Birbante

Without a doubt amongst the best Italians you can find in Montreal.

Birbante's kitchen puts emphasis on quality & simplicity as a faithful ode to traditional Italian cuisine, while still providing fresh & modern takes on classic recipes (i.e. Nduja Risotto & the Doppia Bruschetta)

They'll never fail to make you feel welcome & at home with their great staff, meaning that you'll typically go back home with a full belly & a large smile. Remarkable how they nailed bringing an authentic Italian spirit all they way to Montreal.

Only danger is that if you go once, you might just find yourself going again & again.

Birbante was incredible! We were a group of six girls & shared everything - & honestly, every dish was amazing. We started with the doppia bruschetta (absolutely delicious!), the burrata, & the endive salad - all so fresh & full of flavor. Then we had a risotto & a pesto pasta, both super tasty & perfectly done. Our waiter was amazing - he explained the menu so well, was super generous, & made the whole experience even better. We finished with 4-5 desserts & devoured every bite. The place itself is beautiful - the décor is super cool yet cozy. 100% recommend!

I was hoping to get an authentic Italian experience in my area, but unfortunately, this restaurant was quite disappointing. Having spent time in Italy, I've come to appreciate the balance of quality & portion size - something that was lacking here.

The food was underwhelming & quite expensive for the quantity. We actually left still hungry. I ordered the clam pasta & ended up having to return it (something I rarely ever do) because it was overly salty & the pasta itself was dry.

On the bright side, the service was excellent - they were kind enough to replace my dish with another option from the menu. We finished with a tiramisu, hoping for a better impression, but it too was a bit dry.

Overall, great service but disappointing food for the price.
