A casual, come-as-you-are attitude prevails at this Italian restaurant, where families jostle with young couples and old-timers for a favourite table or spot at the bar. Servers praise the fettuccine alfredo and homemade tiramisù, but there’s plenty of pizza, pastas and sandwiches to choose from. Near the entrance, a colourful painted mural lends a folksy vibe. In sunny weather, the cozy back patio lures patrons with its brightly checkered tablecloths, painted flowers and creeping vines. Mains $7.50–$22.50.
