Bellucci Italia

Bellucci Italia is conveniently located next door to the DoubleTree by Hilton, which makes it extremely practical in winter as you don't need to step outside into the cold.

Unfortunately, the overall experience was disappointing. We arrived around 8:50pm & were turned away by the hostess, Anna, who told us the restaurant was fully booked & closing at 9:30pm. This was confusing, as there were visibly empty tables. When I later checked OpenTable, I saw reservations were still available until 9:30pm. After returning & pointing this out, her behaviour suddenly changed & we were immediately seated, followed by several other walk-ins with no bookings. This interaction felt unprofessional & left a poor first impression.

The food itself was mixed. The pizza was good & the wine was enjoyable. Our daughter's carbonara, while slightly discounted, was quite dry & underwhelming. Service throughout the meal was very slow, likely due to understaffing, which further affected the experience.

While the location is excellent, the front-of-house experience & slow service mean we wouldn't return. First impressions matter, & unfortunately this one overshadowed what could have been a much better visit.

Lovely little place located in the heart of montreal - we got lucky to find a table during Christmas market hours - food was delicious & the service was great! Staff was super welcoming as well! Highly recommend this place !

Svp réduire la quantité de sel!!! Laissez les gens saler leur plat. Les pâtes étaient extrêmement salé, vraiment. Vraiment dommage.

I can't say enough positive things about the experience. Super crowded but seated & served fast nonetheless.

Location is excellent & good vibe, clean, etc. however don't expect 5 star cuisine. For a restaurant in the middle of Place des arts where there is a lot of tourist trap, it's decently good.
Food was decent mainly comprised of pastas & pizzas. It's good for big groups as well. Staff was nice.
Burrata came with just plain raw uncut tomatoes. Small piece & not much flavor. Pasta was otherwise OK, perhaps a bit salty. Good portion size & selection of wine/drinks.
Not cheap but one dish makes you full & the location is just central in middle of Place des arts.

This restaurant is in a great spot. The large windows offer a beautiful view of the street, with nonstop activity & city scenery. The interior is gorgeous, with comfortable seating & a warm atmosphere. The entrance is a bit unusual since it's on the left & almost feels like a separate building, but once inside, everything looks amazing.

The staff was friendly & welcoming. The food was alright-tasty, but a bit more expensive compared to other Italian restaurants in the area. Still, it's worth trying at least once if you enjoy discovering new places.

Riz & saumon, le riz semblait de 2 à 3 jours & froid, j'ai juste mangé le saumon & j'ai dû me forcer. Pas de pain, ni huile d'olive ni sel poivre. La pire expérience en restau de ma vie.
