Gatto Matto Laval Restaurant: Menu, Reviews & Reserve (2026)
ItalianPastaPizzaTartareTapasSaladsBrunchGreat selection of winesResto-Bar
The designer Jacques Gaspo from Foodtastic (behind La Belle & La Boeuf, Souvlaki Bar, Carlos & Pepe’s, Le Blossom, the new Nickels and Bacaro Pizzeria) developed Gatto Matto over a two year period. A revolutionary and Avant-Garde Art Deco concept with a flower bar theme that is a fusion between Chicago and Italy. Using premium materials designed and manufactured in Montreal, the elements marry themselves wonderfully. Bright and vibrant colors give a WOW factor that will make you feel like in a modern Milan hotel with a girly touch. The creation of the open kitchen concept never seen before in the Montreal area (in collaboration with Hagop Hagopian, director of operations at Foodtastic and expert in kitchen design) allows you to see the best chefs in the region at work. No need to travel, we bring Europe to your table.

Review Summary

Reviews consistently describe Gatto Matto as a vibrant Italian spot with standout food and attentive service, delivering pasta, pizza and seafood that many find delicious and well presented. The atmosphere is praised as lively and stylish, though several accounts note the music can be very loud and the space noisy at peak times. Value is a recurring point of discussion, with some dishes and drinks seen as worth the cost while others feel overpriced for the portions. The service receives frequent praise for friendliness, knowledge of the menu and proactive attentiveness, though a few visits report slower pacing or inconsistencies. This place comes up as a good option for celebrations, dates and pre event dinners, with many reviewers saying they will return and recommending reservations on busy nights. Overall, it comes across as a popular destination that excels in flavor and ambiance, with caveats about sound level and price.

I've NEVER been this satisfied with a restaurant in my life.
Our waitress was above & beyond honestly such a sweetheart .
We started with fried calamari as an appetizer 10/10 it was so good. We were scared at first because of the light color.
We were pleasantly surprised.
We followed with our waitress suggestion which was a shared platter 10000/10.
A must try.
The meat was seasoned to perfection the sides were so good.
I'm definitely going back.
We took litchi martinis even they were amazing.

I had a very frustrating experience trying to book my bridal shower here.

I initially met with a manager to discuss hosting the event. She gave me the menu, & I told her I would be bringing my own cake, so dessert would be removed. She then made up an estimated price on the spot & said she would confirm with the owner.

Weeks went by with no response, despite multiple attempts to follow up. When I finally called again, a different manager gave me a completely different price & said she would also need the owner's approval. Once again, no one ever got back to me.

To make things worse, I was told two different prices for cake cutting - one staff member said $8, another said $4. This shows a lack of consistency & professionalism.

Overall, this place feels very disorganized, with poor communication & prices that seem to change depending on who you speak to. It made me very uncomfortable trusting them with an important event like a bridal shower.

On top of that, portions are extremely small for the price, wine is expensive despite being a lower-end brand, & the staff does not seem experienced in managing private events.

I would not recommend this place for hosting events, & I'm glad I decided not to move forward.

A spoonful of pasta for 30$ plus never again

This review is about how to screw up a nice experience for $1.50.

The service we received was very good.
The food we received was ok. I ordered a pasta with tomato sauce & I asked for bread. I shouldn't have to ask in an Italian restaurant, but I had to.

The bread I received was terrible. Let's not forget this is supposed to be a decent italian restaurant. The 2 slices of bread were like melba toast. Hard with no substance. The kicker is that we spent almost $250 for a meal for & they had the hutspa to charge us $1.50 for those 2 lousy pieces of bread. We have averaged 2 visits a month over the past year or so but they won't be seeing my money any time soon. This was the true meaning of PENNY WISE & POUND FOOLISH not too say very insulting......

La cuisine était très bonne & le service irréprochable & respectueux. Nous étions avec mes beaux-parents, disons que l'ambiance n'était pas celle recherchée, avec la musique forte. Mais pour un souper entre amis, ça doit être génial! Assurément, j'y retournerai avant un spectacle!

Service lamentable, manque de professionnalisme & de politesse de la part de la serveuse.mlle Marielle. Zéro sourire. Pas vraiment son métier. Retire les ustensiles, napkins & mon drink avant d'avoir terminé.En faisant la réservation nous avons mentionné que c'était a l'occasion de notre anniversaire de mariage …Zéro attention de la maison, pas de scotch au bar!! Nourriture correct, prix correct, ambiance correct . Pas recommandable.
