“Excellent repas, service impeccable avec le sourire. Je recommande“

“The food here was truly amazing. We had the raw halibut which was similar to a ceviche, the muscles with the salsa which were my favourite, pork and beef skewers, as well as three different salads, the green mint bean salad, the salad with mixed greens, as well as the zucchini salad. We also had the grilled arctic char and the lobster risotto. The risotto portion, I expected to be larger esp as a main, but with all the food we had, we were full.“

“Excellent service from Dominique despite a very busy evening. Impeccable food.
(carbonara dough and gambori pizza)
Pleasant music, not too loud. Small downside, the table is very close to each other but with the music it creates a screen between the conversation of the table next to it!“

“La Spada is an absolute gem in Montreal! From the moment I walked in, the warm and inviting ambiance set the tone for a fantastic dining experience. The staff were attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about the menu, offering great recommendations tailored to my preferences.

The food? Simply outstanding. Every dish was a perfect balance of flavor, presentation, and authenticity. The fresh, house-made pasta was the highlight—cooked to perfection with rich, flavorful sauces that transported me straight to Italy. Their wine selection was equally impressive, with options that paired beautifully with every course.

What truly sets La Spada apart is the attention to detail. From the quality of the ingredients to the beautifully plated desserts, everything exudes care and excellence. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or simply indulging in a great meal, La Spada is the place to go. I can’t wait to return and explore more of their menu. Highly recommend!“

“We celebrated a special event at Donato's on a regular Tuesday afternoon for lunch. We had an exquisite and memorable experience. The table d'hote had so many offerings at unbeatable prices. Every dish was served to perfection and our party of 4 agreed that there was nothing missing or lacking from this experience. Many thanks Tony for offering champagne on the house as we celebrated our daughter's graduation from Concordia. We WILL be back!“

“This Italian restaurant in Old Montreal is truly Beautiful and an absolute must-visit. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and you feel right at home the moment you walk in. The food is authentic and bursting with rich flavors – you can taste the quality in every bite. The drinks were not only fantastic but also generously portioned and reasonably priced. The service was outstanding; the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, adding to the experience regardless of where you’re from. It was our first visit, and it made our trip unforgettable. I can’t wait to come back!“

“There are many things to appreciate about this bistro, others we were not super excited about. I would probably try it again if I lived in the area, but will not do a detour for it.

What we liked: the nice, young lady who served us, the coziness of the place, the lentil soup and the lamb shank, the BYOB formula.
What was OK: the eggplant pasta, the side veggies that seem a bit of an afterthought. A bit expensive but that is usually the case in BYOB restaurants as they need to make a good profit on the food itself.
What could be improved: salad included in the meal is tiny and very generic; we had to go to the kitchen at the end to find the wait staff and ask for the bill; open kitchen very close to the dining area with a lot of noise and smells; a few words in French (Bonjour, Merci) would go a long way to make Québécois of all backgrounds feel welcome.“

“Un immense merci à Martin et toute son équipe pour le service exceptionnel lors des 60 ans de notre mère. Servir 75 personnes en même temps, ce n’est pas une mince affaire — et vous avez relevé le défi haut la main ! Dès la première rencontre avec Martin pour planifier la soirée, tout a été A1 : à l’écoute, de bons conseils, et toujours soucieux que tout le monde soit satisfait. Le choix du menu était excellent, et en plus, on a mangé chaud… wow, merci ! Les serveurs ont été d’une gentillesse remarquable. Le fait que les enfants soient servis en premier, j’ai trouvé ça vraiment attentionné. Demain matin, je recommencerais sans hésiter. Bravo et encore merci !“

“J'aime ce restaurant familial, ils ont le cœur sur la main les gens sont gentils, je me souviens durant la covid, c'était dur et ils ont pris le temps de remercier les clients avec u petits mots dans la commande à emporter la gratitude, c'est important et ils sont reconnaissants, ils donnent des desserts ou de la nourriture supplémentaire quand ils voient que vous commandez souvent.“

“Parma Ca é is outstanding! The coffee is top-notch, the staff are friendly and passionate, and the atmosphere is cozy yet stylish. Every detail is thoughtfully done, making it the perfect spot to relax or work. Highly recommend stopping by!“

“I brought my sister here for her birthday and we were both very happy with the experience. All of the courses were delicious. The portions seem small at first but we were both full by the end of the night. I especially loved the panna cotta which I had never tried before.
The atmosphere was my favourite part; it is a very intimate setting with beautiful music and ambience.
If I could afford it, I would eat here every week. I will certainly be back.
Thank you, Barcola, for a great night!“

“Delicious food and great atmosphere. Our waiter was quite kind. However, he abandoned us for a while and did not come back to inquire if we needed anything else. Other than that, the experience was affable and I recommend enjoying of a good pasta in the beautiful Montreal at W&G!“

“Prompt and friendly service. Food was amazing.“

“If you're in Montreal and love lasagna, this place is an absolute must-visit! Hands down, the best lasagna I've had in Canada. The layers were perfectly balanced, with the tomato paste hitting that ideal consistency—rich, flavorful, and not overly heavy. Every bite was perfection.

To top it off, the owner is one of the friendliest people I've ever met. His warmth and passion for his food make the experience even more special. You can feel the love and care that goes into every dish.

Highly recommended for anyone craving authentic, heartwarming lasagna. I'll definitely be back!“

“Montréal à table à la Terasse du W Un mousseux "Crément d'alsace" pour accompagner mes "Crevettes et sorbet au cari": Crevettes marinées et grillées façon thaï (5), sorbet cari coco, lime, coriandre. Mon appréciation: crevette sucrée et piquante adouci par le sorbet rafraîchissant et gouteux, un délice. Un vin blanc "Sancerre" avec Tostadas à la pieuvre grillée (3) Pico de gallo, crème d’avocats, oignons marinés à l’hibiscus, piment chili, laitue et tomates. Mon appréciation: la pieuvre d'une belle tendretée, le tout excellent avec l'ajout de jus de lime. Sans la lime, on goûte bien l'oignon qui est sucré. Panna cotta au chocolat et au rhum Mousse de litchi: on goûte le amer du chocolat, le sucrée de la mousse de litchie équilibre l'assiette pour la gardée fraîche en bouche. Les boules croustillantes ajoute de la texture au plat. Excusez ma fin de rhume pour ne pas avoir goûté au rhum. Ambiance musical style lounge avec une touche qui donne envie de danser aux gens comme moi qui ont le beat dans le sang. Et que dire du service, ils m'ont mise à l'aise toute suite, moi qui va au restaurant seule, je me sentais comme une reine. J'ai pu goûter à different vin pour choisir celui qui me plaît. C'est agréable d'être certain de boire ce qu'on apprécie. Parfois, la barmaid savait plus que moi si j'appréciais le vin. Merci de m'avoir permis d'en goûter un autre.“
