We have been here quite a few times and it is always as good as we expect! We take friends when they visit and they all love it as much as us. Favourites are scallops, spaghetti with lamb ragu, mozzarella and shrimp risotto! The peach bellini is fab. Service is great but make a reservation as it gets very busy. more

Busy, noisy - we loved the atmosphere. The antipasto was the best ever. Great wine list, with most by the glass or 2. We'd certainly go back. more

We stayed at the Dana next door so went here for lunch one day. The food was SOOOOOO good. We are vegetarians so they were accomodating and made dishes without any chicken or pork broth. The first time we went for lunch we had the eggplant parm for an appetizer (YUM but small), and then tortollino (AMAZINGGGGG! best ever), and... more

Very busy and loud place, but tables are well spaced and didn't feel crowded. Nice building in a great location. Food was good and portions are huge... they mean it when they say they are meant to be shared. Service was just okay, a bit impersonal which was understandable considering how busy it was but a smile or two would... more

Someone had a good time designing this restaurant. It has so many details that make it a real dining experience. From the Vespa our front, to the video only old italian movies, to the display kitchen, to the miss-matched chairs and tables, it has more italian cute gimicks than you can shake a biscotti at. The food has to carry... more

My wife and I found the food very good, and enjoyed having each course brought out individually. We had salad, eggplant Parmesan, and shrimp, which was plenty for the two of us, and the bill came to $40. We will come back again! more

The first good restaurant that I have visited in the city. I had the tortellini, which were tasty. The pizza is in authentic Italian style (lots of varieties available). more

Went here with 5 other people and enjoyed sharing a bunch of dishes. It is a "tapas style" Italian type feel. The wines are super affordable and delicious. Loved the loud and fun atmosphere, great crowd. Definitely recommend to others! more

This was our first trip to Quartino. We like the option of "small plates" so we can sample several different dishes. Everything we had was delicious. Only thing that might keep us from returning could be the noise level. Tables are very close to one another and design of restaurant makes for a very noisy atmosphere. Don't go for a... more
