    Great atmosphere. We came on a Saturday night. There was a guitarist playing beautifully. Not too busy. The food was great! I had the fettuccine Alfredo with mushrooms and tomatoes added. My friend had the spinach fettuccini LaViena. Her portion was a bit small but still delicious. I recommend.

    This was the worst Italian food I ever had. This is NOT authentic Italian. It is prison kitchen mush. The server was awful too.

    Quite expensive for what you get, better alternatives close by, for similar prices- but very family friendly with attentive staff.

    Food was good, but they need to fix their heating system. It would swap from warm to very cold. Asked multiple times to turn up the heat

    My friend and I wanted to try something new, so we decided to meet at Carino, which is a Japanese…read moreItalian fusion restaurant in a super nice district with lots of expensive restaurants near downtown. We started with the agedashi mozzarella, which is this fried mozzarella ball with a japanese plum puree and soy dashi glaze. This is not what I thought it'd taste like lol. It was a bit salty and sweet, and the fried mozzarella was done really nicely. Even after it cooled down, it didn't harden the way most fried mozzarella does! We also tried the tagliatelle with Italian sausage rose sauce. All of their pastas are cooked in a Japanese seafood broth (dashi), so it infuses like japanese flavors despite the Italian forward ingredients. This was SO delicious - the cream tomato sauce, mushroom, and bacon merged with the dashi flavors that gave it such a nice umami and an additional layer to the usual Italian pasta. The gyogzana was the definition of fusion. This is like spaghetti with wagyu meat sauce, but replace the spaghetti with gyoza. This comes out bubbling hot with melty cheese - yum!!! We finished with the dessert tasting, which includes a Japanese black sesame tiramisu with azuki bean paste, yuzu gelee, and chocolate chiffon cake. The yuzu gelee was a nice tart finish to the meal with jelly textures, while the black sesame tiramisu tasted more like a creme brulee. Our server was very friendly and let us take our time with the meal! They don't have that many tables, so make a resy if you can!

Main dishes range from $16.75 to $29.50. - Spicy tomato tonkotsu tsukemen ($18.95) - generous 1.5 noodle serving. Good bite, tasty broth - Spicy "wagyu bolognese" miso ($23.25) - touch of heat. Broth was rich, leaning on the heavier side - Duck "nanban" soup ($28.50) - gnocchi were okay. Duck leg was excellent. Broth was light, citrusy and the yuzu kosho added a nice kick

This resto screamed authentic from the wood burning over in an open concept kitchen where you can even sit by the bar and observe the chefs cool up pizza's and food in front of you, it's quite an experience ! We sat down ordered 2 bottles of Prosecco for our table of 4. Unfortunately, they didn't have orange juice .. in order to make a mimosa's quite a bummer. Service: Quick and easy, waitress was very nice to us .. perhaps I wished she took more time explaining their menu.. Food: Charging money because you have a gluten allergy is absolutely BONKERS !!!! The bread itself came automatically for our table already ready.. however one of my friends has celiac and they charged an extra 15$? For Gluten free crackers that didn't taste that good!! The Bistecca was the highlight of the night A huge 25 oz tripple A (small size) bone in ribsteak was big enough to feed all 4 of us , cale with delicious shiitake mushrooms (funghi) Absolutely delicious loved it!! The burrata was alright, I've had better.. wish it was dressed in a different dressing. The salad was ok.. nothing really special. The eggplant was a lil undercooked... very cold and harder on the bite.. shouldn't be this hard to eat an eggplant lol Overall, the service could be better, the food was ok could be way better .. however steak was absolutely fantastic definitely the game changer.. maybe I'll be back again when it is less busy and that day was just a one off .. Cheers

    The food was outstanding. Had a nice 2019 Chianti that was a perfect pairing for the entire meal…read more The Caprese with tomatoes and fresh mozzarella starter was so delicious. The special pasta with tiger prawns was light and cooked perfectly. We shared the roasted lamb as a main dish. We also had the eggplant as our veggie side which was amazing with soft, smooth and sublime seasoning. Ended the meal with tiramisu and carrot cake. Our server Fabio was fabulous both attentive and friendly. Ambiance was very clean and comfortable with large group high top tables and large bar around the chef's open kitchen. I loved this first experience at Mercato Mission and look forward to a future visit when we return to Calgary.

So we were in a pasta mood and ordered the lasagna and the cannelloni. Sad news for the cannelloni: we felt they were flavorful, but too dry inside. Cannot recommend. The lasagna was very tasty, but for my liking it had very little cheese. We did eat all the portion though ;) it was flavorful. Italian cuisine varies from region to region, we were expecting a plate covered in bechamel for the cannelloni and there was none. So it did not meet expectations... but the pasta was good, home made, thin, and the sauces were flavorful... so a solid 3 stars for good quality. I do have to say that our waiter approached us to ask if all was to our liking, and only at the end did I disclose our disappointment... I didn't know what they could do to make it better...and we were so hungry we had already eaten half anyways... well in this they excelled as they comped our cannelloni and gave us a very good tiramisu to top it off! Definitely 5 star customer service! This is a local family owned restaurant that prides itself in having happy customers, and we are just passing by... nonetheless they really tried, and succeeded, in having us leave with a happy face. And that gives them a solid 4 star overall! Enjoy.

Really satisfying. French onion soup was the reason we returned (we don't live in Calgary). As good as I remember - broth is perfect, good amount of bread in the bowl, toasted cheese on top. Highly recommend. Caesar salad was meh. Lettuce/dressing tasted really watery. Skip it if you have high caesar salad expectations. **Edit to add pictures.
