"Named for the classic 1948 Italian film, this shabby-chic waterfront restaurant has won similar critical acclaim by local foodies – and with good reason." Full review
Fodor's "Chic, casual, and hugely popular (with good reason), this place has a patio right on the waterfront—on the landward side look for the old bicycles parked outside." Full review
Afar Magazine "Oceanside on the Halifax waterfront - reservations are a must for a weekend." Full review
Frommer's "Dishes are divided into “1st Gear”, “2nd Gear” and “High Gear” but be careful: often the 2nd gear offerings are as large as the High Gear ones so it’s not unusual to over-order." Full review
