About us

Located in an enchanting setting on the shores of the Lachine Canal, Il Fornetto is a perfect place to offer oneself a moment of relaxation and change of scenery without having to leave the city. Inside, the rustic-inspired though modern décor is particularly pleasant. Yet it is above all for its superb, double-level terrace looking out directly over the canal that people love this place. Open from early in spring until late in autumn, the terrace welcomes you to come and enjoy beautiful the sunsets.

Il Fornetto’s menu takes on the appearance of an encyclopaedia of Italian cuisine. The selection is impressive and includes all of the staples: pastas available as a full dish or half portion, which is great for an entrée, various antipasti and veal and the most important staple of them all, pizza baked in a real wood-burning oven. Here, it is particularly delicious, crispy and topped with the freshest ingredients. Not surprisingly, this restaurant – open since 1987 – shows no sign of slowing down.

Review Summary

Il Fornetto is widely recognized as a staple destination in Lachine, celebrated for its inviting atmosphere and stunning waterfront views of the canal. Diners frequently praise the authentic Italian menu, with particular highlights being the flavourful wood-fired pizzas, fresh pasta dishes, and expertly prepared veal and seafood specialties. While the dining experience is often enhanced by attentive and professional service, the lively environment can sometimes become quite noisy during peak hours. Despite occasional comments regarding pricing or noise levels, most guests find the combination of generous portions, quality ingredients, and the picturesque location to be a compelling reason to return for family celebrations, romantic outings, and professional lunches alike.

Beautiful place with an amazing view of the lake. The atmosphere was lovely, the terrace was beautiful, & the service was excellent from beginning to end.
I went with a friend who was visiting Montréal for the first time, & it was the perfect place to enjoy a nice evening together. We had a wonderful time & really enjoyed the experience. Definitely a beautiful spot to visit!

We have been going to this restaurant for the past 15 years & some of us in the group go almost every week. Why not make an effort & accomodate your loyal customers. & then to be told you have to leave because the next reservation is waiting?
