Pièce de résistance was their food (calamari, gnocchi, ceasar salad, Margherita pizza & linguini), staff service & establishment. A win win restaurant for typical homemade Italian to soothe the soul. Keep up the amazing work!
Fantastic Italian food with authentic flavors! Everything was fresh, flavorful & beautifully prepared. It was delicious, warm atmosphere & excellent service. Can't wait to come back!!!
Last night, we had the pleasure of enjoying a wonderful meal with friends at Brama. While it was their first visit, we had dined there several times before. The stakes were high, as all of our friends are Italian (unlike my husband & I), & their opinion of a restaurant representing their native cuisine mattered greatly. We were a group of four couples.
We began with the calamari, which was light & crispy, served with a flavorful tarragon mayo. While we thoroughly enjoyed it, the portion felt a bit small for the price. The other three couples opted for the octopus salad, beautifully presented with fresh, delicious ingredients. It was a definite crowd-pleaser.
For the main courses, our group enjoyed a variety of pizzas & pastas, all of which were delicious. We ordered the Quattro Pizza, which surprisingly featured a blend of six cheeses, caramelized onions, & arugula. Although I typically don't enjoy salad on pizza-& didn't notice this ingredient listed on the menu-it turned out to be a pleasant surprise. The soft, airy dough with just the right amount of crispness was outstanding, especially paired with the hot honey on the side.
We also shared the ricotta cavatelli with beef cheeks, mushrooms, truffle sauce, & fior di latte-something our friends also ordered. This dish is truly a staple at Brama & an absolute winner. The melding of flavors was mouthwatering & not to be missed.
Another couple enjoyed the cavatelli with spicy sausage & raved about it as well. Additional dishes included a variety of pizzas-Soppressata, Mortadolce, & Salsiccia-a carnivore's dream that our group found flavorful & satisfying.
We toasted the evening with a Ripasso & a Chianti wine, along with Italian Birra Moretti, Heineken, & Sol beers.
Dessert featured carrot cake, hazelnut cheesecake, & a mixed berry gelato. All were enjoyable; however, the carrot cake-normally a favorite of mine-fell a bit short. It was slightly dry & lacked flavor, with minimal icing.
Overall, it was a lovely conclusion to a meal that satisfied our palates & made me proud of my restaurant choice. My Italian friends were genuinely impressed & confirmed they would definitely return.
A special mention goes to Courtney, our energetic & engaging server, who was friendly, professional, & knowledgeable, offering thoughtful details on every dish.
As always, John, the master chef, delivered a stellar experience that truly impressed our Italian guests.
The vibrant staff, inviting atmosphere, & exceptional food combined to create a memorable evening we won't soon forget.
Thank you🙏🏻🙏🏻🎉🎉

A wonderful discovery! The Italian cuisine is truly delicious & authentic, with flavorful dishes that are beautifully presented. You can immediately see the attention to detail. The staff is extremely friendly & attentive, which makes the experience even more enjoyable. Will most definitely go back again to try more dishes! Thank you!
This is my second time ordering from this Italian restaurant through Uber Eats, & it's just as delicious & fresh as if I were dining there in person
A wonderful spot! The food was absolutely delicious! An excellent Italian restaurant. Will definitely come back
I'm so glad my friend brought me here! I've never been to Italy, but this feels like the closest thing to it. The food, the atmosphere, & the service were all immaculate-truly nothing negative to say. This is easily the best Italian comfort food I've ever had. Thank you so much for such a wonderful experience-I'll definitely be coming back very soon!
We had a great experience here! Our server Courtney was lovely, she had great recommendations & knowledge of the menu. The cocktail that was their version of a spicy margarita was delicious. All the food we had was great & came out quickly. Would definitely recommend to anyone that loves quality Italian food.
Hands down the best Italian restaurant in Montreal. The pasta tastes like it's straight out of Italy - perfectly al dente with rich, authentic sauces. The atmosphere is cozy yet elegant, & the staff make you feel like family. Every dish, from the antipasti to dessert, was flawless. A must-visit if you love true Italian food!
I do not remember the last time I wrote a review for a restaurant . Went to dinner with my wife at Brama. One of our friends recommended it.
Being of Italian descent, I don't often eat at Italian restaurants & often times get disappointed.
Started with grilled octopus & kale salad.
Probably the best grilled octopus I ever had. Kale salad was perfectly balanced. Both portions were very generous.
Then we ordered the mac alla Gigi pasta & grilled salmon.
Hands down one of the best grilled salmon dishes I have eaten . The pasta was outstanding.
All the food was served hot & ingredients extremely fresh. Price point very reasonable in today's market for the quality of food received.
Thank you to John for the incredible culinary experience. Complimenti to you & your staff .
I must also acknowledge the service we received from our waitress. I apologize for not asking your name.
Will definitely be back very soon & I will get your name next time!

Brama has quickly become my favorite Italian restaurant in Montreal. The food is incredible, both in taste & quality. The service is great & owner is very nice!
I would recommend sharing a bunch of plates to try as much as possible. Everything is so delicious, from the starters to the desserts.
My favorite is the cavatelli al guanciale - & that's coming from a girl who doesn't usually like mushrooms. Also their oysters are the best I've had!
Calm Italian restaurant, the waitress was super nice, accommodating & patient. The food was delicious. They had a special on their pizzas on Monday night (50% off second pizza)
It's excellent , the best Italian food in MTL. The rib eye is delicious & I highly recommend the octopus, Cesar salad , salmon tartare. My go to restaurant & Im never disappointed!
My fav Italian spot in MTL. The pasta never misses. Gnocchi is outta this world.. will be back!
The Best Italian Restaurant in Montreal! My wife & I absolutely love this place. They have the best Caesar salad & pizza in town! The staff are always friendly & efficient, making every visit a comfortable & enjoyable experience. Highly recommended!
The best Italian I've had in Montréal & potentially the best I've ever had. The seasoning was perfect, the food was delicious & the pasta was cooked to a perfect chewiness.
Food was really good overall, one of the most underrated italian place ive ever eaten at. Tried on uber eats once & was hooked. Will come back again for sure.
Brama is by far the best Italian restaurant in Montreal! Chef John is the most hospitable cher/owner, making you feel welcomed & at home every time. The food is always top notch, especially the grilled octopus entrée & the Cavatelli braised beef pasta bowl (to die for!). Not to mention, their heavenly cheese cake to top it all off. Can't recommend this place enough!
I cannot put into words how spectacularly outstanding this place is in every conceivable respect. Everything I am about to say doesn't even scratch the surface of what you can expect from this place. My girlfriend & I have gone 3 times in just the last 7 days because we have been positively floored by absolutely everything we have had. At this point we're just going down the menu & are continuously getting baffled by how exceptional every new dish we try from this place is. There is truly no restaurant I have ever tried that exudes such passion & love for delicious food of the utmost quality as Brama. Every dish is made fresh, in house with sourced ingredients of the utmost quality imported directly from Italy. The pizzas are absolutely to die for made on fresh homemade pizza dough the Italian way as God intended. The pastas are all freshly made in house from scratch & lord have mercy can you taste it. The noodles are always perfectly aldente, the gnocchi are fluffy pillows of pure ecstasy, the radicchio salad still has me & my girlfriend fantasizing about it, & the homemade pistachio cheesecake is just inexplicably exceptional. Even the coffee is among the best you'll have. John & the team take everything you love about Italian cuisine & do it leagues better than what should be humanly possible. Though the food is worthy of a master's thesis in Italian culinary perfection unto itself, I cannot post this review without highlighting with the utmost gratitude & respect the absolutely outstanding staff & consequent service you will get here. Everybody who works at Brama is exceptionally kind, respectful, professional, provides fast service & clearly has passion for the restaurant they work for. I have never seen anything like it. You've really outdone yourself John. Though we only met you this week, you will always have our support. Keep doing what you're doing & never lose that passion. The world needs more chefs like you.
