Came across this restaurant on a whim one day as we were looking for lunch & I’ve been hooked since! Food is so fresh & delicious, portions are generous & it tastes great as leftovers maybe even better. The roasted chicken really surprised me as I didn’t expect it to be that juicy & flavorful & all the different components worked together so well. Service has been great each time, very friendly & attentive. Will definitely be recommending to all my friends & family. Looking forward to having dinner here soon too.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I finally got the chance to try this amazing restaurant, and it did NOT disappoint! From the moment I walked in, the ambience was perfect—stylish, welcoming, and cozy. The food was fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. Every dish was a treat, and the service was top-notch—attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable. I'm so excited that it lived up to all my expectations. If you haven't been yet, you have to go! I can't wait to return soon. Highly recommend!

PASQUALINO -5 star fine dining in Milton well priced. Gorgeous, inviting setting, comfortable seating, beautifully adorned tables and linens, impeccable service, and the food… Italian cuisine, ingredients sourced from Italy and locally. Excellent pace of meal, not rushed, great suggestions and recommendations from servers, anticipating your every need. We enjoyed the wood - fired pizza, Calamari Fritti, Agnolotti with a delectable chestnut cream filling , linguine for the kids and Gorgonzola, pear salads and deserts with nicely paired wines all perfectly prepared and well presented. Compliments to the chefs. I was celebrating my birthday and felt truly celebrated. A long established family business that treats you like family. It was busy at lunch time but that is a testament to it’s popularity and high standards. Cannot wait to go again.

I went there with my friend and we had an excellent time. The restaurant was beautiful and clean,, the atmosphere was lovely. The service was also very kind and sweet. We ordered one of the pizzas to share which we both really enjoyed. I ordered the branzino fish dish and it was absolutely delicious, highly recommend to others 😋 👌🏻. My friend ordered one of the pasta dishes which she enjoyed. For dessert we got the almond torte and it was more bitter than we were expecting so we weren't to excited about that dish but still overall enjoyable. 9.5/10

Pasqualino a cozy downtown spot that serves up tasty Italian food. The vibe is warm and inviting, perfect for a lunch or night out. I kicked things off with the Suppli al Cacio e Pepe, which was fresh and super tasty paired nicely with a glass of their house made cocktails. For my main, I got the wood fired burrata pizza, and it had a nice thin crust that was spot on. The service was friendly and helpful, too. Overall, it’s a great place for a casual dinner or a special occasion.

My first lunch at this restaurant was fantastic. I enjoyed everything I ordered. However, the last two times I had lunch here, even though I ordered the same chicken dish with the same hot sauce, it was not the same in taste. Both times were disappointing experiences as it did not taste the same as before. I ordered the same chicken dish all three times, and the taste differed. I might not go again any time sooooon even though I would love to.…….. The seating area is also a bit crowded, which is not my favourite.

This is a good Italian restaurant! The best plates we ordered was the burrata pizza and the gnoochi alla bolognese. It does get busy at this restaurant we waited awhile for our food. Service was overall amazing! Everyone was friendly. The bottle of wine they recommended was really good in the pictures!

We have been so excited to try Pasquillino so I took my mom for her birthday. Unfortunately we were very disappointed. The service has a lot of room to improve. The servers didn t really smile let alone even talk at all to us. We were first served complimentary bread and oil. The bread was not served warm and was slightly stale. We didn t get a dish for the olive oil or balsamic. So we were expected to just pour it ourselves into our side plates? Strange for such an expensive restaurant. We then got the octopus appetizer which was amazing! The calamari fell very short for us. For our mains we ordered the braised short rib, spicy sausage cavatelli and the duck dish. Duck and short rib were both amazing but pasta was just okay. When we got the bill it wasn t even given in a tray or a receipt holder! I didn t need my mom seeing how much we spent on the meal. I ve gotten higher end service for a $30 meal. Overall we were extremely disappointed after being so excited to try. We will not be returning.

Essentially a high end East Side Marios. I wanted to celebrate my birthday kid free. So we decided that since this place is known to be a little more on the higher end and it was later in the evening, chances are there wouldnt be that many kids around. When we arrived (Saturday Night), we were seated in between two families, each with 2 younger kids. Not the restaurants fault, but the kids were playing videos extremely loud. Not the experience that we had expected nor wanted. One table had broken a dish beside ours and it was never picked up. Our server took forever to come to us and when trying to explain the menu, found that she had a hard time explaining what certain items were. As we sat and waited for our food, it was taken almost an hour to come out. When arrived, it was not what I ordered, but it was ok as I was too hungry. The waitress explained it only takes 5 minutes to make a new one. Which made me even more upset, because I couldnt figure out why then it took so long to come to the table in the first place. The atmosphere in general was super loud and way over crowded for a restaurant that I thought was supposed to be a more fine dining experience. The food however was actually really good. So that I can is what saved the experience. Not recommended for anyone looking for a quite evening.

My family and I came here to have dinner while We were in Milton. We had the calamari, burrata appetizer and The agro pizza. The calamari and Burrata appetizer were really good but quite small for the price. The pizza was really good as well if you like the bubblegum Chewy crust. I prefer a crispy crust myself. All in all a really nice restaurant but really over priced. I ve been to better Italian restaurants with lower prices. I would not come back simply because of the high prices for above average food.

While the restaurant leans towards the pricier side, the quality and presentation of the dishes certainly justify the cost. Overall, it was a fine dining experience worth every penny.

Went here tonight for dinner at 8:00pm, the atmosphere was super elegant and nice for a date night. However, from the time we sat down and drank one glass of wine, we waited over an hour n half before our waiter came back to our table to see how we are. We ordered a charcuterie board, where 2 different waitress /waiter couldn t tell us what type of cheese we were eating or what was even on the $40 board. We didn t get any refill of water, or ask if we were doing okay. Not to mention our 2 pasta dishes took over 2 hours to arrive to our table, where it was cold and not overly enjoyable. This restaurant provided horrible service, with 8 waitress/waiters walking around, they were too busy socializing with other customers and catching up rather than serving guests. The food was decent but it was small portions, we left hungry and not returning any time soon. Would not recommend this restaurant if you re in a hurry or hungry considering it was a $300 bill. This was a super disappointing first time experience.

The food was delicious and very lovely. Especially the chicken with many side dishes was excellent. My pizza was delicious, the truffle was very good. The behavior of the waiter could be much better. There was a lot of prejudice that he prejudged that we wanted to have a bill or he prejudged who was in an emotional relationship with whom or many other prejudices that are outside the scope of a service provider.

WOW it s been nearly a week since I posted this and I also emailed them directly and absolutely NO response. Talk about unprofessional SHAME on you. We had dinner Thursday evening and we normally enjoy the evening. This night though we were very disappointed. My husband loves veal and I don t and all he wanted was Veal Parmesan. The waiter who took our drink order wrote down what my husband wanted for his main meal and I was still undecided. When another waitress came to get our order we started with the calamari. Again he reiterated he wanted Veal Parmesan. I decided in the steak. When our main course came my husband started eating and after a few bites into it realized it was Chicken Parmesan. We told our waiter and offered to bring him a fresh meal. By now my husband is very unhappy and didn t want another meal. There was no offer of any kind of compensation for this error. I suggested they make a meal for him to take home. When we got the bill they didn t remove anything to show any good will to our ruined evening. The response we got was we didn t charge you for the veal dinner we were taking home. Made us feel like they did us a favour. The waiter even argued he didn t take the order with the drink order. At least the waitress acknowledged the error. We like to dine out at nice restaurants so we do it occasionally. We will put Pasqualinos on back burner for now and go back to our other 2 regulars. VERY disappointed in their customer service. I worked my whole life in customer service and would have handled this differently

A true neighborhood gem. The food was excellent! It was our first time here, and we were underdressed in this unanticipated opulence. Nonetheless, we were made comfortable with a warm welcome, friendly and professional hospitality. Started off sharing a Caesar Salad and Calamari Fritti. Then enjoyed the Farfalle al Pesto and Lombo dAgnello alla Siciliana, finished off with a Tiramisu & espresso. Everything is super fresh, delicious and very well presented.

Overpriced and the staff tries to upsell all the time it s annoying especially those 2-3 old Italian men that serve I want to throw up each time I see them! They can t smile they are so serious and they treat us as if I came to McDonalds, get younger enthusiastic staff not old retired men that have bad back, and hate their life for being there. All 3-4 of those old men are bad servers. I feel rushed each time and it s annoying that they try to upsell. Markquee has better customer service and food in Milton in my opinion

The lady maitre d was a sweetheart, very accommodating upon arrival. The ambiance was lovely we took lots of pictures on the swing. I started with and expresso martini which was very good. I had a hard time deciding what to order, and asked lots of questions, my challenge was I didnt find the pairings matched the proteins. I consulted the server who clearly didnt understand the menu, because he misinformed me about my selection and I ended up sending it back. I ate bread, they never asked me if Id like something else. I had a slice of my sons pizza, it was flavorful, but WET, limp soggy crust, I asked everyone how they liked their food, everyone said its ok, but Ive had better. Then the bill came, my lamb was taken off but there were multiple errors, double charges.. I definitely wouldnt go back. When you see a restaurant looking as beautiful as it was, authentic Italian, you expect superior quality. Either they got a new chef or the people who wrote reviewed saying the food was good are simply inexperienced... the food was not good. 10 ppl, the bill was about $850. We apps, dinner, cocktails, cappuccinos and dessert. The two pieces of calamari i had were perfectly cooked, the sauce was tasty, cappuccino was good and the Prosecco was great. Other than that definitely not worth it.

Our second time dining here with our toddler. Our first experience was great, with great food and attentive service. Unfortunately, our 2nd visit here was not the same. We had a reservation for Father s Day weekend. We only saw our server once the entire evening. After she took our order, she was not to be seen and we had ordered another drink which never came. The food was delicious but unfortunately the very slow service dampened the experience. Better service is encouraged, especially when dining with children.

Growing up in Milton, I always believed going to Pasqualinos was a treat for special occasions and I ve had great experiences in the past so that s why it s hard to write this review. The food came relatively fast, the presentation was beautiful and the pizza and salmon were well cooked but the agnolotti was severely undercooked to the point in which I couldn t get my fork through it. When I told the waitress this, she told me it was how it was supposed to be but she would check in the back. She didn t take my plate for a while and quite frankly I was a bit embarrassed that she just walked away. When she came back she took my plate away and said she would check with the chef. She then let me know nicely that another dish was being prepped which I appreciated. When my dish came out no cutlery was given to me and I had tried flagging down the waitress but it took a while for her to notice me. Once she did she apologized and gave me the cutlery (this was not the biggest deal since I knew she was giving bills to other customers so it might have slipped her mind). At this point I was eating alone bc my party had finished their meals. The waitress also never came to check on me and ask how it was after I got the second entree. The dish lacked salt and I would ve loved to have some pepper but she unfortunately never came around. The pasta dish also had a separated butter sauce that was extremely heavy. When ordering dessert, the wait was incredibly long (we waited about 25 minutes) for a pre-made chocolate torte. When we asked for a take out box, the waitress had thrown out all the fruit and the ice cream which was unfortunate bc we were going to eat it right after we left since we were on a time crunch. Overall, the experience was not terrible but for the price you re paying, you d expect a lot more and at the least, delicious food. Considering the other options in Milton and comparing food quality vs bang for buck, there are definitely better options.

On March 23rd, we had reservations for 8 o clock! When we arrived we were told no table and they sat us at the bar. We then got seated at 8:48, to only have the waitress denying us bread, and asking if we were Italian, not sure what that has to do with anything! She proceeded to tell us she couldn t give us bread u too we ordered. We were so rushed and so out of place. This was our friends 50th birthday, celebrating her. We ordered our food, then we got bread at 9:12pm, our food came out at 9:48 making it so late to eat. We are women that don t eat heavy food that late. The waitress was rude, rushing us, and making It seems we ve never been there. We always go to this restaurant not sure if they were over busy and if so why did they take our reservation. I mean there was only 3 of us and not 10. I would always go here, but this experience will be the first and last . I will not go there anymore. Thank you

Loved the pasta and pizza, also liked the wine. Good decor but service sucks. Servers arent friendly and kind of snooty. Came a couple times with different groups, both times the service changed the vibe of the outing and didnt reflect the best on me when I brought family or friends to milton for dinner with me. Youre always left waiting when you walk in, even if you have a reservation because there is no reception or greeter by the door, and they dont come to seat you when they see you or a group (or a line of different patrons) waiting. Also pretty expensive for the experience. Would still come more often if the service wasnt so cold and frustrating. Remains a place just with potential for now.

Make sure if you re ordering takeout that you pay by debit or bring exact change. Got a pizza was ~$23.40 (I wouldn t know exactly because he never gave me the receipt) paid $40; he gave me $15 change. As I waited there, he asked me if there was anything else. To which I said I thought it was $23 something. He replied, we don t have change . Overall just a weird interaction. If it was my restaurant I would ve just given the $20 back and said we don t have change but that s just me.

We went there with a group of seniors. The food was fine but its overpriced for what it is. Unfortunately they ran out of tiramisu at 7pm, so we couldnt have any. The back entrance is not accessible as there are stairs. The front entrance has a ramp but there is no parking so you have to walk there if you cant take the stairs. Also there are no accessible push buttons for the doors, which makes it hard for seniors to go through with walkers and wheelchairs, as they have double doors. The service is a little slower than what I would expect for the price.

Came here maybe a year ago with a buddy as we were shopping for cars and had to wait a bit for the next one but were hungry. It was non peak hour like 3pm. I think I had salmon and he had the chicken. Pretty sure it was a new chef or chef in training who actually burnt the chicken, so the kind owner said he cannot serve the chicken because it was burnt and will be remade. He was so kind and apologetic, and thw most important thing, sincere. He served us so much bread maybe 7-8 times and said he had to cut us off or else we wouldnt be able to eat the entrees. The entrees did show up after about an hour, which is a bit ridiculous, but the bread was good, we werent in a rush, and we still ended up seeing the car. The food was also superb, and we left a good tip. I would recommend coming during regular hours, but all in all, they made a bad experience good. I ll need to come here again.

We just dined at Pasqualino s for the first time. The food was average. We ordered Negroni s to start and they were delicious (yet quite pricey at $18 each). They have an impressive wine list. We started with the Fried Calamari, which were good. The Agnoletti alla zucca were ok, the chestnuts seemed very similar to those you purchase pre-cooked at the grocery store (not appetizing). The pasta dough was good, just didn t like the sauce and chestnuts. We came to try the pizza it was okay too. Seemed as though they torched the crust or put it under a broiler and the fior di latte cheese was hard (we took it off). I consider myself a fair critic, and honestly, for the price, I didn t love it. There are other Italian restaurants in Halton, Oakville which are more authentic and higher quality for this price. To add, bottled water was $8. Our server was great. The service was good. Atmosphere was ok. Seemed a bit crowded with tables very close to each other. As an Italian who frequently travels back to Italy this is far from what we are accustomed to in Italy.

We have been here many times. The food is always amazing. Sometimes service can be a bit off but everyone has a bad day and they ALWAYS make things right in the end which is why we always come back!! It can be quite loud in there so be prepared. I love the fact that they never rush you!! Cant wait to come back again!!! Their pizzas and pastas are amazing!!

Super disappointed. I came two years ago with my husband and had a lovely meal. We came on valentines evening for dinner this year with our family of 5, and I was so disappointed. The food was VERY salty for all of us, and two of us left feeling nauseous after both ordering the fish. Unfortunately this is not the quality or taste that we remembered. Steaks were way over cooked (well done when ordered medium rare for both at our table that ordered the steak). The salt was so strong for all of our dishes that I actually suggested to my husband that perhaps the cook s salt shaker was broken or something. How can someone mess up so badly and dump so much salt on everyone s dishes? Yikes

This was our first time dining here. Made a reservation for 730pm. The place was packed. We were shown our table promptly. We were seated very close to neighbouring tables on either side of us. No where to put my purse. Sat with my purse on my lap the entire time. Could listen to neighbouring conversations with ease. The noise level and lack of personal space and intimacy was very uncomfortable. Waiter came and took our order. We only learned after the fact that there specials which we were not told about. Overheard the waiter telling another table about the specials. Appetizers arrived, but still no drinks on our table that we had ordered. Baked Brie was greasy and lukewarm. I didnt eat it. Tortellini soup was just OK. Finally recd our drinks, after asked about them. Main courses arrived, just ok pasta, nothing to rave about. Expensive, but lack luster. Hubby wanted a taste of sweet, Creme Brule, just ordinary. Waiter dropped the dessert spoons on our table while keeping his back to us and chatting with the next table. Didnt appreciate your back, nor butt against our table. For a $200+ dinner bill, we just expected a little better, quieter atmosphere and better service and food. Sooooo disappointing, certainly wont be back. If you want to dine in an expensive, loud, cramped, cafeteria like atmosphere, this is YOUR place. Saw, ate, very little and left $200+ later.

We went there for dinner on a warm Saturday evening. The place was very cold from cranked up air conditioning. We pointed it out to the waiter, but nothing was done about it. I had to go back to the car and get a jacket to wear inside. My friend kept complaining about the cold temperature and a draft, during the whole dinner. The starter salad was great, however the bread brought with it had a long black hair in it. Again we pointed it out to the waiter and had another (hopefully) plate of bread brought to us. The main entree - duck in cherry sauce was good, but the vegetables were cold. The dessert was chocolate cake, it was very heavy and sweet and despite sharing it, we could not finish it. The place has a great, elegant ambiance. I think more should have been done when we found long black hair in the bread and to make sure the whole entree is hot when served to the customer. The place does not need to be freezing cold on a beautiful summer night. I would not go back.

Attended this fine dining establishment which was far from fine. The food ( when it came) was amazing. The salmon was absolutely perfect and had me thinking of it in my quiet moments at home. The atmosphere was beautiful and aestically pleasing. Unfortunately though, the service was horrid. I attended with a large group where the menu was fixed however from the salad to the main meal, we had to wait 1.5hrs. The restaurant wasnt overly busy, yet we had to constantly call on the servers for water and bread. Patrons who arrived after us, were seated, served and left before we even received our soup/salad. The server rudily would reach over to pick up plates without excusing himself and lacked personability. In a post COVID-19 world, favourable customer service seems to be a thing of the past and I am highly dissapointed in my experience at Pasqualino and will not be back. I work too hard to be insulted by underserved treatment.

This is a true Gem in the Town of Milton. Stylish and beautiful Italian Restaurant serving delicious entrees that are made fresh from scratch . Every mouthful is full of flavor, appealing to all the tastebuds and very satisfying. The service was excellent, and even though they were busy, we never felt unattended. Our server was always coming around to keep us updated and making sure we were okay. Our table was upgraded to the best one available due to a cancelation, and that instantly set up what turned out to be an amazing experience. We will be back soon! Thank you!

With a reservation, you can request semi-private dining in their wine cellar. Intimate, quieter, and with very attentive yet non-intrusive service from a dedicated and very knowledgeable senior waiter. Not cheap by any measure, but definitely worth it for a special occasion. Vegetarian options: Our daughter and son-in-law are vegetarian and both found plenty of options on the menu. Parking: Parking is available onsite as well as nearby in a municipal parking lot, plus plenty of on-street parking. Kid-friendliness: They will customize / personalize to your Kids tastes. Our grandson wanted pasta with a plain tomato sauce, and wanted to try a clam.

Omg this place was absolutely delightful. Came here for our anniversary cuz a friend recommended it and we loved every second! Sat on their patio (which is hands down the cutest patio ever) and our server was super lovely, friendly, attentive, and experienced. We got some bread and olive oil/balsamic to start off with while we waited for our food. Got the Burrata Agro Dolce to start. They were out of figs but replaced it with blackberries and it was still absolutely delicious. My husband got the Swordfish steak (which was a special that night) and I got the Petto DAnatra Arrosto (roasted duck breast) and we were both blown away by how good the dishes were. The duck breast was perfectly cooked with a crispy skin, complemented by a port sauce and sweet bursts of cherries. Never had swordfish before but this steak was so moist and meaty with the perfect herby-buttery sauce accompaniment. And both dishes came with a side of roasted veg which was just *chefs kiss* And after it, we ofc had to try the tiramisu. And it was the perfect dessert. Classic, traditionally made tiramisu, that is super light and fluffy - the ladyfingers were soaked just the right amount and the mascarpone tasted like you were eating a cloud! The perfect end to our meal. I recommend anyone to go for a fine dining experience and I want to come back to try all their menu items!!! Parking: They have some parking spaces right behind the restaurant and while space is limited, there are always people coming and going so youre likely to find a spot if you wait for a bit...but there is also some street parking on the roads nearby

Incredible experience dining here Saturday early evening. We had reservations at 6 and it was pretty empty. By the time we were leaving it was super packed!!! So it helps to come early. Omg the food was unbelievable. Pictured Is the gnocci bolognese, a pizza that was garlic and spicy (forgot name) and forgot name of other pasta dish but was stuffed with ricotta cheese in a lemon butter sauce. You could taste what a difference with such high quality pasta. Also really appreciated our waitress was not pushy at all and so friendly. Would def come back!

One of the most disappointing experience in service I have ever seen. Hosted some friends over for a nice get together only to be disappointed by the most inadequate service at a proper dine in restaurant. We all ordered pizzas, we were all craving Brick oven pizzas, which were mediocre at best. The place is very nice, ambiance is nice and quiet and seating is comfortable and nicely separated. The service... was just way below average, there was an individual in a suit and hat, who either was not supposed to be there or didnt mean to be. His attendance on our table was just simply rude and short. As soon as we sat down, he barged at the table and asked if we were ready to order, he started rushing everyone to place the order, as soon as one person relayed what they wanted, he snatched the menus and moved on to the next. Did not give us time to make proper meal selections, made no recommendations, did not explain anything on the menu, didnt ask anyone if we had any questions about the menu, didnt ask for any appetizers prior to ordering main course, overall it was a rushed experience which felt very uncomfortable and unwelcoming. Will not be recommending or returning.

Weve been here before and even hosted a party here once and always had a great experience. It has been awhile now and got the chance to go back and it is still some of the best food you could find. We had a pizza, pasta, veal limone, coffee and desserts. And all of it was AMAZING! The veal was so good that we were still talking about it for days after our visit! The restaurant is nicely decorated and it just feels really good to spend a few hours there having a great time and enjoying the best food. Also, they sell their tomato sauce in jars and other delicious take home items. I think thats a great idea and ideal for gifting too!

We were invited by some friends that are regulars. I liked the atmosphere except where we sat, the headlights from cars parking on the lot, was a direct shot clear to my face. Also very breezy next to the door. The food was good. Everyone raved about their dinners. I ordered pasta. It was good but not what I expected for the price. The salad was the best of the meal. We were a party of 4, I was the only one that didnt drink wine nor asked if I wanted anything else so when I ordered my dinner, I asked for peppermint herbal tea, never received tea or anything other than the water already on the table, not even a refill of that. The man serving our food constantly sniffing his nose while fixing my friends plate. We were invited by friends to dine but I offered to pay for the meal to celebrate their wedding anniversary. I couldnt believe the cost as most ordered the specials (no price mentioned) and I couldnt even get a hot cup of herbal tea. Cost for 4 people was well over $400

We stopped here for an early dinner. We were visiting from out of town. The place is very inviting and comfortable however the service was dissapointing based on the price we paid $300.00 for three people. First of all when we arrived it wasn t busy yet we had to remind our server twice to refill our drinks. There was a long hair in my salad and I noticed that the kitchen staff do not wear hair nets. As soon as it got busy the owners or managers and the staff proceeded to service the new customers (perhaps they were friends) because even the only bartender they had a the time, came to greet these particular groups - there were hugs and a special welcoming but the issue was that they completely ignored at least our table where we had to wait half an hour for our espresso. I could tell the bartender proceeded to prepare drinks for the new customers instead of servicing the tables that were already there. It is an organized chaos and lacks finesse in how the service customers that spend big money on their establishment. You may have good reviews but the service is dissapointing.
