The food is great and it?s not as expensive. Plus the servings are huge and makes you remember how restaurantsin Vancouver used to have this size of portions 5 years ago. Not to mention that the bar is manned by Santana who is super nice,friendly accommodating.

Carbonara was more like a white sauce pasta and the spaghetti and meatball surprisingly had a kick to it. Overall only come if you're not fussy about yourpasta and don't want to spend much.

The food was really delicious, we had ordered a cheese ravioli one of my favourite, and the secondone was a build your own, in which I added penne, rose sauce, olives, artichokes, bell peppers, corn, mozeralla, parmessan,basil and other herbs and a side of garlic bread. The taste was really good, the portion size was good, but the garlic bread wasjust 2 slices as I had expected 4 for the price of 2.49. Yet not disappointed, and will surely be visiting again when I'm inthat vicinity.

Looking at the other reviews, it might've just been an off day for the chefs since the chicken breast, mushroom, and my pesto pasta was close to flavorless. We had to add a copious amount of salt; sincethe pastas were so bland, I have to give two stars. Would love to be proven wrong and give you guys more stars since theservice provided by the staff was great. Cashier was super polite and washroom/store was very clean.

Service was great, Johnny/Charlie was great and helped out a lot for making the meal even better! Would try otheroptions and avoid the chicken ????
