    Espresso Martini

    Great service even though the place was PACKED, we sat at the bar and the staff were amazing to chat with and super kind! The pizza was perfect and my drink was amazing.

    Spaghetti and meatballs, marscapone gnocchi dish and Riesling!

    Wonderful spot with outdoor, dog friendly seating. Great pastas! Pizza oven gave a wonderful vibe to the experience! Great service.

    Had a great family meal at the Twisted Pig lastnight. We celebrated a birthday for my young niece. The wait staff were super nice and very accommodating. The food was delicious. Everyone pigged out on the free bread and dip. We started with mussels in wine. The mussels were nice and big and the sauce was awesome. Our party ordered a bunch of stuff. Pizza done in a wood fired oven. And pasta vodka that was excellent. Oh did I mention they have Fairweather Beer? Oh ya! The staff even sang Happy Birthday when they brought my niece a chocolate tort. Would highly recommend a visit.

    Ventured here to get away from the amusement park midway of Niagara Falls to eat real food. We started with the Honey Garlic Brussels and they were magnificent. I'll be copy-catting that maple dijon aioli and working it into our home kitchen rotation. I had the Spaghetti and Meatballs and Thing 2 (the vegetarian) tried the LEMON Basil Risotto- emphasis on the Lemon. Service was good, the complimentary bread basket was soft and the Big Head Big Read was smooth. Low ceilings and dim yellow lighting to round off the Italian ambiance. Pictures of food get boring- check out the floor instead. *chefs kiss*

    This Italian restaurant is part of a chain. This St. Catharines' location is the newest of 6…read morelocations, and it soft-opened on 2022-03-03. It is in a small plaza. It is a large restaurant with about 20-foot high ceilings. The decor is an industrial look. There is a small area that is a bar seating area, next to the bar. We ordered the following: 1. Lamb Ragu Papperdalle ($26). 2. Seafood Linguine ($28). 3. House Made Tiramisu ($10). The papperdalle pasta and linguine pasta were perfectly al dente. The slow-braided lamb shoulder ragu was very tasty and satisfying. The Seafood Linguine came with 2 shrimp, 2 bay scallops, 2 calamari rings, and 8 mussels. It came with sugo di pomodoro (Italian tomato sauce). The Tiramisu is made in-house and comes out in a glass jar. It was tasty. They didn't use the traditional lady figure and didn't have any alcohol in it. The service was good. We were there the day before Canadian Thanksgiving, which turns out to be their slowest day, so the service was attentive. I assume it is the same on a busy day. There is free WiFi. The restaurant is wheelchair accessible. There are separate male/female washrooms, and they are wheelchair accessible. There is free parking in the mall's parking lot. There are highchairs and booster seats for little children. Review 2023-334

    Not knowing this was a chain I was surprised how good this place is. I usually adjust my…read moreexpectations for chain restaurants because of the way they cook based on a specific formula. The pasta tasted freshly made. Cooked perfectly. The sauce not too salty but rich and creamy. I had the gnocchi but forgot to take a pic. The portions are good but nothing overwhelming. The pizza has a good taste but could be cooked a little longer to add a better crust but I think that's just my preference. The service was extremely attentive and was warm and inviting.

We were there for Sun dinner as a big group of 16 as a gathering of high school classmates. We were seated at one long table. Our waitress handled orders well except for my unlimited refill pop, I asked her 3 times for a refill and she kept forgetting. I never got the refill. The food tasted good and were plated well. There was a large variety of food options. The only bad dish was the Vegan Pizza which looked horrible! They were kind enough to listen to the customer and remake it to her specifications. Entree prices ranged $14 to $23 to $29. The restaurant is well-decorated . They seem to like European family motorcycles. The manager was very friendly, helpful, and cooperative.

The food was good, and appropriately priced, the service was very friendly and accommodating (at some space in time a manager, or potentially the owner stopped by), the interior design is very interesting, and as much as this place is out of the way / off the beaten path, I know I will probably make an effort to return.

I had the lasagna, which was hearty, cheesy, and delicious. My wife ordered the Lemon-Asparagus Salmon, and it was amazing -- perfectly cooked salmon that was tender and flaky, paired with a rich, creamy lemon-butter sauce. The veggies were cooked al dente, with the asparagus and charred tomatoes adding a ton of flavour, and the rice was beautifully cooked and seasoned. Even the side salads came out with great presentation and fresh flavour. Highly recommend this spot for anyone who loves Italian/Mediterranean food -- one of St. Catharines' gems!

We always love to order the saganaki but this time it was rock solid cold even after the fire/flames. So that was really disappointing. I ordered the Shrimp Amore, the shrimps tastes really good, seasoned well, good portion, and most importantly they came out hot lol but the mash potatoes and the veggies were again really cold... unfortunately. I've been here so many times and now I'm thinking it's time to go else where because I've definitely had better food. I just really enjoy the atmosphere but I don't think the price is worth the quality of the food you get.
