Only a short drive from Calgary, this was a perfect Sunday getaway for lunch, we were welcomed by a lovely rustic style restaurant nestled between tall evergreens with a large outdoor patio.
Advertised as upscale authentic Italian food, we eagerly ordered a light lunch starting with the Bruschetta along with a 8" Margherita pizza to follow, which was described as Italian Roma tomatoes with basil.
When our order arrived we were shocked to find our Bruschetta was non other than 1 hotdog styled bun cut in half, then quartered and topped off with the bruschetta, the bun was soggy and at $11.00 was beyond disappointing, it was insulting. The 8" pizza each quarter receiving one slice of what was clearly not a Roma tomato, again at $16.00 you just simply expect the ingredients to match the prices.
The staff was pleasant and the setting was lovely, the food is priced sadly for the location, too expensive and ordinary at best. |
