- SStaceyCalgary / Southern Alberta •1 review5.0Dined 1 day agoWe were a group of three and had the pasta with clams, gnocchi with mushrooms, truffle fries and Caesar salad. The was excellent, I highly recommend the gnocchi as it was some of the best I’ve ever had. Our server was very knowledgeable about the menu and gave great recommendations when asked. We will definitely return to try other menu items, the pizza looked amazing as well.More infoScarpetta Cucina ItalianaPrice: Moderate• Italian• Beltline•4.2
