We were hopeful for a great meal. The eggplant parm was cold in the middle & the ossobuco came in a tomatoe sauce which was not very good.
The calamari was great, but the main meal left us disappointed.

Excellent, service courtois & rapide, repas A-1 sur toute la ligne. &, mention spéciale au cook, vendredi 16 janvier, j'ai demandé à la serveuse s'il faisait la cuisson'black & blue', elle s'est informée & m'a dit' normalement non, mais il va tenter de trouver un moyen de vous faire ça', wow & c'était très réussi! Habituellement, dans les restos, quand c'est non, c'est non! Quelle initiative, ça c'est un cook qui va de l'avant! & tout le personnel est tellement courtois, A-1, vraiment une expérience très cool! Mon épouse a pris le spag carbonara, à base de jaunes d'oeufs, sublime! Ce resto sera dorénavant un incontournable quand on retournera en ville!

I had our dinner here as we stayed in the hotel 71. Food, service & atmosphere are all good. For food, I gave 4 stars & it is good but not very special for us.

The flavour of the dishes were very authentic, good portions, & overall lovely experience. The salad & spaghetti di mama were excellent, the soup of the day was creamy & well balanced. Good quality, portion sizes & reasonably priced.

The first place for the best Italian pasta in town! Enjoyed the Christmas Eve dinner at this authentic Italian restaurant chain in Quebec City. The pastas were amazingly delicious & the steak was perfectly cooked to accurate perfection & tasted better than anything else one can find anywhere else.
The atmosphere was fantastic & very refreshing welcoming experience. The service was also very pleasant & really enjoyable. Would definitely recommend this restaurant for an evening dinner , just make sure you have a reservation done before heading as it is very popular & busy.
