Gallo Nero offers a warm and lively atmosphere with friendly staff and a welcoming vibe, and live music or entertainment often enhances the evening. Many reviews praise delicious Italian dishes and good service, while some note small portions, dishes that are tasteless, a limited menu, and occasional missteps with drinks or with staff knowledge, as well as a very loud dining room and higher prices. Overall, the feedback suggests a memorable experience with moments of excellence alongside some drawbacks, and many diners express a desire to return.
We were a group, & the waiter seemed in a hurry to serve us the water & wine our boss had purchased, without even asking if we wanted cocktails. He never offered us the drinks menu. As soon as we finished eating, he rushed to clear the plates & the bread, without checking if we wanted to continue enjoying our meal.
What you ask for is what you get. Tonight we had calamari as an entree & seafood paroadella pasta. Yummy ! Gluten free & so good. & you don't notice it's gluten free that how good it is. Having allergies is not ideal when going out for dinner or lunch. This is pretty much the best as far as gluten free goes. They don't have a gluten free kitchen however they know how to take care of you.

Comme une fête familiale, assiette bien rempli & personnel avec un service Clientèle hors pair. Possibilité d'avoir un chanteur pendant le souper qui met un bel ambiance.
My family & I loooved this place. The server was nice & kind, we spoke a bit of Spanish & Italian during the meal which was fun (to me at least). Bread was warm & delicious, salad was good too, & the main dishes were amazing. We got the lasagna, the spaghetti frutti di mare, & ossobuco pasta. Everything was 1000/10, but our favorite was definitely the spaghetti frutti di mare. Again, the gentleman who took care of us was sooo nice, grazie mille!! Our favorite restaurant in Montreal so fa
We celebrated our 25th anniversary at Restaurant Gallo Nero, & it was fantastic!! The ambiance was perfect for our special night, & the staff went above & beyond with their warm, attentive service. The food was superb, with standout dishes that showcased authentic Italian flavors. Highly recommend for a special occasion!

Food was absolutely wonderful & authentic Italian. Our waiter was funny & engaging. The owner came to our table & interacted with us. All around great evening.
Best Italian restaurant in Montreal. Only restaurant my Nonno & Nonna go to so you know it's good. Been going for special occasions longer than I can remember. Recommend to anyone willing to make the trip to the east end. Easy to get to with public transit (Cadillac metro & 32 or 132 bus to corner of Jarry & Lacordaire). Staff is very friendly & welcoming. 5 stars across the board.

Always so happy to come to Gallo Nero! We have many family events here & we are always so pleased with the service, & the food is divine. Everyone makes you feel at home. Thank you!
Had my daughters Confirmation party last night, everything was perfect! The food was excellent, the atmosphere was amazing & the service also top notch. Would definately recommend 👌
Thoroughly enjoyed my first experience here. I will certainly return. Very big compliments to a very friendly, professional & efficient staff. My only disappointment, the veal special was on the salty side. However, the salad & dessert were divine. Alla prossima Volta!:)
