   It was our first time at Castello Ristorante Antico. We made reservations for our parents anniversary and from the minute we walked in our waiter greeted us with a smile and seated us offering us flat or sparkling water. We ordered Caesar salad, cocktail shrimp and garlic bread for appetizers. The presentation and service given by our waiter Yuri was amazing. For our mains we had both pasta and pizza, the food was delicious. My parents had a wonderful time and would like to thank the kitchen and our waiter Yuri

   The service was good Except the weather smelled bad from eating Garlic. The starters were good The main dishes were not tasty We ordered a salad with salmon And we had to return the fish because it tasted fishy The dessert were not tasty we ate tiramisu and it was not fresh We will definitely not return to eat at this restaurant again. The prices are expensive for no reason because the food was not really tasty and fresh.

   I waited 30 minutes to be seated even though I had a reservation. We told the host twice. The host was picking favourites. On top of that and hour wait on our food we ended up leaving without eating anything other than salad which took 30 mins to come out. Horrible experience will never go back. The server was horrible too. Even the drinks took 20 mins to come out. Very upset as this was a valentines date dinner. Do better. I was also charged for the meal I did not even eat.

   Unacceptable Service. Should not take 90 minutes to get food out. They should not book so many tables if they don’t have the staff. Slow kitchen. Slow servers. Slow bar. Food is good but will not go again.

   Despite stating food allergies, they brought out food that we could not eat. They also delivered raw/uncooked salmon to our table, we had to ask for them to bring us a cooked piece.

   We visited Castello on Saturday Feb 11 for an early Valentine’s Dinner. The entire experience WAS made beautiful and pleasant by our excellent server Natalia. We had the pleasure to sit in her area upstairs. She made us feel so special. We had the calamari which was great. Followed by the Ossobuco and fettuccine and a nice thin pizza. Definitely recommend and would go back.

   I booked because it was close to where we were and pleasantly surprised by how good the food was - very busy so service a bit slow but okay. Focaccia the best we’ve had - same with mussels and pizza. Tartuffo was great too. Highly recommend it.

    We enjoyed the ambience and the service very much. The reason for the average rating was the quality of the food which was below average. The focaccia bread was very dry and doughy and the gnocchi was chewy and doughy as well. Finally the crispy calamari was very chewy.

    The service started off excellent, but as the evening progressed, it was slower and slower. It took forever for us to get our dinner (we were seated at 8 pm and our dinner didn’t arrive until 9:45!) - One person at our table had to wait 15 additional minutes for his meal! Food was tasty but lukewarm. Nice ambiance though

    Our server Ava was amazing actually all the servers were super nice and attentive. The main course was good the only things I would like to point out is the garlic bread which was just 4 pieces of bread with a little mozzarella sprinkled on top which was very under whelming. And lastly we were allowed to take the rest of the bottle of wine home. If we were told before hand that they don’t allow wine to be taken home we would have ordered by the glass. So the only choice we had was to either leave the half bottle of wine or drink and drive. We chose to be responsible and leave the rest of the $80 bottle of wine.

    The food was good, but the meatballs were a bit raw. They quickly brought us a new plate. 5 of us got our food quickly but 1 took a very long time. Also, they serve imported Italian water which tastes very good but you have to pay for the water.

    While the food was great, it took over an hour to be seated after we had a reservation for 8pm for 14 people. They double booked the restaurant and were very scattered. They did compensate with champagne and antipasto which was nice but it was very frustrating to have to wait for so long. The kitchen was also backed up and we didn’t get our food until 10:30pm. Our server was fantastic. He was a running around like a mad man! Overall experience was ok. Will probably go back when it’s not the holiday season to see if the service improves.

    Our reservation was changed because they were overbooked we had to ask to get seated. We had to wait over half hour for a server to take our order. We had to ask for the server. Bread came without butter. Calamari only had one piece of lemon for two people. We asked for another piece and we never got it. They were overbooked with parties. Food was good.

    The food took 2 hours to come out and when they served it, it was cold, plate was microwaved… the management was very unprofessional, specifically the store manager. There was only one table being properly served and it turned out they were friends with the manager. Every other table was waiting for their food like our table. If you want to enjoy your evening, do yourself a favour and do not come here.

    Ordered steak meal and only got small basket of fries served with it. Menu did state steak and fries. However, for the price of the meal we got no other vegetables. Very disappointing as we have recommended this restaurant to many friends. Also, the price of a small scoop of lemon sorbet was $11.00. I understand its a restaurant but the price was over and above. Will not return

    Nice ambience, the food was average. Don’t order the cheese platter, not very well done. The service was terrible. Waitress not very good and overcharged us for some items; I only noticed when I got home. Way too expensive for the quality and quantity that you get. Definitely will not bring anymore of my clients back there. Overall: Disappointing. Was expecting better based on positive reviews I have read. I dine out often with clients, so maybe I have a better appreciation for quality food and service than the average person. My 2 star rating is a generous one.

    The waiter was terrible. They didn't listen to anything we said. Coffee was instant. Our order wrong. I switched noodles from penne to another noodle and he screwed up the whole dish—just a horrible experience. However, the other time I went, the waiter was fantastic, and everything was excellent. Food was good. Just a bad waiter.

    We've eaten here twice for lunch and the food is outstanding! The service this time was a bit "stunned" - we had to repeat our order several times, and the server brought each drink to our table individually. It was rather odd. We also did not get bread for the table at any point in the meal - again, rather odd. Regarding drinks, their mixed drinks/cocktails are a reasonable size. Their soft drinks are ridiculously small, full of ice, and there are no free refills, which seems bizarrely stingy at a nice restaurant like this. The food portions are quite reasonable and delicious. We would return, but not bother to order any soft drinks.
