Tasty & fresh Italian food in the neighborhood. The pizza & zucchini fries were amazing. Tiramisu was quite average for an Italian restaurant. Service was slow during lunch hours, but the vibe was nice for a weekday afternoon.
This relaxed elegant eatery features traditional Italian dishes, including pasta, wood-fired pizzas & a variety of delicious options. The service is meticulous, though sometimes slow. They offer a wide variety of wines & cocktails, but a limited selection of beers, which can be enjoyed outdoors on the terrace during the summertime.
This was a great spontaneous choice. Peter was our waiter, he was attentive & pleasant. Our food was great & portions were sizeable.
We ordered the:
Melanzane - Layers of roasted eggplant, marinara sauce, mozzarella & ricotta cheese, served with marinara or bolognaise. $22
Polpettini - Tomato sauce, crumbled Italian meatball, red peppers, basil, mozzarella & ricotta cheese. $24
Cannoli Cheese Cake.
I only gave it 3 out 5 stars for atmosphere because competing loud sources of music at the bar & in the dining room that made it difficult to focus. & the cold air coming from the window.
This is a great Italian joint to grab some good pizza & pasta. Both of which you can't go wrong with. Place was quite busy, so the servers were always on their toes. The wait wasn't that bad for the food. The portions were generous.

We were impressed. (She served our adult table as well as the table where my teen daughter was celebrating her birthday with friends. Kaila was wonderful with them.) We hadn't been at Del Frisco's in a while, but we will certainly come back more often.

Had a great evening dining with friends in this nice Italian restaurant. Too bad the weather was not present to eat on the terrace. The food was delicious & service was great & respectful. Love the pizzas or the mussels. After 20h when buying a beer you get a discount on pizza I believe!
Good things: - vine quality - vine price - have indoor / outdoor sitting - food came fast Opportunities: - server served the pasta & asked if I would like cheese. I said yes, & didn't get the cheese for over 5 min & required to follow up. My food got cold - there was no check back - it is an Italian restaurant, but I didn't not hear even single Italian song. This restaurant is in Montreal. So I would expect at least to get French songs if not Italian, yet it was English songs looking like radio station. Music play role in the ambiance & very important.

Nice restaurant ambiance. Family friendly & staff are professional & very courteous! Food is a typical Italian good quality classic restaurant. Vibrant flavors & well executed on details. Pizzas, pasta, grilled meats & salads are delicious!
It started off a bit rocky, the maître D was a bit snooty & yelled at at to shut the door (we were holding it open for a mother carrying a baby & her husband). We got seated, the tables are very close together but it wasn't uncomfortable. The waiter was very friendly but not overly. Came at the right time & didn't bug us with annoying small talk. Overall the food was pretty good. Definitely "fast food" Italian but not bad. In other words the pasta isn't made fresh & the sauces are standard. The crouton in the Caesar were bad, oily & not edible. But everything else was pretty good. Huge portions & REALLY good dessert I would certainly return & skip the croutons. The pictures are the linguini rosé Primavera, Caesar salad & the chocolate cake.
A hopping & well known Italian eatery in the West Island, deserving of the praise earned over the years. We visited on a Monday night & it was exceptionally busy, even following a heavy snow fall (always a good sign). The oversize single-page double-sided menu has all the options you would expect from a restaurant of this type...a nice selection of appetizers, a grouping of salads, & choices of pastas, pizzas & some fish & meats. For our meal we started with the Minestrone Soup (very good, maybe a touch too much pepper but still very enjoyable with plenty of veggies) & the special of the night Broccoli & Zucchini soup (very good), followed by Vegano Salad ( a plant based chicken salad with a sweet & spicy Szechuan style sauce...it was absolutely huge...equivalent to 3 portions for us!!!! - See the video for reference) & Louisiana Salmon (excellent...also with a huge portion of mashed potatoes & veggies on the side). We ended with a very moist & tasty layered chocolate cake (the downer was they use Hersey syrup for the chocolate sauce...very noticeable). Service was very friendly with a special call out to Maddie who took great care of use, ensuring the food came out quickly & all of our needs being taken care of. Certainly worth a visit...consider it as part of a dinner & movie plan as the Guzzo theatre is 50m around the corner. Enjoy!
Generally a solid restaurant & used to be my Italian affordable go to in Montreal until I had 3 bad experiences in a row with their chicken Parmesan- which was one of the best tasting & texture in the city for the money. But when I had 3 times a rubbery & odd texture chicken breast on 3 different occasions, where twice management insisted there was nothing wrong with the chicken breast thigh it was very undesirable - I decided to call it quits. But this week my dining partner wanted to go & well, I am a gluten for punishment - or so I thought. This time I ordered capelinni pasta with half bolognese & half marinara sauce & it was perfect. My dining partner had their 7oz roasted chicken breast with veggies & a house salad. Both were just fine & the breast was actually cooked well & no odd frozen like rubbery chicken breast - whew. This being stated one issue I have here all the time - is the unreasonably loud noise level most of the time, especially during key days & times. This was especially nasty when we went, as there were 3 parties going on, however, there appeared to be a kids party where the adults decided not to calm the kids in the slightest even though they were clearly screaming in the restaurant en mass & where the entire restaurant was overrun with the noise. Management did nothing to try & deal with the blatant inconsiderate lack of parenting from the adults. I'm fine with kids parties & with noise, but when you cannot hear the person sitting in front of you (because of one tables being too loud) that is just way too much & not acceptable. This is not a McDonalds this is a classy family-ish dining restaurant with a fine wine list & bar. This was wrong on so many levels from a (lack of) management that I won't even comment, & also wrong from the adults (perhaps parents?) who just gabbed amongst themselves & didn't pay any attention to the kids. So lesson here. Though the server was lovely & great at getting the order & the meal was delicious, I have to think twice if I wish to refer people here again - if they are looking for a decently calm environment & if they wish to be able to relax & speak comfortably with the people they are trying to have a nice dining out experience. You get my point right? So to note, all their dishes are great, French fries are one of the best in town, wood oven fired pizza is great, all pastas are spot on & their appetizers are great too. If it were not for this experience I would say go, go now, & have a chicken Parmesan while you're at it. But one I would not recommend the chicken Parmesan just to be safe & two, I do not know what hours coincide with one's desire to eat/dine in a calm environment. For the price there are many places to have equally great Italian food without the noise level & crazy kids parties. So you choose. Food wise, you should be just fine & the atmosphere is actually nice as is the bar with the big screen TV's to enjoy sports events while eating & drinking. If you have kids - given management does not care about its clients enough to calm noisy kids down, bring them there as this would be perfect for you & your kids, & why not have a kids party there instead of McDonalds & feed the kids some yummy quality made food. Who knows, maybe this becomes the next best place for kids parties with adult quality Italian cuisine with great alcohol Anyway, enjoy & don't forget dessert. I'm not a chocolate person but I did try their heated up chocolate brownie al la mode with vanilla ice cream & drizzled chocolate chips & chocolate & caramel syrup. Wow is all I can say !!! A must have, maybe start with this & then order food later.

Del Frisco's is easily one of my favorite Italian restos. Penne alla Gigi & fried calamaris never disappoint!! The resto's vibe is also very nice to go with a group.
Great Italian food & wood-oven pizza in the West Island. Spacious dining area & a great bar section for a quick pizza or drinks. We had appetizers (deep fried calamari & fried zucchini), & they were both delicious, crispy, & abundant. The Pollo Classico as fantastic -- we chose a mix of delicious pasta alla oglio & grilled vegetables as our sides. This meal also comes with either a soup or a salad (at $4 more), so we were stuffed ! Great ambience too !
What a great dinner! I haven't been in a long time & wanted to try it since I looked at all the great reviews & it didn't disappoint. The service was fast & the waiter was super nice. The food was also delicious. I'd highly recommend it to anyone in the area for some great Italian food. Thanks again.
