About us

Il Pazzesco has been noticed and appreciated by Montreal gourmets since it was founded in 1991 by brothers Michele and Mario Lapadula. Following the expansion and renovation in the winter of 2001, the restaurant is divided into two separate rooms, one of which has a dance floor. You can reserve either one of the rooms for more privacy, and the same attentive service.

In May 2002 the daily newspaper “La Presse” described Il Pazzesco as being a discovery in Anjou (découverte à Anjou.)

Hoping to see you soon!

Review Summary

Il Pazzesco impresses with its gnocchi and the menu blends classic Italian flavors with a dynamic, memorable profile. Service is consistently superb and attentive, making guests feel welcome and at home. The atmosphere is warm and elegant yet welcoming, with a refined vibe that still feels inviting. Dishes such as gnocchi, polpette, veal, seafood pastas and lamb chops are praised for freshness, generous portions and authentic preparation, with pasta often described as al dente and sauces flavorful. Value is highlighted with generous portions and quality that justifies the price, and many reviews note that the experience can feel like a true Italian dining moment, whether dining in or celebrating a special occasion. Minor notes about noise or a few menu items not meeting expectations are far outweighed by the overall experience, leaving a sense of a reliable favorite for fans of Italian cuisine.

Delicious & fresh Authentic Italian food. Loved the antipasto , proshiutto wasn't too salty, loved the little slices of thin crust pizza they gave as an appetizer, the panini were fresh & very good. Loved the medaglione with ricotta cheese, you could actually taste the ricotta, no mish mash of ingredients that some restaurants serve as "ricotta", but looks & tastes like glue. The meat was tender & tasty & well done just the way I asked for.
Great service also!! I would recommend Il Pazzesco to anyone for any occasion! Congratulations to the chef!

Très bon restaurant! J'ai adoré la focacia donné en entrée! C'est très généreux de donner une pizza au lieu du pain comme dans la plupart des restaurants. J'ai commandé la table d'hôte à 23$ & j'ai été très surprise de la qualité des produits offerts. Pour ce prix, j'ai mangé une salade César en entrée & pour le plat de résistance du veau aux champignons pleurotes accompagné de légumes. C'était vraiment délicieux. Pour une bonne bouffe italienne authentique je vous le suggère fortement.
