food. They used less cheese and more vegetables. The foccacia+butternut squash spread & veg lasagna were awesome. We also tried the gnocchi, mixed bean soup, and flan desert all of which were delicious. Prices were not too much more than an OG and portions were decent.
