I wanted to love this place but it's just okay. The first time I went I booked a month in advance only to be told when I got there that due to an event we only had 1.5 hours at table which wasn't indicated on the initial reservation. I had to discuss it with the manager which was kinda of embarrassing to get an alternate table but we were now provided one with 3 people squished on a tiny table. The pizza I ordered & dessert were very very good. Second time, my mushroom pasta was delicious but I tasted my friends Alfredo type pasta dish & it was horrible. The Aperol spritz I ordered was basically water & cost 18$. When asking for substitutions none of us were informed of additional charges. Unfortunately the tipping options only started at 18% not sure if that's legal but I think that's a little excessive especially considering our waiter looked like he was sleep walking. I tipped anyways because I know it goes to others besides the server.

Went for supper at this restaurant for the first time.
I ordered pizza.
Looked beautiful, charred edges .
The pizza had no undercarriage,
no colour & drooped when picked up.
Need to improve for me to come back.

Very poor welcome from hostess, not a great start. Pizza is meh. Opportunity to make things right , turn things around but they didn't.

The place is really nice. I want to go back for sure to try the pizzas. My lunch was ok but it was missing flavor. The coffee is amazing & the tiramisu for sure is a must. Can't wait to go back to try something else

Really a great option in the West Island. Awesome spot for some amazing pizza, pasta & sandwiches. Lovely terrace in the back.

Came here with my family & we ordered a mix of pizzas & pastas - everything was really fresh, you could tell nothing was frozen or reheated. Service was great too, very attentive without being pushy. Price was more than fair for the quality you're getting. Nice atmosphere overall, good spot for a family dinner or a nice night out. Would definitely recommend.

Beautiful atmosphere, excellent service & awesome food…Always a great place for a get together! Strongly recommend the eggplant parmigiana & pizza pies (especially the loaded that you can take out :)

Was there for lunchtime on Father's Day. It was busy but the service was still good. Super cute establishment ate on the restaurant side but I'd love to go back to try the cafe side too. The food was good nothing crazy special. The portions were decent maybe a little on the small side but I didn't mind it. The drinks were good too. Totally wanna go back & try the meatballs & the pizza.

Excellent quality of food & service! By far the best pizza in the West Island & one of the best in all of Montreal, if you're looking for proper pizza napoletana. Easily the best cafe in the West Island as well. None of this'grande orange mochachocolatte' nonsense. Just a proper Italian coffee bar with a barista who takes care with espresso extraction. A blessing to have them pop up here!
