Sanremo Italian Bistro - St. Albert, Alberta

First time eating here. We love Italian food and this place is well worth trying. Great food with many gluten free options, very friendly and welcoming owner. Entirely reasonable food price for the quality by St Albert standards.

During Covid I and many others tipped very heavily to try and support the workers. Rather than be appreciated for the extra support it was intended to be, all this seemed to have done was drive up the expected tip. With the large increase in menu prices since then, and the expectation that minimum tip displayed is now 18% I almost never tip at all anymore. I was impressed enough to leave a tip here.

It also has a really nice atmosphere. Will definitely be back.

Absolutely stunning restaurant you’d never expect to find in St. Albert! As soon as I walked in, I was in awe at how beautifully decorated and intricate each table was, and how clean and tidy the place was. The server was kind, patient, and constantly checked in on us. The food was absolutely to die for, and at a very reasonable price! Arguably some of the best mushroom pasta I have ever had at any Italian restaurant. Kitchen staff also checked in on us, I’d assume one of the chefs, and made sure we enjoyed the food. Small check-ins like this make all the difference these days and truly made me feel welcome here. Not sure where to go for dinner for your next date night? This is where you should go!

What an incredible experience! It's rare and refreshing to find an establishment that not only delivers great food and service but also makes you feel truly valued and welcomed. That kind of hospitality—going out of their way to accommodate you on a busy night—shows the owner's passion for creating a memorable atmosphere for guests. It’s those small gestures, like remembering your name and finding you a spot, that transform a good meal into a great experience.

Building connections with locals at the bar and the personal touch from the owner really added to the charm. It's not just about the food; it’s about the overall warmth and care. Places like this are gems—definitely worth revisiting and recommending!

This place has amazing food. We will definitely be coming back. The house white wine with the chicken parmigiana was fantastic. Date night was a success. Thank you to Remo and his whole family for a wonderful experience. They treated us well for our first visit.

My friends and family surprised me for my birthday here. There was a bigger group of us that had come here. They did an amazing job accommodating the space for us. The service was above and beyond, the food came out fairly quick and was very delicious. The aura inside is very classy, would definitely check them out again to try their other dishes, highly recommend this place and especially if you are trying to come here on a special occasion, this place will make you leave fully satisfied!

Absolutely incredible! Every dish was 10/10, such a cozy family owned spot. Our server was super pleasant and the atmosphere is very warm. Definitely try the tiramisu!!
