The pasta was horrible ! Even my child didn't eat it We order all the pasta of the menu & some appetizers No order pasta here!!! ! The worse pasta is my life ! They should change the menu of pasta !!! Go for drink & appetizers only ! The services was ok , but when they bring the wine they forgot to bring it with the glass & the wind made the bottle to go to the floor & halft of the wine went to the floor because the waiter didn't brought us the case of ice to put the wine … we paid for this bottle come on … I will recommend to go restaurant upstairs are better !! The owner should change the pasta menu urgently!!!! Not good for your business!!
For a restaurant of this caliber, waiting 15 minutes to be seated, another 20 minutes just to receive our drinks, & 45-50 minutes for our food is simply not the level of service one would expect. That said, I do want to highlight that our waiter was exceptionally kind, attentive, & professional throughout the evening.
Capello was such a great experience. The food was amazing, the view is genuinely stunning, & the drinks were spot?on. On top of that, the service was warm & attentive, which pulled everything together into a really enjoyable visit.
Amazing view & the service was excellent throughout the night. The atmosphere alone makes it worth visiting. Unfortunately, the food was pretty underwhelming & didn't really live up to the price or the overall experience. Great spot for drinks & the view, but the food was just meh.
This place was a vibe! From start to finish this place, people, food & environment was phenomenal. Hostess was super friendly, our server was fantastic made so many recommendations & made us feel welcomed & special, Thank you Andy! We visit Montreal from Toronto because of the Food quality & experience- this place topped it for us! You guys are doing many things right & cannot wait for visit again! Highly recommended for just about any special occasion but if not for anything a great night out with amazing vibes, exceptional food selection & delicious drinks!!! Merci Beaucoup!!!
All i can say is vibes were immaculate, food was amazing, drinks were fantastic.
It's the perfect place to bring a date or a girls night out.
If you come around 6:00-6:30, you get to catch the sunset while you eat, or in our case when we were done eating. It was gorgeous.
We sat at the bar & our bartender was, i believe, Marie-Anne. She was so insightful about the menu & explained everything in detail.
When i saw they had a canned of sparkling hibiscus juice, i asked her what it was & i expressed how much i love hibiscus. She gave us a little shot to taste. & she whipped up a cocktail for me! I really enjoyed it!
I would definitely come back & i highly recommend!!
I recently visited this restaurant & had a bit of a mixed experience. To start, everything was actually going really well - the burrata & garlic bread were both delicious & set a great first impression.
Unfortunately, things started to go downhill with the main courses. My partner initially received the wrong dish (though the names were quite similar, so I understand how that could happen), but the staff was accommodating & quickly corrected it. However, my own dish arrived cold, & while I normally wouldn't send food back, I had to ask for it to be reheated.
When the dishes came back, we were surprised by the portion size - the cappelleti plate had only five pieces, which felt quite underwhelming. Taste-wise, the pasta didn't really stand out, & my own dish was extremely over-peppered to the point where it was difficult to enjoy, which was disappointing since I usually love pasta.
We decided to stay a bit longer & ordered another round of drinks, but after waiting around 15 minutes with nothing arriving, we assumed it had been forgotten & asked for the bill. After paying (& still tipping over 15% as our waitress was very kind & attentive), we realized we had been charged for the drink we never received. It turned out it had been sitting at the bar for about 10 minutes without being brought to us.
Overall, the ambiance & view are beautiful, & the service from our waitress herself was lovely. However, based on the food experience, I would probably only return for drinks at the bar rather than for a full meal.
Went for drinks & tiramisu! Truly enjoyed the whole experience. We felt welcome from the first moment (lovely long brown haired lady at the door) untill leaving the restaurant. Carl from the bar was amazing & made me one of the best margaritas in my life! Great views & vibe. Would come again to try the food!:)) thanks!
There's a fine line between creativity & confusion in the kitchen, & unfortunately, @capellomontreal leaned a little too enthusiastically toward the latter.
Italian cuisine has always had a quiet confidence about it - simple ingredients, balanced flavors, & dishes that don't need a long explanation to shine. Here, however, it felt as though every plate was determined to overdo it…
Take the burrata, for example. A lovely ingredient on its own, creamy & delicate. It arrived accompanied by gnocco fritto (deep-fried dough) & a balsamic that somehow tasted like it contained soy. Why? Your guess is as good as mine. It was one of several moments where the food felt'creative for the sake of being creative,' rather than harmonious.
The pinsa wasn't much better. The crust had a burnt bread taste, topped with pepperoni that tasted suspiciously like it had taken a detour through Costco, & any promised garlic flavor also seemed to have gotten lost somewhere along the way.
For our main, we had Radiatori Vodka Piccante. The vodka sauce, which contained sweet breadcrumbs - an unexpected plot twist - & tasted oddly like something that might have come from a jar rather than a simmering pot, also lacked the'Piccante' part.
Dessert brought us a tiny $18 tiramisu that appeared to have been extended with extra cream, arrived slightly hard as if freshly thawed, & for reasons unknown, contained chocolate chunks. Not offensive, just… puzzling.
Service also had a slightly frantic energy. Within the first ten minutes of sitting down, we were visited three times - including once within the first thirty seconds asking if we were ready to order. At 5:30 p.m., with the restaurant nearly empty, it felt less like attentiveness & more like we might be gently encouraged to eat quickly & move along.
Add to that a few small but noticeable details - shaky tables & water glasses that weren't quite clean when we sat - & the overall experience didn't quite match the price point. The plating was also surprisingly simple for dishes positioned at this level.
In the end, one can't help but wonder if the prices are influenced more by the view & the high-rent location than by what arrives on the plate.
Our rating is higher than it should be due to the fact that the cocktails were pretty solid. Same bar as the other two restaurants above it. We would reccomend skipping all three for food, & just drink at the bar instead.
