Came here for lunch with some ex-work colleagues. One of them is a member (you don't have to be a member to eat here).Service was really good and the food was delicious. Portion sizes were very generous and prices were more than reasonable. We started with a couple of Caprese salads and I had one of the lunch favourites - "Frank" which was a baked sausage and gnocchi cheese.Parking was good both in the parking and on the street.Will have to come several more times to get through all the delicious items on the menu!
A whole bunch of us (>12) went there for dinner on a Wednesday evening and we were pleasantly surprised. Food quality was good and price was very reasonable.We also like the fact that instead of us all sitting in a big long table, we were able to sit at separate tables, which made it easy to visit and talk to others! As opposed to just the people that sit next to you!
I recently visited La Cantina in Calgary, drawn in by the buzz of locals praising its vibrant menu and cozy atmosphere…From the moment I stepped in, the ambiance promised an experience that goes beyond the plate…I started my meal with a lineup of appetizers that were nothing short of scrumptious…Each bite was a perfect teaser, so flavorful and enticing that I found myself tempted to forgo the rest of the menu and just indulge in more starters…But I stayed focused and ordered my all-time favorite: the Chicken Parmesan…The Chicken Parmesan was cooked to perfection, the chicken itself was juicy and tender, while the blend of cheese and sauce struck an ideal balance, creating a dish that was rich without being overpowering…Alongside it, the Caesar Salad was a standout with its crisp, fresh let
A fantastic dinner to celebrate a family birthday! Many items from the menu were ordered this evening (I cannot even attempt to remember them all) which brought my wife and I back to Italy from our travels! The food tasted authentic, the place has a good atmosphere for a small restaurant, and the service was good.All of us (6 adults 2 kids) left happy with our meals.Photos attached- highly recommend.*Not accesable, 10 stairs down from street level
The food is always great. The service is always amazing. We always get family style menus. And the kids have a blast letting loose playing on the bocce ball court. Very family friendly!
