A favourite amongst Montreal’s foodies, BEVO Bar + Pizzeria invites you for some fine Italian dining, original cocktails and a fresh ambiance. Seven days a week, chef Giovanni Vella cooks up traditional Italian flavours with a few signature twists. The restaurant’s specialty: authentic wood-fired pizza.
Two spacious floors, a fully stocked bar and convivial seating set the stage for an enjoyable meal every night in Old Montreal. Aperitivo Happy Hours come to life with special deals on drinks from 4 to 7 p.m., and our DJs bring a musical vibe to the place with freshly baked pizza until the end of the evening on Fridays and Saturdays.
During the summer, you can lounge on the terrace sitting right on Saint-Vincent Street – a pedestrian stretch bustling with friendly locals and artists.
The BEVO famiglia will be expecting you with a tasty Italian meal. Buon appetito!

This place was a miss for us.
We had the arancino which was delicious. However for our mains we got a pizza & the chicken parm. Chicken parm was not bad but it was quite thin for the price, & the gnocchi was underdone. The pizza (Parma in Bianco) was quite flavorless & disappointing.
Our server was fantastic though!
J'ai pris la pizza Margherita & elle était super bonne pâte croustillanterwlativement mince ingrédients frais. J'ai ajouté un peu d'huile de piment maison, ça donnait juste ce qu'il faut de punch. L'endroit est beau & le service était agréable. Belle découverte !
We stopped by Beva Pizzeria during a day trip to Montréal from Toronto after seeing its solid reviews & reputation as a go-to spot for pizza. It's located in a busy, tourist-friendly area, so we figured it would be a safe, easy lunch option with decent quality. We were also pretty hungry, so pizza felt like the perfect pick.
Our server was friendly & welcoming, & when we asked for recommendations, he suggested their most popular pizza-the Cotto E Bocconcini-along with his personal favourite, the Parma In Bianco. Both came out relatively fast, which was a plus. Service overall was efficient & the atmosphere inside was actually quite nice: bright, warm, & cozy, which gave off a good first impression. The place was also relatively clean & dust free which is a big plus.
Unfortunately, that's where the positives ended. Both pizzas were, to be honest, very underwhelming. The Cotto E Bocconcini & the Parma In Bianco were extremely salty, & the cheese used didn't melt properly-it had a rubbery texture & sat on top of the crust in an unappetizing way. The overall flavour was flat, & the crust itself tasted bland & dry, especially around the edges where there was barely any sauce to bring it to life. It all came off tasting like cardboard. There was nothing satisfying or crave-worthy about either pizza, which is disappointing considering this place is literally known as a pizzeria.
We both had a hard time eating them, but since we were starving & didn't want to carry leftovers around for the rest of the day, my boyfriend ended up forcing his down. Unfortunately, he felt sick pretty much right after-which says a lot.
I'm honestly shocked at how highly rated this place is. I understand it's in a tourist-heavy area, & sometimes those spots can ride more on location than food quality, but still-it's surprising how off the mark both pizzas were. We really wanted to like it, especially with the friendly service & inviting atmosphere, but at the end of the day, if the food doesn't hold up, it's hard to justify a return visit. Not worth it for the price, & not something we'll be coming back for.
Nous avons eu un formidable service de la part de Gian Carlo qui a su nous recommandé des mets délicieux nous faire passer un agréable moment en terrasse à ses petits soins.

My wife & I were at Bevo several years ago in Old Montreal. It was near our hotel & we felt it was a great find. We are back in town & returned to Bevo this Sunday night. What a great experience. We ate outside on a quiet side street of old Montreal. The hostess greeted us with a smile (always a great first impression). Our served came over & said she would be with us in just a minute (always a great second impression). Sure enough she soon returned & introduced herself as Dahlia. Dahlia was obviously adept at managing her tables. She helped us pick a pizza, made great wine suggestions & was right on it if we needed anything. Dahlia did the same for all the other tables around us. She made it a perfect night. Thank you Bevo for having such great staff.
At a very lively location. Service was great. Food is good, not great. The pizza crust is great but their tomato sauce was missing something. Cocktails are overpriced.
Second, The crust is perfectly crispy, the sauce is tangy, & the cheese is melted to perfection. The toppings are fresh & generous, & the staff is friendly & attentive.
Kids friendly (as you can see from the picture), cozy atmosphere, great prices, & exceptional quality.
I will definitely come again & try other stuff on the menu.
If you're a pizza lover like me, this place is a MUST-VISIT!
Excellent dining experiences at Bevo on 23 April. We were a big family with small children from Australia & our waiter, Yani, looked after us with impeccable service & wonderful warmth! Thank you for giving us an enjoyable, fun & yummy lunch!
