“ This was our first time here. We had no reservations but we did manage to get a table. So next time we shall make a reservation. We started with the calamari, perfection, lightly coated could not call it a batter it was so thin, tender warm yummies. Have not had calamari’s in a while that I enjoyed so very much. Sorry no photo as I was too busy enjoying them had a hard time sharing. My love had the lasagna and added the bolognese over it, he loved it. The rolls appeared to be made in-house went perfectly with the lasagna. I had the 3 cheese pizza with pesto and pine nuts, and in-house crust. Very tasty the right amount of cheese blend with the p&p made for a wonderful meal. I had a The Punch cocktail will be trying to replicate this at home. Will definitely go back again maybe for the lunch menu. ”
“ Via Marzo has been our go to date night spot for the past couple of years, and we honestly cannot stay away. Every time we talk about trying somewhere new, we somehow always find ourselves back here. We even brought our toddlers once, and they made us feel just as welcome as always. The food and service are truly outstanding. Just last week, they went out of their way to make my wife her favorite dish for her birthday, a delicious saffron seafood chowder. It was absolutely perfect and just one example of how much care they put into everything they do. I have to mention the fresh baked bread with black seed too. It is worth the trip all on its own. Every meal starts with it and it sets the tone for something special. We cannot say enough good things about Via Marzo. I am sorry it took us this long to finally write about what every visit has been like. Thank you for making each night out feel so memorable. ”
“ What a great restaurant! It’s quaint, stylish and airy atmosphere while also feeling comfortable. Food and service were excellent! We will be back! ”
“ Lovely staff, incredible food. We had the linguine with prosciutto and mushrooms in a parmesan cream sauce and seafood linguine. We each had blueberry cheesecake for dessert; they make it in-house and it's incredible. Wonderful service. Highly recommended. ”
“ We never miss the opportunity to dine at ViaMarzo when we go to Kanata; my family (wife and daughter) and I always enjoy the great food they prepare. The taste and presentation are excellent, and the portions are proper. I always have paella, as it reminds me of the one my grandma prepared when I was a kid and brings me great memories. My family prefers the Pasta; no matter their choice, they always enjoy it. ViaMarzo will be the first option on my next visit to Kanata. ”
“ Definitely one of the best lasagna in Ottawa! Super delicious. I felt like I'm back to Italy. Other food is also amazing. Even though we waited for almost an hour for it, no regrets or disappointment. Space is nice an cozy. Definitely will be back again. ”
“ We have been going to Via Marzo since it opened and it's always amazing! Excellent food but the best is the service, especially Lisa! She is the best server we've ever had anywhere she's so attentive, you always feel like you're her only clients. We highly recommend going, if you've never been, it sure won't be your last visit! ”
“ My husband and I visited this place for date night, and we were not disappointed! The atmosphere is warm and cozy, making it feel like you're hanging out with friends. Our waitress was friendly and attentive, and the food was absolutely delicious. We tried the lasagna and loved it so much that we ordered a whole tray for a cottage trip with friends! It's a lovely spot—we highly recommend it! ”
