Great food! We had Pomodoro pasta & mushroom fungi pizza & it was delicious! The pizzas are large & great for sharing. Amazing atmosphere with great music! I would definitely recommend!!
We stopped here for a late dinner. It was a really nice pizzeria with a casual yet artsy feeling vibe. The staff were so friendly & fun. The drinks were great. The pizzas were AMAZING! Thin crust fresh & flavourful ingredients. We had two pasta dishes & they were okay but they paled in comparison to the pizzas. We ordered the Margherita, the pizza Bianca with the fennel sausage & the 4-cheese pizza. We'll have to make this a destination for our next visit to old Montreal.
Delicious food the service was great our waiter was attentive & very friendly answering all our questions the restaurant itself was so fun with great decorations & atmosphere & the pizza was some of the best I've had with a homemade sourdough crust & tasty toppings & the rest of my party said the pasta & drinks were also very good quality.
Nice place & the staff is super nice & friendly.
Had dinner here for new years even & everything went smoothly.
I've had pizza at many places in the city & this is definitely not my favourite. The pizza is good, but the dough doesn't stand out as well as the toppings.
We had the pepperoni & fungi pizzas. The pepperoni amount is generous & the fungi is not bad. However, the dough isn't up to par & the pizza doesn't stand out in any way. Just for the price & I was expecting more, compared to some other places I've tried in the city.
The bolognese pasta was very underwhelming. The tomato sauce was basic, not a lot of meat. I wouldn't recommend.
If I'm in the area & I crave a quick pizza, I might grab one, other than that, I wouldn't come back here.
The pizza & pasta are pretty mid. However very cute space & good service!
Fun date night at Balboa Pizzeria in Montreal with a great atmosphere & really good food. We shared the mushroom pasta & the margarita pizza & both were delicious. Would definitely come back 🍕✨
The service was mediocre. The appetizer & pasta were just okay but the pizza was terrible! They are cheap on there toppings so all your are eating is ordinary dough. Skip this place, you're not missing much!
Me & my friends spontaneously picked this restaurant earlier in the day while we were in Old Port because of Italian food craving. First thing we noticed was how welcoming Dil (sorry i might've misheard his name but the server with curly hair & glasses working a dinner shift oct. 28) was 😁 we were asked where we wanted to sit & was able to grab the table with a rear view of the whole restaurant. We're from Toronto so the interiors of the restaurants in our area aren't usually spacious but we were actually amazes by how nice the interior of the restaurant. Food was amazing. The pepporoni pizza was cooked in wood oven & has the perfect balance between salty & sweet. They were very generous with the pepporoni too. The vegetarian pizza tasted so fresh & flavourful, the pesto wasn't overpowering anything & the vegetables are perfectly cooked. Funghi pasta was probably the best funghi pasta we've ever had. Our server specifically said they cook it Italian style, so there's really not much cream but the flavour would still be there. For someone who gets tired of cream-heavy food, this was probably the most perfectly cooked funghi pasta for us. Service was perfect. Our server wasn't really on our face the whole time, would check up on us to ask how the food is so far & then later on pour us water. We didn't really need to ask for more things as we felt like everything was provided. Honestly, we don't speak French so it was nice being served nicely still despite the language barrier. The overall vibe of the restaurant was definitely a 10/10. It's so sad that they don't have a branch in Toronto but we would definitely go back when we get the chance! 🤍
Really nice decor, service is impecable, staff was friendly, food was on point. Wood fire to steal my heart. Pasta al dente! Cocktails were amazing. Highly recomend this experience. Cant wait to go again & try something new-- im sure will be delish.
