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! 🤍
The food is amazing!!! So delicious that we have to unbutton our pants to make more room 😭🙏🏻🍕 we ordered Pepperoni pizza, Vegetarian pizza & Funghi tagliatelle, & the flavours of all are worth for the price. The space is such a vibe, cozy & if you are with your group, it's intimate in a way that you all will enjoy the conversation with one another while enjoying the food in front of you. Wonderful service as well! Very welcoming & friendly. Truly a great place to dine & enjoy the night out ☺?
We stumbled into BALBOA while visiting Montreal. The pizza was delicious!! We loved the decor & the staff were so lovely to us Australian tourists!
Très bonne pizza au pepperoni, juste un peu dispendieux. Mais ça vaux le coup !
Nous avons souhaité découvrir ce petit restaurant au vieux Montréal.
Premier point positif : la nourriture est très bonne ! Les pizzas étaient délicieuses, les pâtes au ragu également, rien à redire là-dessus ! Sans oublier la portion de tiramisu vraiment généreuse.
Cependant, le service était très long. Nous avons attendu nos boissons facile 20 min, les plats au moins 30 min. On a demandé à emporter les restes de nos pizzas mais ils ne sont jamais revenus.
& attention ! Nous avons dû payer un pourboire après taxes alors qu'il doit être mis AVANT taxes (selon la loi 72 du Québec). Quand nous l'avons mentionné, nous avons eu une explication très bancale. Bref, ce n'est pas très honnête.
C'est dommage, car l'ambiance du restaurant (déco, musique, lumière) & la nourriture était super !! Sans le service, on le recommande largement !
What wonderful night… my boyfriend & I celebrated our anniversary there & were delighted by the food, the atmosphere & the service. The pizza was to die for & I'm still craving the antipasti plate. Will be back for more!
Very cute restaurant! The food was amazing, we got the'Antipasto Misto' to share & it was incredible!! The fried olives were the best part. We also very much enjoyed the pizzas, I recommend adding some chili oil for an extra kick. Overall good service
Expérience mitigée pour la fête de ma conjointe. Un service long (30mn pour les boissons, 30mn pour les plats), le serveur était très peu réactif ça laissait vraiment à désirer. Deco sympathique
Selon la loi au Québec nous devons payer les pourboires avant les taxes, ce qui n'est pas fait ici & le serveur trouve un moyen pour contourner le sujet. On a aussi pas vu notre moitié de pizza qu'on a demandé à emporter, espérant qu'elle peut servir à des nécessiteux.
Restaurant italien qui diffuse que de la musique hispanique (logique??)
Très belle adresse au vieux Port. La déco est vraiment travaillée, les pizzas sont excellentes ! La pâte est fine & moelleuse 👍
Les prix sont ceux du vieux port mais au moins on y mange bien 😊
Super beau décor & ambiance! La pizza & les pâtes étaient très bons, nous avons été déçu par les arancinis qui étaient super petits. Belle découverte!
The best Pizza in town, my clean dishes already explained the taste. Now waiting my dessert but just can't wait to express the happy feeling about the amazing food I got.
Cute new spot in the Old Port! Food is *delicious*, you have to try the pizzas. Oh & the cocktails were super, thanks to EJ who was our bartender!!
Edit: There are also a few vegan options & accommodations, they were able to adapt a pizza to have vegan cheese! 🙌🏻
Decor , music , atmospere, ambiance: very much in line with high end pizza resto.
Pizza very very good in fact , exceptional & generous.
The crust is perfect.
The prices are in line with the quality of food & ingredients.
Wish they offered an all dressed pizza on the menu like 90% of pizza restos offer.
Reception & service worth mentioning.
Particularly the gracious & smiling Mathilde who took great care of me & made me laugh on an off day for me.
Merci Mathilde:)
Wow..Im a pizza snob & this was great!! Wood fired crust to perfection. Our guide through the menu was David-Lee …Great job. Loved the decor & authentic Italy pizzas offered.
I am writing this while stuffed on pizza after a day of being on my feet around the city. I had the vegetarian pizza my buddy had the mortadella. This pizza SLAPS 👏 its TASTY 👏 its REASONABLY PRICED 👏 the staff was great & very friendly & did not judge us too hard on my very poor french. The pizza was delicious & if we didnt come in so late I would've washed it down with coffee & a Gelato.
I also have a nut allergy & the pesto is nut free (not seed free) which was amazing!! Considering how delicious it was!! & they included it on the receipt so I know they checked for sure (I've had restaurants not do this!) If you're in Montreal for the first time or a repeat person this place is it!! Check it out!! Merci!!!
Très bel endroit dans le vieux Montréal. Parfait pour un repas entre amis ou en famille. Le décor & l'ambiance sont très agréables. Les pizzas sont bonnes mais pas excellente. Le service que nous avons reçu était bon mais manquait d'attention & de professionnalisme. Le prix étaient correct relativement à la qualité de la nourriture & du service.
Pizza average, carpaccio noyé dans l'huile. Mais le problème fut le service. L'incompétence n'avait d'égal que l'air bête & le mépris. Le vieux Montréal est assez grand & varié, vous trouverez mieux facilement.
Service impeccable, les pizzas sont savoureuses
, j'ai pris la pizza à la mortadelle & j'ai adoré
