J'ai commandé des linguini au pesto de pistaches & crevettes nordiques en personne à emporter à l'heure du dîner. C'était délicieux! Le chef - un vrai italien - est très compétent!

Par contre, l'attente était longue car le chef semblait être le seul employé qui savait comment faire rouler la chaîne de travail. La caissière & l'autre employé semblait être nouveau. Bon courage à eux ça n'a pas l'air facile!

****************************************
The pesto shrimp linguini was delicious! The italian chef knows his craft. The 2 other employees looked new & so the waiting time was long unfortunately. Good luck to them!

Excellent food overall for quick & efficient fix of my fresh pasta craving. Everything is on point (if we still say that in 2024). Dishes are cooked right in front of you while. Gnocchis are soft & buttery, guanciale in the carbonara is fried just enough to be crispy yet not burned. Only downside is this location is mostly for takeout, but they do have a table for 8-10 people to sit communally.

First off the chef is great, he will accommodate you fully if you have any tweaks you would like to do to any of the listed menu items. The pasta is great & the meatballs are awesome. Nice little shop in old Montreal !

Excellentes pâtes. Je le recommande mais allez-y en dehors des heures de déjeuner habituelles car l'attente est longue. Fraîcheur garantie. Le cuisiner est italien, il aime son travail.

My colleague recommended this spot for a business lunch. I ordered the Campanelle & truly enjoyed it. It was simple, light & I could not get enough of the sauce!
