The Margherita pizza was solid simple, fresh, & homemade tasting. The wood-fired oven gave the crust that perfect balance of crispness & chew that you hope for.

The real winner of the night, was the halloumi. If you're only ordering one appetizer, make it this one. The sweet & salty combination was incredibly well executed, & it completely stole the show. They also have a good selection of burrata that I wish we tried.

Service was decent. Our server seemed to be juggling quite a few tables throughout the evening, they weren't overly attentive.

The biggest letdown was the sangria. As someone who orders sangria often, this one missed the mark for me & was unfortunately one of the weakest I've had.

+: Accommodement, sommes arrivé 30 minutes plus tôt que notre réservation, vrai four à pizza donc pâte croustillante, plusieurs choix de pizza variés
-: Restaurant pas adapté du tout avec enfant, pas de table à langer, pas de menu enfant, chaise haute remplie de poussières/sel, ont mis un couteau coupant devant mon bebe sous mes yeux abasourdis. Le vin rouge était chaud. Entrée burrata décevante & pas savoureuse.

En sommes, nous n'avons pas eu de coup de coeur. Le personnel était mêlé.

Came after work meetings & was beyond impressed with the food, setting & service. Had the carbonara pasta with burrata & nearly died & went to heaven. It was honestly one of the best carbonaras I've had in quite a while, & more than reasonably priced! Calamari & tartare were also equally impressive (the tartare had a bit of a kick to it that was surprising so if you like a bit of spice, you'll love this clever twist). Found this restaurant by chance via a google search, now it's one I'll make sure to keep on my list should I ever find myself back in Quebec City's old town.

Changement de plan pour la St Valentin car ma conjointe était malade. Nous avons donc commander un take out à votre resto. Pour moi une pizza & pour ma conjointe une burrata. Tout était excellent !!!! une des meilleure pizza que j'ai mangé depuis longtemps & Burrata parfaite. Prochaine étape y aller pour une soirée car la place semblait vraiment bien.

Fun Italian restaurant with trendy design & lots of options, cocktails were good, but food was just okay. Pizza was a bit dry & we didn't love the burrata.

Très belle première fois, sûrement pas la dernière ! Pizza excellente & burrata pesto tomates également. Belle ambiance DJ samedi soir, ce fut très agréable !

Malheureusement, l'expérience culinaire a été assez décevante dans l'ensemble, malgré quelques points positifs. Pour commencer, la burrata manquait cruellement de saveur & se révélait fade, surtout pour un prix aussi élevé de 19 $. Quant au poulet à la milanaise, il semblait avoir été simplement décongelé, donnant une texture sèche, & accompagné d'une sauce tomate qui rappelait un produit d'épicerie. La portion de gnocchis, bien que généreusement facturée, était plutôt petite - mais heureusement, car le goût n'avait rien de spécial. En revanche, la pizza au chèvre était excellente, & il semble que la maison excelle davantage dans la préparation des pizzas. J'ai été déçue des autres plats italiens, qui n'ont pas été à la hauteur de nos attentes. À noter que mon verre en vitre était brisé sur le bord. Un risque pour les lèvres ! Aussi lorsque j'ai demandé un couteau pour couper mon poulet, je ne l'ai jamais reçu. Merci pour votre attention.

Nous avons partagé la salade cesar, la burrata de pesto aux tomates & un panino & tout était délicieux!! La serveuse très gentille & service rapide malgré l'achalandage. Je recommande :)

Pas de papier de toilette dans la toilette, toilettes bouchées, pas de fourchette, verres sales & mouillés, pinte fissurée & craquée, couteaux lousses, portions toutes petites, prix très cher pour ce que c'est. Burrata était délicieux.
