Wonderful meal, service was absolutely stellar, refilling wine glasses & clearing plates. I had the Spaghetti Romanoff & it was absolutely delicious. Mike made us a special dessert plate to share at our table. Great recommendations for wine as well.

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.

Delicious food. Staff treats you like family. Portions are generous. House wine is flavorful. Decor is somewhat dated but the food & service is the headline. Try the veal!

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!!

Service Service Service :) :) :)

Our waiter was very helpful & knowledgeable ( he makes a mean cosmo)

We began with boconcini tomatoes & sausages.

Then came the Chicken Parm & Puttanesca Penne ( my wife's fav )

Half way through her pasta she ordered a tiramisu to go - when she does that it's a sign .

The wine recommendation made Rita happy'Wine is good for Angelo when Rita has a second glass.'

Wonderful experience & fantastic food. The lasagna is in my top 10. Cute atmosphere & attentive staff. Don't let the location or surrounding creepy businesses discourage you from stopping by.. large wine list.

If you are looking for a cozy place for authentic Italian, this is your place!! Portions are excellent, & the warmed bread that comes with is perfect to get every bit of sauce as you don't want to miss a bit. The staff had the same excellent customer service towards my daughter as they did my husband & myself, which is refreshing as it makes it truly a family experience. Staff is knowledgeable to help you with a wine pairing to suit your taste. Staff are also bilingual which is a bonus. A go to spot for my family in Montreal for sure. Thank-you to the establishment for an experience & an evening.

Excellent food, service, nice music. Worth a visit. If you have time to get your flight from Montreal YUL, seat there & ask anything, drink a wine, enjoy some relaxing time. Mangia, che ti fa bene.

This was a nice, quiet place off the beaten path, very close to the airport. So close we walked from the Sherton Hotel. Easy walk. Great food. Loved the sauce. While you waited for the meal, it came with 2 sour dough rolls. They have a large wine fridge. The seating was on the nicer side, but others had on casual attire, yet you could dress up for a nice dinner as well. Both would feel comfortable. Price was as expected for such a restaurant. Great experience. I would go again.
