That Lil Pasta Place - Victoria

We come here fairly often and are always thrilled with both the food and service. Its a small family run business off Admirals road and its great to have a wonderful neighbourhood restaurant. The calamari is excellent and the pasta dishes are wonderful. My favourites...More

A friend suggested we meet at this restaurant even though I eat gluten-free. I thought they might have gluten free pasta which they don't, so I quite happily ordered my old standby salad and chicken. It was an excellent salad, carefully made with lots of ingredients, very fresh, with a great citrusy vinaigrette dressing. The owner seems to do it all:seat people, take orders, prepare and serve. I was impressed and thought he did a great job. The decor is attractive and you forget that you are in a strip mall. I would happily go back.

This is a small, well appointed restaurant . A Great evening out The service is excellent. We were seated right away and the waiter advised us of the evening special. we ordered an appetizer to start. We enjoyed the calamari . The chef knows how to use basil. The calamari was served in a light batter very tender . Generous portions we all enjoyed. I would order this for lunch, and will. I had the Gamberi Martini Prawns with linguini with a buttery vermouth sauce. The prawns were large and perfectly cooked. So delicious. This is our new go to place and I know anyone who goes there will add it to their list. Enjoy. Very reasonable prices, a decent wine list. You cannot go wrong here. A must GO

A small place link and you would miss it but well worth visiting. I am staying with friends who had eaten there before and highly recommended it. We phoned and left a message asking for a reservation, were called back pretty quickly however for the night in question it was not to be however.......We dropped by this lunchtime early aiming to east some calamari and to also take an order back home with us, the chef said he only had enough prepared fish at the time to do a single super sized portion so we opted to take that to go.Wow was it delicious, care had been taken to pack the calamari so the food stayed hot and the coating on the calamari remained crispy. The dish was tasty and flavoursome and the accompanying tomato and garlic dipping sauce was delicious.So based upon my friends eating in experience and our great take out I would recommend this small eatery.

Didn't have a reservation, but were told how much time we had to eat - 1 1/2 hours - no problem. Excellent service. A very welcoming atmosphere. Great food! A small restaurant, so off hours is the best time to go.
