Best Contemporary Italian Restaurants in Victoria

The people & especially the food was amazing! Totally recommend for a casual dinner or a celebration of any kind

Mussels with spaghetti in the white wine sauce was delicious!! Try the fall drink menu! Also our server was great!

Our server Shaun was outstanding!! It was our first time dining at Aldo’s and definitely not our last!

This was our first-time to Pazzo and it was wonderful. Quite small and cozy. Humble in decor. Good menu which we will return to try...wait what?...yes, we had the goat cheese app off the menu and the arugula salad...both delivered delicious. For the other salad and our entrees we had to go off the special menu...special salad in a balsamic vinegarette , gnocchi for one entrees and duck for the other. Both outstanding. The gnocchi themselves were well made; the dish had pancetta and we don't do pig. We tried to get an alternative presentation but something was lost in the translation with the server and we just pressed on with as prepared minus pancetta. We both look forward to enjoying the gnocchi again with a different presentation. The duck breast was a homerun as well. Wife's bday...she had a glass of Pinot Noir she loved and it must have been great because the nose was outstanding. I had a non-alcoholic aperol spritzer that was great. We were in a bit of a rush as we had tickets to a concert at the Majestic, so our next visit we will take our time. Owner was welcoming and accommodating as was our waitress. Staff was knowledgeable and accommodating to others. Place was full by 6:15 on Friday...we know why...little treasure in that part of town and for all in town. Definitely a romantic little spot one can count on for quality, service, conversational environment. Way to easily support a local small business when it is this good. Really looking forward to exploring the menu...almost forgot to mention they offer petit portions for small appetites and curious pallets...smart. Overall, well worth your time, money and drive if you are in another part of town. Cannot say enough good things, but I will stop here. Blessings to Pazzo and the people of Pazzo!!! Really well done! Thank you very much!

On the Riverwalk in the ground level of the Westin. Good selection bar and food. Good service.
