The food here is very good. I visited two days in a row. The bread bar is a nice touch with different flavoured butter spreads.

Stopped in here on my last night in Calgary during a biz trip. I wish I had known it was so close earlier! I was really tired and just wanted something better than hotel food. I was seated promptly, drink order taken and I was shown to the breast bar. I was a bit disappointed to see only butter, no balsamic and EVOO. That is the bomb to have with bread! Nevertheless the garlic butter and pesto butter where the ones I had on chewy bread- delicious. I ordered the Linguine Alfredo sans optional grilled chicken breast. Oh man so good. So, so good. Decadent. Creamy. Cheese gratin on top. Was really great. I'd come back for sure.

Enjoyed the bread and wine as well as the appetizers. Not a fan of the pizza, it didn’t really have the flavor that should’ve been on authentic Italian food. The cannelloni on the other hand was done well.The service was too lax. We had to get up to find our server a few times.

Pacini is one of our most favourite Italian restaurants in Calgary. The "all-you-can-eat" bread bar, where you butter and grill a wide selection of bread, is the feature attraction. The "crusted cod with linguine" is absolutely delicious, as all of the menu selections are. We have been there many times and have always had fantastic experience. Very nice atmosphere, friendly service and highest food quality.

This place has a very nice atmosphere and the service. Nice unique thing about this place is that they have a bread bard with different breads, butter spreads and as well as a grill to toast it. Unfortunately the food is not up to the level of the service and atmosphere, and its priced at that level too. I would give the food a 2.5/5 and everything else at 4/5.

I was in the area and I happen to just stumble across this place. This place has amazing food. Absolutely awesome service! When I first walked in I thought it was going to be really expensive because it looks high-end. But the prices are decent and you get a whole lot of food! I left out of this place with a food coma hahaha! I will be back!

Dinner for 4. I arrived at restaurant, waited 15 minutes for hostess to seat us. After being seated waited another 15 minutes for our waitress to come with water. Proceeded to the bread bar, great selections of 6 different kinds of bread and 4 different variety of butter spreads. Grill was nice and hot to toast. Food was OK, I would go back for the bread bar but not the same entrees that I ordered. Service: 2/5Food: 3/5Pricing: $$$

Spacious, comfortable, excellent service (prompt and friendly), bread bar was great and a generous amount of parmigiana fries. Meat lovers pizza was delicious though too light on meat to deserve it's name.

Quick service. Decently good food, with good portions. The best thing about this place is the bread bar where you can grill your own bread. You can access the bread bar free with an order of a main dish. 4-5 different types of breads and butter (the pesto, garlic-herb and sundried tomatoes butters were tasty).

Maybe it was the time we went at, but the server did not seem interested in subsituting the order to no chicken, as i informed him that i was a Vegetarian and we did say we were not interested in the drink since my partner was sober and we told him that! but they gave it to us anyways. The table next to us was happy to recieve our drinks so it worked out that way. The bread bar was okay, i enjoyed that very much so thank you for that:)

Extremely disappointed with Pacini’s. Before I say anything else the service was great and the server was very friendly. Restaurant itself is very clean and kept well.Other than that, very disappointing.We used to love coming to Pacinis for the 10$ full size pizza happy hour special. We were very sad to see that the happy hour menu had changed. The Meatballs on the happy hour menu were not good at all. Tasted like frozen bagged meatballs, and were very bland and were lukewarm at best.The pizza special had changed, I just feel like you guys really Cheap’d out on the pizza. Had asked for the mushroom truffle. Could barley taste the truffle. Also instead of the full size for 10$ it’s 5$ for mini pizzas and you only have two pizzas to choose from.I don’t think I’ll ever come back, very sad to say that. This was a great late night eat spot.

These guys have seemed to have changed the menu as well as the food! For an Italian Restaurant they make pizza that has no flavour. The bread bar is fun concept.

The service don't get me wrong for only 2 servers for the entire place they did amazing so not to take away from them. I will say that the food was ok. The bread bar they are known for was closed and their bread options was a white loaf of bread or a whole wheat losf of bread and rye bread. No mention of this being closed when we made our reservation. We go to order my 5 friends and my wife all order the seafood pasta. They are out of clams so they all says mussels and scallops extra which they did but then the plates had some mussels on some and barely any on the others. I had the meat pizza and by the time I finished it my stomach was so upset I was in the washroom for the rest of the night. I would not recommend this place after all I heard maybe when covid is gone and things go back to normal but their menu was very basic and the food was not great.

I would give this a 4.5 stars if I could. Went here for a nice dinner with the in-laws before they left on vacation. Great atmosphere in the resturant. The self service bread bar was awesome. They had gluten free options on most of the menu. The menu had a good variety and selection. I liked the food and it came out to 9rder and hot, but it wasn't life changing. A little slow coming out of the kitchen, but we weren't in any hurry so that didn't bother us. A great place to share good food and catch up. Will be back again for sure :)

I was skeptical at first due to this restaurants proximity to the Calgary airport. As well the fact the immediate surrounding area is mostly commercial distribution warehouses. Once inside you are pleasently surprised with a very modern decor. The staff was pleasent and efficient. The menu has many varieties of meal choices and surprisingly affordable. I have to mention I tried the House red wine and found it amazing. I would recommend this restaurant to travellers and locals.

If you love bread you will love this bread bar. It has many different kinds of breads as well as a few different butter spreads. The only criticism is during peak times the fire toaster can get dirty looking as different patrons have different toasting techniques. The pasta was good a variety to pick from. Pizza and pasta duo was great for those that make up their minds. We will be back. I'm in a wheelchair and the restaurant was accessible as well as the washroom.

A nice Italian restaurant with an all you can eat bread bar. The restaurant is out in the middle of nowhere, close to the airport. The food was exceptional, a tad pricey but worth it. I would recommend this place. I had the cod dish and substituted the linguine for penne.

We usually stop at this place either before flying out of Calgary or coming back. Its been perfect every time, service is good, portion size is just right, food quality is excellent, the bread bar is something every Italian restaurant should have. Its the best place near the airport that isn't fast food. Highly recommended.
