Review Summary

Overall impressions of Focaccio point to a warm, authentic Italian dining experience near the airport with a free shuttle and friendly, attentive service; guests note generous portions, a broad menu ranging from pizzas and pastas to seafood and veal, and solid to excellent flavors with some standout dishes like vongole linguine and lasagne. The atmosphere is described as charming and inviting, with old world character and a welcoming vibe that makes diners feel at home, while the service is praised for being helpful and courteous though a few visits mention fluctuations during busy periods. Prices are generally reasonable for the area and the wine list is well received, with desserts such as tiramisu highlighted and the chocolate gelato noted as special by some. Some criticisms mention inconsistent execution, oily dressing on a Caesar salad, dry chicken in certain dishes, and noise or space challenges in a busy room; delivery or takeout experiences are mixed, with occasional reheating or packaging issues. Overall, Focaccio is recommended as a reliable, cozy option for travelers and locals alike, likely to inspire return visits.

5 star .. the place is not that big but very fancy inside. Food is amazingly good. Compliment to the chef! I ordered pasta Primavera & it's not in the menu & I asked if they can make it, yes they did. Although its not the same as the one i tasted in Quebec, but it was delicious. My friend wanted pin?a colala drink also not in the menu, but they made her something similar without the coconut flavor but taste is close to Pina colada. They have a free shuttle pickup for nearby hotel & our driver is the young wizard of Oz. Our server is Carl. All the staff is super nice & very courteous. Highly recommended.

Shuttle driver Oz was super nice & personable, he also assists all
Around the dining room. It is a nice service in that everyone (3-4 servers) all help all
Over the room. Food was good, my pizza was excellent, both pastas were good, the Cesar salad was not good (as per my daughter who eats Cesar's everywhere we go) dressing felt oily & chicken was dry & romaine a bit wilted.
All in all I would return, super cute spot with great service .

We were recommended to eat here while we were staying at the Sheraton in Montreal from a gentleman at the front desk. To say we were so happy with the recommendation was an understatement! The resteraunt offers a free shuttle to & from the hotel (make sure to have cash to tip the driver). It has been awhile since a gentleman has pulled out my chair in a resteraunt. This place is full of old world charm, & an understated class that you feel. The vibe is warm & it's clear that there is generations of love inside of these walls. The service was outstanding!! Carl was responsive & very kind, & knew the menu inside & out. The food was delish & the wine list versatile. The ride back to the hotel the driver was so kind & personable. I can't say enough positive things. Skip the chain resteraunts, this place is warm & homey & the food is brilliant. Thank you we will return.

Nice little Italian eatery. They have a free shuttle service. Staff are friendly. Food was cooked well & proportioned as per pricing (not too much, but not skimpy, & decent quality.) Not cheap, but not overly expensive. If you want a good meal or a place to take a date to, this is it.

Friendly service. Sergio Pizza was crispy just enough cheese . The bruschetta & the cesar salad with chicken hit the spot . The lobster ravioli very good . White & red house wine was good . No room for dessert . Wife liked the bathroom because it is private. Not like public bathrooms with no partitions . Shuttle service . We were picked us up at the hotel & were driven back . Grazie!!

Pretty regular, nothing too impressive, but no negative comments overall. We ordered a margarita pizza, which is normally fresh mozzarella & basil, but it turned out to be just a cheese pizza. The service was fine however & they also have a driver (shuttle) with a minivan who picked us up & dropped us at a nearby hotel, which was nice.

Good food & service. Beware however of restaurant provided shuttle service. After having driven us back from the restaurant shuttle driver demanded a tip. As is my custom to provide tips for good service I dont like to be shaken down for one. Unfortunately a fellow passenger felt intimidated by this a reluctantly gave him money. All this left everyone upset after what should have been a nice dining experience. I recommend using your own transportation or, if impossible find an alternative restaurant

We were picked up by (free) restaurant shuttle at Aloft airport hotel! We shared a Quatro Fromage pizza (Sicilian style) & eggplant parm. All delicious. Our waiter was great. Leftovers packed for plane travel. We are coming back on our way back from vacation.

Went this evening with our basketball team. They served all of us tremendously well. Food came at a timely manner even with our large group. They had a complimentary minivan shuttle service from our nearby hotel. The food was delicious. & the staff were very attentive.
