Café Ice Cream Desserts & Sweets Sandwiches Pastries Italian

Review Summary

Reviews of Épicerie Alimentari Sud show a mixed picture: some customers praise delicious paninis, burrata when included, excellent bread, and a wide array of Italian cookies and chips, while others report frequent stockouts of pizza sauce in this small Italian specialty shop and occasional service lapses, including forgetting items in orders and discrepancies between online hours and actual closing times. The space is described as a bit off the beaten path and charming, with great sandwich options like the Bomba and a prosciutto sandwich and friendly staff, though prices can feel slightly high. Some readers question being an epicerie in name given the emphasis on prepared foods, and say they would not return for Italian products if stock and accuracy do not improve. Overall, Épicerie Alimentari Sud comes across as a place with potential, delivering flavorful hits when items are available, and a mix of misses that affects consistency.View restaurant profile

Italian Market Seafood/Fish Pasta

Mentioned in: From Wine Spectator to Forbes: the Exclusive Guide to Award-Winning Montreal Restaurants

Review Summary

Primi Piatti is a standout Italian spot on the South Shore where the fare is applauded for freshness and flavor from fresh pasta and classic dishes to creative twists like burrata with black truffle and a memorable tiramisu; the service is frequently described as attentive and professional and the ambiance is stylish with a strong wine list to pair with the menu. While many reviews celebrate generous portions and good value for the quality, a few experiences note burnt or inconsistent dishes, slower or less polished service, and occasional noise that makes conversation harder, but the overall impression is that Primi Piatti is a go to destination worth returning to and recommending.View restaurant profile
