Review Summary

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.

Small quaint place & full of people. Obviously a well known place in the area as a lot of people seemed to be regulars. Food & service was good. Salads included in your order ! I'd go back.

Ambiance décontractée, service efficace & excellente nourriture qui vaut le prix demandé même si un peu plus dispendieux que j'aurais cru.

We wanted to try out this restaurant for a while now, considering my husband has the same name as the restaurant . The restaurant was very busy ....we were advised a half hour wait time for a table ... after 60 mins ....i walked in to ask what the status was on our table ... I was shocked by the comment I received from the MANAGER of the restaurant .... He told me "the more I ask , the longer I would wait".... I couldn't believe a manager would say such a thing as you would think his patrons would be of his utmost priority ....Needless to say we stayed for dinner despite this rude comment, lack of people skills & poor customer service. Food was great but after his arrogance & rudeness we have decided to never return back. Real shame !
