Reviews for Padrino's Italian Ristorante in Grande Prairie, AB

Food was excellent and service was top notch. We got stuck behind a large Dinner party and waited closer to one hour for our... meals but still very enjoyable. It?s only open from 5-9pm so reserve a table and be ready for a excellent meal. Read more

Very nice place, we had a wonderful time with our team. The food was delicious the Ravioli was my favourite, I don?t have the... pic of it though ???? Read more

We were seated and forgotten. The server did apologize before we mentioned it, and was very sorry, but it wasn't too busy so we... couldn't see how that happened. The brushetta was ok, but not so good. We've made better at home and we're not chefs. The steakwas over cooked to very well done. It was stricken from the bill, but over the course of the meal became like cardboard so itwasn't eaten. They did offer to redo it, but we decided not to send food back. The vegetables were hard and undercooked forboth dishes. My dish was rack of lamb. Again, no flavor, but the cheese it cane with did give it some flavor. I took half home, so I'll season it. We were offered a complimentary desert for our anniversary dinner, which was nice, but I'm sad to say, itwasn't good. We shared the slice of ice cream cake but didnt finish. We expected a great meal considering the prices and fairlysolid reviews, but unfortunately the chef was off his game and served an undercooked, overcooked flavorless dinner for two. Ihonestly get no pleasure posting this review, considering how nice our server was. Read more

We arrived less than an hour before closing and had prompt service. Our food was amazing (the lasagna was some of the best I?ve... ever had). The restaurant is attached a hotel but has a more upscale intimate ambiance for a great date night. The only thingstopping this from being a five star review is the cocktails. We ordered to Blue Hawaiian and the Red Devil which both didn?ttaste great. I would definitely return for the food but skip the cocktails next time. Read more

Very nice and quiet Italian restaurant. The atmosphere is relaxing and the scenery I could see was appealing. I had the veal... dish with pasta and vegetables and a side of asparagus. The food was terrific, especially the veal! Probably the best vealI've ever experienced. The prices are also very reasonable for the outstanding quality. I'd much rather pay $30 on anexquisite dish here than $30 on a half decent burger at some other places... Read more

Amazing food and staff! Jim and Rene are both amazing people. They are very friendly and welcoming. My first night at the... restaurant was so good I had to come back for another dinner the following day. The food Jim recommended was the lamb. It trulymelts in your mouth. The prime rib was just as good the second night. The chefs really know how to make good food. When I am intown I know where I will be staying and having dinner!! Read more

I would not recommend there take out service at all!! The Bruschetta app for 14$ looked like a take out from safeway, it was... quite bland just disappointing. The ?garlic bread? was the saddest part considering it was coming from a real ?Italian?restaurant I thought it would be better. The spaghetti w/bison meat balls was okay, but for 25$ 4 meatballs that look like theycome out of the frozen section at the grocery store is pretty bad. This is the first meal I have ever wanted to return for arefund but after working a 14 hour day, you will just about eat anything. I would say go to Safeway and save your money! Read more

Great food and great service at this hidden gem. It has been our favourite date night restaurant for many years! It's quiet and... consistent, with nice, fresh ingredients. Our go-to choices are Scallopine Al Basilico, Filetto Di Manzo, and the DessertMedley, with a bottle of St. Francis Merlot. Highly recommend Padrino's ? Read more
