" Had a lovely lunch with friends at Barbarella! The pasta was cooked to perfection and the ambience was very relaxing. However, the service could have been a bit faster. We enjoyed the drinks and appetizers while waiting for our mains. I'd return for the food, but I'm hoping for quicker service next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Barbarella for a work event, and it did not disappoint! The setup was lovely, making it a great spot for a corporate gathering. Food was delicious and really impressed our guests. The service was a bit chaotic due to the number of people, but the staff handled it well, and we still enjoyed the night. " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow, Barbarella, what a gem! I recently dined here with my friends, and it was an impressive outing. We tried a variety of dishes, from the calamari to the pizza, and everything was fresh and flavorful. Our server was attentive without being overbearing, which made the experience even more enjoyable. Can't wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" Barbarella isn’t just any Italian restaurant; it’s an experience. The food pairs beautifully with the charming atmosphere. The staff was attentive and knowledgeable, helping us navigate the menu. Don't miss out on the seasonal specials, they’re always a treat! " (*Curated Review*)

" Barbarella is my go-to place in Calgary for Italian! I've been here multiple times, and each visit has been fantastic. The staff is friendly, and they create a welcoming atmosphere. I especially love the thin-crust pizzas and their homemade pasta—so fresh! Only downside is that it can get a bit loud during peak hours, but that just adds to the lively vibe! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had the worst experience here. The food was mediocre at best. My pasta dish was bland and undercooked. The service was not attentive at all. Very disappointing considering the hype. I don't think I’ll be returning any time soon. " (*Curated Review*)
