Review Summary

Gema Pizzeria is frequently described as a top-tier destination in Montreal, with many patrons praising the creative, authentic pizzas, high-quality ingredients, and standout desserts like the ice cream. While many guests enjoy the cozy atmosphere and friendly, professional service, experiences regarding noise levels, wait times, and meal consistency vary significantly. Some diners report exceptional, perfectly cooked crusts and flavorful salads, while others have expressed disappointment with occasional issues such as overcooked or raw dough, rubbery textures, or inattentive service. Pricing and the default tip percentages on payment terminals are also noted as points of contention for some customers, though many continue to recommend the restaurant as a staple for a delicious, neighborhood-feel dining experience in Little Italy.

I always go for the Apennine pizza. Delicious, but the last time I was disappointed because almost no toppings, barely found the usual flavor.

Second time I've been to this place, the pizzas certainly didn't disappoint. Got a Diavolo & it was very good. The downsides for me were 2 things:
1) the pizza took forever to come. We were 4 to order & although I didn't time it, I believe it came after more than 25 minutes.
2) the tip option on the machine starts at 18%. With everything going up in price, why raise a tip option minimum, it's supposed to be given for good service & is an extra that should be given willingly.

The pizzas were good though!

We've come here many times enjoying authentic Italian dishes . This time was disappointing . What I ordered was good, however my husband's Caesar salad was made with folia lettuce & a watery dressing. Second mistake was serving the calamari with a raw tomato In a cup. My daughter's pizza was burnt, & the octopus in the octopus salad was rubbery. It can happen to have an off night in the kitchen however, there are certain rules that should not be broken. For this reason, we will not be returning, unfortunately.

Pizzas were good, nicely cooked.
The Caesar salad was a bit underwhelming, too lemony & the dressing was watery, it could've been a bit creamier.
Overall pretty good

Very disappointed my pizza was tough the dough is nothing like what it use to be. Before like a freshly baked naan, soft, pulls apart easily ours was tough the whole table was shaking while we tried to cut it . Hope it's a one time thing.i will go back but if it happens again means truly the dough is not the same at all. Toppings excellent , good service +atmosphere. Waiter gifted me my dessert because I did tell him & he said could see on my plate all the burnt parts of my pizza.
