Rugantino

Customer service is absolutely the worst. My husband emailed 2 weeks before to get a reservation for ourselves and a couple we were taking out for dinner. No one responded so we had to call. Someone finally called back to confirm. We show up at the restaurant with our friends and we were10 minutes late as we took an Uber. When we arrived, they had already given our table away. How embarrassing, we were treating our friends to dinner!! Meanwhile there were 2 empty tables. I understand if we were half hour late, but 10 minutes!!!! Thank goodness La Cantina could accommodate us! My favourite Italian restaurant anyways.

Really enjoyed this small, rustic and warm restaurant. Relaxed atmosphere, casua Enjoyed the food, simple, fresh ingredients. Loved the bruschetta, the warm bread and drizzled oliveiyt oil + balsamic was lovely and balanced. Pasta was plentiful, creamy and hearty. The cream / egg carbonara sauce was delicious - not heavy where we couldn't finish the plate. Overall, decent portions and good prices. Decent and quick service. The small space made the ambient a little loud (voice and music).

Had an excellent dinner here on a Friday night. Our server was Chloe and she was fantastic. The pizza and pasta dishes did not disappoint. We had the rapini pizza to start with cocktails and shared the carbonara and gnocchi bolognese pasta dishes. Finished it off with their home made tiramisu. Wonderful little spot which we will visit again. Would also be great takeout as the dishes would travel well.

We went after trying to book a reservation for date night. We had some trouble booking it, including not getting emails or calls back. Figured this was a fluke though and enjoyed our meal. The food was REALLY REALLY GOOD, server was great, and it was a cute little place! We wanted to go back again because it was so good, this time for takeout. We tried calling to place an order MULTIPLE times over several hours and we couldn't get a hold of anyone. According to their hours they were open and we couldn't find anything online to say otherwise. We gave up and went elsewhere and were super disappointed. I don't know if we'll return, sadly, as the food was super good but the fact that we couldn't get a hold of the business multiple times on different dates really put us off :(

Rugantino's chef and owner Marco Pecora, raises the culinary to high fine art all the while serving up large portions. He serves gourmet quality food for not only reasonable prices, but with large spreads, as mentioned. Furthermore the ambience is eclectically tasteful and unpretentious. Marco is to the culinary what picasso was to painting. You would have to be an idiot not to recognize Marco's genius, which you Must taste!

Had a variety of the menus items and off menu items, and all excellent. No complaints except wish they had more seating and open more often during the day so can get in more often when leave it to last minute. Try to plan ahead. Owner and staff are excellent and make you feel welcome and sincerely want you to enjoy your dining experience. Looking forward to our next visit!!
