Customer Reviews

We had lots of people tell us to give this restaurant a try. It did not disappoint! Both of our meals were outstanding, and our server was amazing. When we come back to Halifax, this is the first place we will come to, for sure!
An Italian restaurant that focuses on seafood. All the appetizers are delicious! The beef and green noodles are sour (not recommended); tuna and lobster noodle are worth trying! Dessert is slightly inferior to seafood. Anyway we really enjoyed our family meal here:D
Had a fantastic lunch here, one of my favorite meals during our visit to Halifax. We made a reservation but were super late, they were very kind about it and had no issues seating us right away. It was almost 2pm on a Saturday in mid-June, so while the restaurant wasn't full it was quite busy for a late afternoon. For starters, we ordered the gamberi in padella (jumbo shrimp) and capesante al sugo (scallops). Both were fantastic, proteins cooked perfectly and the sauces were very tasty. Wish we had some bread to sop everything up! The gnocchi all'aragosta (lobster gnocchi) was excellent as well - big chunks of lobster and soft, pillowy gnocchi. Loved the linguine ai frutti di mare too, great depth of flavor and lots of seafood.
