The pizzeria is tucked just around the corner from the main street, so it's easy to miss if you don't know it's there.
We ordered three pastas-Carbonara, Bolognese, & Chicken Alfredo-& they were absolutely incredible. Every dish was bursting with flavor!
The pizza was slightly under-seasoned, but the dough was delicious-fresh, light, & perfectly baked.
Our food arrived very quickly, & the service was friendly & attentive.
Definitely recommend this place! ⭐?🍕🍝

Amazing restaurant. We ordered the spaghetti carbonara, bolognaise & frutti di mare, & all of it was delicious. The complimentary bread was fresh & soft. The atmosphere of the restaurant was nice & tavern-ish, & the staff were friendly.

We had an incredible family lunch at [Pizzeria Name] in Montreal, & I can't say enough about how wonderful the experience was! The food was absolutely exceptional-the two pastas we ordered were perfectly cooked & bursting with flavor, the pizza was a delight with its crispy crust & fresh toppings, & the bruschetta was simply divine. Every dish was a hit with both the parents & kids in our group!
Beyond the amazing food, the hospitality from the staff made our visit truly special. They were warm, attentive, & made us feel so welcome, creating a perfect atmosphere for our family gathering. Thank you for making our day so memorable! We can't wait to return.
With gratitude,

Went to Al Pizzetta for a lunch pick-up & while the location is excellent, the food didn't quite live up to the hype. We ordered the Margherita pizza, which was really good-simple, fresh, & flavorful. However, the vegetarian pizza was a bit of a letdown-not much going on flavor-wise. The pasta was decent, but nothing impressive.

Considering the location, the food feels a bit overpriced for what you get. On the plus side, the place is clean, & the service was friendly. If you're looking for better options, though, there are definitely places a bit farther from the crowd that offers more bang for your buck.

The pizza is so freaking good!!! The cheese & sauce are amazing. All the other ingredients are just a bonus after that. But no less fresh or amazing.

Convenient location, quality food. Tried the house salad, vegetarian pasta & margarita pizza. Salad was super fresh, kids loved the thin crust pizza & the penne pasta had tomato sauce + vegetables, which is a rare combination. Would highly recommend. We sat outside & it was lovely
