" Trattoria Vesso quickly became my go-to place for Italian food in Halifax. Each dish is made with fresh, authentic ingredients, and that's reflected in the taste. The GF crust is amazing, and I often get compliments from fellow celiacs for their pizza offerings. The ambiance is cozy with a touch of Italy, creating the perfect setting for family dinners or date nights. The only complaint would be the somewhat limited drink menu, but the food makes up for it in spades! " (*Curated Review*)

" Disappointment took over when I visited Trattoria Vesso expecting great things. While I went in after seeing positive reviews, my experience was very different. The service was less than attentive during our meal, and my pizza arrived lukewarm and lacking in flavor. While the ambiance was lovely, I couldn't overlook the food quality that didn't match what I had anticipated based on the hype. I may try again in the future, but I hope for an improvement. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Trattoria Vesso during a recent trip to Halifax and was eager to try their offerings after reading so much about it. The service was friendly, but the wait for food was noticeably longer than expected. The meal itself was good, though I felt the pizza toppings could have been more generous—especially for the price point. Lastly, the atmosphere was pleasant, if a bit loud at times, making conversation difficult. " (*Curated Review*)

" What an experience at Trattoria Vesso! From the moment we walked in, greeted warmly, to the moment we left with happy bellies—it was a fantastic evening. The wood-fired pizza is a must-try; it was so light, crispy, and packed with flavor. I also loved the beet salad that had the perfect balance of sweet and savory. Our server was attentive but not intrusive, which I always appreciate. I’d recommend this dining spot to anyone looking for authentic tastes and a relaxing evening. Just be prepared for a wait during peak times; it's worth it! " (*Curated Review*)

" We visited on a Saturday night and were glad we made a reservation. The place was packed! Our server was friendly and attentive, guiding us through the menu. I went with their special of the day, which was a seafood pasta, and I’ve got to say, it was filled with fresh ingredients and bursting with flavor! The pizza my partner ordered was excellent as well. Can't say enough good things about this place, definitely planning to return! " (*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*)
