    First time there. Wish I’d found it sooner. Service was friendly, knowledgeable and attentive Appetizer was just the right amount and quite tasty. My wife and I also both loved our entrees Almost all the pasta is made fresh at the restaurant and delicious Definitely recommend it and our new favourite restaurant

    We loved our experience at Nicolinos. Our waiter was very knowledgeable about all the food on the menu and beyond. He Had great recommendations and suggestions. There was a very large Christmas party that came in mid way though our meal and that made the atmosphere a bit chaotic I found but overall the service was still very good! The portions of the food were large and delicious.

    Large table of 20 next to us came in half way through our dinner. Understanding it is not a large dining restaurant and the holiday season the noise level was uncomfortable. It was difficult to hear my friends and enjoy the rest of our evening. Felt rushed to leave. Service and food great, however.

    Just a junky place with too much noise, meager quality food, exhibition prices and tables placed too close to make money sacrificing privacy and ambience. Not worth the time and effort to go there.

    Have one word to describe our dinner, GREAT. My wife and myself both had the pizza, best we ever had. Half priced wine Tuesday is a great extra touch. Server was a great help picking out the wine we had. Give 5 STARS.

    Had lunch with three of my girlfriends. We all ordered wine. The selection was great. We all order different meals. All was wonderful. I ordered the calamari which is the best I’ve had in Winnipeg. They have new chairs which are really comfortable and our server was very knowledgable and suggested wine for us. Roxanne.

    The food was fantastic. A little on the pricier side for my average dinner date but worth every cent. The atmosphere was amazing, great lighting, great noise level, and fantastic service. They were very knowledgeable about the menu and the food tasted fresh and amazing. You could really tell the staff is invested in their product and nothing disappointed. I have already recommended the restaurant to three other couples and a couple single friends too!

    This was my first time I would not be my last. From the time we sat down, there was an adventure food, wine with an experience with flavors that I had never heard before. When I am in Winnipeg, this will be a must. The food was amazing.
