Depuis 1984, nos clients viennent chez Il Focolaio afin de rechercher le goût italien authentique fait à la maison. Il Focolaio signifie le foyer en Italien. Ce nom décrit parfaitement le four alimenté au bois d’érable où nous faisons cuire toutes nos pizzas, garnies de leurs succulents ingrédients. Notre foyer, comme en Italie, ne sert pas seulement à faire cuire la nourriture : c’est aussi un endroit où nos clients peuvent se rassembler, dans un confort chaleureux. La recette de notre succès est simple : nous servons des pizzas garnies d’ingrédients dignes des meilleurs pizzaiolos, tels que de l’huile d’olive extra vierge, des tomates de la meilleure qualité et des ingrédients frais. Ces pizzas sont préparées avec passion et un amour de la bonne cuisine, afin de vous offrir un plat inoubliable. Nous vous invitons à venir déguster le goût de l’Italie avec un bon verre de vin choisi dans notre liste de vins personnalisée. Vous pourrez l’apprécier cet été, sur notre terrasse au cœur du centre-ville.
Il Focolaio offre une expérience italienne authentique avec une pizza au feu de bois et une carte riche de garnitures et de combinaisons créatives, une pâte croquante et des ingrédients frais qui séduisent dans le paysage des pizzerias montréalaises. La salle est chaleureuse et animée, le service est globalement attentif et efficace même en période d'affluence, et des options sont proposées pour végétariens, sans gluten et lactose libre; les cannolis et tiramisu accompagnent bien les pizzas. Bien que les files d'attente et des tables serrées soient fréquentes lors des heures d'affluence, les convives apprécient les portions généreuses, les prix raisonnables et la saveur authentique qui donne envie de revenir.
One of the best pizzas in town.
Suggestion : such a good pizza with BG beer. Seriously? Terrible beer for those who don't like it in bottle.
I didn't give you 5* beacuse the pancetta was way too spicy. I know Montreal has become a spicy food spot the last couple of years, but still. You should warn your clients. It felt like mexican/bolivian/indian level of spice. The other pizzas were great.
This is one of my favourite pizza places in Montreal! There are so many varieties that you can have, & I haven't even tried the calzonis or the salads. Last time I went, we were able to get a reservation for 11am & were immediately seated when we got in. This time, I got a Campagnola, without olives, & it was absolutely delicious. I devoured the whole pizza. I noticed it was slightly smaller than it was when I visited in past years, but it was no less delicious! I highly recommend this place for lunch or dinne
They have a wide selection of delicious pizzas (probably the biggest I have seen) & despite the crowd on weekend evenings, they do a good job of quickly bringing the pizzas.
This is one of the best Italian pizzas, I have ever had outside of Italy.
You have a huge selection of pizzas, more than 70 types of pizza.
I recommend it for sure.
I came here on a date, they have an extensive pizza menu. The wine was good. However I think it's expensive for what it is. I paid almost $50 for a pizza & 1 glass of wine.
On our first trip to Montreal we were looking for a place to eat that close to our hotel. We found Il Focolaio & were able to get seated inside immediately. The atmosphere was very energetic & somewhat loud, but fun.
Neither my wife or I speak French & as soon as we spoke the servers immediately responded in English & once seated provided us with English menus.
We ordered pizzas & wine both of which were fantastic. The servers never stopped moving the entire time we were there & they were all super friendly.
If you are looking for a great pizza in a fun & friendly atmosphere this is the place.
Their pizza menu is wildly extensive. They have this note on their menu saying they make their own tomato sauce, cheese & pizza dough , which sounds fantastic. Really tasty pizza to be honest.
