    Great food and service. Interior finishing would benefit from a cosmetic facelift, as it's a little tired.

    This place reserve to be packed! Starting with the great waiters and finishing with the food!! It was the best lasagna I've ever had, the ambiance was very cozy and romantic. The prices are okay, compared to other Italian restaurants in Downtown Vancouver. Usually I come here for lunch and business meetings but tonight I decided to go for dinner with my coworkers and overall was a great experience!

    Great food and wonderful service. We were able to get last minute reservations on Christmas Eve when our first restaurant fell through and we were very glad we ended up here!

    Service was outstanding, live piano was beautiful, prices were expensive, while the food was a bit salty and overpriced, it was still very fresh and good quality.
