I always love this restaurant , happy to see that they put all their breads out again- one of the reasons why I love this place too.
Very intimate, very good ambiance and superb food. Not to mention staff were nice too. I had the feast for two that comes with a steak and it was sooo good.
One of the Italian restaurants I would always want to come back to!
We came here for a quick work lunch as it was in the area.
We were some of the first customers to arrive for lunch, so getting a table for our large group was no problem.
The service was very fast and friendly, and food arrived fairly quickly for the size of our group.
I opted for a grilled chicken and roasted vegetable dish. The chicken was nice and tender, but didn't really have a standout flavour. The garlic sauce that came on top was also very bland. I opted for a mixed vegetable side which I found a bit soggy due to all the mushrooms and kale, but the flavour was ok. The highlight of the dish was the grilled zucchini and peppers which were very good. I also thought the grilled lemon was a nice touch.
They have a very unique bread bar in the restaurant, with several types of bread that customers can top with flavoured butter, and toast on a large open grill in the centre of the restaurant. They also have balsamic vinegar and oil available for dipping.
Overall, it was ok for a quick work lunch but it was not a standout experience.
Very tasty mains! The bread bar is a bonus... the parmesan fries and wings were not do much but the steak, salmon and rosemary chicken were delicious!!! Friendly service..very communicative and attentive.
Italian food done right. I havent been in years and when we came in the staff were genial. I ordered the carbonara and it was so creamy. Better yet is their open bread bar! Where they have a large variety of breads and butters and an open grill. The expirence is one of a kind. I always feel that this restaurant should be way busier especially with the service it offers. If you are in Calgary Pacinis is a must.

What a lovely space with classic Italian drinks and food selection. Our server was very attentive and pleasant. The Risotto was splendid. And the bread bar is enjoyable as so fresh.
What a hidden little gem this restaurant is. There is a private party room, and a very nice lounge as well as a very large dining room. I completely loved toasting the bread on the grill.. The food was was excellent, all of us had a different meal, and the 9 of us each said the meals were excellent. The waiting staff were awesome. Highly recommend
