Visiting Montreal to experience the food scene has become our family adventure.

Dinette Marcella did not disappoint. Very cozy ambiance.

The food was phenomenal, the bruschetta was unreal. The meatballs were so damn soft & tender.

I had to try the classic carbonara & it was exquisite, especially with the pairing of the Attems Sauvignon Blanc.

Staff extremely friendly & attentive.

Highly recommend & will return.

Great service, food was delicious, & the water was served cold! The carbonara served with a whole egg on top is a great display of culinary creativity. The balsamic on the salad was appropriately poignant. Service was very attentive.

Really incredible food & dessert. I'm a New Yorker who visits an Italian restaurant every other week because that's New York, but this was exceptional. Salad was a highlight. Tortellini with sausage sauce was incredible. Limoncello strawberry panna cotta on a hot day was such a fresh treat to close out the meal. We sat at the bar & our server was so kind & attentive too. Highly recommend.
