Les avis sur Cafe Gentile évoquent globalement une cuisine italienne de qualité, des plats variés et bien préparés, des pizzas et des pâtes très appréciées, et un café souvent loué; l'ambiance est décrite comme chaleureuse et accueillante avec une déco soignée, propice à la convivialité et à des repas en famille ou entre amis. Le service est majoritairement attentif et efficace, même lors des périodes très occupées, mais quelques retours mentionnent des délais plus longs ou une expérience de serveur inégale; certains plats sont jugés un peu chers ou ne satisfont pas totalement (sandwichs, plats servis tièdes ou manquant de saveur), tandis que d'autres critiques insistent sur des portions généreuses et des saveurs réussies. Malgré ces nuances, l'impression générale est positive et beaucoup évoquent leur intention de revenir ou de recommander, en soulignant que Cafe Gentile offre une expérience plaisante, une atmosphère conviviale et une offre variée allant du petit-déjeuner au brunch et au dîner, avec une attention particulière portée au service et à la qualité des produits.
Visited Montreal & my friend highly recommended this place & it did not disappoint. Amazing pasta, delicious appetizers & the coffee is a must try along with a Zeppole! Service was excellent but make sure you make a reservations as this place gets busy fast for lunch or dinner! Located 15 minutes from the airport!
Cafe Gentile was recommended to me & my fiancé to provide catering for our recent wedding, & we could not have been happier with the result. The food was absolutely incredible, & the service & attention that the catering team provided to us were exceptional. Every single person at our wedding commented on how delicious the food was. The eggplant parm has quickly become one of my personal favourites. We will absolutely be returning to Gentile (most likely the DDO location) whenever we find ourselves back in Montreal.

Today is Lunar Chinese New Year, & we had a festive dinner in cafe Gentile. We had such a wonderful time! The food quality was excellent, the atmosphere was joyful, & the staff provided outstanding service. Highly recommended!
I came here for a business lunch & it didn't disappoint, so many great things to choose from! I had the Tagliatelle Funghi which was really delicious! I highly recommend this place
Cafe gentile westmount….oh my goodness. We had our 18 person wedding dinner here. The custom wedding menu was so incredible, the food was 12/10 & the service was nothing short of exceptional.
More & more food just coming out & each course was so tasty, had beautiful presentation & more mouth-watering than the last course. Our guests were raving about this being the best wedding meal they've ever had.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND
I was in doubt about going to this place because of the mixed reviews, but I'm happy I gave it a shot. My family & I went for brunch & the food was amazing, along with the service & atmosphere. Always filling our cups of water when they were empty, & making sure we had everything we needed in our table. Totally recommend!!
Alloo! On est allée auj pour un brunch de fête après un cours de spinning sans réservation & le staff a été très gentil & nous ont trouvé une table pour 7! Le service à la clientèle est À+, toujours souriantes & la nourriture était très bonne !! Je recommande & je retournerai dans le futur!
Been to Gentile for several years, even when I worked near Chabanel. The food is always delicious with great presentation. Their rosé sauce & fresh pasta is one of the best in the city, as is their margherita pizza. This visit had some amazing sandwiches, the classic chicken cutlet & the Caesar chicken wrap. So fresh & delicious. But don't forget to wash it all down with their savoury fries, the perfect compliment to any dish on their menu! Too full this time for dessert, but I highly recommend their cannolis & tiramisu. You will definitely need a reservation for Friday or Saturday nights!
Ice tea is always crisp & I highly recommend it. Their sandwiches & pasta are also good. This cafe has a great location with a great design. However, the fries were not that good.
This restaurant is a local favourite of ours. We love sitting in the glassed in porch area 3 seasons of the year, love the food, & the inside is very cute, with nice leather benches, muted lighting, & reflective surfaces that give it a great vibe. They also have the best pistachio gelato of anywhere, & with the soft Sicilian biscotti on top, it's to die for, & you can get it to go if you're just strolling by. We reserved the inside restaurant for a function Saturday afternoon for 28 people & it went absolutely great. There were delicious appetizers (arancini, focaccia pizza, caprese skewers), great first course served family style (loved especially the endive radicchio salad & the fried calamari!) & great second courses with eggplant parmigiana, grilled branzino & vegetables, meatballs, sausage cavatelli) & for dessert our favourite gelato & biscotti. The service was great, plates cleared promptly & fresh ones brought, drinks filled, & it was a great atmosphere. We loved having the whole place so we could switch between tables & talk to each other without bothering other diners. Really, really happy with the experience! Totally recommend!
