Overall, reviews convey a mix of highs and lows at Al Pizzetta. Pizzas are repeatedly praised, especially the Margherita and certain mushroom varieties, with some diners calling the crust tasty and the toppings fresh, while others find some pizza bland or overpriced for the area. Pasta dishes such as carbonara and fettuccine Alfredo receive strong praise when executed well, though a few meals veer toward bland or not tasting traditional, and one reviewer notes a pasta that did not taste like Bolognese. Appetizers like calamari and bruschetta are highlighted for flavor, and the dining setup, including a terrace, is appreciated by those who dine al fresco. Service is described as attentive in some visits and brisk in others, but generally friendly. The overall impression is that Al Pizzetta can deliver authentic, satisfying Italian flavors for a casual meal, but consistency and value seem to vary by visit and personal expectations.
La pizza était bonne & le service courtois & rapide. La salle à manger est un peu démodée, mais tout est très propre & l'atmosphère est agréable & à prix raisonnable pour un restaurant dans le Vieux Montréal.

We went to Al Pizzetta for dinner. There were 5 of us. We ordered fettuccine Alfredo with chicken, spaghetti Carbonara, fettuccine Bolongnese & 2 pizzas: 3 meats & mushroom. The food was good. The mushroom pizza was very ordinary, just a cheese pizza with cremini mushrooms. We also took calamari, garlic cheese bread & Caesar salad as appetizers to share.
Pizza is decent & edible but not justified at the price point. Put lots & lots of chilli flakes & parmesan to help with taste as it was bland otherwise. Bottom of the pizzas are white 🥲 Much better options in the area. I'm not sorry I went but would not recommend to others or go back.
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.

On our trip to Montreal, we ate at Al Pizzeta twice. The first time we ate there was, we got a bowl of fettuccine drenched in pesto, two bowls of spaghetti with tomato sauce with vegetables. & one bowl of spaghetti with just tomato sauce. The spaghetti & fettuccine was very good & all three had very good flavor. In my opinion the pesto fettuccine was the best out of the three. The second time we went there, we had personal pizzas. We got a Funghi pizza, which has mushrooms, two veggie pizzas, & one margherita pizza. We also had bruschetta as a starter. The bruschetta had a lot of flavor & the pizza was very filling. Overall, it was a great place to eat at, & I recommend to eat it if you stop by Montreal.
Se cercate un locale informale dove non conta l apparenza ma la sostanza, questo è il posto giusto. Accoglienza calorosa, vera, personale gentile e disponibile. Il cibo è buono, cucinato con cura, dai sapori autentici. Noi ci siamo stati due volte, abbiamo assaggiato sia la pasta che la pizza, entrambe buonissime (e la pasta era cotta come si deve! ). Il pesto, poi, è notevole. Rispetto ad altri ristoranti della zona lo abbiamo apprezzato per la genuinità delle materie prime e per la semplicità dell'ambiente. Mi sento di consigliarlo.
