We finally escaped the kids and visited during the snowstorm on Wednesday, March 12th around 5:30pm. We were warmly greeted by Luca and given a couple tables to choose from. The restaurant seats 40 comfortably and is nicely decorated in browns/caramels and wood. It's a little thing, but having coat hooks near each table is a definite plus in our climate! We received complimentary sparkling water (they have flat too) along with a very nice bruschetta & olives. Warm bread with butter and olive oil/balsamic vinegar followed. I had the calamari and my wife had the portobello mushroom appetizer and both were excellent. We followed with Vitello Involtini (veal stuffed with tiger shrimp and cheeses in a brandy sauce) and Pollo Portafoglio (chicken stuffed with prosciutto, cheese and sage) respectively and both were delicious - we didn't leave a speck on either plate! The house red wine (Farnese Sangiovese) was surprisingly good (although I'm not wine snob) and it paired well with the veal. We finished with home made Tiramisu and Zuccotto (layered cake). A great way to finish a superb meal. We are thrilled to have a great Italian restaurant in Orleans and will definitely be back.

My brother got a large pepperoni pizza from Mama Rosa and lucky me I got to have a couple of…read moreslices. Overall it was ok. I personally like toppings on top of the cheese, as I like my pepperoni a bit crispy around the edges. Mama Rosa has their pepperoni under the cheese. He got the walk-in special, which I think was $12.99, which is reasonable. Their regular price for a large pepperoni pizza is $20.95. If you get 2, it's $37. The pepperoni at Mama Rosa is huge. It's not the small, slightly bigger than a Toonie pepperoni that most pizza places use. The pepperoni is like the huge deli meat salami kind. The sauce I found a bit sweeter than at other places. The amount of cheese was good, and the crust was a good thickness (not too thick). It came with some garlic dipping sauce, which I did not eat. Overall, good pizza. I would get again at walk-in special prices. The regular prices are too spendy for my liking. It's in a tiny strip mall and there's free parking.

Very cute little Italian restaurant serving fresh pastas…read more I ordered the penne de Poulet special and although the pasta was perfectly cooked I felt that it was nothing special. We were in a larger group of 10+ people and must have overwhelmed their kitchen as a bunch of us had ordered the carbonara with some waiting an hour to get their dishes. The staff did not come over to notify of the delay nor did they seem to care about refilling our waters pitchers either.

There were five of us dining, and we ended up ordering seven entrées because everything sounded too good to pass up. Even more telling--one person in our group isn't a pasta fan at all and was completely blown away and finished every last bite. Do not skip dessert. The crème brûlée was perfectly done, and the world-famous tiramisu absolutely lives up to the hype. From start to finish, it was one of those meals that reminds you why dining out can be such a great experience. Highly recommend this place, and we'll absolutely be back.

So after thinking about it for a while we finally visited the restaurant. My wife had the Pollo Pesto and I had the fettuccini Kara Mia. We started the meal with the breaded shrimp as the appetiser, this comes with a little cup of marinara sauce. It is well suited to be shared by two people, 4 pieces each. One suggestion would be to include two cus of sauce, one per person. The food was tasty, and the portions are just the right size. Service was generally good, however i would have liked the server to offer fresh ground pepper as part of his service. All in all a good experience and will be returning. The menu has many dishes that peaked our interest.

Ambiance at this restaurant was lovely, dark interior, accent lightning all around. Onto the food, we tried different pasta/ chicken and I would say some dishes are tastier than others. Saffron poutine is definitely a staple item on their menu, highly recommend! Peppercorn chicken lacked seasoning and was bland. The Cajun pasta wasn't spicy but at least it had plenty of sauce. Service was spot on! They were vigilant and food came out quickly after order. The staff was very nice. Overall, it's worth checking out.

However, once we stepped into the restaurant, we knew that it would be a tad pricey. We were the only ones in the restaurant at the time when we arrived therefore, we were given a round table near the window. Once we were seated, we each received a menu, and settled on our items. The restaurant itself was quite fancy, with the servers wearing formal attire, and the table setting/wall decor boasting an expensive flair. Once we had settled on our meals, we were given a basket of nicely warmed bread, with olive oil mixed with vinegar, along with peppers and olives on the side. The bread was amazing, and we were able to ask for seconds. The basket was never full, as we continuously ate what was placed inside of it. It was a great start to the meal! Once our main dishes arrived, we were surprised to see how much food was included. The chicken cutlet was quite large, with my son unable to finish it. It was also tasty, as I had tried a few bites. My daughter's meatball however had a strange spice which didn't sit well with her. As well, the dish that my mother and I had settled on had various pieces of burnt pasta, and it wasn't too appetizing. Since the prices were so high for each of the dishes, we were surprised that the taste wasn't adequate. Since we had such a positive experience with the complimentary bread, we expected the same for the main meal. However, we weren't too pleased with most of the items we had ordered. I have to give kudos to the service at this restaurant, as we were always doted on, from start to finish. We even saw the manager (or owner) come out to greet all of the guests individually. Although this restaurant was on the higher-end, the food just didn't suffice, and wasn't worth the price that we had paid.
