    This is one of Edmonton’s best kept secret. If you are a true Italian food enthusiast, you will fall in love with this place. From the arrival, you walk into a super warm and welcoming ambiance, just like walking into an old Italian mama’s house. We were guided to our table and served by the most amazing hostess you can hope for, and the extraordinary quality and taste infused in every bite was the most amazing culinary experience we had the privilege of enjoying since moving to Edmonton 12 years ago. We will return, again and again.
