“ Absolutely amazing! Everything was superb, starting with the staff, and every step of the dining experience through to the dessert. The wine selection is very impressive (although they do not carry any local wines, Italian only), and I got to experience the testa of the best Italian ehite wine I ever came across in my travels. The food was delicious, and the owner checking in every once in a while gave it a very personal touch. ”
“ We had a large party for a birthday celebration. By far the best most authentic Italian restaurant I have ever experienced in Canada.! Having grown up in Italy, their food, atmosphere and service is on another level. It is such a delight to be greeted by the owner who shares a passion and love for food and hospitality. His wife prepares all the meals herself. In true Italian fashion the meal does take three hours. The portion sizes are large keep that in mind when ordering appetizers. We had the buffalo mozzarella which was flown in from Italy that day. We also had the lobster pasta which comes with half a lobster, organic tomatoes and spices done to exquisite perfection. Their squid ink pasta is a unique delight . The veal is tender and comes with a unique sauce . The staff is extremely knowledgable in the ingredient list and how to provide the best customer service. Will definitely be back. ”
“ Roma Nord is an amazing experience, from the ambience to their authentic italian food! The servers are extremely friendly and responsive, as well as the owner who is always around and welcomes you into the restaurant! I would highly recommend any of their pastas. My personal favourite is their mushroom, truffle ravioli. Seriously the best pasta I’ve ever had! I would recommend booking a reservation in advance, as they book up weeks in advance. ”
