We just celebrated my parent's 50th wedding anniversary here yesterday & it was everything we hoped! We were a Party of 9 ppl. The food was delicious, service/staff were excellent & the terrace is just beautiful. My 4 year old daughter loved it too, they were very accommodating & made a kid friendly dish! Special shout out to our waitress Jasmine. Thank you for being so attentive. Will definitely return 🫶

This restaurant has a great setting & overall good service. However, the food is quite unimpressive & underwhelming. I had the carpaccio as an appetizer, it was so poorly executed, the beef had large patches of fat & connective tissue, which a carpaccio is not supposed to have, it not tender & it was truly un chewable. The beef colour didn't look fresh either. My friend had the shrimp pasta, the tomato sauce was so watery it looked like he had his pasta in a soup, & some shrimps still had shells left on it. If your want a dinner worth this price range, walk a little further on the street & go to Beatrice.

The place is super pretty & you're surrounded by flowers but it took an hour & a half to get my meal. The food was flavourless. The pasta sauce lacks so much flavor. One of my friends got a drink & it was so weirdly salty. My friend got the chicken, beware, cafeteria food tastes better. Would not come here if you're expecting to eat good italian food. Go somewhere else. Not worth the money at all.

Classic authentic italian food. They keep it simple & its amazing. Service was professional & fast. They are also very flexible with diatery resteictions as we asked to switch a sauce that had alcohol with something else so we rlly appreciated it.We went to test it out before having our engagement dinner during winter & we will surely pick this place. Highly reccomend making a reservation first.

This is a lovely urban courtyard restaurant hidden away in the heart of downtown Montreal. The unique setting & the pleasant service by the amiable young staff compensate for the quality of the food at this establishment. If you enjoy North American-Italian cuisine then you won't be disappointed by the heavy cream sauces, faux parmesan, very salty good or overcooked meats. Montreal has so much to offer when it comes to authentic Italian food but Il Cortile isn't one of the places. This would be a perfect spot for pre-dinner drinks or cocktail on a sunny afternoon.

My favor Italian business lunch spot. Clam linguini is the best in town. The courtyard feels like eating in Italy.
