Editorial Review
Nestled - as the name suggests - in the courtyard of the oft-filmed Manhattan Apartments (location of the Look Who's Talking movies), the flower-edged patio shines in good weather, as weary Robson shoppers pause to fortify themselves with wine and classic-yet-casual Italian fare. Menu standouts include all the fresh, ocean-wise fish and seafood dishes (especially the salad) and and delicious pastas, including fresh lobster-stuffed ravioli with tarragon cream sauce. Strong wine list and house-made desserts, and gluten-free versions and appetizer sizes of almost all pasta dishes available on request.
