Review from Jannies L.

My husband took me here for our first "married" valentines =D I know I live in Brampton, but for some reasons I never find myself eating out in Brampton. He made a great choice since it was local (down the street) and definitely not a East Side Marios.
But since we went on Valentines, it was a set menu we would only order off of, and my brother whose been there has told me the normal menu is much better and bigger.
We ordered 2 glasses of white, their Riesling was actually really good, my husband ordered it and I finished it since my chardonnay was only ok. lol
We had the mussels to share (yummy and good size portion) $10
Bread basket was yummy so we asked for extra to dip in the mussels.
I had the Pasta Bellisimo $18.00
tagliatelle, portobello mushrooms, garlic, fresh herbs in a sherry
oyster cream sauce topped w/ grilled steak: YUM (big portion, I saved half for lunch which was still yummy on day 2)
My husband had the Mushroom Agnolotti $14.00
mushroom stuffed agnolotti, roasted garlic, sun dried tomatoes and asparagus in a white wine cream sauce. (Small portion, I know he's a big guy but also looked small to me and I'm all of 5 feet tall)
Funny story because he normally "loves" veal/chicken Parmigiana which the couple both had next to us and it was a huge skillet covered with pasta and meat Mmmm Next time we will get that for sure.
Brampton is known for many family owed Italian restaurant and i have to say Cannellis has got me itching to try the other ones.
The only negative thing was the service, although everyone was super nice, maybe cause it was valentines it was kind of hard to have our plates cleared and the bill delivered. hope this isn't the case normally. -

Canelli's is probably one of the best restaurants in Brampton. Family run on the site of what used to be Queen's Pizzeria (run by the same family), they have a typical Italian menu, executed really nicely.
The service is always attentive and friendly, and the turnover has been quite low over the years, which I take as a good sign in a restaurant.
They do a nice caesar salad with proper anchovy dressing and nice shaved parm, we've been pretty happy with most of their appetizers, too, though we inevitably end up back at the Calamari. Terribly cliché, I know, but tasty is tasty.
Their pizzas are good, but I inevitably end up with one of their pastas. If it's your first time and a rich pasta doesn't scare you, I heartily recommend the Pasta Bellisimo. Nice tagliatelle tossed in a lobster sherry cream sauce with mushrooms and (optionally) skirt steak. Non-traditional, very rich, but delicious. The spaghetti vongole (clams) was going to feature in this review, but they've recently taken it off the menu, sadly. The Penne alla Vodka is another star (pancetta and mushrooms were made to be in my mouth together.)
Reasonable prices all round (the Folonari Valpolicella is quite a palatable house red) and a decent cappuccino if you're into such things. Not a legend of the culinary world, but great, reliable, comfortable. -

What a great and unexpected find! the chef really knows what he is doing. From wine suggestions to food pairings, they really know their stuff. I was second guessnig between alfredo and arrabiata, he put together a rose sauce for me which was divine! We thought we'd have leftovers but...it was too good not to finish :)
Definitely worth repeating. -

Went here with my wife for our Valentine's dinner. They had a set menu for the evening which was no problem. For a valentine's dinner, it wasn't loud or overcrowded as some restaurants can feel on holidays or weekends. Decent wine selection and good food set this place apart from many other spots in Brampton.
