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

Beau restaurant près de l'aéroport, pour agrémenter un séjour avant ou après un vol.

I came here for lunch during the week, & overall it's a decent restaurant, especially given the location. The service was great, both waiters were very fast & attentive. The restaurant was clean & tables were well spaced. However, the food was ok & I had higher expectations for an Italian restaurant. The salad was very plain with a single olive & tomato slice & lots of salad leaves. I had parmigiana as main course & there was nothing wrong with it per say, but it was just ok. For dessert, we were served carrot cake which was actually really good. Otherwise, it's a decent place & I would probably come back if in that corner again.

It was dark. The specials were written on a black board in an illegible way. The waiter upsold us the starter & made an inappropriate comment while we were ordering & then was very dismissive as soon as we paid the bill.

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.

The food is always excellent! Last night it was busy with several big groups, so it was noisy.

I ate a pizza which was great. It was hot & tasty. I ordered some garlic bread for starters but it was never served. The waiter, of course, accepted to remove it from the bill.
