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.
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.
Loved it - Will be back soon!

Food was hit & miss. The Asparagus Risotto was'mid'. Nothing special. The Pork Ragu Macaroni was excellent. The appetizers were generally good but not great. The service was substandard. The room was loud & we sometimes could not hear the waitress at different ends of the table (we were at a table for 6), so we had to ask questions more than once & she was visibly losing her patience/thinking we were idiots. It was also not easy to get her attention. They also forgot a couple of dishes but quickly recovered. In general the service was not at the level of high end Montreal restaurants. I should say however that once the food was ready the dish presentation/description/delivery (by the people who were not our server) was clear, interesting, & excellent. The room was small, beautiful, & intimate, but a bit loud. Also note - there is a lot of fish & seafood on the menu, so if someone does not like that there are very few options remaining. I'd say this in general is a good restaurant but I am not planning to go back for this menu, & was put off by the server (& I've never said that in any review of any Montreal restaurant).
Nous avions hâte d'essayer ce resto de quartier & les plats principaux (pâtes aux homard & macaroni au porc) étaient franchement divins!
Par contre notre expérience reste mitigée avec un spritz à 15$avant taxes servi dans un verre de vin dégustation+plein de glaçons & une petite assiette de calamars en entrée à presque 30$, c'est un peu ridicule à ce prix. Dommage que le prix des restos soit devenu aussi exorbitant, sinon ça aurait été un coup de coeur niveau menu
One of the best Italian restaurants in the world. Service is superb! The food is beyond imagination. Take your time…we spent 3 hours enjoying every moment. Highly recommend.
Ce petit restaurant est officiellement mon restaurant italien préféré. Chacune des choses que j'y ai mangé était à se jeter par terre. L'ambiance tellement amicale, voire familiale, & agréable & chaleureuse & là tu manges & tu ne peux pas arrêter & t'en oubli la syntaxe de ton texte!!
What a great experience. A neighbourhood but much more than that. The service was top notch i felt right at home when I got in.
As for the food, the octopus salade with fennel & organe was a breath of fresh air followed with the lamb chops with an amazing sauce was a great way to start the evening.
We finished the night with a couple pastas that were very generous portion wise.
Overall i highly recommend this restaurant. Come by for the wine & stay for the food.
Très bonne nourriture & service impeccable
Sauf au moment des factures ou la serveuse a inversé nos factures & n'a pas voulu les ajuster donc j'ai payé 50% plus cher que ce que j'aurai dû…
C'est aussi tres bruyant & on sent l'urgence de vite manger & vite libérer la table c est dommage …
antonietta is an italian hidden gem! the restaurant is small but the seating arrangement, decor, & ambiance make the space feel cozy & inviting. with an open kitchen concept, you feel as though you're a guest having handmade dinner in someone's home. the service is impeccable as the staff is extremely informed about the ingredients & extensively know their wine list. the wine menu has your main options: red, white, orange & bubbly. if you have any questions or concerns they are there to guide you in having the best & most authentic italian experience in the city. now when it comes to the food - absolutely orgasmic! with a perfectly size menu (one page) you can taste the freshness & quality in each bite from appetizers to dessert. to add, i noticed that so much craft, passion, & creativity goes into every dish. we were fortunate to try an experimental dish made by their back of house legend, matteo, & of course it did not disappoint.
antonietta is absolutely gorgeous & checks all your culinary boxes! thank you to the amazing team, can't wait to come back during the summer!

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 !
Si vous recherchez une expérience culinaire italienne qui sort de l ordinaire je vous recommande fortement Antonietta le chef/propriétaire Anthony est incroyable 10/10
