Very nice Italian style restaurant, portions were a bit small for the price, but pretty close.

Wait staff & management were great & seemed to be having a good time.

They accommodated us quickly despite not having a reservation which I would suggest if you plan to eat between 7pm & 9pm.

Great location in old town.

My husband & I were happy to dine at this lovely little Italian restaurant.

Our filet mignon was cooked perfectly, & tasted delicious. Our antipasti were also very good (arancini aux champignons & la buratta avec prosciutto e pain).

Overall, very nice in comparison to other local Italian restaurants within Quebéc City.

Our only critique is that the restaurant should consider getting a better espresso machine, as the espresso was very watery & too long.

Merci!

I had some free time walking around Quebec City & got a bit hungry, after about 10 min of looking I crossed a this low key Italian restaurant with traditional music playing. I hesitated but the owner welcomed me over. I picked a patio seat & told him your choice on the meal. I wasn't disappointed, appetizer was a tasty vegetable soup with Parma sprinkled over, no salt needed. Then came this beautiful sandwich with bocconcini tomatoes prosciutto on a amazing cheese bread 👌🏾 best choice I made coming here. Salad was great & fries for side. I recommend this place. I feel guilty eating alone today but I'll bring my girl here for my return visit. Thank you Helder.

Fantastic place. You can smell the sauce the second you step in. Had the pitcher of sangria with our delicious dinner. Best sangria town. The owner is so friendly, asking everyone if all is good. A must go to in Quebec if you want an authentic Italian dinner. Will be back.

Our waitress today was amazing but the food was mediocre. Portions are very small & very overpriced. The food is not authentic Italian & doesn't have a lot of flavor. Not sure I'd come back.

Every time I'm in town, I make sure to stop by this place. The food is consistently amazing - fresh, flavorful, & truly authentic Italian. On top of that, the Ferrari-themed décor gives it such a unique & fun atmosphere. It's not just a meal, it's an experience. Highly recommend!
