    Cardinale is great. Reasonably priced food, great wine selection. Location is ideal for pre-hockey game meals or before a concert. Will continue to go for a great meal.

    One the best Italian restaurants in Calgary, all their pasta noodles are made in house, this can be tricky, texture is perfectly done, nothing like fresh pasta noodles when done right
