Overall, Carrera's resto is seen as a reliable, cheerful hangout offering solid fare, great coffee, and a unique, car loving atmosphere.
Absolutely awesome place. Service was super cheerful & nice, the pizza was super tasty, & so was the butter garlic fries & poutine. An absolute gem, don't pass up this place!!
Great service & very welcoming staff! The poutine & smash burgers were delicious. Iced espresso was perfect after we finished our food, despite my insistence that I was fine to drink my espresso even though it was a little too sweet, they insisted on remaking it, which though unnecessary, was very appreciated :)
For those of you that love sports/race cars, there's a good chance you'll see at least one customer pull up in something that peaks your interest while you're there.
Though we don't live in Laval, as soon as we're back in the area we will for certain be back! It's worth the detour!

This place has such a nice atmosphere. The decor is chique. The staff is super friendly. I get a family run business vibe & it makes it that much more inviting. I hate to say it but the food was so okay. The smash burger lacked flavour, salt & pepper (the bun was great though). The fries in the poutine had a frozen potato taste to them. The sauce also lacked definition. For all I know their pizza & coffees are good, but from the food I did try, I was deceived. Needless to say, I still think it's a cute spot for the area, & I wish the owners the best.

Ordered two cheeseburgers, pepperoni pizza, garlic fries, & chicken poutine. The pizza crust was fantastic. The burgers were the best I've ever had in the area. The garlic fries were addicting. The poutine was real great. This is the first time we've tried the place & it definitely won't be the last!
The ambiance is super cozy & relaxed but modern. I ordered a pizza, a poutine, & a burger. It was enough to share with me & my two boys. The prices are affordable, & the portions are generous. The quality of the food does not disappoint & it's extremely fresh. My coup de coeur was the hamburger. I got a cheeseburger with everything in it. It was juicy. The bun was not dry but like a fresh brioche bun that doesn't over power the hamburger. I really like the fact that you can go with your kids or with a friend for a coffee & a pastry.
If you haven't been to Carrera's Resto yet, you're missing out on a hidden gem! From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere welcomes you with its warmth & charm. The food is nothing short of spectacular. The pizza is decadently delicious, with a perfect crust & toppings that will leave you wanting more. The smashed burger? Absolutely smashing in every sense - juicy & packed with flavor. Don't even get me started on the onion rings - they are a crispy, golden masterpiece! & the poutine? So yummy, it's a must-try. Let's talk about drinks - the Freddo espresso is hands down the best I've ever had. Perfectly crafted, it's the ideal pick-me-up for any coffee lover. The staff are incredibly friendly & courteous, making the entire experience feel like a visit with friends. To Peter & Georgia, wow! You've created such an amazing place. A true must-try for anyone looking for great food, fantastic drinks, & a cozy atmosphere. We'll definitely be back!
