Overall Mesón is seen as a solid neighbourhood spot for gatherings with friends or family, offering good food, strong drinks, and a welcoming vibe, with some variability in dishes and consistency across visits.View restaurant profile

Havre aux Glaces

Villeray-Saint-Michel, Little-Italy

Ice Cream

Mentioned in: The Best Ice Cream in Montreal

Review Summary

Havre aux Glaces draws mixed notes from reviewers, with a long queue and prices that feel high for scoops, though flavors come across as rich and ingredient-forward, featuring visible pistachio and a strong matcha while some cones taste a bit burnt and portions feel small for the cost. Many praise the sorbets and the best sorbet flavors, with seasonal rotations that keep trying something new on each visit. The shop offers a wide range of dairy-free options, which is appreciated by lactose intolerant guests. Some descriptions frame the product as artisanal ice cream rather than gelato, with flavor profiles that taste very real and include pistachio, hazelnut, and caramel or maple variations. There is no seating inside, but the market setting provides nearby picnic tables, even in winter. A pink grapefruit sorbet in a half-liter portion is highlighted, and overall flavors are consistently delicious, even if some find the price and portion size a touch high.View restaurant profile

Asian Fusion Grill

Review Summary

Wok Hei comes across as a tiny, off the beaten path neighborhood gem with a single table and counter seating, offering Westernized Chinese dishes at good prices. The menu features shrimp spring rolls with delicate shrimp in a thin fried wrapper, General Tao with well cooked chicken, just enough batter, lightly sauced and dusted with sesame seeds, and a dish described as the upside-down bowl. A BBQ pork with mushrooms not on the menu is praised for its savory depth. The place feels tucked away but is worth a detour for those craving Chinese food with Western touches, and the interior seating is warmly welcomed when available. All dishes are described as delicious and unique, and visitors say they will return, rating it as some of the best Chinese food for the price despite its small size.View restaurant profile

Review Summary

Pizza Roma earns broad praise for fresh, hot pizzas and reliable quality that many customers call among the best in Montreal. The reviews describe a tangy, bright sauce with ample diced tomatoes, firm red onions, crisp olives, and cheese that is well balanced, with dough that is neither too thick nor too thin.
