Excellent experience, great staff, delicious food, not rushed to finish, definitely not our last time.

Food was outstanding. The kitchen messed up some orders, but made it right. That's the sign of good service. Mistakes happen, but they owned it, and that earns my respect. I'd go back in a heartbeat.

our food and drinks were amazing! The service was great from our waiter and the atmosphere was quiet and enjoyable! Overall, a great restaurant you should try!
For drinks: we had the white sangria and amaretto sour.
For our starter: we had the arancini balls
For our mains: we had the PENNE ALLA GIGI and _____ a la gio (forgot the first part of the name)
For dessert: we had the tiramisu :)

1/5 — Extremely Disappointing Service

We visited this restaurant as a group of 9 at 1:30 PM for their 3-course lunch menu. The restaurant wasn’t busy by any means. Two of us ordered something incredibly simple — linguini pasta with tomato sauce — while the rest ordered from the special menu.

At 2:10 PM, when no food at all had arrived yet, we informed the staff that we needed to leave by 2:30 PM because we were on a tour schedule. Instead of acknowledging the urgency, they continued at the same slow pace. At 2:20 PM, they finally brought out the starters (which was nothing special to brag about) for those who ordered the special menu, but the pasta still wasn’t served. In general the food should not have taken more than 10 minutes yet we waited nearly an hour for nothing.

We ultimately had to cancel our orders and leave at 2:37 PM without receiving our main courses. Not only did this make us late for our tour, but when we expressed our frustration, the staff argued with us and claimed we should have “said something sooner” — even though we clearly informed them at 2:10, and again before leaving. Paid $5 per person for the starters from the special menu.

The experience was unorganized, slow, and dismissive of customers’ time. Very disappointing, especially for something as basic as getting lunch served within a reasonable time.

Would not recommend, especially for groups or anyone on a schedule

We were a group of friends who decided spontaneously to try out this place for dinner. The food was delicious. Unfortunately, the service was not at par. It was slow and often, we had to pass our requests to other staff members due to the long wait times and our waitress not having to visit our table regularly. At some point, the wait became frustrating. Lovely restaurant, but wish the service was better for the price paid.

Food was okay, waitress was very friendly. Wasn't able to enjoy a glass of wine at dinner as they ran out of clean glasses which was disappointing.

I had such a wonderful experience at this restaurant! The food was delicious, the atmosphere was cozy, and everything felt just right. But what made my visit truly special was Daniel. He’s an amazing waiter — so kind, attentive, and genuine. He made sure everything was perfect and treated me with such care and respect. You can tell he really enjoys what he does. His smile and positive energy made my evening unforgettable. Thank you, Daniel, for the excellent service — you’re truly a gem! I’ll definitely come back again.

All staff were warm, attentive, and professional. The food was very good. It was a relaxed atmosphere. They accommodated my food allergy to Canola oil. We recommend this wonderful Montreal Italian restaurante!
