Antonietta is described as a warm, authentic Italian spot with a cozy, intimate vibe and a kitchen that showcases handmade pasta and wood-fired pizza. The menu focuses on fresh ingredients and Italian tradition, with standout dishes such as burrata, octopus, and sea urchin carbonara frequently praised. The service is noted as friendly and attentive when running smoothly, though some visits are described as loud, inconsistent, or rushed during busy hours. The open kitchen and a compact, one page menu give the experience a homey feel, and the menu tends to change with the seasons. Because the space is small, reservations are recommended, and while many reviews celebrate the food and atmosphere, a few point to price/value concerns or occasional billing slips. Overall, Antonietta is regarded as a neighborhood gem worth returning to for the flavors, atmosphere, and hospitality, even as a handful of visits fall short on service or value.
I was eager to try this restaurant based on the positive reviews I had heard from friends, but it ultimately fell short of my expectations. My group & I ordered three Cokes, & it honestly felt like they used the same can for all of them, given the extremely small size of the glass & the excessive amount of ice in it. Each Coke costed a whopping 5$ per person. While the pizza dough itself was good, it was so burnt that it left a bitter aftertaste. The waitress did not leave a good impression, as she was unfriendly & lacked basic courtesy, even giving us dirty looks when one of us chose not to leave a tip - something I understand is generally expected, but not when the service provided does not feel up to standard. Overall, I don't think we'll go back.

Notre restaurant italien préféré du quartier ! À mon avis, la meilleure pizza napolitaine à Montréal. L'ambiance est super agréable, & tout est toujours délicieux. Le menu change selon les saisons & ça paraît dans la fraîcheur des ingrédients. Le service est bon, & mes allergies ont été bien prises en compte - je me sens en confiance quand je mange ici. Allez-y, vous ne le regretterez pas !
Une expérience exceptionnelle chez Atonietta ! L'accueil est chaleureux, le service attentionné & chaque plat est un pur délice. Les pâtes maison sont incroyables, les pizzas savoureuses à souhait & les desserts sublimes. Une adresse incontournable que je recommande sans hésiter !
Antonietta is such a lovely take on an authentic Italian restaurant. The pizza is baked in a traditional wood-fired round oven, which gives the crust a perfect balance of chewiness & lightness. Their burrata salad is absolutely delicious-so fresh & light, the kind of starter that sets the tone for the rest of the meal.
The mains are equally satisfying: the beef macaroni is hearty & flavorful, while the rabbit pasta is delicate yet rich in taste. Everything feels thoughtfully prepared & true to Italian tradition.
The restaurant itself is on the smaller side, so making a reservation ahead of time is a must. The atmosphere feels cozy & intimate, & what really stands out is the service. The staff are attentive without being overbearing, constantly making sure your plates are cleared & the table kept fresh. On top of that, they're genuinely kind & welcoming, which makes the experience even more enjoyable.
All in all, Antoinetta is a gem; authentic, flavorful, & warm. Definitely worth the visit!
Hier soir, je suis venu dîner avec ma femme chez Antonietta. La nourriture était excellente, la burrata était crémeuse & pleine de goût, & la pâte de la pizza était parmi les meilleures que j'aie mangées à Montréal.
Le serveur qui s'est occupé de nous était très agréable, professionnel & attentionné.
Mais gros bémol : à plusieurs reprises dans la soirée, dès qu'il se retrouvait derrière le bar avec sa collègue (une autre serveuse présente ce soir-là), ils se mettaient à rire extrêmement fort, à un point où cela ressemblait presque à des cris. Le volume était tellement élevé que ça rendait nos échanges à table difficiles, & ça cassait complètement l'ambiance du repas.
C'est vraiment dommage car la cuisine est excellente & le cadre agréable, mais ce type de comportement nuit à l'expérience globale. On espère que ce sera plus calme la prochaine fois, car on aimerait vraiment revenir pour la qualité des plats.

Great food & service
It's quaint restaurant, with a cozy atmosphere. It feels like you're eating at your mother's or aunt's house.
The pizza & pasta were absolutely delicious & reasonably priced.
The service is outstanding!
We ordered a salad & as we weren't satisfied, we didn't get charged without discussion.
The Merlot we had was very good & reasonably priced.
Bottom Line: a cozy restaurant with food & atmosphere like you are eating in Italy
Great find for us although it's been here for 10-years !!!!
Food was amazing but we did not get the pizza. Only pasta this visit so we definitely need to come back.
Service was very friendly & personal. Almost felt like dining with a bunch of friends. The staff is very efficient & they are well coordinated. We sat at the bar & had a view to the kitchen.
Amazing experience as always. One of the best italian restaurants in Montreal, everyone should give it a try.
Everything is great from the wine selection, to the starters, the pizza, the pasta, the mains & the desserts. Menu is often changing so you can always try new things.
The grilled octopus that was on the special last night was one of the best I've had in a very long time. Super tender & moist.
Très bel accueil, nous n'avions pas de réservation & on nous a accommodé malgré l'achalandage. Tout ce qu'on a mangé était bon mis à part le tiramisu & la pizza, la pâte était molle & mouillée, sinon ce fut une belle soirée !
What a gem! Simple plates exceptionally prepared in a simple yet comfortable room with wonderfully friendly staff at reasonable prices. Always enjoy dinner here. The pizzas are delicious, the pasta perfectly prepared & the appetizers are always a tasty start. Don't miss dessert - the new nougat dessert is hands down the best!!!!

Food was OK at best (we had some apps, pizzas, & desserts). One of the pizzas was borderline gross which is inexcusable for a flagship item. Service was cold & disinterested & an afterthought. It was all just whatever.
It's a shame because we were there a few years & had a totally opposite experience, everything was great. I feel like what happened last night is representative of the food scene in Montreal now - degraded quality of food & service in exchange for heightened prices. I have no problem paying more to support our restaurants but I'm fed up with leaving these experiences feeling that I was taken advantage of as a customer.
Also, 18%-25% tip option range on payment machines is incredibly presumptuous.
Abbiamo mangiato un pasto fantastico da Antonietta. Tutto era buonissimo. La pasta all'agnello che abbiamo provato era un piatto memorabile. I sapori si amalgamavano perfettamente. E che dire della pizza, incredibile. Il posto è carinissimo, e il servizio è a 5 stelle, ti trattano come se fossi in famiglia. Era la nostra prima volta qui e non sarà l'ultima.
L'équipe est exceptionnelle, le service est impeccable. La pizza est délicieuse & les pâtes fraîches sont tout simplement incroyables. Nous y allons y retourner. Un vrai coup de coeur !
Une belle découverte! Probablement le meilleur tartare de boeuf que j'ai mangé, la pizza également était excellente. Un service attentionné & une belle carte de vin. J'aime!
This italian restaurant was very dissapointing. Not authentic. Waitress recommendation to try daily the daily special of Macaroni. It was served with minced duck as a "bolognese" served watery & tasted odd. Pizza was ok, sauce tasted from a can. The worst was that the 12$ tiramisu in a small cup that for certain wasnt made with mascarpone. literally cream.
