Les avis convergent sur une expérience italienne authentique chez Alessa Trattoria, avec des plats typiquement italiens, des pâtes al dente et des pizzas savoureuses, des antipasti comme les arancini et des desserts bien exécutés, le tout préparé avec des ingrédients frais et des sauces maison, dans une ambiance vivante et élégante et un décor soigné. Le service est en général attentif et professionnel et les vins et cocktails complètent bien le repas, avec parfois des remarques sur l efficacité et la courtoisie du personnel. Le cadre plaît aussi pour les familles et les couples, et la terrasse est appréciée en saison, mais quelques critiques récurrentes reviennent: des tables proches qui gênent la circulation et un niveau sonore parfois élevé, des expériences de service inégales et des plats qui n arrivent pas toujours chauds, et un rapport qualité prix qui peut varier selon les plats en raison de portions inégales et de prix. Plusieurs commentaires signalent une expérience globale positive avec des plats et desserts qui restent en mémoire, et certains soulignent la constance et la passion de la cuisine et du service, ce qui fait de cet endroit une adresse à considérer lors d'une visite dans la région.
Party of 4, had Arancini & Stella pizza as anti pasti & a plate of pasta each for main.
It was ok
All of it
Good but nothing special
Expensive for the quality
The kind of thing we can easily do at home for a fraction of the price
There should be a better menu on beers, with & without alcohol, we're in Quebec in the 2020s, it's not choice that's lacking.
Not enclined to return, unless it's for their pizza
Its a nice Italian place although expensive in my opinion. The fried calamari was definitely worth it but my pasta alla vongole definitely wasnt. Definitely had better for the same price & definitely not fine dining but an expensive italian bistro.

J'aime Alessia & c'est generalement le restaurant ou nous venons lorsque l'on visite Magog, mais bon Dieu que le menu ne change jamais ! Juste pizza, pasta & escalopes de veau/poulet. Pas de poissons ! Aussi ce que je trouve dommage c'est qu'ils ne font pas la pizza Al Tono avec l'oeuf au milieu qui coule, pour tout vrai restaurant digne de ce nom, c'est un must sur le menu ! Aussi ou est l'option pizza vegetarienne toute garnie ? Poissons ? Nada. Alors le choix se limite a des pizzas tres simples avec peu de garnitures. Les pâtes meme chose, faites des pâtes au limoncello avec crevette & tapenade d'olive !
I've had pasta all over the world & make it a lot myself, so I'm picky but this was honestly the best I've had at any restaurant (ordered Penne all'Arrabbiata). Perfect.
Server was great, no complaints. If you're in Magog, this restaurant is a must try.
Delicious! Was packed on the Friday we went, but still got a table with no reservations. Our waitress was wonderful & knowledgeable. Food was amazing & had a great atmosphere. We had pasta but the pizza was very popular.
A beautiful menu, but ZERO GF pasta the cuttlets are all pre-breaded. Nothing can be modified, my guess is everything is prepared in advance. Avoid if you are gluten free. The cappuccinos were cold & we had to send them back. The 2nd ones were delicious. No small forks for mussels, lots of things were lacking. I had a "family' Cesare salad & a scoop of vanilla ice-cream & left hungry. The staff was very polite, We were 4 people & ordered 2 appetizers, 4 main courses, 2 dessert & 3 cappuccinos.At 250$ plus tip it was expensive. Sadly I don't see the restaurant being open in 6 months.
The BEST PIZZA !!!! 🍕 , 🍝 & pastas are all delicious 👌 We ate 🍕 Alessa, Capriciossa, & Parma. All ingredients are fresh !!! High-quality products are used !!!! Definitely will go back. We visited from Montréal. It's a must !!!
This is a terrific Italian eatery. I think I would place it in the top five of restaurants I have reviewed. I had the minestrone & a salad. Both excellent. My lunch companions had linguini, pizza & salad. All said they were great. I finished with an allongé that was so good, I asked what the brand was. See photo. They did not have gluten free pasta nor pizza dough but did have a soup & salads without wheat. Service was professional & the décor was very good... OK, they did have a couple of large screen TVs on the wall, but they were showing scenes from Italy, so one might say that they added to the atmosphere. I have no hesitation in recommending it if you find yourself in Magog.

I am not sure what I was expecting to start with, this is definitely not a great restaurant & feel like a chain even if it isn't one. The pasta dishes were lacking flavor & sauce, almost felt dry because of almost no sauce on them, on top of that the pasta was overcooked. Pizza was actually good. You will do better pasta at home yourself. I will not go back.
Nous fréquentons cet établissement régulièrement & en ressortons toujours très satisfait de notre expérience. L'accueil est chaleureux, la nourriture toujours excellente & le service mérite d'être souligné. La qualité & la fraîcheur des produits utilisés dans la préparation des plats ressort dès les premières bouchées. Pasta "al dente" ou pizza vous comblerons à n'en pas douter. Un conseil en terminant, réservez car l'endroit est très fréquenté.
Stellar. The only place I ever had pizza crust this caliber was at a well known spot in Rome. So whatever your chef is doing, they're doing it right. The arancini was well balanced, not too most not too cheesy (sorry, was too hungry to think to take a photo) & the others at our table ordered pastas & the caesar salad which were all reportedly very, very good. Our only complaint was that we had an elder with our group who had difficulty with the stairs, apparently large groups can't be sat on the ground floor but this is something that needs to be reevaluated for specific clients, because for some individuals, stairs are not an option & it was not made clear to us that our reservation was exclusively for the non handicap accessible 2nd floor when calling. Do keep in mind I'm leaving a 5 star for your food but that I was very frustrated by your inability to accommodate the elder in our group. Future guests may show up with wheelchairs or have individuals like ours, & they need to be accommodated appropriately.
The pasta dishes were fresh & delicious. The pizza was very different from an American version but it was very tasty. The cannolis were my favorite! Again just a very different taste palette from American dishes & we enjoyed our meal. The atmosphere was very relaxing but that could just be the time we went, which was for an early dinner.

We really enjoyed eating here, food & wine were very good. We went two nights in a row during our stay in Magog. We tried pasta, pizza & salads all were delicious. Would highly recommend. I would suggest getting a reservation if you come on a Friday or Saturday night & want a table, but there seems to be space at the bar without a reservation. Staff were very accommodating & the bar tender was great.
Walking into this Italian joint is like entering a carb-loaded comedy club where pizzas crack cheesy jokes, & the pasta does a little twirl before stealing the spotlight. It's so delicious; I'm convinced the chef has a secret pact with Italian nonnas who sprinkle extra magic into every dish. If food could tell jokes, these pizzas & pastas would be headlining at the Food Comedy Festival. Bravo, Chef - you've turned my taste buds into a standing ovation!"
