Mappatura Bistro - Halifax

Little hidden gem in Hali. Highly recommended! Food was amazing and the service and atmosphere were superb.

This had been on our list for a long time and was delicious and worth the hype! Lovely service and atmosphere though a tad bit too loud once it filled up, I felt like I had to yell to talk to my partner.Both of our pasta dishes were amazing, and my husbands affogato was delightful.I had the lemon tart and would say it was the only disappointment of the meal! When I broke the tart shell the entire filling came streaming out and was soupy and disjointed, I don't know if this is how it's supposed to be or if perhaps the filling just didn't set right this time :

Everything was delicious! We really struggled with what to order because it all seemed great, so our waitress gave recommendations and we trusted her—and are so glad we did! Aside from the tasty food, everyone there was so kind and it’s super cute inside. Highly recommend!Kid-friendliness: They had a booster seat that worked for our one year old, and everyone there was so sweet to her!

We tried this spot on the advice of a local. Home made pasta, sublime sauces, and a martini that made all right with our troubled world. Take a walk through the public gardens on your way to eat. You will feel better about the prospects for our future. The mussels were a standout, and I sweet-talked the ingredients out of the staff.

The food was incredible tonight. Perfectly shucked oysters, cornish hen with the crispiest skin, perfect rich creamy scallop pasta with awesome noodles. Probably my 20th visit but always impresses.
