Some of the cocktails were excellent, and the appetizers, pizza and pasta are very good. They have a comfortable patio that and receives a lot of light, and live entertainment inside (on the weekends I think). I went here a couple weeks ago, then a couple days later to get the diavolina pizza and truffle mushroom appetizer because they were so delicious. Overall good experiences!
Love it! UPDATE: new chairs- fantastic. My favourites are the arincini and the 500 fries. Everything is made to order which is amazing when you have allergies or dietary concerns. Live music lends itself to create a beautiful atmosphere.
Have been here twice.Really great atmosphere and great food. Live music was also a treat. Would return to this restaurant. Good location as well.
The best Italian that you don't have to pay an arm and a leg for.
All the juices for the cocktails are made in house no wonder they are so great.
Uncompromising freshness I didn't know till I got here food items are ordered then prepared daily. No wonder their the best.
Thanks 500 Cucina
This place is really special. The pizza is absolutely to die for. The crust is nice and thin with a little bit of crisp. Perfection! Owner and staff really care about your experience. They are genuine and welcoming. I encourage everyone to stop by and try it out, it will soon be a favourite spot of yours!
We thoroughly enjoyed our recent warm, early summer evening on a west facing and shaded patio savouring neapolitan style pizza, caprese salad and Peroni on tap. The pizzas, a cowboy and house special, were good value at $18 each and as good as anywhere in Calgary. The salad displayed great tomatoes as to taste and appearance with a large serving of cheese in the middle of the plate . The very experienced server was excellent and he could be characterized as providing european bistro service: efficient, prompt, attentive and unobtrusive. It was understandably busy on a Tuesday evening with a following that will now be increased by two.
This place filled up quick. We can for my brother's bday dinner at 530pm and we were the first ones here within 30 mins the restaurant was packed. Service was good, calamari was great, chicken supreme had delish sauce but thought the salad that came with it could have had better dressing. Lasagna was cheesy and rich. The chocolate layered mousse cake was fantastic and recommend ordering it. I had a groupon tonight, just a caution to take a look at the bill cuz they didn't redeem the right amount off. I had to ask the waiter again and then he had to bring us a corrected bill.
Loved dining here. A very nice waiter who helped us explaining the menu. Loved the food but the price was a little on the higher side. Ambience inside the restaurant was great. Definitely will recommend to friends.
Man oh man. The pizza here is f@$ked up good. Can't believe it. The Cowgirl pizza is unbelievable. They could call it the Oompaloompa pizza and I wouldn't care. It is, and I'm not kidding, one of the best things I've ever eaten in my life. Wow! The crust. The Porchetta. Arugula, a squeeze of lemon ....
Fill this place...but, please, save me a seat.

One of the best spots for pasta in the city. My favourite is the gnocchi. I love the ambience and will have to come back when it's nice out so I can try the patio.
So glad I was recommended to try this restaurant. The space is open and inviting, with high ceilings and modern furnishings. The server was friendly, attentive and never made you felt rush. The food was rich and full of flavor. Most pasta dishes were ~$19 which I felt was very reasonable considering the ingredients that went in them. I will definitely be back!
Great find! This restaurant has amazing food! We wanted to try everything it was so good and the service was great. Didn’t have a chance to try the arancini because they were already sold out :(
Otherwise amazing experience and the food really surprised us. We decided to order a few dishes to share family style as well which worked out good.
The service was spectacular. Felt like we were family. The food was good and was served quickly. Will be back to try more foods. Just wish they had vegan cheese for their pizza. So the pizza looks bare because there was no cheese.
Thankful to have a great Italian restaurant in Inglewood. I've visited multiple times and at different times of the day and have always had a fantastic experience. The service is great, the servers are very knowledgeable, the food is portioned well and presented nice.
Great service, great atmosphere, and great food. The drinks were good as well. I first went here because my stepmom saw it on You Gotta Eat Here, and then I came back again to bring a friend.
A great find in Inglewood. Genuine Italian dining that can accommodate gluten sensitive diners. We had sort of given up on Italian until we found Rocco's almost right outside our door. They even have a gluten free fryer, so we can have the Biftecca and parmesan fries.
Update Mar-2021: recently enjoyed a great dinner of polpette (meatballs) and focaccia, fresh and tangy sauce! Fantastic!
Love the gnocchi at Scarpetta Italian Eatery in Calgary, fantastic! My favourite pizza of late is the New Yorker - delish! Friendly atmosphere and great service, I am a regular at this great Inglewood restaurant.
The pizza was really good, we ordered the veggie one and the cheese one, and the waiter was super attentive to us. Just wish they had more options workout pork !
