Trattoria Italian Kitchen @ Kitsilano

Food:  3/5   Service:  4/5   Atmosphere:  4/5   Price:  Avg. $35/person

Finally I can start catching up some posts after my eye laser surgery!
We wanted to have a causal brunch on the weekend so we decided to check out Trattoria Italian Kitchen at Kitsilano on Saturday. 

Classic Italian Restaurant!

Brunch menu - good varieties and selections. 

Complimentary Tiramisu Bread & Mimosa

The bread was sweet and moist like vanilla sponge cake. 
My mimosa - no good!  Skip it.

The coffee flavor cream was soft and buttery; good match with the sweet bread. 
Something sweet to start off my brunch, I like it!

 Signature Benny @ $12.95

  English muffin, crispy pancetta, poached eggs, hollandaise, trattoria potatoes, greens

Egg benny is always my first choice on brunch menu and I do have high expectations after checking out some real good and delicious brunch spots.
The benny here was so-so.  I was kind of disappointed when it is one of the signature items.  
The crispy pancetta was good but the hollandaise sauce was bland and tasteless.

Seafood Salad @ $21.95
Hand-peeled shrimp, salmon, seared albacore tuna, green beans, watercress, basil, herb vinaigrette
Fresh and delicious!

 Spaghetti and Signature Meatballs@ $17.95
 The pasta was average but the meatballs was good!

 

Overall the food quality was okay but the flavors were not outstanding.  All servings were generous at reasonable price range.  I would say Trattoria is a casual brunch place to go with friends and family on the weekend but there are definitely some better choices in town compared with it.
