Meet the owner

Located on Centre Street north, next to the landmark Lina’s Italian Market, is an Italian restaurant that respects the feel and intention of Italian dining traditions. Scopa Neighbourhood Italian is not interested in playing on Italian cliches to sell its food, but instead embraces the heart of the culture. It serves hearty, warm portions of pasta, pizza, salad and rotisserie meats with local  twists.

Sitting in the wood panelled dining room that is both rustically comfortable and elegantly modern, general manager Tim Orimand says Scopa shares the Italian value of dining in a community atmosphere, making it a celebration of food that is simply prepared, but full of flavour. “We really take the philosophies and culture of Italy as our inspiration. In Italy, at a trattoria, a more casual restaurant, often you would know the owner. Staff would recognize you upon coming in and make you feel like part of their family.” That restaurateur’s outlook also extends to knowing suppliers and respecting the seasonal availability of produce to guide what goes on the menu.
