Le designer Jacques Gaspo du groupe Foodtastic (derrière La Belle & La Boeuf, Souvlaki Bar, Carlos & Pepe’s, Le Blossom, les nouveaux Nickels et Bacaro Pizzeria) a développé Gatto Matto pendant deux ans. Un concept révolutionnaire et avant-gardiste Art Déco à thématique flower bar qui est une fusion entre Chicago et l’Italie. Utilisant des matériaux premiums dessinés et fabriqués à Montréal, l’alliage des éléments se marient à merveille. Des couleurs vives et éclatantes donnent un facteur WOW qui vous ferait sentir comme dans un hôtel moderne de Milan avec une touche girly. La création de la cuisine à aire ouverte encore jamais vu à Montréal (en collaboration avec Hagop Hagopian, directeur des opérations Foodtastic et expert en design cuisine) permet de voir à l’œuvre les meilleurs chefs de la région. Pas besoin de voyager, on vous amène l’Europe à votre table.
Les avis sur Gatto Matto convergent vers une expérience gourmande et animée, avec des plats italiens savoureux et un service globalement professionnel et attentif, souvent efficace et convivial. La carte met en avant des pizzas et des pâtes très appréciées, accompagnées parfois de fruits de mer ou de burrata, et des plats de viande ou de poisson qui suscitent généralement des retours positifs. L ambiance est décrite comme chic et dynamique, idéale pour des soirées entre amis ou des occasions spéciales, mais elle peut devenir très bruyante lorsque le restaurant est plein ou que la musique est forte. Le rapport qualité-prix est perçu comme variable: certaines portions et présentations sont généreuses et les saveurs bien équilibrées, tandis que d'autres avis signalent des portions plus modestes et des frais supplémentaires pour des accompagnements, ou des tarifs qui restent élevés. Dans l ensemble, Gatto Matto est vu comme une adresse fiable et agréable pour passer une soirée réussie, avec un service qui guide les choix et rend l expérience mémorable quand l équipe et l ambiance s accordent avec les plats.
Le meilleur restaurant autour de la place bell autant pour la fraîcheur & la qualité de la nourriture, pour le très beau décor & la belle ambiance ainsi que pour le service qui y est toujours attentionné, sympathique & efficace. Un merci spécial à notre serveur Charles qui a été super.

I visited Gatto Matto after a round of virtual golf with a few friends, & overall, it was a very positive experience.
From the moment we arrived, the service stood out. The staff was attentive across the board-from the hostess who seated us, to our waiter, to the team members who regularly checked in, refilled water, & kept our wine topped up. One staff member in particular (I unfortunately didn't catch her name) was especially attentive & made sure everything was running smoothly at our table.
They were also patient & accommodating while we waited for friends who were delayed due to traffic & parking issues following the letout of the Laval Rockets hockey game at Place Bell.
The only downside on the service side was the two-hour table limit, which, while understandable on a busy Saturday night, did add a bit of pressure to the evening.
As for the food, we started with the salmon tartare & grilled octopus-both were well-prepared & flavorful. For mains, my wife had a Pizza Burrata & I had a pasta with guanciale meat, which one of my friends also ordered. The dishes were good, though I found the pasta portion a bit small, especially considering the price. That said, pricing is generally in line with what you'd expect for pasta in Montreal.
The wine selection was decent but nothing remarkable. Like most restaurants, prices start around $50 per bottle, & while acceptable, the quality didn't quite match the cost-I've had better at that price point.
We also looked into the meat platter, which ranges from roughly $150 to $180 for two to three people. While it includes premium items like lobster tails & shrimp, it still feels expensive compared to similar platters at smokehouse-style restaurants.
Overall, the food was good, the service was excellent, & the experience was enjoyable. It's on the pricier side, but still a place I would return to.
Bouffe très bonne mais ambiance trop bruyante. Nous ne pouvions pas discuter tellement la musique était forte (entre 90-110 DB). On nous avait donné deux tables dont une qui branlait énormément. Ce serait une bonne idée qu'elle soit réparée. Conclusion : on n'y retournera pas ... too bad

Music is very loud, the pizzas are very oily & they gave me back my birthday cake cut in pieces all smashed up & in small separate boxes, they also did not give back the box of candles I gave them with the cake.
This place might deserve the best review I've ever written. They have the holy trinity; food, service, & atmosphere. Food is delicious, service goes above & beyond, & atmosphere is a cool, eclectic & upbeat. & Kyle, let's not forget about Kyle. He is the absolute man, great service.
Is the place perfect? No such thing. The tuna takiti is underwhelming, but everything else is an 11/10. Highly recommend.
Last night, we went to the restaurant with a reservation of 7 people. We arrive & the hostess is trying to fit 3 men & 4 women in a 6 person booth, that's right infront of the dj booth, next to the area where servers are constantly passing for utensils & croutons. We asked to sit at the table across, & the hostess goes'no it's only for 8 people' she then says she can put a chair at the end of the booth or sit us on bar stools when we had a disabled person coming with us. The hostess tried multiple times to say'the booth is for 7 people' meanwhile other staff members that served us water were coming to us asking'are you 6 tonight?' Which clearly means the restaurant was trying to squeeze another person in the booth. I proceeded to point out to her that 3 other guests were sitting in the same style of booth that she wanted to seat us at were shoulder to shoulder & looks uncomfortable. The hostess proceeds to call me rude after she tried to gaslight me into accepting a high traffic table area while squeezing in an extra person at the booth. Thank god we didn't eat there as I enjoyed a nice dinner else where, where I actually at elbow room to enjoy my meal.
This restaurants strong point isn't food, it's clearly aesthetic & vibes, so by trying to shove 7 people in a very small booth it automatically ruined the experience.
