Lovely food, lovely place & a great owner who was very passionate about her food & service. Very much won me over, & since I do love great authentic Italian food I will definitely be back to try out their other offerings. Thank you Sylvia, it was a pleasure to meet you as well. =)

I really enjoyed the food. Had the spaghetti with meatballs. I liked that the meat was infused with the sauce flavor. Bruschetta was so nice and fresh. It was very good. And the garlic shrimp was also very tasty. The apps were shared with 4 others. Portion size would be average but I think depending on the eater they may want more apps for 5 people or if they are generally a big eater. I would say I eat on average or smaller now. Maybe people want more cuz the food was so flavorful and tasty! The waitress was friendly and helpful. The owner loves what she does and was so pleasant to deal with as well. We wk definitely be back. The brownie pistachio was also ordered at our table and it sure smelled awesome. The brownie was very tasty.

Italian charm with homemade goodness! This quaint hideaway in downtown Regina has delicious family recipes just like home! The bruschetta was fresh and light and the spaghetti and meatballs were just the way I like it with lean slow cooked meatballs in lots of sauce! Thank you Silvia for your kind hospitality and for sharing part of your family story with us! Excellent service, priced well with generous meals filled with Italian goodness!

Silvia’s Italian Café in Regina was a hit two years in a row now! Perfect restaurant to load up on carbs before GMS Queen City Marathon! Ordered bruschetta, pasta and tiramisu! Everything was homemade, fresh and delicious! Friendly service and the owner stopped by our table multiple times to check how everything was! The ambience was very nice, had a small town Italian Cafe like feeling to it! Will absolutely be returning next year for carb loading before QCM! And for all those runners out there... the pasta absolutely delivered on the results the next day!

Silvia’s place is so wonderful. Her and her grandson were there when we visited and she was so lovely to us. We learned about the family history of her restaurant. The recipes are her family’s and you can tell she cooks them all with love. Definitely recommend this place for a good and affordable meal. Made us feel right at home. The garlic shrimp was amazing and the house wine was awesome as well! It’s located in the legion so we almost missed it but it’s a quaint spot downstairs that local regulars love. We now know why!

We went for the good reviews but ultimately left disappointed. We felt very welcomed when we first came in to the restaurant. When our food came, we thought that the pasta sauce was great, however, the meat we had seemed overcooked and tough. We told the owner about our issue as we thought maybe something was wrong in the kitchen, only to be dismissed by the once warm and welcoming owner. Needless to say, it left us with a sour taste as she made us feel like it was somehow our fault that the food wasn t what we expected. As soon as we raised our concerns, she didn t come back to our table or offer any apologies for our bad experience. We weren t trying to be rude, just to be honest. We left the restaurant hungry and disappointed. We wouldn t even be leaving this review if the owner simply acknowledged our concerns and didn t make us feel bad for raising them.

Quaint little place. The menu is small, but that makes selecting a dish a lot easier. The quality of the food was top notch, and the service was above and beyond. We fueled up here the night before QCM, and it did the trick as we had great sleeps and plenty of energy the next morning.

September 22, 2024

What a complete waste of space this place is. The use Instagram to post their menus, which wont even load when you click on them. Must be run by a complete goof if they cant even set up a basic website where they show their menu.

Staying in Regina for work and this was highly rated for pasta. Ordered the Shrimp Olio. It was good but the portion size was very small. I could have ate another whole order easily.

Fantastic restaurant! Took a group of work colleagues out and was able to see some great pasta dishes. Their soup was amazing and meatballs are 10/10. We are told the soup was a family secret and I have to say, it s some of the best I ve ever had. The service is totally top notch as well, as the owners actually work in their own business and you can tell they totally care about quality in how the run the business and serve the food. This place is really a hidden gem. Also, their building is shared with another hall and does not look like a restaurant from the outside, you just walk down 1 set of stairs from the front door and then you will feel the Italy vibes and smells throughout! Simple and tasteful decor without trying to be pretentious. Give this place a try, it really was amazing!

It is small but wonderful place to experience good Italian food. Nothing spicy or over powering. Service is good and quick. It was my first time being here and I knew that I did not want to over eat to ensure I was still awake for the afternoon at work. It was a good thing. There was enough for me to take a small package of the spaghetti and meatballs to my husband to enjoy as well. He says it was good as well and wishes he was with me for lunch to have a plate for himself.

Nicola pop-up at Silvia s an exceptional experience: We were not prepared to be transported to a world of French-inspired cuisine thats nothing was short of extraordinary. From the first bite of Lovage Butter to the last heavenly taste of Pavlova, every dish on the menu left us in awe. The Ham Hock Terrine and Onion Tart Tatin were pure perfection, setting the tone for what was to come. The Seared Bavette Steak was a culinary masterpiece, cooked to perfection and bursting with flavor. The Tomato + Peach Salad and Charred Veg showcased the freshest ingredients, and the Spira Greens Salad was a refreshing symphony of greens. But let s talk about that Pavlova it was the ultimate showstopper. Topped with Rhubarb Raspberry curd, orange blossom chantilly, and pistachios, and a mint garnish, it was a symphony of flavors and textures that crowned the meal with a sweet, unforgettable flourish. The attention to detail in every dish was evident a labor of love that was evident with every bite. And to top it off, each course came with a wine pairing that elevated the experience to new heights. If youre ever lucky enough to attend one of these Nicola pop-ups, dont hesitate go! Your taste buds will be forever grateful. Nicola pop-up at Silvias is a culinary journey that you simply cant miss.

We had absolutely fantastic service and meals here! Our two toddlers were along with us, which can be a handful, but they made us feel as though we were coming to dine with family. My kids absolutely devoured the spaghetti and meatballs. I also highly recommend the shrimp aioli!

My friends and I popped in on a whim passing through on a trip out west. The food was amazing, the people wonderful and the whole place was oozing with charm. Dont be threatened by the basement location, the place is full of love. People of Regina you are sleeping on a gem if you arnt coming here every week.

Truly, the greatest dining experience I have had. Warm & cozy atmosphere, the friendliest staff I have ever come across, it truly felt like dining with your italian family. The perfect place to take that special someone! The food was exceptional, Meatballs melt in your mouth, sauce is rich and full.of flavour and the cheescake is the perfect way to garuntee a happy ending! Silvia, to you personally, thank you for welcoming in 4 weary travelers. The drive had been long and tiresome, and our dining experience was a fantastic revival of our spirits. We will return!

One of the best meals I have ever had. You could tell the food was made with love and this family really cares about you and your experience. It s amazing to see this place being run by only 3 people. They must work so hard and they should be beyond proud of what they do. When it was time to go, Sylvia even included extra noodles so my leftover sauce didn t go to waste so I could take it home. Such a kind, and caring woman. Made my year, highly recommend.

The food was incredible, well balanced flavour, and everything had a very refreshing taste. The ambience of the restaurant and the service made me enjoy the food so much more. I ve been travelling all over the place for a week, and the food I have been eating pales in comparison to Silvia s because they all lacked soul. Silvia has the Midas touch to turn seemingly simple and familiar recipes into a memorable meal.

The taste was good but its a little pricey, paid $15.50 tax in for a little 6 meatball sub with no sides. If they dropped the price $3-4 or included a side it would be 5 stars.

My Husband surprised my daughter and I with supper plans, had made reservations at Silvia s Italian Café and it was absolutely delicious!!! He had the ravioli, my daughter had Spaghetti and meatballs and I opted for the lasagna, each of our meals was perfect portion and you could tell they were homemade. The dessert of brownie and pistachio ice cream was to die for!! We highly suggest this local eatery. 8 tables, quiet atmosphere, and Silvia s upbeat attitude made the time enjoyable. Reservations are required. Her little cafe is located in the basement of the Legion on Cornwall St downtown

Charming ownership, creative and cute use of a challenging space. Perfect Old Fashioned cocktail and food well-presented, made with quality ingredients. Im afraid placing Breton crackers on a charcuterie board is a hard fail for me, but the other elements of the antipasta were wonderful; converted one at the table to olives, he insisted hes always hated them. Turns out theyre his new favorite thing.

I have been wanting to try out Silvia s Italian Café for a while now. Located on Cornwall Street in Regina (downtown close to the Cornwall Centre), and it did not disappoint. We were greeted warmly by Silvia herself. Our group of three started with some red wine for the ladies and a Peroni for myself. Grant was our server, and the service was impeccable. The menu is not large, but it brought back memories of our holiday in Italy. Fresh, home cooked dishes and smelled and tasted out of this world. My wife had the Lasagna, sister-in-law had the Four Cheese Ravioli with an added meatball, and I went with the Spagetti and Meatballs. Each dish accompanied with some garlic toast. All meals were fantastic. We finished with a cappuccino and shared the Brownie with Pistachio ice cream. The entire experience was amazing, we will be returning sooner than later.

Silvia and her husband have created the most precious environment. Not only is the food done to perfection (we had the white wine, caprese salad, spaghetti and meatballs, pastaschiutta, and cheesecake), their service is just amongst the best Ive seen. We stopped by while driving through saskatchewan on our cross country drive, and could not be happier with our pick. They were absolutely lovely and sent us off with so much care. The food has got a homemade feel to it and you just know how much love they put into it. This restaurant has only been around for a year, but theyve already got everything down pat. I will definitely be stopping here every single time I pass by regina. If you only have one meal in this province, let it be Silvias. Their attention to detail and care for their customers will ensure that you have a memorable experience and a fantastic night no matter the kind of day youve had
