    First of all, the booking service is great, with the possibility to give a reason and ask a service with the table. The service was very good, with a kind and patient waiter who gave us advice on the menu, the food, and the wine. He took the time to explain to us the origin of the BC wine. The food and wine were outstanding, the price was understandably high. The music was low and well chosen, which is good for a gentle and relaxant atmosphere. It was our best experience on a very good and fancy restaurant. We'd like to thank all the team for this lovely evening which will leave a good memory for a long time !

    My family and I had a good experience at this restaurant. Great service, good food, and a lovely wine list. The bread is yummy but they need to add more in their bread basket with more dipping oil. Beware- prices are on the higher side. Had to pay for the bread basket and portions are not large. Yet, we would go back next time we are in town!

    Everything was fantastic. The food was delicious, the different courses came to the table at perfect intervals and the quantity was perfect. Our server was energetic, helpful and made a great suggestion for an alternate wine choice. The ambience was festive and we sat in the former porch area of the Victorian house where we could enjoy the view of the street and also the cozy fireplace through the stained glass windows. We will be back!

    Lovely restaurant divided into to smaller rooms. White linen tablecloth and napkins. Lovely server, the best service. Special salad of Burrata and tomatoes and some greens with balsamic reduction - absolutely perfect. My entree of pasta with lamb ragu was tasty but a very large portion. The wines by the glass were very good - lots of choice. A very special evening for our friend’s birthday.

    This is quite an expensive restaurant, not at all in my usual price range. My wife and I were a bit apprehensive that we would feel out of place. But we were put at ease immediately with a warm welcome and the friendliness of the staff was constant throughout. The food was some of the best Italian food we have ever eaten. We were especially impressed by specials that were not on the menu. The server was very helpful with recommendations and also in warning us that the primi dishes were larger than usual for Italian restaurants. As a result, we skipped the antipasti and shared a primi plate, followed by separate secondi dishes. This was a strategy that worked perfectly for food quantity. We will happily return to this restaurant.

    Nice retrofitted heritage house in the fancy area of town. It was very busy when we were there (6:15pm on a Friday) The service staff were attentive and nice. We both ordered the specials. I had the halibut with prawns and veggies. She had the wagu beef ravioli. Both were smaller than expected, especially considering the price. Both seem to have been sitting under the heat lamp for too long before being served, which I guess makes sense seeing as they were busy. We looked at the dessert menu and lots of things looked fine but we were underwhelmed by the mains and decided to find dessert elsewhere. The 2 mains, with no appetizers, 1 glass of wine, and one coffee, cost about $150 after the 15% tip. Afterwards we went to Brekka for dessert, which were $6.50 each vs $14 each and likely about the same.

    Great atmosphere and charm. Upscale but not over the top. Best Caesar salad ever - ask for anchovies! Three tiny nits. Too much cinnamon in the lamb shank. Wrong glasses used for red wine. Nicer tables were available, with view that would have been appreciated. Still l, great for business or date night. Will return!!

    It was alright but definitely not worth the hype considering it is listed on Canada’s top 100. I have had better pasta in Italian restaurants at less price. Very few vegetarian/vegan options and would have preferred to see mocktails on the menu. Tiramisu was delicious.

    The food was sublime, and our server, Brad, took excellent care of us. In fact, there was a party of 8 beside us that was quite loud, so loud we had to raise our voices considerably to hear one another. We asked if there was a quieter spot to move to and there was not, which was understandable. But, without any prompting, they gave us a generous discount as our experience was clearly less than optimal. This kind of customer service is rare and wonderful. So we will most definitely be back!

    My waitress was amazing. The wine was really good. Liked the burrada I ordered. The pasta was just okay. It’s not nice to say that but I have some Italian roots so I am a bit demanding when it’s about pasta. The short rib didn’t make a lot of sense for me on the pasta filling and it was a bit hard to taste the pasta itself with so much ‘meat information’ - also didn’t think the white sauce was a great choice for this pairing. Might give Lupo another try some time.

    Cozy restaurant in an older renovated home. Friendly greeting and great service for our entire meal. Wine list is impressive, but with only a few good choices under $100 per bottle. Shared "foie gras" appetizer was delicious. Special ravioli plate was tasty, but a little sloppy presentation with one ravioli burst out of its seams before service... Halibut was cooked to perfection but portion was very small while the vegetables were under-cooked.

    I would have liked to find dishes a little less sophisticated, some flavors are lost a bit with so many creations, perhaps more authentic Italian recipes with the same good raw ingredients. Without a doubt it is a great place, with very good cuisine and services. It is a must to visit.
