Puoi dire italiano? Always good, always hopping. Reservations recommended. Located steps away from the waterfront. It can be a little loud at times. For a quieter & more upscale experience, try La Frasca Spring Garden.

Great for takeout of a quick sit in, this is not far from your space. The smoked beef Brisket sandwich and poutine with their own gravy does it for me every time. Menu also offers BBQ chicken, Pork, ribs etc

Parks & Nature
Close to 16 Acres of victorian gardens placed smack downtown! Established in and around 1887. Grab an ice Cream at the canteen in the Gardens and check out a bands playing in the summer months at the bandstand. Or just check out what the Ducks and Geese are up too. These Gardens are of the few remaining victorian gardens around these days. Enjoyed by all. No hills here!

You can enter point Pleasant Park from numerous entrances. Easy trails and roadways for an easy stroll. I have been there far too many times, so getting lost would not cross my mind. The whole park is beautiful. I would just explore and enjoy. It is pretty hard to get lost.
