Tried out Alto Pizzeria recently, & it was a mixed experience. The manicotti was just average-honestly, a bit dry & could have used more sauce or filling for better balance. On the other hand, the peri peri burger was the highlight! Juicy, well-grilled, & packed with flavor, it definitely stood out. The cheesy garlic bread was fine but nothing exceptional-just your standard side.
Service was polite, which is always a plus. Overall, a decent spot, but I'd probably stick to their burgers next time rather than the pasta.View more

Alto Restaurant, located on Parc Avenue in Montreal, is a staple for late-night dining, particularly popular among students in the McGill Ghetto. This long-established eatery (since 1987) serves up a variety of comfort foods, from Montreal-style pizza to burgers, poutine, & the unique "pizzaghetti." Despite a setback in 2016 due to a fire that destroyed the original location, Alto has bounced back with a loyal following & continues to offer a lively atmosphere. The restaurant is particularly known for its pizzas, including favorites like the "MACAttack," & its generous portions. It's also well-liked for its chili oil, which adds a flavorful kick to many dishes. Besides pizzas, the menu features options like hearty poutines & pasta dishes. Many patrons appreciate its friendly service & vibrant ambiance. The restaurant is open late, making it an excellent spot for a meal after a night out or a study break. Despite some minor critiques regarding portion sizes or toppings, Alto remains a beloved local spot.View more

Amazing bistro-style eatery in the Milton-Parc area. Burgers, pizzas, poutines, & pastas are all good.View more

Mac attack is just thick dough with pasta, you can totally forget about drizzle of ground meat on topView more

To be entirely transparent, I came here out of complete desperation. I arrived in Montreal late for the weekend & to my disbelief, most restaurants are closed by 10 or 11pm. Spent almost an hour trying to find somewhere close to my hotel with "decent" food at midnight. Uber Eats claimed Alto was a top choice & reviews made it sound like it was worthwhile to go for. Ambience? Don't expect any. Very casual dining experience. Had some hip-hop playing off Spotify, a few tv's showing sports highlights. Place was mostly filled intoxicated 16-21 yr. I suppose I would see the appeal too if I was still in their demographic. Overly large menu. Way too many options. Reminds me of Pickle Barrel. & for anyone that's eaten at Pickle Barrel they'll understand what I mean. Overly large menu options is usually a sign of poor food. I personally find restaurants should stick to focusing on doing a smaller number of food options well. Versus trying to please everyone. There's probably nothing on this menu you won't find. Greek, Italian, burgers, pizza, sandwiches, subs & bar food. Anything you'd find in the freezer at your grocery store you can get here. Is it the same as what you find in the frozen section? Pretty much. I had a chicken on a pita (chicken was fresh & cooked very well so no complaints on the pita). The fries were a little on the crisper/oily side. Not my personal preference. We also ordered a cheese pizza that's cut in half with spaghetti in the middle of the plate. Interesting menu option. Pasta honestly was pretty bland. Pizza was nothing special or memorable. Our server... 😂 This was a highlight. I couldn't get a read on her. She was either miserable or hated her job. She said she had been working like 10 hours with no food or water. & can't even take a washroom break. She appeared like she just running on fumes. Not sure what the deal was with that but she was an odd one to interact with. Anyways, I can see the appeal for the youngin's.. But as an adult there's zero reason to go here unless you literally need to eat to survive & there's no other options. Overrated by far in my opinion.View more

Best Italian food & services! the waiter was helpful in helping me to decide & is kind enough to give me hot water. I got Manicotti - a cheese filled pasta with meat sauce on top, it tastes awesome & was able to gave me warmth after being soaked by unexpected rain. Will definitely come again!View more

Passed by today with family for early dinner. Something particular with this pizza place: the wings were excellent, the burger well performed & tasty fries but the cheese pizza was soggy & the lasagna sub par. First time that I feel in a pizza place all seems to be good but the pizza/pasta. I may come back for the wings though.View more

Good for their pizzas & their milkshakes. Not so sure about their pasta though.View more
