Vraiment décevant!
Le restaurant est neuf, bien décoré, les serveurs italiens, on s'y croirai sauf quand l'assiette arrive.
La foccacia est cramée, il y a 4choix entre les premiers plats & les seconds plats. Les quantités sont extrêmement faibles & la nourriture n'a rien d'exceptionnelle.
J'ai ete particulièrement amusee par les tomates anciennes.. Qui clairement n'en sont pas..
C'est un restaurant aux prix quand meme élevé pour la qualité & la quantité dans les assiettes. Il y a, sur la rue beaucoup d'autres choix, meilleurs & a des prix similaires voire plus faibles.
Je n'y retournerai pas.View more

L'endroit est très joli, la musique pas trop forte, le service très bon.
Cependant, les prix sont bien trop élevés pour la qualité de la cuisine. Les plats sont bons, mais pas assez recherchés pour justifier des prix aussi élevésView more

I was excited to try this restaurant as a fan of La Panzeria, but I was really disappointed. I won't be returning. The food is decent, but nothing special. La Panzeria has a unique & original concept, with a small menu where everything is delicious. In comparison, Bribante has a ton of Italian restaurants competing, & I think it's just okay. The prices are exorbitant for the dishes; for example, the saffron risotto at $32 is really just an appetizer portion in my opinion. The service was excellent.View more

Ristorante italiano a Montreal, cibo pazzesco, personale gentilissimo, musica ottima, e la cosa che mi è piaciuta di più è il locale, in un certo senso essenziale ma estremamente caratteristico, che rimanda molto all'Italia ma modernizzandola, rimanendo elegante e senza essere kitsch. Ho mangiato la burrata, l'insalata, una pasta al pomodoro, le capesante, il loro pesce spada, la tagliata di carne: DIVINO. Davvero, anche meglio di quando stai in Italia. Super consigliatoView more

O serviço é incrível, o restaurante é lindo.. mas a comida achei normal, me surpreendi tanto com o La Panzeria que talvez tenha ficado com a expectativa muito alta.View more

A VERY good option if you are feeling like getting some real italian food, the risotto alla milanese is incredible, the arrosticini along with the the endive salad were the perfect entree for it & balanced out the complete meal. If you don't know that much about italian food I would definitely search up some of the dishes so that you can make the right choices because it worked great for me.View more
