Reviews portray Basilico Pizza and Pasta as a cozy Italian spot on Nuns' Island with wood fired pizzas and tasty pastas. Guests describe a warm, inviting atmosphere and friendly, attentive service, with a standout hostess who helps make each visit special and a team that takes care of diners well. Pizza is often praised, especially the margherita, and the pastas, such as carbonara, are noted for freshness and al dente texture, with some diners calling the pizza among the best in Montreal. Several remarks advise making a reservation during busy periods because the place can be crowded and noisy, but the overall experience is seen as worth a visit. A few comments mention that the pizzas have become more average since the original pizzaiolo left, yet many continue to enjoy the meal along with dessert options like panna cotta and Nutella pizza.
La portion semblait petite vu la grosseur de l'assiette, mais c'était parfait ! Attente longue , déception pour avoir une bouteille d'eau minérale mais une de mes meilleures pâtes carbonara dans la région de Montreal ! La vraie recette italienne , sans sauce à la crème ! Tellement bon !!!
Excellent accueil, service parfait, serveuse super souriante, repas très bons. Tout pour plaire lors de notre visite de ce soir mardi à 5 personnes. Merci beaucoup. Recommandé sans aucune réserve

The absolute best Carbonara outside of Rome! Delicious cannoli & very friendly service. The Nutella pizza for dessert is also a great choice. Definitely recommend for lunch or dinner.
Excellente pizza! C'était notre première visite & le personnel était agréable avec nous. Aucun problème pour se garer même si c'était une soirée très achalandée.

Parfait pour les familles! Super service Ma lasagne est délicieuse & les enfants adorent la pizza classique avec ajout de prosciutto & la salade César! merci beaucoup
The food was excellent. Small, normal-size servings unlike what you get in the US! The desserts were great, not too sweet. Try their version of the key lime pie. The service was ok. They recommended the wrong type of wine for the pasta that was served & they mixed up my husband's dessert drink. He requested a Prosecco but was given Graffa. The waitress realized the mistake when he asked if it was a new type of Prosecco. She quickly corrected the error & was super nice throughout the evening.

This hidden gem has some of the best fried calamari in the city. I definite must try Restaurant with a beautiful delicious authentic Italian woodburning pizza. Excellent service & Zen atmosphere Absolutely delicious
Première fois à cet endroit. J'ai chosi la pizza pepperoni. La croûte est incroyable & les ingrédients sont frais. Le tiramisu est aussi fait maison. Nous y retournerons c'est sûr! Merci
This place has the most delicious food. The pizza was crispy & light, the carbonara was exquisite & the dessert was phenomenal. They had a big selection of good wines that paired well with the food. But most importantly, the owner, comes around & speaks to his customers. Basilico is a gem that you must try.
