I had the pistachio affogato at Novanta Café & it was absolutely delicious! The creamy gelato paired perfectly with the espresso, & the pistachio flavor added a delightful touch. A must-try for anyone who loves a refined coffee experience.

It feels like home! Food & coffee are really good but what makes it truly special is Rocco, Marco, Antonietta (their mum), Audrey & Alex :)

C'est Coup de Food qui m'a fait connaître l'endroit. Après notre visite c'est le coup de foudre qui même si on est un peu loin nous fera revenir. J'ai été en France, en Italie & jamais je n'ai goûte un croissant aussi bon que leur croissant à la pistache.
Le sandwich a la mortadelle servi spécialement pour nous était à' ok, je peux mourrir jai goûte l'excellence...'
Fantastique
On en a profité pour acheter leur pesto à la pistache & quelques pate italienne.

Endroit très chaleureux. Proprietaire & employés très sympathique. L'offre de nourriture est varié & le café est bon. Ce n'est pas du 3e vague acide. Le banc extérieur est super pour mes eschions.

This is my favorite cafe in the city. They have fresh baked goods & delicious sandwiches everyday & the best coffee ☕ I've been able to find. I go as often as possible & would recommend it to anyone. It's run by two brothers & their mother from Italy & they have a small staff who are all very nice & the place is very clean & well managed. I have several dietary restrictions & they're very attentive about it. I've never had a bad experience & I look forward to many more visits.

5 étoiles partout pour ce café où l'on peut aussi déguster toute une palette de spécialités italiennes, sucrées ou salées. Qualité des produits, authenticité des plats, toute la saveur de l'Italie transportée à Montréal. Sans parler de la gentillesse de l'accueil & du service. Au comptoir ou en cuisine, chacune & chacun veille sur vous avec attention & sourire. Mention particulière pour Audrey & son sourire, bien charmante hôtesse. La Mamma veille sur toute l'organisation avec ses deux fils, on pourrait être à Florence ou à Naples, on se sent (très) bien. Terrasse lorsqu'il fait beau, une salle agréable. De beaux produits italiens à vendre sur place (pâtes, café...). Très recommandable à tout point de vue ! Merci pour tout & à bientôt j'espère.

It's a very nice place. Loved their hot chocolate & their croissant was fresh & not too buttery or heavy for my stomach. The staff are very friendly.
