I've been wanting to go to Geppetto & I finally made it. The ambiance was charming & so was the service. We had Ceasar salad, salad niçoise, baked cauliflower, linguini with pancetta & truffle. Everything was delicious. We even asked for a Genoa pizza to bring home. It was delightful. We shall definitely go back whenever we feel like enjoying an Italian meal. 😉View more

Yum yum yum Libation, Gin tonic with mint & cucumber We started with the carbonara suggestion for our first waiter it was delicious but a little oily. Libation, a lovely white wine & the name escapes me right now Then the piece de resistance 4 cheese pizza with extra Italian sausage Our waiters were fantastic, the first young man was polite, & the second one who made our gent tonic & suggested the wine was exceptional.View more

Parfait, le service était extra , le repas etait délicieux , pas besoin de mettre des épices fortes car la viande était de qualité. Ma fille de 4 ans aussi s'est régalé. Le meilleur mexicain que j'ai mangé & pourtant je suis difficile. & pas cher pour la qualité.View more

Decent food slightly overpriced for what it is. It must be because of the hype for this gentrified area...View more

Pour le Geppetto. La nourriture, tant la pizza que les pâtes était excellente, le service attentionné nous a permis de de vivre une expérience très agréable.View more

On m'avait parlé en bien de ce resto & j'ai été un déçue. C'est bon, mais rien d'extraordinaire ; Le prix est cher pour les assiettes qu'on reçoit, surtout qu'Il n'y a pas vraiment d'accompagnement avec les repas. Les pichets sont aussi dispendieux & faibles en alcool. La terrasse est peu intéressante : choix entre des tables à partager avec d'autres clients ou bien être juste à côté de la rue avec beaucoup de circulation de voiture. Je ne regrette pas de l'avoir essayé, mais ce n'est pas un coup de coeur pour mon groupe d'ami-es ; je ne crois pas que nous y retournerons.View more

Nice place with tasty mexican food. Love their terrace with the street view on Notre-Dame. & if you love really sour lemonade, they make a very refreshing one😄View more

This is my favourite pizza place in Montreal & has been for 15 years. It's fun, the food is really good, the atmosphere is perfect for any occasion & the prices are reasonable. & the menu has a lot of options besides pizza, like salads & meatballs & charcuterie & pasta. Also the location is ideal - but don't tell anyone or it'll be harder to get a reservation...thank you Geppetto & thank you to all the staff.View more
