A prominent 3500sf Italian restaurant, located on a major street in downtown Victoria. It consists of a main dining area with seating for upwards of 100 people, an intimate dining sala, a patio within the central space of the Atrium (the host building), a large commercial kitchen with a brick oven, and other areas for office and staff, including a storage mezzanine. Finishes include stained fir and tile floors, custom glass display shelving, exposed ceilings, and cedar soffits that extend from the exterior. A feature bulkhead over the 22' long bar frames a 'chandelier' of spherical glass pendants. The bar front and bulkhead were painted by artist Bill Porteous.
