Ristorante Donato

Open until 10 pm

(288)

Westmount

Italian Pizza

Mentioned in: Burrata: The Fanciest Cheese and Where to Taste it in Montreal

Review Summary

At Ristorante Donato, reviewers consistently note a beautiful, refined setting and attentive, sometimes exceptional service, making it feel like a top dining destination even when experiences vary. The menu earns praise for fresh, flavorful dishes such as fennel salad, arancini, burrata, branzino and ribeye, with several meals described as well balanced and elegantly presented; yet a number of guests report undercooked pasta, overly salty sauces, or dishes that did not meet the price point. While many visits are described as memorable and lively with a great atmosphere, a few experiences mention noise, inconsistency in service, or overpriced portions, suggesting Donato can be outstanding but not uniformly flawless. Overall, it remains a frequently recommended place for a special night out, offering strong dining with a chic vibe.View restaurant profile
