Reviews describe Bistro Amerigo as a cozy, neighborhood Italian bistro in Montreal with a simple, honest menu of well executed classics made with fresh ingredients. Diners repeatedly praise the gnocchi, meatballs, arancini, and a wide range of pastas and seafood, noting generous portions, comforting flavors, and a homey atmosphere that suits lunch or dinner. The wine list and service are often highlighted as warm and attentive, though several comments mention long waits for tables due to no reservations, crowded spaces, and occasional inconsistencies in service. Standout dishes such as vongole, octopus, and tiramisu or cannoli are frequently cited, while a few visits are described as pricey for the area. Overall, the restaurant is seen as a genuine Montreal gem that delivers authentic Italian food with personality and invites guests to return to try more of the menu.
What a sweet spot!! It feels like you are having supper with family. Everyone enjoyed their meals, ranging from pasta to meat. They start you with a complementary salad of mixed greens & a yummy dressing.
They don't take reservations so keep that in mind but the service is fast & the food is delicious 😋
Bistro America absolutely blew me away! They organized a beautiful, intimate private event for our club & everything was just perfect. The food was AMAZING-& I'm a tough critic!
The beet salad was OUT OF THIS WORLD, the focaccia was WOW, & the polpettes…ouf 😮?💨 My mama makes the best but these came very close (sorry guys but my mama's polpettes will always be #1). The pasta was cooked to perfection with just the right amount of cheese👌🏼& that dessert platter: STUNNING! I may have hogged the tiramisu because it's my favorite dessert & this one was juicy, creamy & absolutely delicious. I'm craving it again as I write this!
The service was impeccable. The atmosphere felt so homey & welcoming. I'm definitely coming back with friends & family.
Thank you Bistro America team for this unforgettable night!
We adore this place. The food is excellent , the service as well. Food is so tasty & fresh. It's my personal favorite, my daughter can't get enough of the Linguine Vongole & other family members all have their own go to dish that they crave. Big thumbs up
What an unforgettable dining experience! From the moment we sat down, we were taken care of by Roberto, who was an absolute gem of a server-sweet, warm, & authentic. He made us laugh, told stories like everyone's Nonno, & made us feel right at home.
The food was phenomenal. We started with the veal meatball-tender, rich, & perfectly seasoned. The seafood platter was fresh & generous, & the linguine with sardines was a standout-bold, flavorful, & done just right. We finished with a crisp, creamy cannoli that hit the spot.
The ambience was exactly what you'd want for a cozy Italian dinner: dim lighting, a little loud, but so familiar it felt like a big family gathering. Highly recommend-can't wait to come back!
Loved the food! Came here as a group of 4 on a Tuesday evening. We ordered a lot of food & we're very pleased! The service was very family style & laid back, the restaurant is small & cozy. The prices are reasonable but mainly the food was very tasty!
All the pasta was good, the appetizers as well.
We had the calamari, mozzarella di bufalla, shrimp ravioli, duck ragout pasta, Italian sausage pasta & braised beef. All delicious! Thank you
Where do I even start! You think you're waiting a long time, but the second you get there they give you a complimentary salad, bread, & 5 smiles. A burrata to start, perfect. Now comes the star: the truffle gnocchi & the à la Norma! These 2 dishes paired perfectly together. The gnocchi is PERFECTION but very rich. & the Norma balances it out. These dishes are so good, it felt surreal. & then we ordered dessert, a perfect end to the meal. Tiramisu & pistachio gelato, so light. The real highlight, besides the amazing food & beautiful ambiance, was the service. We felt like part of the family by the end. Everyone there was so welcoming & loving, & they just wanted us fed. Such a warm place to be, we must go back next Thursday!

Well I previously reviewed this place years ago after being treated very rudely in front of my little girl on her birthday & gave it an excellent rating on bread but on service, not even 1 star. I swore I would never go back & purchase another loaf of bewad although my family loves the bread. We stayed away for years, & then wirh my go ahead my husband started on a rare special occasion buying the bread again. This image is the inage i took after msking my first purchase after over 5 years of never stepping foot inside again. The place was newly renovated & the staff was friendly andprofessional & had a warm disposition about themselves. The bread is still very good & the cookies. I willbe back & contonue to come bavk as long as i & my family have a humane experience no matter if dealing with the owner or the staff.
Such a wonderful family owned restaurant. The food is delicious,service warm & efficient. It has small seating & a very cozy atmosphere, first come first serve. I enjoyed myself so much. I can't remember enjoying a restaurant to that level. Highly recommend.
This is an amazing family owned local Italian restaurant. Everything on the menu is beautifully, prepared & delicious. The entire staff is friendly & welcoming & they always make you feel welcome & at home.

Excellent, high quality food, super friendly staff, very reasonably priced, we simply loved it. Family run business, the place you want to go back to again & again.
Beautiful restaurant ambience with soft music & an intimate setting. After one visit, this is my favroite Italian restaurant. It blew away expectations. My friends & I shared around 8 dishes & every single one of them was fantastic. I don't think you can go wrong with the menu. Service is exceptional. You are treated like family & they make sure you are taken care of. Couldn't ask for me.
We enjoyed a very nice family meal, seated outdoors on a beautiful evening, with wonderful hot fresh delicious food, & very attentive service. Wonderful place!
