The restaurant has a pleasant ambiance, with good lighting & appropriate music. The setting has potential, especially given its location in Old Port Montreal.
Unfortunately, the overall experience was very disappointing. The service was disorganized & unprofessional. Staff appeared inexperienced & overwhelmed. We experienced long wait times, & several dishes were brought to our table that were not ours. The team seemed rushed & confused throughout the evening.
The food quality was unacceptable. My plate arrived cold. The bavette was extremely chewy & lacked flavor, & the potatoes were undercooked. I ate very little of my meal. When the server cleared my plate, which was nearly untouched…no one asked whether there was an issue or offered to address it. The lack of attention & basic service standards was concerning.
Considering the restaurant's prime location & pricing, the quality of both food & service does not meet expectations. You will pay premium prices for a substandard experience.
To make matters worse, parking in the area was poorly indicated, & we ended up receiving a $100 parking ticket.
Overall, this was a disappointing experience. I would not recommend this restaurant. There are far better options in the area that provide better value & service.
I had a braised beef & mash plate & it was the softest cloudiest potatoes I ever ate! So satisfying! Highly recommend
Amazing establishment great service very good quality fresh & the drinks were incredible would recommend to everyone definitely my new go to spot
Benedetta was amazing! The atmosphere is warm & stylish, the service is professional & friendly, & the food is outstanding. The pasta is perfectly made, the flavors are rich & well-balanced, & every dish feels carefully crafted. You can tell the team knows what they're doing. This place is going to become a staple in the city. Highly recommend.
Love the lounge atmosphere with a lovely European accent, where the new integrates quite well with the old. Excellent food, outstanding service too ! I highly recommend it & will be coming back for sure !
I've been coming here for coffee every morning but recently discovered they had a brunch on the weekends! The chicken & waffles is phenomenal here. So are the pancakes. Super fluffy & a generous serving. Highly recommend. Coffee is good too
Super ambiance, un grand merci à Anne toujours au petit soin. Je recommande.
Excellent service, great atmosphere & delicious food! Highly recommend! Will definitely be back!
We're from Vancouver & this is our 2nd visit to Montreal this summer. We always put benedetta on our must visit list. It's our favourite terrasse to grab lunch. The grilled cheese is super rustic & delicious. I suggest getting the arancini ( which are huge) to make it a full meal. My partner always gets the chicken cutlet panuozzos. Highly recommend! Ask for Jordana or Julia! They're fantastic servers & always make sure we're taken great care of!
This is my third time coming to Benedetta , although it's mostly outside & unpredictable the food is always consistent & fresh , we shared the pizza & had a pitcher of sangria that was one of the best in the area & not price gouging like the other spots close by . I have definitely recommended this place , not to mention their espresso is authentic as it comes .
Benedetta is one of the most impressive spots in the city. Whether you're coming for brunch, drinks, or just a good time, everything about the experience is top tier. The atmosphere strikes the perfect balance between trendy & welcoming, with great music, beautiful decor, & an energy that makes you want to stay awhile.
The food is incredible, flavorful, fresh, & plated with real care. The cocktails are just as thoughtful, with a creative menu & perfectly balanced mixes. & the service? Flawless. Friendly, professional, & genuinely attentive.
Whether you're kicking off your day or heading into a night out, Benedetta delivers. Can't recommend it enough.
Super cute place with great vibes & amazing service! Food was unique & delicious & the mocktails were so good! Highly recommend.
