We like Tratt Tue, $16 pasta. It used to be half price Tuesday before.My spaghetti meatballs with tomato basil sauce was excellent. Caesar salad was great too. Dessert was Tiramisu, very good too. We will be back for the Tratt Tuesday.?
Food was delicious as always, Short Rib Pappardelle is the best!!! Our server Steve was amazing!! Highly recommend this restaurant.
Was looking forward to coming here for a celebratory lunch after a long time away. Just our luck there was a large noisy birthday party in progress. Food was ok, not as good as I remembered, though. Suspect it might be due to the staffing issues brought about by Covid. I think we'll give them the benefit of the doubt, and expect an improvement the next time we drop by.
My friend decided to take me out for my Birthday, as this was my first trip to Vancouver/Burnaby! We came across this local restaurant through Google.Rebekah, our waitress, and the two men that helped her were amazing and so friendly! We had the spaghetti and meatballs and Gelato for dessert! I have never had such good Italian food or service before! 10/10 would recommend to anyone looking for a restaurant that has an entire staff of helpful and charismatic people, with insanely tasty food to boot! P.s. They even got us seated right away, on an insanely busy night! ? ? ? ? ?
I visited Saturday night. Gamberini shrimp looks like cooked long time ago. Overcooked pasta noodles . And pizza dough too much semolina . Calamari was under seasoning.
Four of us for dinner, appetizer took an hour to get to our table - there were only two tables in the upper section where they sat us. We knew we were going to be in trouble when they started setting up the table next to us for 18 - 20 people. Unbelievably noisy starting from staff dragging chairs and tables to when the party arrived, and we couldn't hear a thing we were saying to each other. When we finished, we asked the manager over and explained that it was a very poor experience sitting us beside the big group, he said "we didn't know they were coming and if you had told me you were unhappy, I could have done something, but now it's too late and there's nothing that I can do". Wrong answer. Manager should never blame the customer - or make excuses. When we told him "what you're saying is making us feel worse", he shrugged and said "you didn't say anything, so there's nothing that can be done". An apology would have sufficed. Incredibly unprofessional and unsatisfying experience.
Reservations made online, easy and simple. Parking underground (for pay) very convenient. Arrived towards the end of happy hour so enjoyed some appies, calamari and bruschetta both delicious along with some of the house wine and cocktails. We both had pasta dishes, spaghetti and meatballs and spaghetti and shrimp. Again, both were very good and very filling. Finished it off with a complimentary Tiramisu and coffees. Our server was attentive, respectful and very genial, stopping several times to take our picture. Overall a very nice evening dinner.
Ordered the brussell sprouts, truffle cream pasta, calamari, and caesar salad. Great service, great price on Pasta Tuesdays, quick to be seated.
I recommend you make dinner reservations especially if it’s close to the weekend. We missed the happy hour which is from 2 – 5 pm or from 9 pm til closing. They have a good selection on the menu. The best value was the 3 type of platter dishes – 1) Antipasto – enough for 2 to 3 people 2) Pasta platter – looked delish but no one wanted to share with me 3) Carne platter. I saw other tables ordering the antipasto platter so we did the same. Our other diner had the braised lamb with risotto. The meat was cooked to perfection (the meat fell off the bone) as promised by our server. Another diner had a popular spaghetti and meatballs in truffle cream. There was something about the meatballs that wasn’t wowing.Service was great especially asking the server for recommendations. If you can’t choose, ask your server. The challenge is parking. There is no free parking. They’re located on the busy intersection on the northeast corner of Willingdon and Kingsway. Not far from Metrotown Mall.
My uncle came here for his birthday and the food was very expensive but we were celebrating his birthday! Calamari was expensive and yummy compared to local cuisine. It was hard to hear him talk because of the echoing music.
