We can't wait to NEVER go back!

It was an overall awful experience. Started off with drinks, calamari, and bread. I can't believe my cosmopolitan martini costed $10+ when it tasted like nail polish. The calamari was VERY salty, almost like they are trying to cover the lack of good taste. The bread arrived cold and tasteless, kind of like cardboard. The olive oil was just oil; the vinegar was, I don't even want to go there. I had Fettucine Alla Riveira, which raised the bar for a new type of disgusting. How disappointing when I thought this was an "authentic italian" restaurant! The house special, Dimmi Pizza was more salty than salt itself, it also tasted like cardboard. The only thing that was acceptable was the water, which took me numerous times to order. It could be due to the volume of people that day, but the waiters seemed to chat away with their co-workers instead of serving the paying customers. My drink sat at the bar for at least 5 minutes before it was brought over, warm. The check was $200+ for 4 people, I don't think I need to comment on that. I would not recommend this place to anyone. It's much easier to get better tasting food for that price anywhere else. I regret going there, I think I might have been better off going to Dominion and purchase some frozen dinner. Oh, to get to the washroom on the second floor you have to walk up a narrow staircase, so drunk people or people taking care of the woozy, throwing up outside would be a quicker, safer, and much more convenient choice! You can disagree and find out yourself, I sincerely hope you manage to have a good time but I sure didn't!
