Vela Pizzeria - Halifax

I recently sampled the appetizers at La Frasca and was blown away by the flavor explosion in each bite! The variety of options they offer is truly impressive. Our server was incredibly friendly and attentive throughout the meal. My only suggestion would be to add a bit more lighting to enhance the ambiance. Overall, La Frasca is a must-visit for food enthusiasts looking for delicious dishes and a welcoming atmosphere. I can't wait to return for more!

The food here is always amazing. Tonight, we ate the lamb with smoked mushroom risotto. The lamb was perfectly cooked, moist and tender, and the risotto was incredible. There was just the right amount of smoke flavour in the mushrooms, and the risotto was cooked and seasoned perfectly. The arancini is always great here, the beef carpaccio was excellent, and the server recommended dessert of bread pudding was incredible also. I need to give a special shoutout to our server (her name might be Elizabeth, it says that on the receipt, but I didn't catch her name from her). This place was busy on Saturday night, and I've pretty much resolved myself to expect poor, or at least slow service when a restaurant is busy. Elizabeth was absolutely amazing at keeping our water glasses full, and checking back in at the right times to see if we needed anything else, and brought the bill in good time when I requested it. So many times lately I've waited 20 or 25 minutes for a bill after finishing dessert, when I just want to leave, so between keeping the water full (I drink a LOT of water while I eat) and not taking forever with the bill, this made a huge positive impact on my experience at La Frasca. She is one of the best servers around anywhere!!

Well, where do I begin. Both the 'front of the house ' and 'back of the house ' absolutely shone. We were warmly greeted, and the wonderful atmosphere set the stage for a wonderful dining experience. We were told that every dish offered could be customized and to let them know if we had any allergies or concerns or questions. From the amazing appetizers to the final desert dishes it was amazing. Thank you for an wonderful dining experience.

Came here for my birthday celebration and right off the bat they accommodated us and sat us 20 minutes early. We sat at a cozy corner table and had excellent service. Food came out fast and tasted fantastic. They even packaged my leftovers for me. At the end, our server surprised us with a free sorbet dessert! Overall great experience and would definitely recommend.

Second time there after our first bad experience. They were very genuine and concerned about our first experience. We were given a $50 gift card and the food was so much better. We started with GF bread, butter and garlic shrimp. My wife ordered their valley chicken and I ordered the lamb shank. I couldn't stop eating! The flavours made sense in each bite. The lamb was very tender and the chicken was seasoned perfect. Dessert was also very good! Creme Brule and Gelato for the win. I'm glad we went back to have a better opinion of this amazing restaurant
