    Our server was excellent & knowledable about the menu & wine selection which I really appreciate. The appetizer of scampi was absolutely delicious. My husband got the steak special & he enjoyed it but it did come out a bit cold. I got the carbonara & it was definately not an authentic carbonara & tasted similar to the quality of something from East Side Mario's. We got creme brule & tiramisu for dessert & both were delicious! Overall the experience was good & we will eat here again.

    We had an awesome time. Everything was great, as usual. From the moment we walked in our table was waiting for us and we were made to feel like royalty. Our Server was the best and he never missed a thing. I am always excited to go to Italian by Night.

    IBN is by far my favorite restaurant in SJ however the ambience has significantly decreased in my opinion since they removed the barriers. It was hard to talk and be heard with all the noise.

    We’ve been making this restaurant our date night spot every week for the past 8 years, and it never disappoints. Jessie and Rob at the bar always greet us with warmth and a smile, making every visit feel like a special occasion. Dorothy goes above and beyond to make us feel like family, remembering our preferences and adding that personal touch that keeps us coming back. The food is consistently amazing, and the atmosphere is perfect for a relaxed, memorable night out. Every detail is taken care of, and we always leave looking forward to the next week. Truly a gem in the city!

    A wonderful nite with my office staff. Beautiful restaurant with great ambience, & attentive , friendly wait , bussing ,and host staff. Best fresh salmon/ shrimp / veggies dish anywhere in the Maritimes. My staff loved their chicken parm/ Alfredo sauce as usual. Very good wine & drink offerings . Desserts such as the chocolate tort are fantastic! The white linen tablecloths / napkins & silverware such a nice touch.
