Food. Fresh & tasty with good portions.
Service. Pretty good & the owner is on the floor tending to patrons with warmth & care.
Atmosphere. Cool vibe with a modern Italian twist.

Overall a very good experience as all dishes had a good portion, good taste & texture & worth the money. Stand out was the chicken parm - fantastic & a repeat dish for me!

Would I go back - yes.

Flaws. No reservations & you can stupidly wait. I don't understand why they do such a disservice to their clients who end up paying for this discomfort. I think it's a flaw to their model & I believe that it would improve customer satisfaction because at the end of the meal, even though it was enjoyable, there was a sour taste for us having to wait such a long time.

Exceptional! I've been to Amerigo so many times for lunch & finally went for dinner. The pasta is just flawless. The ingredients are fresh, it's cooked to perfection. Noah our waiter was absolutely amazing. Professional, courteous, timely. Really made our experience that much better.

One of my favorite things about this restaurant is its location. It's in one of my favorite neighborhoods in Montreal, & in the summer the atmosphere on Monkland is hard to beat. The restaurant itself was packed for a Tuesday night, which made for a great vibe. If you can grab a table on the patio, I'd definitely recommend it. I also liked the casual Italian bistro feel of the space.

The service was friendly & efficient. A small touch I really appreciated was that they leave a bottle of water on the table so you can refill your own glass instead of waiting for service, especially nice on a warm summer evening. They also serve a fresh house salad before the main course, which was a nice way to start the meal, although I found the dressing a bit too salty.

I ordered the carbonara special & was really looking forward to it, but it didn't quite meet my expectations. The guanciale was a little too burnt for my taste, & the cheese was very strong & overpowered the dish; I suspect there was more than just Pecorino & Parmesan. Overall, my pasta, as well as my friend's clam & shrimp pasta, were both a bit too salty. That said, the fresh pasta itself was cooked perfectly. The standout dish of the night was definitely the mushroom gnocchi, absolutely delicious & the one I'd recommend ordering.

The drinks were good (you can't really go wrong with an Aperol Spritz!), & overall I enjoyed the experience. I'd happily come back to try more of the menu, as we've only sampled three pasta dishes. Between the atmosphere, the location, & the welcoming service, I think this place deserves another visit.

Food was amazing! The pasta was fresh, creamy & delicious. Wine was good as well. The pasta comes with a salad that was really good as well. Will definitely come back!

Salad - 10
Spinach arancini - 7
Beef arancini - 7
Sauce average.
Gnocchi - 10. Perfection. We waited almost an hour, but this made it worth it. The sauce was perfect, & the gnocchi was so good - I really felt it was homemade. It was soft & delicious. Only place I like gnocchi. The mushrooms were yummy as well, & I liked the different shapes of mushrooms.
Paper dell - 7 lacks a little salt, I found. Felt like more meat than pasta, not really any sauce. The meat felt a little dry. The pasta shape was so great & felt very fresh.
All in all, cute place - I'll always be a fan. Good ambiance, service is good. Cute dim lighting, perfect for a dinner date with your boo or with your girls. I even waited around 40 minutes in the cold, but it was worth it for the gnocchi mushroom pasta.

this Italian bistro is a must try. The food was incredibly fresh & full of flavor. Everything we tried was delicious, but the standout for me was the octopus salad - perfectly cooked, tender, & so well-seasoned. We kept coming back each time we always find a new favorite dish. Before this octopus salad was the special fish soup

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
