Super petite adresse italienne en plein centre de Montréal! On se sent accueilli, l'expérience est authentique & on goûte l'Italie à pleines dents. Les cafés sont délicieux, je vous conseille particulièrement le Granita Café, nouveau concept pour moi & c'est adopté. Grazie Mille!

Petit stop dans la journée pour se ravitailler. Ambiance festive avec la musique. Bel endroit pour se réchauffer dans notre'printemps' entre deux points a visiter en ville. Le plus....interdit d'avoir portable pour travailler, alors pas le choix d'être dans le plaisir. Belle découverte.

Très bonne expérience dans ce café au concept 100 % italien ! L'ambiance est immersive, avec une musique assez forte qui rappelle vraiment les bars en Italie, & un café bien corsé comme on les aime. J'ai testé un cappuccino au Nutella : excellente surprise, gourmand mais pas écoeurant. On sent que les boissons sont travaillées avec soin. Petit bémol sur les pâtisseries, qui sont certes délicieuses mais un peu chères à mon goût. Malgré cela, l'endroit vaut clairement le détour pour les amateurs de café & d'ambiance italienne authentique.
