Lina Linguini’s - St. Catharines, Ontario

A long overdue review but nevertheless here goes….Food was great, enjoyed checking out the cute decors and restaurant was certainly cozy. This is one of the very few restaurants i would go back to again in St Catharines. My family and I had a great time catching up, with good ... food at Lina’s, that’s icing on the cake for us!

I recently dined at Lina Linguini's and had an exceptional experience from start to finish. The service was outstanding—prompt, friendly, and attentive without being intrusive. The staff made sure every aspect of our meal was perfect, enhancing our dining experience significantly. I highly recommend trying the spicy gnocchi dish. It was ... an absolute delight, with just the right amount of heat and perfectly cooked gnocchi that melted in my mouth. The flavors were well-balanced and left me craving more. Lina Linguini's truly knows how to create a memorable meal. Read more

This is an honest review. I rarely give one/two stars. Loved the decor, ambience and the service. However, the food did not live up to our expectations. We are italian, and this review may be more critical than others. Many dishes offered are made with tomatoe sauce…. and the sauce ... here needs A LOT of improvement. To our Italian family, it was inedible. I ordered the Black Truffel Sachetti Pasta and it was good (was not made with tomatoe sauce). The others in our group all ordered tomatoe sauce based dishes - veal parmigiana, linguine, gnocchi - and most of the food was not eaten. The salads were good (Caesar and Lina’s house salad). Lastly… the pizza, we ordered the Capricciosa. Firstly, capricciosa pizza is not made the way this place makes it. That aside, it wasn’t good. We did order 3 espressos and they were delish. I can’t give this place more than a one star. The service and people were wonderful, as was the decor. Read more

I can’t say enough good things about Lina Linguini’s Pasta and Grille! The service here goes above and beyond. They’re incredibly patient when taking orders, making sure they get everything just right. On top of their exceptional service, I was pleasantly surprised when they added a candle to our tiramisu dessert - ... it’s the little touches like this that truly make dining here special. The only thing that would make this place even better is if they offered halal options. I’d love the chance to try some of their popular dishes with that option available. Overall, a fantastic experience with delicious food and top-notch service. I’ll definitely be coming back! 👌🍝🕯️ Read more

Was visiting the area and wanted to try a local spot. The place was very busy on Wed afternoon which is always a good sign. The veal parmigiana was one of the best I’ve had. It had flat bread which wasn’t traditional but worked really well. House salad dressing isn’t ... the usual Italian. It had more of a fruity taste which I prefer. It’s not for everyone though. My colleagues had chicken Caesar salad. It was fresh and chicken was tender. I only wish I didn’t order sangria. There was an odd taste in there that I couldn’t figure out what. Overall a great place to enjoy lunch or dinner. There was a funny touch in the washroom: instead of music they played Italian language lessons that included common food items and restaurant lingo. I guess you can learn a few things before visiting Italy lol… Read more
