Cafe Bistro Il Momento

Open until 3 am

(24)

Pont Viau, Laval-des-Rapides

Café Italian Sandwiches Pizza

Review Summary

Cafe Bistro Il Momento is described as not a cafe bistro but more of an Italian resto bar with a Quebecois traditional vibe. Reviewers note there is no drink menu, no cocktails, only basic sangria pitchers for multiple people, and croissants that seem industrial. On the food side, the Prosciutto and bocconcini entry is described not as a fresh skewer but as a panini, and the classic poutine comes with grated cheese rather than cheese curds. Positive points include a fairly chill ambiance, good portions, and a friendly server who is often hard to track down. Cash only is noted, and images on the menu are said to be AI generated. Espresso is praised as amazing and possibly the best in town, and the pizza is also described as nice. Overall, Il Momento is called a hidden gem and a very pleasant place to spend time, with a friendly atmosphere that endures.View restaurant profile
