La Porto A Casa - Ottawa

I have gone here every year for my anniversary with my boyfriend (this is where we had our first date) and it's always delivered well.

I had dinner here last evening with my husband and some friends (another couple).

Very good Italian restaurant that's not pretentiousHearty meals in pleasant casual atmosphere.__Food was excellent.

An excellent food gem hidden in a small mall! It was our first visit and certainly not the last. The three of us couldn't stop raving over our appetizers..tiger shrimps in sambuca cream sauce just heavenly, escargots w/bonconni cheese sauce and mussels..followed by our entrees veal lemone, veal Marsala and seafood pasta was amazing and very generous portions indeed! We were not rushed and the service was excellent. One little downside it was for a special birthday celebration and the cake was delivered with a lit candle but no singing of happy birthday�.

Best Italian food I've ever had. A little hidden gem in Barrhaven. Waitresses are so friendly and I've never seen staff move so fast. Highly recommend.
