Da Maurizio Dining Room

$$$, Italian, Halifax

User Rating: ***** 4.8

Fodor's Review:

Subdued lighting, elegant decor, and fresh flowers on the tables make dining a lovely experience at this Italian restaurant. Chef Maurizio's creativity and attention to detail create meals that are both impressive and satisfying and make him a local legend. The excellent seared foie gras is always on the menu, as are the scampi, from the coast of Iceland, which are crowned with a heavenly garlic-and-cognac sauce. For dessert, the zabaglione is likely to leave you weak. The specialty wine list tops out at $325, but nice bottles can still be had for $35.

Outstanding!

Posted by Andrew from Maine on 3/2/06

Attentive service and stylish but comfortable atmosphere were wonderful, but the food is what really made this stand out. I had three courses and each was memorably excellent. Price range listed by Fodor's is a little understated. Entrees were all about $30 (none near $20), but at least one appetizer ($10 +/- each) is a must for a full meal.
