" Our visit to Trattoria Vesso was an absolute delight! We got a chance to try their specialty pizzas and I must say, they reminded me of my time in Italy. The wood-fired cooking adds such a depth of flavor that is hard to replicate. The service was prompt and attentive, exceeding our expectations. I truly appreciate the variety of options on the menu, especially the gluten-free selections. The only downside was the dessert—it could have been a bit more generous in size. Overall, a fantastic experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" I am in love with everything about Trattoria Vesso! From their delectable pizzas to the cozy atmosphere, it feels like a slice of Italy right in Halifax. The seafood pizza is a must-try if you hail from the ocean! Their portions are generous, and I always leave satisfied. Service was prompt, and the staff knew the menu inside and out. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for authentic Italian cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" Trattoria Vesso is truly a hidden gem in Halifax! The ambiance is inviting and warm with rustic decor. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. We opted for a variety of appetizers and shared pizzas—each dish burst with flavors that felt authentically Italian. Special shoutout to the arancini and the innovative butter chicken pizza! The only thing I would suggest is improving the portion size of the desserts; they were exquisite but too small. This is a restaurant we'll keep coming back to! " (*Curated Review*)

" Every time I visit Halifax, I make it a point to try Trattoria Vesso. The wood-fired pizzas always hit the spot! My friends and I split several dishes, and every single one was incredible. The funghi pizza with mushrooms was a standout for me, with flavors bursting in every bite. We also enjoyed the caprese salad which made for a refreshing start. My only critique would be how busy it gets—definitely recommend making reservations! " (*Curated Review*)

" My boyfriend and I dined here last week, and it was one of the best meals we’ve had in a while. The pizza had a crispy crust and the right mix of toppings—a true delight. Our server was quick and had great recommendations based on our preferences. The decor was charming and created a cozy ambiance, although at peak hours it did get a bit crowded. I’d recommend Trattoria Vesso to anyone who appreciates good Italian fare! " (*Curated Review*)

" Ah, such a charming spot! From the first bite of the pizza to the last drop of wine, everything was well executed at Trattoria Vesso. I went with the classic Margherita, which was simple but packed full of flavor. The atmosphere was buzzing, and the staff was genuinely friendly and welcoming, making it a memorable evening. I can’t wait to bring my friends next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was looking forward to dining at Trattoria Vesso based on the previous reviews, but as much as I wanted to love it, it was just an okay experience. The dishes I tried didn't have that punch of flavor I expected. The pizza felt lackluster, and the seating could be a bit more comfortable for long dinners. On a positive note, the staff was nice and attentive, which I appreciated. Just didn't live up to the excitement. " (*Curated Review*)
