Le restaurant est situé au centre touristique de la ville. Décor quitsch du restaurant qui lui donne son charme. Pizza prosciuto luigi: excellente, penne arrabiata: bonne, linguine au beurre: acceptable. Dessert: coupe à la vanille & aux fruits des bois. Serveurs sympathiques, bonne ambiance. Je recommande fortement la pizza prosciuto luigi.

I got a lunch menu with Pizza, Salad & coffee. The price was totally fine I thought at first, but then I received only one half of a Pizza even tho it wasn't mentioned anywhere on the menu...the lack of transparency is not really acceptable in my opinion, even though the Pizza was good. Service was quick & attentive. Overall below average.

The restaurant is an attraction in itself. We were transported to a quaint Italian villa in the heart of Quebec City. The servers were so friendly & we enjoyed talking with them. The Margherita pizza was loaded with cheese & the crust was prepared just right. Lemoncello was a great way to transition to the lovely lemon blueberry cheesecake.

We loved the restaurant vibe & atmosphere along with the great live accordion performer. The service was equally good. That's about the only positive things about our dining experience. All 3 ordered meals were not good & wrong. A surf & turf that was ordered medium rare was well done. They did replace the plate. The lobster tail was over cooked to the point the meat was minced as you removed it from the shell. A margarita pizza that had virtually no sauce & was so dry, that it was like a cardboard. No lie. Lastly, a seafood linguini that had next to no seafood. They did not charge us for the pizza, however, I would never return nor would I recommend this restaurant.

We were enticed by the very authentic atmosphere & had high hopes for simple comfort food. My husband is Italian & greatly appreciated the decor which reminded him of his parents' house. When the basket of bread arrived, we began to have doubts. The bread was cold. Some pieces looked like they were leftovers fron another table - different texture altogether. Butter was cold making it difficult to spread. The margarita pizza was the worst he'd ever eaten - too much sauce & cheese with no recognizable margarita flavour. The pasta arrabbiata was okay. We passed on dessert & left feeling that we had paid far too much for a less than mediocre meal. We should have spoken up while at the restaurant but, honestly, just wanted to get out.

Très dispendieux pour un repas très bas de gamme.
Repas froid & totalement sans goût. Les pâtes goûtent l'eau, la pizza avec le fromage froid, la sauce tomate sans goût. Vraiment déçue. Le parmesan est du parmesan style Kraft, même pas frais râpé. On est arrivé pour 19h & on est reparti vers 19h40....

Par contre, service courtois & chaleureux. Bonne ambiance.
