Excellent service & amazing food!
I've only ever had the cavatelli's from Brama through delivery before this dine-in experience & it was so good I couldn't even imagine how it would taste fresh at the table. They really did not disappoint.
I spent about $275 for two people but I also paid for all the appetizers for 4 people & a drink.
Cavolo Riccio salad (Beets, goat cheese & apple in a kale salad): it was delicious & creamy but a little bit too sweet for me since I wanted something more refreshing. I was mind blown though because this salad tasted exactly like a CREAMSICLE.
Arancini: the sauce was good, everything had great texture, it wasn't dry, very cheese & fluffy. My friends loved it.
Octopus: very delicious, slightly tangy & sweet. The texture was perfect & I like the little pieces of potatoes in there.
Lamb chops: WOW. It was the star of the show. Comes with 3 pieces but you can add another piece for $9. The sauce was refreshing- minty I think, the lamb itself was seasoned to perfection, it wasn't too gamey, so tender & juicy. I would be happy just eating that all night.
Linguini seafood pasta: pasta was cooked just right, seafood was tender & the sauce was very light, very light on the salt & easy to eat. Delicious!
Bolognese Spaghettoni: the texture of this pasta was phenomenal. I love the bite it has, the sauce was delicious but very salty. I love salty foods so it was perfect for me but might be hard for the average Joe to eat.
Fettuccini Rosée: I normally do not get a plain rosée pasta since it's easy to make & seem so simple but WOW I regret not getting that myself. It was so good, flavours were perfectly balanced & I love the pasta shape.
Gnocchi Pancetta: I wasn't too wowed by this but maybe because the gnocchi was so soft & pillowy I was very surprised! I think it was a texture thing for me but I'm sure making gnocchi that soft must take a lot of skills so I would recommend it if you like soft gnocchi/foods!
Définitivement un des meilleurs restaurants Italiens en ville! À 5, on s'est séparé plusieurs entrées (burrata, polpettes, aranchini, pieuvre, calmars frits, salade césar), puis les cavatellis, les gnocchis & la pizza mortadolce. Tout était succulent! J'enlève une étoile pour le service (ne venait pas nous voir souvent, long avant d'avoir de l'eau, un drink oublié). On a tout de même adoré notre soirée. 😊
The cavatelli with braised beef & mushroom was one of the best pasta I had in this city.
The taste is completely unique, & satisfying!
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🙏🏻🙏🏻🎉🎉
Wow! That's the best way I can describe Brama.
From beginning to end I was impressed. Not overdone, no over the top gimmicks (as we see today everywhere).
It literally reminded me of the'non-touristy'restaurants you find in back alleys all over Italy. Just absolutely spectacular food, combined with the warmest ambience. This cozy restaurant feels like you're going to eat at your nonna's house.
Took my father there for his birthday & could not be more pleased. Calamari & octopus as entrées. Both spot on! The flavours exploded in our mouths & were a good sign of things to come. We then shared a beef cheek cavatelli that was to die for, a pizza that, through my taste buds, brought me back to Naples & the gnocchi that melted in the mouth as ice cream on a hot summer day. We ended with the pistachio cheese cake that had an explosion of perfect flavour combinations.
Honestly one of the best places I've eaten at, in & around Montreal. You can tell the Chef puts his heart & soul into the menu & that the entire team has love for their place. To top it all off, the staff was knowledgeable & super friendly (bartender made a phenomenal dirty martini… or maybe two). All that at VERY reasonable prices.
A true hidden gem that you absolutely need to try! Bravo for a complete & utter masterpiece!!! Will 100% be back.
Ps: I noticed an army of non-stop delivery drivers coming in & out (in a convenient side area to not'bother' the customers… smart) so I'm presuming that you can also order out & savour at home.
Fantastic food & great service. This was a personal recommendation from a friend at it was great. The Cavatelli was amazing & the pizza was too. Friendly staff & the chef John the pistachio cheesecake 😋 was delicious.
Après avoir eu la chance de déguster le Mac alla gigi & les cavatelli braisé. Je peux dire que c'est dans les meilleures pâtes que j'ai eu la chance de manger!
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!
Absolutely phenomenal experience at Brama!
From start to finish, everything was exceptional. The burrata was bursting with flavour & served with perfectly grilled, seasoned baguette slices-truly a standout. The radicchio salad was unbelievable, & the cavatelli? To die for.
Service was outstanding-our waitress was warm & attentive, & we were lucky enough to meet the chef, who not only came out to chat with us but also generously treated us to two incredible desserts.
The tiramisu was easily one of the best I've ever had, but the pistachio cheesecake was next level. Light, perfectly baked, topped with fresh cream & a hint of orange blossom-this dessert changed my life.
I can't wait to go back. 100/100! Highly recommend!
We came here on a Friday afternoon & ordered two pasta dishes to go. The location is industrial, with free but limited street parking only.
The restaurant has a small & cozy dine in area & separate area for take out orders.
We tried the pappardelle Bolognese & cavatelli al guanciale. We noticed for some items the pricing online differed from the menu on site - the prices were cheaper online. I am not sure if this is because the menu wasn't updated or perhaps there is a different charge for dining on site.
We immediately went to the car & tasted the food, the pappardelle is described as cooked in a'slow cooked meat sauce with beef veal, pork & fennel sausage' however the sauce tasted more like plain tomato & was slightly too acidic. It was missing some sweetness & there wasn't nearly enough noticeable meat. The pasta was otherwise well cooked but this was an average dish. I would not re-order.
The cavatelli on the other hand was extremely flavorful, a rich creamy sauce that was very decadent. The only drawback was the shape of the pasta, these looked like fat maggots.
In terms of pricing & portion, I thought this was pretty fair since this is supposed to be fresh handmade pasta.
The location itself was difficult to get to for us & the size of the restaurant was quite small for dine in, we would have to make sure we reserve in advance if we planned on coming back.
Un perle rare!
Notre incontournable pour nos envies de cuisine italienne, avec un coup de coeur tout particulier pour les cavatellis au boeuf braisé. Un délice!
Ambiance du restaurant & décoration du restaurant super & service toujours excellent!
Je recommande à 1000%
Was impressed with the reviews & thought I'd give this place a try. We were warmly greeted at the door & promptly sat at our table. We were immediately advised of some items not available on tonight's menu. George our waiter was kind & patient & we really enjoyed his service. He told us about tonight's specials & left us time to make our decisions. We shared the mortadolce pizza as an appetizer. The flavours were very good but I think the hydration of the dough wasn't high enough. I think a bit more work on the dough recipe is warranted. The pasta plates were the real winners. My wife's Mac a la Gigi was delicious. A bit of spice & a complex tomato sauce. Was a special dish. My Cavatelli with beef cheeks was also incredible. The complexity of the sauce teemed with the super tender & delectable beef cheeks was a dish I will crave. For dessert we shared the pain perdu. It was good with its honey & nuts with cinnamon. & a scoop of ice cream. Reminded me of the taste of Loukoumades. Prices were reasonable & a revisit is a must. Highly recommended.
My partner & myself tried this while we were in the neighbourhood. She had cavatelli: fantastic blend of flavours, well cooked & generous portion. Myself I had the prosciutto pizza with olive instead of parmesiano: fantastic thin dow crunchy yet not chewy with quality ingredients, & they properly put the prosciutto on top of the arugula after exit of the oven to keep it as crudo & therefore flavourful as possible. Cherry on the cake, staff is friendly & quick.
I've never understood people that keep going back to the same establishment. This place turned me into a regular & I must of eaten there food over 30x & have catered on multiple occasions with high praise by all my guests. Braised beef cavatelli is melt In your mouth, Gigi pasta is fire! The pizza's are top notch. You can really feel the chef cares! What a gem!
Un trésor caché à Montréal : Brama Pour la deuxième année consécutive, notre équipe a choisi le restaurant Brama pour célébrer notre souper de Noël, & encore une fois, c'était l'endroit parfait! L'expérience culinaire est tout simplement inégalable. Ce restaurant italien excelle dans chaque plat. Nous avons commencé avec une incroyable salade de betterave, suivie d'une salade César & du meilleur tartare de saumon que j'aie jamais mangé. Les arancinis étaient divins, tout comme les polpettes. Pour les plats principaux, les pâtes étaient spectaculaires. Nous avons dégusté des cavatellis & le fameux Mac GiGi, & chaque bouchée était un pur délice. Les pizzas Américaine & Margarita ont également été un gros coup de coeur. Le service a ajouté à la magie de la soirée. Georges & Jessie, nos serveurs, étaient attentifs & chaleureux. Quant à Elio, notre barman, il a su concocter des cocktails parfaitement adaptés à nos goûts & a même pris le temps de capturer une photo de groupe mémorable. Le décor de Brama est enchanteur : à la fois cozy & romantique, il crée une ambiance parfaite pour toutes les occasions. & que dire de l'ambiance musicale? Elle a charmé toute notre équipe. Je recommande sans hésiter ce joyau bien caché de Montréal. Merci, Brama, pour une soirée inoubliable!
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!
The best hidden gem in the neighborhood! Everything we tried was absolutely amazing & everyone there was so friendly. We started with the beet salad which was delicious & had a very unique mix of flavors! We also shared the Cavatelli pasta & salsiccia pizza & we highly recommend them For dessert, their pistacchio cheesecake is a must try Will definitely be going regularily from now on!!
Meilleur repas depuis longtemps au resto après une grosse journée de travail! Ma collègue & moi avons pris des arancinis en entrées, une pizza végé & des cavatellis à la joue de boeuf braisée comme plats principaux. On a tout partagé question de goûter à plusieurs choses sur le menu pour une première expérience dans ce resto! Tout était EXCELLENT! Les arancinis sont croquants, fondants & goûteux... Ne vous fiez pas aux petites taches de brûlé sur la pizza, ça donnait du goût & la pâte fond littéralement dans la bouche... Les cavatellis crémeux à souhait... Georges notre serveur était telllllement sympatique! Toujours le sourire aux lèvres! Un vrai plaisir de se faire servir de cette façon! La dame près de la caisse ainsi que le cuisinier nous ont aussi fait la jasette tout sourire! Très agréable.... Le seul mini bémol, (& je comprends que la salle à manger est nouvelle), c'est la déco... Ça manque d'amour mais, Georges nous a assuré que ça allait s'améliorer prochainement... J'irai voir ça sans faute!
I had a wonderful experience at this restaurant. The Burrata was a beautiful appetizer to share with my partner. The Burrata was fresh & the salad that came with it was delicious. The Cavatelli dish was a delight. The portion was generous, the braised beef cheek melted in my mouth. The sauce was flavorful. This dish is one of my favorites. The linguine al Pollo was an excellent dish as well. The hot meals arrived steaming at the table, we could not ask for anything better. The service was impeccable, the staff were courteous & very kind. This restaurant is worth discovering. The only downside we noticed was that it got cold quickly inside when the delivery people or customers entered.
