Il Bazzali is described as a warm, cozy Italian spot with generous portions and a strong focus on pasta and pizza, where fresh handmade pasta and flavorful toppings shine and the atmosphere is often enhanced by the chef singing opera. Guests repeatedly note attentive, friendly service and a well curated wine list, with a charming dining room and a heated terrace in good weather. Many reviews praise dishes such as ravioli, arancini, beef and seafood entrees, and the overall quality of the food, with the opera performance adding a memorable touch to the evening. The chef who sings and the staff are highlighted as memorable aspects, making celebrations feel special. Some critiques mention that pizza can vary in quality and pricing can be high for certain items, and a few also point to beverage choices like canned beer not being as fresh. Overall, Il Bazzali delivers authentic Italian cooking, a welcoming neighborhood vibe, and an experience many would return for.
Super restaurant : la nourriture est très bonne. Nous avons mangé des linguini carbonara, des raviolis & le tiramisu service tres agréable, bon personnel & le vrai critère différenciant : le chef en personne qui se met à chanter, & qui passe ensuite de table en table discuter avec chacun de ses clients. Très bon restaurant 🇮🇹🍝🍕
Plats tous délicieux. La table d'hôte 4 services est excellente & les prix sont raisonnables. Très beau choix d'entrées, de pâtes & de pizzas. Desserts légers, parfaits. Le chef & ténor chante de l'opéra, & vient parler avec les clients aux tables. Franchement...que demander de plus? C'est un coup de coeur, on reviendra!

An amazing place for a date! The food was great (we had pasta with salmon & carbonara), the service was amazing, & the chef went out to sing opera for us, & then stopped by our table to inquire about our experience. We felt valued & appreciated & will definitely come back ❤️
Endroit très sympa, cuisine très bonne & un chef qui vient de temps en temps en salle pour chanter. Il est d'ailleurs venu à notre table pour chanter un petit air à mon mari pour son anniversaire !
We had an amazing time at this restaurant! The chef/owner came to see us numerous times, he sang for everyone at the restaurant (live opera performance). The food was 5 star authentic Italian cuisine. The chef even came out to sing happy birthday to the birthday day personally. Ambience, vibes & hospitality were 100/10! 100% would recommend this gem! Thank you for the amazing experience, it is rare to find nowadays in Montreal.
Intimate & cozy atmosphere. The crestaurant is decorated simply. It has a nice low-key vibe ... people were really enjoying themselves. The food was excellent. The gnocchi & cod were fantastic. The carbonara was delicious, & the braised beef was incredible. The owner chef sang for us. It was a terrific night. Highly recommend.

The pizza was good, but not the typical Italian one as I know from Europe. The gnocchis were delicious & the Ambiente was very good. The chef is a tenor & showed us his skills, we really enjoyed it. We would go there again if we will be in Montreal again.
Très belle expérience! Le personnel est fantastique! Vraiment excellent service! La nourriture était très bonne! & que dire du chef avec sa voix de ténor qui est venu chanter bonne fête à la mère de ma copine. Une belle attention qu'elle a apprécié! Nous avons adoré!

Superbe restaurant dans lequel on se sent comme à la maison ! La nourriture & le service sont excellents. Le chef est très sympathique & prend le temps de remercier chacune des tables. Très conviviale & un grand plus pour le chant du chef, quelle voix impressionnante ! Merci pour cette belle soirée !
Amazing atmosphere! The chef/owner comes out & sings opera & entertains the guests. Checks in on all the customers. The food was good & at a reasonable price. Highly recommend for a fun night out!
The entire evening was filled with incredible food, incredible atmosphere, incredibly kind staff, & incredible chef! It was my birthday & my family asked for a special song, & the talented chef sang for me. It was a night to remember. Please consider this place for a beautiful night.
Délicieux! Le service était excellent, nous n'avons jamais manqué de rien, le personnel était très courtois. Le chef est venu nous voir après notre repas pour savoir comment était notre expérience dans son restaurant. Carte des vins très complète! Je recommande à tous.
Amazing restaurant serving authentic italien cuisine with a great atmosphere ! Let's not forget how awesome the chef is! Highly recommend their carbonara
