    Our absolute go to for authentic Italian cuisine., favourite place for date night ! We feel comfortable and known by the wonderful staff. Restaurant makes every effort to make a yummy vegetarian meal for me off the menu/specials . I will say it again Sue I would love to see an eggplant Parmesan on the menu or as a special :)

    A couple girlfriends and I got out for some much needed time together. Everything was fantastic! The food was SO delicious (Il Buco was able to manage our many allergies and dietary restrictions at the table), the service was awesome (friendly and just the right speed with a little sprinkle of humour) and the atmosphere was lovely. Thank you for a great evening out. We will absolutely be back!

    We absolutely love it there! The Enricho’s garlic bread app is out of this world. We’re already planning our next visit.
