Benvenuto and welcome to Pazzo, a new Italian restaurant in the heart of downtown Halifax. Inspired by our love affair with Italian cuisine, we’ve beautifully transformed two floors of a Barrington Street heritage building into a cozy bar on the lower level and a gorgeous dining area upstairs. With a focus on fresh handmade pasta, meats and cheeses cured in-house, and wines that flow as freely as laughter around a family dinner table, we invite you to join us on a journey of Italy’s rich food culture and la dolce vita!

    I love this restaurant. One of the best in halifax. Service and food is always outstanding. Staff are always very professional and approachable and always willing to go the extra step for you as a customer! The location itself is beautiful with a very warm charm to it. If you haven't been you need to try it. Highly recommend.
