Restaurant Details

An Italian inspired dining experience reminiscent of the old-world. Fresh pasta, thin crust pizza, and traditional Italian fare made with love from our kitchen team using locally sourced Ingredients. Slow roasted ossobuco short ribs, rich country-style bolognaise, homemade risottos, creamy polenta and tiramisu, just to mention a few. Oh, Mama Mia! Enjoy our famous linguini carbonara, while listening to a Sinatra and sipping a glass of wine from Bardolino or a negroni in our candle-lit dining room.

We Use Only Locally Sourced, Sustainable Ingredients with a Focus on Canadian Producers & Suppliers. Just a Quick List: Poultry Specialists (Tillsonburg), Hensall Co-Op, Thomas Brother’s Farm Market, & Kohn Meat Market, just to name a few!
