Absolutely loved the vibe at Balboa! The pizza is seriously next level (sourdough crust is a game changer). Great spot for a casual night out with friends or date night. Service was friendly & fast too. Can't wait to go back!View more

Retro charm, sourdough pizzas that slap, & cocktails with serious spritz cred. Feels like your Italian grandma opened a pizzeria & invited the cool kids. Busy, lovely, & worth the carbs.
Pro tip: fried olives.View more

Cost-effective Italian leopard print pizza?the pores on the outside of pizza are like the diamond pattern on a charcoal grilled steak, which is the source of aroma & taste.
High-quality meat + high-quality dough creates a delicious pizza that makes you want more, enough to even finish the sides.
I recommend , you make the decision!View more

Superb Little Italian!!!
(I always try to be fair in my reviews & don't criticise unless necessary & only praise if it truly deserves it. This restaurant falls into the latter category).
We found this restaurant by chance on our arrival in Montreal as we dashed in from the rain. Lovely welcome. Two very waiters who told us about the wine & beers. We both had a pizza - really thin & lovely dough. Delicious!!!
Then, my husband - a pudding expert - had a tiramisu. Said it was the best he had ever had. I was allowed a couple of spoonfuls & I entirely agree - exquisite!
The lady owner's little twin girls were in for part of the evening wiping down tables, filling up water - they were absolute stars!!!
A fabulous restaurant which deserves 5* for simply everything. Thank you very much a super start to our stay in Montreal xxxView more

Recently opened in mid May & needed work at that time, but may have sorted things out. Professionally decorated but somehow cold & confused decor. Wait staff attentive to the point of brisk, though there were few customers to serve at the time. Very short menu of standard, uninteresting'Italian' dishes. Stingy wine servings. Prices somewhat high for food this ordinary, which is not surprising in a high tourist area. Gnocchi was cool, stodgy & bland. Pizza was good.View more
