It's a little of this, a little of that and a whole new take on Italian. Our story is simple. Everything we can make fresh daily, we do. Including our hand-stretched mozzarella (made-to-order every day between 5pm & 11pm), our pasta, our signature 1/2 lb meatballs, our dough, bread and desserts.

Trattoria Timone is more than just a restaurant, the food, the ambiance, the service, it’s a package deal, but more so there is so much history here and the family presence is what makes it special. Our head chef/owner has a Sardinian background and brings you cuisines from the Sardinian region, amongst other regions of Italy. From the bread, desserts, pastas and sauces, there are no preservatives and we even pick from our own garden when we can. When you visit Trattoria Timone, we want you to feel at home with the cuisine and service, giving you a memorable experience.We look forward to dining with you.

Hello! My name is The Mule Burlington. I love chef-inspired tacos, tequila drinks, good music (according to us), vegetarians, graffiti, vegans, mood lighting, queso, AND YOU!! Our kitchen is 100% nut and GLUTEN-FREE, and we are 100% serious about that. For the "Liquid Diet" sort of crowd. Our bartenders are equally happy to whip you up a hand-crafted creation or a classic cocktail. If you just want a shot of tequila we're into that too. Okay, that's enough chit-chat. Let's eat.

    Il Timone delivered it’s usual excellent service and the food was outstanding! Both my wife and I were impressed with both the quality and quantity of the food. The Penne Rustica was top notch and we have enough left for lunch today! This is our favourite restaurant and last night’s meal proved why once again! J & A McCarthy

    Wonderful experience as expected. The staff here are professional and caring. My daughter and I were back to fulfill a promise to my late wife to come back here before we left to go back to Ottawa. Last time my wife and I were there the manager (Jessie) had taken Jean’s story to his heart and treated us like family. This visit was very similar as Jessie was once again working when we came in. Food and service were once again excellent and Jessies kindness and generosity on behalf of the restaurant once again touched our hearts and provided some light on an otherwise sad and somber day. Thank you so much.

    A lovely outdoor covered seating area overlooking the Port Credit harbour. The food was delicious. I had the summer salad, which was beautifully plated, balanced nutritionally, and filling. My companion enjoyed the gnocchi, and took half home to her husband. Our waitress made the whole experience exceptional with her Nova Scotia hospitality on display.
