Bistecca Italian Steakhouse Wine

>Came for supper here a few months ago. Never got around to reviewing it, But I see a few of the things I ate are no longer on the menu.  >We were a bigger group, So to start with the place/menu is quite conducive to larger groups.  The assaginni was perfect to pass around a few small plates and get everyone In the mood to eat along with some antipasti. Smoked salmon, Carpaccio, Calamari, Sausages, Prosciutto, Olives..... You get the idea. It was great. >Now that everyone was ready to eat, we ordered a healthy mix of everything they had to offer. Wild ragu gnocchi, Ribeye steak, Lamb shank, Duck, Bison cannelloni, The sorrentino pizza and 2 repeats. >I wont go over every dish but the star of...

Bistecca is one of our favorite dining spots. We often come here and have reached the point where we simply ask Chef Sonny Sung and his fantastic staff to create something special for us. After a particularly demanding week, both of us felt completely exhausted, making it hard to decide what to order when Debra, our server, came to take our order. I told her I was "brain dead" and couldn't make a decision if my life depended on it. Debra came to the rescue by bringing us a series of ASSAGGINI, or "little bites," that seemed to perfectly align with our preferences. The highlight was a special off-menu dish of beef short rib ravioli. It was a delightful, light meal that allowed us to relax o...

Reservation for dinner on route to concert at Commonwealth Stadium.<br/ Fairly impressed.<br/ Solid menu.<br/ Reasonable prices.<br/ Great ambiance.<br/ Service...well lets just say our server seemed...overwhelmed and perhaps a little confused.<br/ <br/ Their ' Little Tastes ' appi. options entices an 'I 'd like one of everything ' responce.<br/ I settled on the Calabrese Sausage, and the Grilled Scallops. Both quite good. Sauce with scalops I found to be on the very spicey side.<br/ One of my favorite things is thar they offer 'half orders ' of pasta. So naturally..I had to try two different pastas!<br/ House-made Bison Cannelloni, rich and delicious.<br/ Beef Short Rib Ravioli....AMAZING....

We went on a Tuesday evening, so the establishment wasn't overly busy. The staff were very attentive. We were seated immediately. Our server gave us an excellent rendition of the menu and the daily specials. Everything was done with the utmost courtesy and professionalism.The timing of our server was spot on for giving ample time to enjoy our cocktails, appetizers, the main course and dessert. Food was delicious; Pasta Main and the Pork Tenderloin were our Entree's at couldn't have been better!The offering of Cheese and a glass of wine as an after dinner delight rather than a calorie and sugar packed dessert was a really great option (Despite it being a great option we still went for the cal...

I can honestly say this was the best steak I have ever had. Tender perfection. The food was excellent and ample; we especially liked being able to combine small samplers of starters 'Assaggini ' little tastes. Another winner is the Beef Short Rib Ravioli. Our visit was especially enjoyable because, while there was light jazz music playing, we were not bombarded by kitchen noise or high ceiling 'clatter ' that seems to be the standard at newer, trend driven restaurants. The staff is well informed and very friendly and overall the restaurant is elegant yet relaxed.

Visiting Edmonton for business, my collegues took me out to dinner at Bistecca and I thoroughly enjoyed myself.  I had the bison steak and though it was perfect.  It always seems as if specialty meats are always better in Alberta than BC.  Suprising the prices here are quite reasonable for what they serve.  We also tried a number of appitizers and thought they were all great.  Overall a great dinner and great place to visit if you are in Edmonton for a short visit.

We had a wonderful dinner on Sunday evening. The interior of the restaurant is stunning. All the appetizers, steaks, and crepe dessert were delicious and beautifully presented. We enjoyed an excellent red wine served at the perfect slightly chilled temperature. It was a lovely touch. The staff were friendly and very helpful, and the maître d’ exhibited great experience and professionalism. Everything was well done! We will definitely return.

Nice atmosphere. Real table cloths. Steaks were great. Service was good. Only two baby potatoes a little chincy for an expensive dinner. I also don't like the stacked on top presentation Very 1992. Didn't like it then. <br/ Don't like it now. Other elements of the presentation were minimal. They succeed in reminding me of the steak placers of my youth. Over all, better then average. Not as good as Chop. Not as expensive either. <br/

I think I 've found my steak 'Go To ' place. My wife I visited for the first time, she had pizza salad, which she said was good and I had the Flat Iron Steak. The service was excellent and if my steak was any indication of their other steaks, I think I 've found my 'go to ' place for steak dinners!

This is my favorite restaurant in Edmonton. The service and food are top-notch. I've visited at least 20 times, and I'm consistently impressed. The Butternut Ravioli is outstanding, and their salads are always fresh and tasty.
