Downstairs private room was great for our function. Staff was friendly & on top of everything.

Sevrvice très bon digne d'un restaurant haut de gamme, malheureusement la nourriture est arrivé froide & clairement pas à la hauteur d'un restaurant de ce prestige & surtout de ce prix. Mon filet mignon n'était pas à la cuisson demandé en plus d'être froid & fade en terme de goût. Au final je ne recommande pas ce restaurant, il y à clairement mieux dans Montréal & surtout beaucoup moins dispendieux!

All posh pandering. No substance. Food is mediocre. This place is good for people who like to feel pompous & get pampered by people in suits.

Came here for dinner last night with a colleague on a business trip. We Were seated right away.
Bread, oil, petite toast bruschetta & olives were served while we looked at the menu.
Many classic selections to choose from. I had to have the pasta Bolognese, Which was very tasty. My colleague had the mushroom risotto which was also very delicious. Many protein options including A5, shanks, tomahawks, etc.
Great ambience. Was not loud & were able to hold a conversation all night. The host & their team were very attentive & courteous. Ended the night with lemon cello on the house which was a very nice touch by the host. Thank you for taking care of us!
Will definitely come back when I return.

My wife took me to Da Vinci Restaurant for my birthday. So let me give you the run down of the evening.
We shared 2 starters the Octopus & calamari. Cooking Octopus is an art. Way too easy to turn a perfectly good piece of Octopoda into a rubbery mess, well not at Da Vinci. Our chef Alessandro has mastered this practise & the Calamari were just as good.
The mains were black Cod & New York Strip loin. Our dinner was a quiet affair as we indulged in our meals. Enjoying each bite. Chef Alessandro was on his game tonight.
The service was Exemplary. Attention to detail was at the forefront of this dining experience. Carlo & Raymond were simply amazing, treating us as long lost friends & ensuring that we enjoyed every part of the evening.
My only regret is in fact my mistake. I didn't snap any pictures of our evening & no pictures of the meals.
Thank you Da Vinci we will come back.

We had an early dinner.before a show. Our server, Carlo, was fantastic. We had a few pieces of lamb & the salmon crudo to start. The salmon was great. The lamb was probably the tastiest, tender lamb I've ever had. We ended up deciding to share the tomahawk. It came out perfectly rare & served with a selection of potatoes & peppercorn sauce. The steak melted in my mouth. The peppercorn sauce was fantastic.
We finished off with a trio of cannolis. A first for me, but definitely not the last.
Everything recommended by Carlo was delicious. Our drinks never ran dry.
Thank you for an excellent dinner.

DaVinci Restaurant is by far one of my favorites! The waiters make you feel like a princess-they even bring you food before you've finished ordering. The espresso martini & king crab legs are absolutely the best. Honestly, whatever you feel like eating, they'll make it happen. Lavi makes you feel right at home, & the whole place has such a welcoming yet fancy vibe. It's also a great spot for a romantic date, & they have private rooms available for group dinners. Truly a 5-star experience!

Da Vinci Ristorante is, without question, one of the finest Italian restaurants in the city, delivering an unforgettable dining experience that blends authentic cuisine with impeccable service. From the moment we stepped into the elegant yet warm ambiance, we were transported to the heart of a traditional Italy cuisine.
The highlight of my evening was the rack of lamb (picturef), cooked to absolute perfection, tender, juicy, & bursting with flavor, with a rosemary infused crust that elevated every bite. My meal began with the salmon tartare starter, a delightful symphony of fresh, velvety salmon, accented with zesty citrus & delicate spices, a true testament to Da Vinci's commitment to quality ingredients.
The service was nothing short of exceptional. The staff was attentive, warm, & genuinely invested in making our evening special. The atmosphere, with its sophisticated yet cozy vibe, made it the ideal setting for a memorable night out with my wife, brother-in-law & sister-in-law.
Da Vinci Ristorante is a gem that exceeds expectations, offering world-class Italian fare & hospitality that leaves you eager to return. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a culinary experience that's as heartfelt as it is exquisite.

We were a group of four ladies who went to Montreal from Sherbrooke for a concert. Since the concert was an Italian opera singer & it was one of my friends birthdays we decided to have Italian! This restaurant was perfect!! The staff were all SO nice! Our waiter was able to answer all of our questions & made recommendations that were delicious!! They were very accommodating for our group & the food was DELICIOUS!!!! I only give it 5 stars because I can't give it 10!

I am editing this to update as we went back to this restaurant last night. It was an incredible dinner again & the service was still outstanding. (We even had the same waiter!). We were a group of 5 this time & it was even more enjoyable. We used the valet parking this time which was very helpful to not have to worry about that. & it was really convenient!! Make a reservation beforehand though. I had the same dessert, they had changed the menu a little bit & the thing that I ordered last time wasn't on it anymore. I asked the waiter & he said oh let me recommend this, & he did & it was delicious. Even my picky husband was super satisfied & left not one bite of food on his plate!! You won't find a better place for service, quality of food, or atmosphere. If you are in Montreal you should definitely make this a place that you eat!!

Da Vinci exceeded my expectations. Lavi helped make my birthday better than I could have ever imagined. Excellent service, incredible food & beautiful decor. Thank you 🤍 🎂

The vibe? Gorgeous. The service? Super friendly & on point. But let's talk real the prices are way too high for what you get. Food was very, very average… definitely not matching the bill. With so many nicer (& tastier) options in the city, Da Vinci just didn't wow me enough to go back. Cute for the ambiance, but not worth the splurge .

Nevermind the food which was excellent. But an employee named Anton went above & beyond. I'll save you all the story but mark my words more Antons are needed in this world.
