A journey into the imagination to forget oneself and rediscover oneself in space and time. Where guests are actors in an orchestrated performance... To celebrate the miracle of life.
Overall Café Miracolo draws diners with a stunning eclectic decor and a lively festive ambiance that feels chic and welcoming for a date night or a group dinner. The freshness of ingredients and inventive dishes is frequently praised from carpaccio and burrata to pasta and seafood, with cocktails also earning high marks and tiramisu noted as particularly good. Service is described as attentive and friendly, though some experiences mention slower pacing when the venue is very busy. Standout items include mortadella, arancini, octopus, and cavatelli with lamb ragout, with a generally well valued wine list, though a few drinks or pours may be smaller or uneven. Portions are sometimes considered small for the price and some reviews note that sharing mains can be misrepresented. Overall Café Miracolo is a top Montreal pick for Italian inspired fare with a vibrant atmosphere, and many say they would return to explore more dishes.
My third time here, & it still has yet to disappoint. I was welcomed in by their host who, as each of my visits, was professional & warm. He sat me at the bar, where I was well taken care of by the bartender, Francis. I unfortunately did not have a cocktail this time, but he was happy to make conversation & make sure all my needs were met.
A fresh menu gave me something new to poke my nose into this time, much to my excitement. I tried the Cavatelli. I was served an enticing plate of creamy green goodness. The pasta must've been fresh, as it was deliciously tender, every bite felt just right. The sauce was just as pleasant. The rich saltiness from the Parmesan evolved the subtle garlic flavour. The bread crumbs on top? Also perfectly right, a fantastic addition that gave the dish a touch extra complexity. I was also endeared by their willingness to use every part of the broccolini rather than just the'fun parts'. Could've used a bit more depth, maybe some lemon zest could've been fun. Maybe I'm just a princess.
Funny enough, speaking of lemons, what does one do when given some by life? Well, if you're in charge of the menu at miracolo, you're making lemon pie. Masterfully so, in fact. Some kind of person decided it would be a good idea to throw on some hardened melted sugar on the top of it as if it were a creme brulee, & I love them for it. Just delicious. Fully recommend.
Also, had the focaccia with tomato paste. No notes. As always, incredible. Get it. You have 7.50$ extra to spend, I promise.
A big congratulations to the hard working kitchen, & the welcoming front of house. Thanks for serenading me with Jazz & giving me the meal I was hoping for after a brutal Montreal Canadiens Playoff loss.
We had such an amazing evening at Cafe Miracolo. We brought our entire company - around 85 people - for a seated dinner, & the experience was incredible from start to finish. From the planning phase all the way through to the end of the service, everything was handled seamlessly.
The space itself is beautiful, & people absolutely loved the vibe of the restaurant. The food was great, & the staff were so accommodating & attentive, especially with a group of our size.
Would definitely come back - whether it's with friends or another corporate group. Highly recommend.

De la réservation jusqu'à l'addition, nous avons tout adoré! La nourriture est délicieuse, le menu de groupe à partager est généreux, le personnel est professionnel & à l'écoute. Je vous recommande sans hésitation! Merci encore
Nous sommes allés au Café Miracolo à l'occasion de la Saint-Valentin hier & nous avons adoré l'expérience du début jusqu'à la fin. Le décor est magnifique, les plats étaient travaillés & délicieux & le service que nous avons reçu de la part de Christie est la raison pourquoi je rédige ce commentaire ! Même si toutes les tables étaient occupées, elle s'assurait de remplir notre eau, changer les couverts & faire une belle transition entre chaque plat : nous n'avons jamais eu à demander quoi que ce soit, elle voyait tout d'elle-même & était hyper rapide. Je pense que son service & son attention au détail sont les éléments qui ont rendu notre soirée encore mieux que prévu. Je recommande fortement !
On est allés au Miracolo hier pour la Saint-Valentin & on a vraiment adoré notre soirée. On était assis au bar & c'était une super belle expérience: les cocktails & les huitres 🍸👌. L'ambiance était parfaite, chaleureuse & romantique 🥰
Le menu 5 services était vraiment bon. Chaque plat était délicieux & bien présenté. Le service était attentionné & super agréable. On recommande sans hésiter 🤍
Wonderful Food! I highly recommend starting with the burratini followed by the Osso Buco paired a white wine! So delicious! The staff was incredible sweet, special shout out to Francis for the great service!

We had a lovely first experience at Miracolo. The food was very good, the atmosphere was genuinely vintage (& reminiscent of my childhood) & above all, the service was excellent! I would definitely recommend this restaurant.
La nourriture est tellement incroyable que j'ai dû revenir le lendemain! Les deux soirs, les deux serveuses étaient incroyables. Je recommande vivement cet endroit. Merci encore à la serveuse de bordeaux
In Montreal for 3 nights & this was a last minute & late night decision to wait 45mins in our vehicle until we could get a reservation on night #3 @ Miracolo. We had been cruising the streets popping in & out of curated vintage stores for most of the day & had walked by Miracolo prior to it opening its doors for the evening. We said to each other this place looks interesting as we pressed our faces up against the glass to witness the restaurant staff having a pre opening group discussion. At that point we knew this place was different & we wanted to find out how. We circled back later in the eve to find it rammed & bustling with patrons & resto staff appearing cool as cucumber as they managed dishes & cocktails. We realized a table wasn't an option @ that time but, we would attempt to get a seat later. We found another place to eat it but, soon after found ourselves sitting at the Miracolo bar finding out what the noise was all about. Patrons seemed hip, upscale & likely foodies of all ages but mostly 25+. It operated like a well oiled machine & smooth deliveries that seemed to go without mistakes. Top to bottom the whole place operated in synchrony, staff with pleasant demeanor & a willingness to engage with its patrons. We chatted with the bar staff most of the night who let us in on its history & design. Sipped on cocktails made with purposeful execution to provide a willingness to try a different one or repeat the order. Negronis outside of the norm & a fantastic Pisco Sour not often found in most establishments. Although we only had tiramisu it still warranted a 5* cause it hit the spot with being light & not espresso heavy for 2 people with already full stomachs.
The interior you could find yourself just casually finding the plays on religion, vintage lighting, curated knickknacks & appearance of an establishment 80years older then its 2year age.
By no means have I been paid to write this review. We both love food & experiences as we travel for both personal & business reasons. When we find somewhere special we like to take the time to show our gratitude of a fantastic experience & share with others.
Highly recommend this place & in hopes of my next visit to go again.
This place is absolutely stunning & the food is phenomenal!!! I had the tasting menu & every dish was a hit! They were even so sweet to swap the steak out with octopus which was mind blowing!! Osi the hostess provided exceptional service & the staff worked so well together. I highly recommend this place. I can't wait to return when I'm in Montreal again!!

Visited many of Montreal's most well-known restaurants over the past week & have to say that this restaurant blew most of them out of the water! It truly was an amazing meal, with one dish being even better than the next. Can't recommend it enough.
The food was delicious & full of flavor. I especially recommend the cacio e pepe & the pizza - both were excellent. However, the portions felt quite small for the price, which made it seem a bit expensive.
Nous allons y retourner. Un vrai coup de coeur. Boule aranchini un vrai délice. Burrata, Carpacio de boeuf gouteux.Les raviolis au maïs & sauce au maïs sublime, wow. Les pâtes sont tous fait maison. Raviolis al dente, un vrai exploit. Le maïs est cuit en épi le matin même ,épluché & coupé de l'épi par le chef pour toute sa préparation. On recommande La tarte au citron fini comme le croustillant de la crème brûlée & un tiramisu bien crémeux. Merci au chef Justin pour cette belle soirée gastronomique!!!!
Très bon restaurant dans un quartier mignon. Le personnel a été incroyable & les serveurs n'ont pas hésité à faire des recommandations les deux fois où nous sommes allés. La nourriture est excellente! Belle ambiance cozy mais chic
