We’ve grown as Victoria has grown, but at our heart, we have remained true to our roots. Many years of working with local farmers, being a contributing member of our local community, caring for the environment (we are carbon neutral), hosting Italian wine dinners and always making sure that our vision for our food stays true, have brought us to the place we are now.

    Really this low score was a result of Service: it was really mixed, mostly disappointing. Food presentation , honestly, felt one step above a cafeteria. Food itself was Good+. Why does it take 10 minutes for our bottle of wine to reach our table esp. when appetizer arrives first. Half full restaurant and lots of staff. No excuses. Zambri’s used to be a solid option but this was a bad experience. Hopefully a one-off. Hope to return and see the passion and presentation back where it was.

    We had a wonderful experience. We weren’t sure how much to order and what we should order. Asked the staff how the menu options would be. Very helpful and accepted. Service and food was enjoyable.

    We had wonderful dinner recently at Zambri’s. The food was very good, I particularly liked the ricotta frittella. The service was friendly and professional. Thank you for a lovely evening.

    Slow to get seated, waiting more than 5 minutes at the door with nobody greeting us. Then as soon as we were seated, we felt rushed to leave. Menu looked great but both me and my partner felt sick during the meal and were unwell for 2 days following the meal. Great location and the restaurant was beautiful.
    Zambri'sResponded on 3 February 2025
    Dear Hannah, Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear your experience did not meet your expectations. We strive to provide excellent service and will review your comments on seating. Regarding feeling unwell, we take food safety very seriously and prepare each dish with the highest standards. After reviewing your visit, we found that the same pasta dishes were served to 24 guests that evening, including myself, without issue. We understand how unpleasant it is to feel unwell and hope that you both are feeling better. We appreciate your kind words about our location and ambiance and hope to welcome you in the future. Please don’t hesitate to reach out directly if you’d like to discuss your experience further at info@zambris.ca. Sincerely, Emily Davies General Manager

    We were a party of four with multiple, um, food requests and peculiarities. Service was first notch, as was the food, from the focaccia right to the desserts. We ordered three types of pasta, salad and a meatball. All perfectly cooked. The acoustics of the restaurant were the only issue: this is not a place for a quiet romantic dinner. If you like it loud and boisterous, this place is for you.
