Reviews of N'ata Cosa Ristorante + Mobile + Catering (Catering)

Karen

Just had and incredible dinner with my husband and our son. Pizza as an appetizer was incredible...full of flavour. Lasagna, gnocchi, and steak were incredible. Our glass was never empty. Chris is an excellent chef..attention to detail and made exactly to order. Great service from Catharine. Thank you for an amazing evening.

This charming Italian Ristorante is what downtown St.catharines needs. A Hot spot just across from the Art Center. And walks down to the Meridian Center before heading to the ice dogs game. Great home made pasta dishes that is sure to please any craving and their wood oven pizzas is a must for a shared appetizer or meal. The chef has specials throughout the week as he brings in seasonal ingredients. Food here is bursting with flavour and everything here is cooked in house. Service and the wait staff are at its best here. The Chef comes out to ask how our meal is every time I visit. Prices are reasonable and you will leave here satisfied. Special treat is when they have their brunch service on Sundays. Great variety of choices on the menu and cooked to perfection.

One of my all time favorite places to go! Small and cozy with friendly staff. Pizzas are to die for with the freshest ingredients and their calamari is always perfectly done. Antipasti platter is amazing to share as well. Would give 6 starts but Its not an option ! Cheers

Chris Taylor

We really enjoyed our visit, great little place with personal service. Not many places you can go and enjoy house made pasta and table bread. You can really tell they put in the extra care and effort into the cooking. Very reasonable prices too, we'll be back.

Philip Mason

It was a wonderful evening meal, service was divine which paired perfectly with the wonderful food. The plates were portioned exquisitly, leaving just enough room for desert and after meal coffee. It is definitely a restaurant on St.Paul worth noting. I look forward to the next visit!

Davide Ferrelli

Wicked food, great wine selection, the team there works in harmony to bring you your food in a timely manner

I am Italian and I moved to Niagara in 2019. N'ata Cosa is absolutely an authentic and delicious Italian place where to dine!!! They have the best Napoli style pizza in Niagara! Not just pizza but Appetizers, Pasta and Meat!! You should definitely try this place!!!

Kelly Bee

Went for lunch with a grouo. I had the salmon which was delicious. Everyone's meals looked fantastic. No complaints. Good service too.

Dianne Marsh

We stopped here on the way home from Niagara Falls, we had a craving for Italian; this was the best Carbonara I've had! With fresh pasta and ingredients the meal was delicious! We also had Bolognese and pizza at our table which was really great as well. Wonderful service.

Amy Macneill

Wonderful, family owned Italian restaurant. Food is beautifully plated and portions are satisfying and fairly priced. Grazie per una cena bene!

Luke Cyrus Hunter

Every time I go to an nata Cosa the food is wonderful, the staff are so friendly, nothing else compares to the experienc,e

Ransom

One word - YES. Best pizza I've had in years and can't believe I've been living here and didn't discover it earlier. Do yourself a favour and treat yourself to this pizza tonight. Strap yourself in and board the flavour train to delicious-ville.

Catherine P E

Love this place, the food is delicious. I love the pizza and the tiramisu is amazing , great dining place in st Catharines

Shirley Cadotte

What a treat! Our first time and certainly won't be our last. Had a late lunch starting with Calamari, that was simply 'the best', followed by Bianca Pizza. Once again just deelish! Followed by a decadent dessert; the Tiramisu. Can't wait to go back, which will be soon!

Grant Rietze

Delicious, great service, this will be our go-to for meals for all future visits!

Ivan Arbelaez

Food is great but restaurant is too small. Be ready to wait if you really want to try. The place is too small and loud. You feel like you are sharing your table with everyone else.

Susana Martinez

Authentic Italian pizza ???? really delicious !!

Susanna Celso

It's not bad. I've only tried a couple of the pizzas which were not amazing, but decent enough that I'll eat there again. Will have to try other menu items.

l33tloy

Had a lovely lunch at this calabrese spot. Lovely price perfect portion Veal sandwich accompanied with a nice chianti. Highly recommend this beautiful Italian inspired cuisine right from the hearts of southern Italy.

Ted Hannahson

Likely the best stone oven bistro style pizza in Niagara! The rest of the menu, though kinda limited, is awesome too. Great, fantastic and delicious little place right downtown.

Alex Montana

food is great, I would definitely recommend a reservation especially on the weekends or if there is an event downtown - you may be turned away at the door.

Peter Walchuk

Dinner and hockey game. If the game is half as good as dinner it will be a great night. Excellent wine selection, with attentive friendly staff. Extensive menu with a real Italian flavour. I was totally impressed from the appetizer, to the main course and dessert. Perfection and quality at a very reasonable cost. Thank-you.

-켄사군

Their page says "Buying any 2 pizza and free pizza will be provided" so I asked them the extra pizza and they looked me weird person. Are they really doing this deal or just fake marketing??? Please don't say It's last week deal. I went there after the picture was uploaded. (Same day)

This restaurant would have made me a regular had it not been for the waitress being deceptive. The stars reflect that. I would normally have given 5 for a restaurant as excellent as this. We sat down and was served a walnut bread with balsamic/olive dipping plate and the waitress asked if we would like sparkling or still water. My daughter and I both requested still as we are pretty conscious of the environment and prefer plain water over bottled. I was confused when I saw at first glance, a seemingly unlabeled bottle after the waitress poured the water .. We didn't think anything of it after that. My daughter ordered a lovely panini that came with salad and I ordered the Gnocchi with a glass of chardonnay. Everything was delicious, well flavoured and service was great. The food was hot and we had absolutely no complaints. It is apparent that the chef takes pride in his work. I even appreciated how considerate he was to turn on the fan when he saw that I was having a bit of a hot spell. When the bill came, I quickly reviewed it and realized that we had been charged $5.00 for the water. It was then that I turned the bottle and found a small almost insignificant label. I was not happy as both my daughter and I perceived this as deliberate deception to increase the bill. why do I say that? Because I saw several times many years ago an ad that was looking for waiters and waitresses for the Minolta Tower in The Falls and the ad stated that the server must have a proven record of increasing the bill by a certain percent. This struck several of us who read it as a restaurant that is dishonest. I am disappointed and sad that I feel deceived and it is likely that I will not return. One might ask why I did not dispute the bill, my answer to that is that I did not want my daughter nor me to feel uncomfortable. We both believe that this was not an error and I was not well enough at the time to engage in conflict. It would have just ruined our afternoon.

Mandi Gould

Love the gnocchi so much, I've had it there on both of my visits. I should try something else on the menu but it's hard to get past how tasty that dish is. It's not a large portion, but very hearty and expertly made. A+

Katy Letourneau

This is a delightful little spot in downtown. Husband and wife owner make you feel very welcome and have no issues answering any questions. We had two pizzas and we can't wait to go back and eventually try them all! We had tiramisu for dessert. It was a deconstructed style presentation and it may have been the best I've ever had (and this is my favourite dessert!!). If they were to introduce a weekly wine special, I'd go back every week.

Andre Leblanc

The pepperoni pizza was really good, the big mac pizza was not what you expect it to be and confusing.

Clark's Glassworks

Great atmosphere for a street patio. Been waiting to try this place forever and it didnt disappoint. Very personable staff, amazing service. The prosciutto pizza was amazing

Frank Gasper

Great wood fired pizza. We had both the Verdure and the potato which had an awesome bechamel sauce. Everyone enjoyed their dinners and staff was wonderful!

Dan B

Great food and atmosphere. Some of the best pizza Neapolitan outside of Italy!

Omar Ahmed

Had a Great evening last night... I love the environment and the ambiance that made this place so enjoyable. The food was amazing and great service from our server Lauren (hope I spelled it right). I love the wood burning oven and that is why I came and they exceeded my expectations. Thank you to the team at N'ata Cosa it's amazing to see such great passion come through from the moment I walked in to the smile walking to my car.

Keke

Awesome pizza !! Good flavor !! Friendly staff and great chef !! First time here but would come back !

Robert Megaffin

Went for dinner here on a recommendation and read all the reviews. Ordered a Stella beer and was unable to get the second one as they run out of Stella. Asked for some more bread and was told I couldn’t have any but then she thought better and brought me a couple more rolls. My wife had the pizza and was unable to eat it because the center crust was like glue. We complained and they were unwilling to except any blame and said that’s the way they usually cook their pizzas. It’s unhealthy to have a stomach full of uncooked dough.My pasta was OK but just loaded with so much tomato sauce. It’s the first time in my life that I have walked out of a restaurant and not tipped the waitress.I felt bad about that as it was not the waitress fault but since they were unwilling to accommodate our complaint I did not feel I should be paying $18 for a pizza that we only ate two pieces We went next-door to another restaurant and had a proper dinner

Elaheh Abdollahi

The quality is awful. The customer service is so bad ... anything we chose from the menu, they didn't have it! The menu is written in a way that you understand NOTHING from the menu! Worst ever!

Alyssa Klassen

Went here for my Birthday, cozy place recommend reservations. With the pizza oven it can get pretty warm in here (dress in layers). Pasta was GREAT! 1 out of 2 of our pizza's was delicious the other was burnt ... 1 server on a Saturday, could have been more attentive with drinks. Would go back.

Len Wright

I ate here with my wife, daughter and son-in-law and had a very interesting and enjoyable evening. We shared two appetizers, Antipasto del duo, and Calamari Fritti which were interesting and well presented. For a main course my daughter ordered the Gnocchi, which was absolutely delicious. My wife enjoyed the Lobster Ravioli, also delicious and my son-in-law was impressed with the braised short ribs. I ordered the Margherita Pizza, which unfortunately did not live up to the rest of the meal. The crust itself was well done and nicely charred, but lacked salt. The tomato sauce and especially the cheese was very cold and was hardly melted, using slightly less sauce and thinner slices of cheese would have resulted in a far better result. For desert my wife and daughter shared a creme brûlée, which they both agreed was very good. The restaurant has a nice wine and beer selection, overall atmosphere and service was very friendly and attentive. The only minor criticism is that it would have been nice if all the food had been brought out together. This is a great place to eat, pricing is reasonable and it is well worth a visit. Overall one of the nicest Italian restaurants in the area.

Dobson

Thank you for addressing our dining experience. Much appreciated.

Rita Fazzalari Keats

Great staff and service. We had delicious wood fired pizza served in a timely manner. Pizza calabrese and pizza Amaro bastardo were very spicy but really good. Beware if you have no heat tolerance

Neil Law

Seeing the menu we were excited to dine here for the first time. My wife and I shared the grilled octopus. Unlike a similar dish we had elsewhere this one had a fishy smell and was on the tough side. For mains I ordered the rack of lamb and my wife the duck confit. They came back and said they were out of rice for the risotto (how does an Italian restaurant run out of arborio rice) but would sub mash potatoes or pasta with oil. My wife asked for a different pasta but that would be an additional 18$. Her duck came not crispy at all and missing a couple of items. My lamb came with a couple of chops and a couple of fingerling potatoes. For the price I was expecting more. The lamb tasted old and a little gamey, like the frozen chops I had as a child. The base of the plate looked like a soggy, unappetizing mess. Service was okay but they didn't seem very concerned about our issues. Can't say we'll be going back

Doug Wilson

So pretentious.. We decided to try this place out based on Google reviews for their wood oven pizza. They brought out bread and a plate with a microscopic amount of oil and balsamic vinegar to start. No where near enough for even 1/2 of the bread provided. The tables are jammed together and the prices are quite high. My better half noted that they charge an extra $3.00 for a pizza if you plan to share it. What’s that all about? We asked if they had Caesar salad to which they replied “we are Italian. We don’t have Caesar salad” hmmm... ok We asked if we could have chicken on the pizza and they replied “we are out of hen today so we do have chicken but no you cannot have it on your pizza”. Number 1, why not? Number 2, a hen is a female chicken. Google it if you must. If you are feeling snooty and falling off your wallet because it’s too full of cash then maybe this is the place for you. We appreciate good food and good service and don’t mind paying for it but we left. Dear Sir or Madam: I have increased your establishments rating from 2 to 3 stars based on your timely and informative response to my original review. From your response to my review you do not sound at all pretentious. Perhaps you should better inform your wait staff about the impression which you would like them to present to customers. I do however take issue with it being implied that I am a liar. Shame on you. “We are Italian. We don’t have Caesar salad”, ”we are out of hen but we have chicken However no, you cannot have this on your pizza” are verbatim quotes from your waitress. My friend has an eidetic memory so I have also confirmed these statements with her. With regard to the “free bread” you mention we felt badly about this at the time. I had no cash, another couple had just arrived looking for a table and I didn’t want to cause any more of a scene. I felt that you could likely just turn the table and your business would not suffer. I stopped on my way to work this morning and attempted to slide compensation for this under your door. Hopefully You found this and hopefully you will forgive my original faux-pas. In the end all we were looking for was a Caesar salad and a wood oven white pizza with red pepper, chicken and mushroom.

Cody Bowes

This is a real Italian restaurant. Ive been to and tried top restaurants in Italy that do not even compare. The pasta is made fresh every day, the sauce is to die for. Highly recommend and would go so far to say this is the #1 restaurant in St. Catharines.

Krista Alexopoulos

Delicious Delicious Delicious!!! My husband I stumbled upon this place half knowing about it and enjoyed every bite! We are about a 20min drive or so but we will be back!!!

Eva Filer

Hands down, one of the best places in Niagara. Their food is always excellent, and the wine selection is great as well!

Jason Daniels

Great atmosphere, with friendly staff. Took my son out for a pizza lunch. Their pizza reminds me of the pizzas I ate in Sicily; thin crust cooked at high temperatures. Edges of the pizza were crispy, and the middle chewy and delicious. Had a mushroom and sausage pizza which was fantastic. Coffee is also great.

Matias Cazal

I checked this place out on Google Maps and saw that the pizza pictures looked good so I went to have dinner here. The pizza was so salty I could only eat a couple of slices. I love salt, people tell me I may have a blood pressure problem from it, but this one was even too much for me. Apart from that, the pasta dishes for DINNER were the size of a small side bowl, but they were FULL PRICE (over $20). Small establishment with not much seating. Not recommended. Update: Returned on behalf of friends. I went in with a good intention to like the restaurant since so many people say good things about it. Had the calamari appetizer for a starter and it was great. Had a pizza for dinner and it was also very good, kudos! I was glad to enjoy both those things. Was on my way back the third time and thinking of changing my review. The Caesar salad was not very good, it was a bit dry and small. They give you anchovies, which are good, but smaller portion than the first time I had Caesar salad. Decided to try the pasta again since the restaurant replying to my review made me skeptical of my own assertions. I stand by my review even more, and the people that were with me agree as well. Small plate, small portion. Not only was the pasta so small, it tasted like butter and hard pasta. Imagine cooking pasta, taking it out before it's cooked and just adding a ton of butter to it. That's exactly what the 'pescatore' pasta tasted like. Despite the terrible pasta, the calamari was again good. The wine was good also. They took away app plates and cutlery and didn't bring knife back so hard to cut the big shrimp in the dish. Paper napkin, taken away after app and never brought another. Waitress was plain rude and mean, whoever she was, I don't recommend her. I had a young blonde guy the second time and he was pretty good. The restaurant reesponded to my original review and said I didn't communicate my dissatisfaction with the restaurant. So at the end of the meal, the waitress asked me 'do you want to take the rest home with you?' to which I said 'no thanks, it did not taste very good' and she said 'okay.' So, not only do I stand by the original review, I'm offended that the restaurant decided to attack the reviewer (me) instead of taking the criticism and try to make some improvements.

C Sasani

Delicious fresh pasta and pizza! Cozy ambience! Wine selection was great. Service was lovely. Will definitely be back as we are Italian and are super picky about Italian food. Grazie

M Dhami

I was disappointed. Nothing light on the menu for a work day. I took a make a client out for lunch. No creative substitutions or add ons. I ordered the chicken parm without anything on the side because they couldn't sub out the pasta for raw veggies or steamed, because they had none. I have an allergy to certain lettuce in spring mix, so couldn't have that. Don't tell me that it is handbreaded chicken ...it was frozen. You can tell it was dehydrated on the inside. A lot of detail was missed and assumptions were made by the waitress that put me off. The icing on the cake was when the waitress gave the cheque directly to my male client, not even in the middle of the table. What year is it? Thanks for your response and letting me know that it is all my fault.

Haley Nemcko

Great pizza! Love the char of the wood oven snd the corn meal adds a nice flavor!

vipin acharya

If you are craving for true Neapolitan pizza and Italian food. This is the perfect restaurant. Love this place.

Bailey Amos

Upon arrival the hostess (the manager) stated that their online reservation system was not working, and that it was our fault that we didn’t have a table. We were told that only patio tables were available (it was cold, and even with coats the patio heaters provided no benefit). I asked about the empty tables inside and she said they were “for people with reservations”. We agreed to sit on the patio. Once seated, we were not served for 30 mins. When our drink order was finally taken, another 20 mins passed before the wrong drinks were delivered. During this time, the server proceeded to miss the glass and pour the water we ordered all over the table/my purse. During this time an older white couple with no reservation arrived and the server informed them that only patio tables were available, which they agreed to. However, the manager appeared and gave them a table inside (one that was vacant since our arrival). I asked our server why this older white couple was able to receive a table immediately even though they had no reservation. He stated “it was the manager’s decision”. After 50 minutes without having our order taken we decided to leave. I asked for separate cheques for our drinks, and one cheque was delivered incorrectly.

Daniel Passero

Top notch service and absolutely incredible menu! The toughest choice is selecting what to order - everything is 10/10 Authentic Italian cuisine at its finest. Highly recommend eating at this restaurant, you'll soon be addicted!

Rebecca McIntyre

Fantastic food and atmosphere, but felt rushed. Appetizer, dinner and a bottle of wine in under an hour.

Marcel Marquis

Really cozy restaurant with some really great pizza. Service is fantastic.

Ari El Hamdhani

This place is solid. Visited on our way to an excursion in Niagara Falls and the food was delicious. We were lucky enough to grab the last available table for the night on the street patio and it was beautiful. The pizza was as authentic as it is in Italy and the surf & turf was a solid pick. Fresh, tasty and that Chef certainly knows what he’s doing. Their sommelier has some great picks too. Can’t wait to come back.

Ralph Feisthauer

Food was fantastic. Excellent service from the chef and staff. They ensured we had the best dining experience.

B

Best Italian food in the city hands-down! The owner is the chef and he is fantastic really. You can’t go wrong with anything on the menu

Vickie Mahoney

Love going here. Calamari is the best in St. Catharines.Always great service. Always great food.

Elizabeth Riitano

We were visiting Niagara Falls and came to this restaurant on my husband's birthday. Our son looked for a restaurant with authentic wood fired pizza and found this place. We arrived, with reservations, at 8 p.m. on a Friday night and we were told they were out of pizza dough. They are called a pizzeria and most of the menu was pizza. There was one extremely overworked waitress (she was very kind) and it seemed as if the place is poorly run. The food was, at best, fair. The tomato sauce had little flavor, as did other dishes in my family of 6. Worst of all, the manager who was identified as being the owner's son eventually came over and offered a weak apology for the lack of items available on the menu. It's a great looking menu that doesn't match reality.

Vertis Poland

This place is my # 1 Italian in Town. They make everything from scratch; quality is superior. I loved their octopus salad; tender and tasty. Good selection of wines. Highly recommended!

Jake Hobday

Favourite restaurant in St. Catharines hands down. All fresh ingredients, a chef that really cares and a great atmosphere.

Brad Halliday

I've been coming here for years and I'm never disappointed. Whatever you get will be made fresh and will be authentic Italian. I always tell people that the pizzas here are better than any I had in Napoli and surrounding areas. This is probably my favourite restaurant in Niagara.

J. C.C

I can't say enough about N'ata Cosa. Never disappointing and some of the most amazing Italian food around. Kat is super friendly up front and she assures you that your dining experience exceeds expectations. Christopher, well he's just magical in what he does. My only negative is that I am limited to 5 stars when leaving a review. 10*. JohnnyCC.

mary allen

Start to finish it was the best meal my family has had. We have not been to a restaurant that makes all of their pasta fresh daily in a while. The fresh pasta was to die for. The agnolotti truffle were decadent. We were greeted with fresh bread and olive oil which left a great aroma at the table to begin our evening. Wine was chilled perfectly. The calamari were crisp and tender. The salads were just right! The dessert we shared a tiramisu. AMAZING. We ate so much but we could literally eat here every night lol. See you again!

Mary Capretta

Very delicious. Food and service was warm, inviting, friendly and delicious! Grazie grazie we will return and love this new find!

Michelle Singh

Amazing food every visit and the staff cannot do enough for us! The $10 lunch is an absolute steal! Can't wait to go again!

Audrey Smith

2 pizzas for $25. We purchased takeout during this pandemic time. They are fortunate to have the ability for window pickup! The pizzas were marvelous blends of ingredients. Thin bottom crust; a Go To. The pesto pizza was incredible! Thank you!

Kate Arbuckle

My husband and I just tried this restaurant tonight. I admittedly am very picky when eating at restaurants. We will definitely be returning. That was one of the most fabulous meals I've enjoyed in a long time. I can't wait to go back and try other items on their menu. Both the service and food were top notch. Thank-you so much! Sincerely; Kate Thompson

LEE Ooo

Italian food can have many interpretations its up to the chef to present the clarification. The chef here is doing Italian right. We found our salad presented well and very fresh ingredients. The size was plentiful with a nice twist on Caprese. The sauce was freshly made very light not a mush of ingredients but I tasted every ingredient. Fresh pasta. The restaurant is very cozy almost too small for comfort. We felt hemmed in but our server was very helpful and attentive so we overlooked the small space.

Janessa Viraldi

My, oh my.. this place is the real deal. Actual Italian food, unlike some of the other “Italian” joints that pretend they make Italian food. The lasagna bolognese is *chefs kiss*.

M. Taylor

I had placed an order through 'a delivery service that shall not be named' for my father's birthday, and unfortunately it was cancelled at the last minute by said delivery service. I called the restaurant directly and they were wonderful and, fortunately, they were able to help me out. My parents absolutely loved their food, and we look forward to going there when things return to normal. The pizza and gnocchi were a hit! Thanks for coming through in the clutch, N'ata Costa!

Harout Maz

One of the best restaurants in the city and great authentic Italian food. Went there last weekend, ordered the Prosciutto/Arugula pizza, i had the sirloin and she had the duck. Food is always top notch, service is great and the atmosphere is intimate. Check it out if you haven't yet.

JD N

This is our go-to place for authentic Italian in the Niagara region. Been coming here for years and finally sat down to write a review. Always a positive experience! Best Napoletana Pizza in the area in our opinion, with lots of options. Non-pizza lunch/dinner options always fresh and really delicious as well! Have new great options to try regularly. Miss the squid ink pasta on the menu. Nice atmosphere inside and the Italian music in the background is always such a nice touch. The owner and the main hostess have always been so wonderful and friendly too. Happy we can do delivery during these times + having a young baby, but miss dining-in to enjoy the pizza fresh out of the oven and the yummy desserts (we miss the tiramisu, gelato and cheesecake...)! Thank you N'ata Cosa!

Tim Sattin

Without a doubt the best pizza I've ever eaten. Excellent service. We'll be back,

Flynn deHamilton

We had lunch today, we dine out often and never review but this place had exceptionally good food, and attentive service, prices are good too. Pizzas, grilled calamari and paninis all excellent, very fresh and flavorful. Definitely a top choice from now on

Nathan Phillip

The BEST Italian food I have ever had. Chris the owner has always taken great care of my family everytime we go there. Highly recommended

Maureen Speelman

Visited recently with a group of 16. They set up the entire patio for us. Service was excellent and the staff didn’t miss a beat. We tried pretty well every appetizer on the menu and a few pizzas too (the pizza cremosa and pizza calabrese come highly recommended!!). The cocktails were out of this world! Tried the duck breast and my husband had the rack of lamb and they were both mouthwatering - totally generous portions. I think our group tried just about everything on the menu and did we ever love it. The house made gelato was phenomenal. Definitely recommended and definitely one of the top restaurants in the area (May I dare say the country?) Excellent!

Habiba Farouk

Food is excellent to say the least, and the gnocchi… genuinely one one of the best food i’ve ever had, no exaggeration. I would recommend this to anyone. Fantastic food and fantastic service, will definitely try again!

Lena Fizzo

We had a small family dinner on Friday night. 6 people and 5star service and food. The smell of this little Ristorante just smells like heaven. The bread was fresh! The pastas were ALL made in house and when the chef came out we all expressed our appreciation. We lovedddddd everything as did the tables around us!!! The service was so well administered! Not one flaw. We felt like it was fine dining but at a relaxable and much less expensive, but, I'd say 10x the quality. The chef is a cordon bleu chef and this is his baby. We loved everything about it. In a restaurant where the chef comes out when he finishes cooking your meal with his team to check on you. This is where you can be certain you will not leave unhappy. The place was packed out the door and down the street. If there is a bad review on here it is more than likely someone jealous of how well this lil Ristorante is put together. Excellent job chef and staff! We will be back

Melody Culp

Cozy atmosphere.. Wood oven pizza was amazing ! Definitely would eat here again

Art Nelson

My second visit was outstanding like befoe. Amazing food, beautiful presentation. They made us feel welcome. Great job!

Vince Cardinali

Excellent wood oven pizza. The branzino was delicious. Can't wait to go back.

John Passerona

The best restaurant I have ever been to. The best way they treat our family. The freshness of the pastas. Open concept kitchen. The aromatic scents of coffee, sauces and the wood oven fire and pizzas which are made in sight. We really enjoy it! Keep up the great work.

Jennifer Adams

Splendid!! My husband surprised us with dinner here for our 25th wedding anniversary. We were greeted with champagne and our servers attention to detail was excellent. We thoroughly enjoyed the pasta that the chef makes fresh. We didn't try the pizza, but boy was it delicious looking when we saw it! The tiramisu was spectacular. This restaurant hit it out of the park! Thanks for a wonderful evening!

Michael Irwin

Tried to call several times. Noone answered. Went to the restaurant and the deal they have online the won't honour. My opinion, very poorly run restaurant.

Eli Serrano

A beautiful place to wine and dine the woman in your life. Excellent evening on Valentine’s with my lady. The bison was cooked to perfection and was excellent. Our server Cath was wonderful. We will definitely return. The restaurant was jam packed with people so make a reservation!!

Sanghee An

Everything was so nice. Perfect food, nice service????????

Hilda Pergota

Id give a 6 star if I could - a delicious dine in experience. The absolute best service and food! Everyone knows about this place and I’m the last one to the party apparently. Italian restaurant with an executive chef from Calabria overseeing all aspects of the food. We had n’duja pizza to go, wagyu ravioli, Shrimp caviar pasta, black squid ink spicy pasta, fresh oysters, limoncello, espresso and cappuccinos. They make fresh bread for dinner service- YES it’s complimentary. How nice. We love fresh bread but sometimes restaurants charge. Chef brought us out Prosecco for our birthday. So nice. A great evening with the best Italian food we have had in years. The service was so personable. Highly recommend

Ashley Charlton

My boyfriend surprised me on Valentines Day with dinner at N’ata Cosa. We arrived a bit late and the staff was happy to accommodate us before we were off to our show. The ladies working were so friendly and kind even though it was so busy. The food did not disappoint and it was so cozy and intimate sitting on the back booths. The Chefs menu was incredible and we loved every minute of it. Top notch!

Jessica Leeming

I’ve just returned from Italy and was recommended to check this place out. It certainly did not disappoint. We walked in without a reservation and were lucky enough to grab the last table. The pizza tasted just like Italy and the char was perfection. Salads were fresh and tasty and ohh those meatballs! The server was friendly and knowledgeable..she also made amazing cocktails for my friends and I. Can’t wait to come back!

Mike Morrison

Absolutely delicious! Great authentic Italian cuisine.

Lorie Unruh

What am incredible meal and dining experience! Absolutely delicious!

Jessica O

Absolutely the best Italian in St. Catharines. The waitresses are extremely knowledgeable and can quickly give recommendations. The food is out of this world and the chef is very kind! Also extremely fair pricing.

Brad Jones

Amazing food. No need to go to Italy for great Italian food…this place has it. Their pizzas are better than the ones I had in Rome, Sorrento and Cefalu, Sicily. Congrats..

D Duncan

Delicious pizza!!! Definitely plan to return again for another pizza lunch.

Jennifer Atkins

Enjoyed a very memorable evening here recently. Top knotch food and staff. The homemade pasta is out of this world and the pizza is undisputedtly the best I’ve had outside of Italy. Highly recommended!

Bobby V

Best Pizza in the city. Authentic. High quality ingredients make all the difference. Also had a chance to order they're Thanksgiving dinner and it did not disappoint.

Paul J

Went here for the first time the other evening. We had pizza, pasta, calamari and a desert. All home made from scratch. All unbelievably good. Food like you get in Italy. We will be back and would recommend to others. What a find.

Joe Taverna

Food is always amazing and great pizza.

Why 5 stars? Everything was amazing. The pizza calabrese was so good it was hands down the best pizza I have ever enjoyed. Charred airy crust, nice spice, thin with so much flavour. The seafood pasta was so fresh that it tasted like they they prepared noodles in house....and they do. Open concept kitchen where the chef is a working chef and came out and checked on our meal. It was laid back. The family had a great time. Kids loved it. We all did. Highly recommend

We had your brunch two weeks ago Sunday and LOVED it. Everything was so fresh and amazing the rain cleared up and the patio was so inviting and cozy with enough shade and sun. How do you get those pizzas so nice thin and airy crust. OMG...My hubby loved it! The fresh hamachi crudo was to die for and the Bain Marie French toast was un real. Had to write you! Thanks for the business card and Prosecco and complimentary butter croissant service! Everything was so fresh!!!! Amazing and welcoming. We can see why you are so busy! Great to meet the team and look forward to featuring you on our blog! ❤️❤️❤️❤️???????????? ????????????????✌️✌️
