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!
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🙏🏻🙏🏻🎉🎉
Absolutely amazing.
I went there tonight with some family for a joint birthday dinner, & I was flabbergasted.
The food is absolutely delicious. We had burrata, arancini & polpette as appetizers, to start. It's ACTUAL burrata, & not what most places claim is burrata when it's just a piece of fresh mozzarella, & it's slightly expensive but the portion size plus the actually what is advertised is crazy good value.
The arancini were magnificent, crunchy, tasty, full of cheese, in a wonderful sauce. The polpette were crazy tender & very flavorful. The sauce the polpette comes with is different from the one that comes with the arancini, which shows great attention to detail.
Our mains were just as delicious, the pizza dough had delicious crunch & bite, the ingredients were top notch, & the absolutely killer hot oil was the highlight of the whole thing, so much that we asked our waiter what was in it & he actually showed us (I could barely believe it!). The other guests had different pasta, & they were all out of this world. The gnocchi were soft & pillowy, the Mac a la Gigi was spectacular, & the fetuccine really tasted home made.
All in a small cozy space that is homey & comfortable.
& the best part? For the quality of food that you get, the PRICE is impossible to beat. Honestly, it's very affordable food. Almost too affordable, & most likely has to do with the location, which is a bit weird right at the line where VSL goes from industrial to residential, but more power to them, since they price their food very reasonably. In any other part of town our bill would've been 50% more expensive.
TL;DR - go there. You won't regret it.
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!
J'ai commandé plusieurs fois en ligne par le passé mais sur ma commande d'hier je remarque que les quantités ont nettement diminuées mais pas le prix : cavaletti avec une sauce à la viande mais plus de morceaux de viandes comme il y avait avant & portion qui fait moins de la moitié du contenant. Pâtes gigi: pas de pancetta comme annoncé juste quelques tranches ultra fines de champignons.
Très dommage d'être rendu là pour des plats de pâtes à 27 & 29$ avant taxes, ça fait cher même si c'est bon.
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.
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.
I ate here a couple of times & it's always very good! As a vegetarian my go tos are the Fettuccine rose - super delicous homemade pasta with a creamy sauce - & the Quattro pizza - four types of cheese with caramelized onions that I can't have enough of. Staff is always very friendly.
Je viens de découvrir ce petit restaurant italien & je suis absolument enchanté ! Les pâtes fraîches sont délicieuses & la sauce était à tomber par terre. Le service était chaleureux & attentionné, l'ambiance était conviviale & authentique. Je me suis senti comme en Italie ! Les prix sont raisonnables & la qualité est exceptionnelle. Je recommande vivement ce restaurant à tous les amateurs de pâtes fraîches. 5 étoiles bien méritées, je reviendrai sans hésitation pour goûter d'autres spécialités!
Excellent service & plaisir gastronomique pour les 5 sens! Pizza, pâtes fraîches, sauces délicieuses, sans oublier les desserts incontournables. Merci pour ce délicieux lunch & à bientôt!
Excellent rapport qualité prix. Les pâtes sont très bonnes, bien fraîches & la sauce est goûteuse. Satisfaits de leur pizzas également. Atmosphère plutôt familiale. On a attendu vraiment longtemps pour nos drinks alors que le resto n'était pas plein. Le staff est sympathique. On commande encore souvent là, mais on prend pour emporter.
Coupable, je ne suis pas aller en restaurant mais je veut clairement essayer l'expérience Brama en succursale la prochaine fois. J'ai commander Uber pour essayer voir, je ne suis pas aussi déçu que je le pensais. J'ai commander 2 Pizzas 1. La Mortadolce (fromage Oka, Mortadelle, pistache, miel & parmesan épicé) 2. La Sopressata(Soppressata épicée, bacon fumé, mélange de quatre fromages, fromage fior di latte, champignons, olives vertes, oignons caramélisés, sauce tomate) Elles étaient incroyablement délicieuses, je suis vraiment dure sur les pizza de style Italiennes mais sincèrement, Brama est clairement dans mon top 10 de la meilleur Pizza au Québec. J'ai commander les frites au parmesan, une belle déception, aucunement le style de frite que je pensais, elles étaient fades, brune & le même goût que celle de la belle province. Toute mouillé & aucunement croustillantes. La mayo au parmesan était bonne au moins. Les arancinis une autre déception, 4 mini boule a 12$ ça fait extrêmement cher pour dequoi aussi petit & peu goûteux. J'ai gouter mieux comme Arancini & à meilleur prix. Le prix des pizza étaient très abordables pour une pizza de qualité supérieure, ce qui ma attiré a essayer Brama. Les frites & arancinis ne sont malheureusement pas un succès tant au niveau du prix que de la saveur. Un bon 7.5/10 pour la livraison, je ne doute pas que en salle c'est beaucoup mieux.
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.
I live in little Italy & this is better than 99% of the pizza in my area. We started with Arancini balls. Crunchy on the outside, gooey & earthy risotto in the middle with a great tomato sauce that brought just the right amount of spice. Margherita which is the benchmark for any pizza place. Crust is thin, spongy, chewy, & crispy all at once with a delicious balanced sauce, mozzarella, & basil. The Quattro frommagio which had of course the same crust. With a beautifully comforting combination of 4 cheeses, & caramalized onions & balsamic to cut the fat a little. A very good combination. We finished with the tiramisu & pistachio cheesecake. My girlfriend loved the tiramisu & I fell in love with this pistachio cheesecake. It was like a mix of a regular cheesecake & some decadent creamy baklava. Both things I enjoy thoroughly. You guys are great 👍 I hope you stick around for a while
