IL BUCO REVIEWS
Heard lots about this restaurant, finally made a reservation to try it out. We started with the roasted garlic appetizer and ordered from their specials menu. I went with the manicotti with broccoli and bacon, my friend got the orecchiette with rapini and sausage. Both came in huge portions and everything was extremely flavourful. The restaurant also has a nice wine selection, we enjoyed the J Lohr Seven Oaks Cab Sauv and finished the evening with the raspberry tartufo. Overall it was an amazing experience, the restaurant definitely lives up to its reputation - everything we had exceeded our expectations, excited to go back and continue to explore the menu.
Had a wonderful birthday lunch on the patio and Sophie was an awesome server full of kindness, humour and skill. We so appreciated our beautiful lunch and look forward to coming again.
The food was great. I had their veal for dinner gorgeous taste fabulous presentation. The atmosphere was nice, especially in summer you can sit outside in the patio. Unfortunately you can’t book patio tables, it uses first come first serve basis system. The waiter was helpful in introducing specials menus. I will definitely return to try other menus.

147 Italian Cuisine is a classic and sophisticated Italian restaurant in the heart of downtown Barrie. Chef Rick Antonucci has over 30 years of cooking experience. After years of working in the Toronto and Vaughan area, it was time for a change. A few years ago he heard that 147 was looking for a chef and went looking. As soon as he walked in the door he felt good. He loved the rustic vibe of the dining room with its exposed brick walls, hardwood floors, and open kitchen. His cooking style is traditional and popular Italian home cooking, basically a mix of old and new. His gastronomic philosophy is simple and essential, focusing on fresh and quality ingredients. 147 offers beautiful views of Barrie's picturesque waterfront, a table for over 50 people and a full bar area. The experienced chef prepares each dish from high-quality ingredients.147 Italian Cuisine offers catering services for all occasions such as family reunions, birthday parties and more.

147 RISTORANTE REVIEWS
We had our daughters Baptism at 147- and it was the most amazing day thanks to Colleen and her team. They were so attentive to our needs, and to our guests. The food was yummy and drinks even better. Simply perfection.. Thank you to 147 and Colleen.
Went for our first time on a whim and it's a new favourite. Delicious breads, salmon, and pizza - plus very responsive wait staff.
Service was great, food was mediocre. Would return for the atmosphere & service.

THE ITALIAN EATERY REVIEWS
Our family loves this place. We get the frozen lasagnas every summer for the cottage weekend. This year we had their frozen meatballs and chicken parm as well. All fantastic. For the ride to the cottage we shared their prosciutto, arugula & sweet pepper sandwich (pictured below). It was DELICIOUS. I will forever get this sandwich when we go by. Great atmosphere and very helpful staff. A beautiful store full of authentic Italian foods. Highly recommend.
Awesome meatball sandwich and spaghetti is to die for. The service is also amazing. You have to go here.
Best Marinara sauce! Super casual atmosphere and very delicious, authentic Italian food experience. Very reasonably priced foods. Order from the counter, and sit down. Food will be brought out to you. Consider leaving a tip as the food will be served and you are cleaned up after. We enjoyed the Calamari, pizza and stromboli. There is a nice selection of Italian baked goods including cannoli and zeppole among other treats. We will definitely try the gelato bar in the future. The eatery has a market attached with a wide selection of frozen ready made foods, and other specialty Italian grocery selections.
