A dish you’ve known and loved for years, refined, reimagined, and elevated.

Our signature veal meatballs, gently simmered in rich tomato sugo, now finished with a velvety smoked parmesan cream that adds depth, warmth, and a subtle, lingering indulgence.

Golden hour, a glass in hand, and the kind of night you don’t want to end.

Join us as we kick off patio season with our annual Patio Party—an evening designed to wander, sip, and indulge. Think flowing stations of wine, beer, and cocktails… fresh, hand-pulled mozzarella made right before you… and beautiful bites waiting around every corner.

The patio is calling – sunlight filtering in, music drifting from the DJ, and that unmistakable energy of a perfect night just beginning.

Tickets are available now. Come celebrate the start of something special. The link for tickets can be found on our website here: https://bonterra.ca/2026/04/26th-annual-patio-party/

Twinkle lights overhead.
Country playing just loud enough.

A table full of people you actually want to be with.

What snow! We're thinking about Shania Twain songs and sipping cold wine under the patio lights. When our city comes alive, the wine's flowing, and there are cowboys aplenty.
