I was so excited to try this restaurant as I read a lot of great reviews. However; the food did not live up to the hype. The staff was lovely and very attentive and for that I give them 3 stars.

What a gem for a taste of Italy! To start off we had the calamari, delicious. Entrees we had were the linguine with clams, tutto mare linguine, both delicious. Our dessert was the tiramisu, in my opinion one of the best I have ever tasted. Overall we were extremely satisfied with the taste, presentation, and serving sizes. The servers work together to ensure all patrons are taken care of. Pricing is fair, drinks are good too! Lime margarita on the rocks. I will definitely recommend this spot!

Cozy place in an unassuming location. Wait staff was phenomenal! Food was superb. Portion sizes were a tad on the small side except for the lasagna, which was a nice size. If I lived in the area, I would definitely be back.

Visited Garden of Italy for the first time on Valentine's Day 2024. Excellent service & excellent food preparation. Prices are very good for the quality. Ordered the calamari as an appetizer, but was expecting deep-fried, crunchy calamari. Apparently, that is not how it is prepared in Italy. That is probably the Greek method of serving squid or octopus. In any case, we sent the calamari back. I was hoping/expecting the restaurant would've credited our bill for the amount, but that did not happen. It was a lesson in dining for next time, tho. Shared a small caesar salad that was perfect. The pasta dishes we had were perfectly done & creamy. Splurged on five drinks altogether. Dessert was lovely, too. A perfect evening. The restaurant is very popular with families & was very busy throughout the night. It is not at all large and was a bit noisy with all the people dining. Plus a couple of crying toddlers! Would definitely come again, maybe on a quieter night or for a mid-day lunch.
May be you guys should mention on the website your last dine in time. We were refused service at 9:20, while we drove 30 mins to you guys with 3 hungry kids.Never coming again.

We were headed up to Yellowknife to have the Arctic tundra experience by way of Vancouver and due to what the airline said was weather we circled Yellowknife for 30 minutes before being brought back to Calgary by way of Edmonton. This Italian place was just across the parking lot from the hotel we ended up at so we decided to give it a whirl. Very happy we did. My sweetie and I shared the lasagna and the prime rib steak special. Throw in some minestrone soup and an almond brownie with ice cream on top and the whole deal was delectable. Truly good food. Oh, and don’t forget the beer. They were hitting like slap shots from mid ice (or however Canadians would say it) check this place out, you’ll be glad you did. The service is great too.

No pictures as we were too hungry to take any after driving all day. For the $20 of pasta + $6 to add chicken the white sauce lacked much flavour and the chicken was dry for the fettuccine, the ravioli with the same or similar sauce was the same, as well as the portions of the pastas and the Caesar salad($8 for like 1 cup worth of lettuce) were small at best, ate the food and were still hungry after
