An inviting Italian spot in Old Montreal where the vibe is warm and refined and the menu centers on fresh pasta and seafood, with the cheese wheel pasta prepared at the table standing out; service is consistently attentive and friendly, guiding guests through dishes and accommodating dietary needs and celebrations; the atmosphere on both the main floor and the terrace is lively yet comfortable, making it ideal for dates, groups, or special occasions, and the wine list and desserts beautifully complement the meals.
I was super pleased with this place. My party & I were pleasantly surprised by the complimentary desserts - an awesome cannoli & the lightest creamiest cake I've ever had. My main (calamari & arugula salad) were filling & delicious.
10/10 would recommend for brunch if you are in MTL!
Nous sommes allées manger pour la première fois samedi dernier, en groupe de trois. L'accueil a toutefois donné le ton assez rapidement : à peine une dizaine de secondes après notre arrivée, l'hôtesse nous a informées que nous disposions de 2 heures pour manger.
Dans un contexte où l'on souhaite profiter d'un cocktail, d'une entrée, d'un plat principal accompagné de vin, puis d'un dessert avec café, ce délai nous a semblé un peu serré.
Tout au long du repas, nous nous sommes senties sous pression - parfois à la limite de l'insistance. À peine avions-nous le menu depuis deux minutes que l'on venait déjà prendre notre commande. Notre plat principal venait tout juste d'être débarrassé, alors qu'il nous restait encore du vin, & on nous a demandé à 2 ou 3 reprises si nous étions prêtes pour le dessert.
Bien que nous comprenions la contrainte du 2 heures, nous croyons qu'un délai de 2 h 30 serait plus approprié pour ce type d'expérience, surtout pour une facture de 115 à 125 $ par personne.
Cela dit, côté cuisine, rien à redire : tout était excellent & d'une qualité constante du début à la fin.
En entrée, nous avons partagé le carpaccio (excellent), la salade César (mention spéciale pour les chips de charcuterie, vraiment délicieuses) & les calmars frits (panure parfaite).
Pour les plats principaux, nous avons goûté aux orecchiettes (un vrai coup de coeur), aux gnocchis (avec la burrata en extra - un must !) ainsi qu'aux linguinis (WOW, la sauce est tout simplement exceptionnelle).
En dessert, les cannolis étaient délicieux, avec une mention spéciale pour celui au citron, vraiment remarquable.
Merci pour cette belle expérience culinaire - qui pourrait être encore plus agréable avec un rythme un peu moins pressant.

I had high expectations for Jacopo, but unfortunately the experience fell short in a major way. The food itself was decent-around a 7/10. It wasn't bad by any means, but it also didn't stand out enough to make up for everything else.
The real issue was the service, which was extremely disappointing. From the moment we were seated, we were barely acknowledged. No one checked in on us throughout the meal-not once. We weren't asked how the food was, if we needed anything, or even offered basics like grated cheese for our dishes.
When we finished, no one came by to ask if we wanted dessert or another round of drinks.
What made it more frustrating was that we could clearly see other tables being attended to regularly.
Servers were checking in, chatting, & providing attentive service to other guests, while we were essentially ignored. It felt dismissive & honestly uncomfortable.
Good service is just as important as good food, & this experience lacked it entirely. I wouldn't return or recommend Jacopo based on how we were treated.
Mama Mia! I thought I knew what amazing restaurants were until I came to Jacopo today & it's officially one of my favorites now. First of all, let me just give huge credits to the waiters Pearce & the young blond lady ( I didnt catch her name unfortunately) but they were quite as amazing.They made us at ease, they were funny & were so patient & Pearce even took the time to listen to my dietary restrictions & made suggestions while the other waitress would always come & check up on us with a huge smile everytime. & the food omg , the soup was AMAZING & I am not exagerating, I had the soup of the day & it was asparagus & it was so so so tasty. For the main course I had the Lucio Perca & it was to die for , it was flavorful & the mashed potatoes were so creamy. For dessert we had the cannolis & the pistachio one was my favorite, it was not too sweet, just perfect & the presentation for all the plates was very cute especially for the Lucio Perca meal. Also, the restaurant is very beautiful & especially the part upstairs. Thank you for the wonderful experience, we had a great time! I will definitely come back again.
Just a perfect meal all around. Started with the focaccia, had the short rib & one of the tomato pastas & a tiramisu & espresso for dessert no notes. The short rib was the highlight truly one of the most flavourful dishes eve
Went for MTL a table & everything was delicious, started with a salad & the fish for a main, finally tiramisu for dessert.
They have a very nice wine selection & the atmosphere is very nice! The second floor has a great ambiance & decor. Will definitely be coming back.

This was a real mixed bag. Ambiance was excellent as was most of the food & service. I ordered a Hendricks martini & they put olive juice in it. When I tried to return it, the waiter pushed back. I finally said I can't drink this, at which point the bartender comes over & says'my bad', & gave me a fresh drink. They also were pushing drinks very hard at the table. Most of our party didn't drink. We were then notified that we only had the table 1.5 hrs. Wait. What? It seemed like since there was no drinking, we weren't welcome. The table next to us were there before we arrived & drinking. They hadn't even gotten their food by the time we left. By 1.5 hrs, they asked if they could bring us the check. No coffee. No dessert. You get the drift ?
There were tables open all around us as well as the'entire second floor'. I go out all the time & never experienced anything like this. (& it was a Wednesday night).
Nous étions sur la terrasse un samedi soir 17h. Le restaurant est très bien situé dans le vieux-port de Montréal. Très belle ambiance. La nourriture était excellente, mais on dirait qu'ils sont pressé de nous servir pour qu'on parte le plus vite possible… 😅 Nous venions tout juste de finir de manger l'entrée (17h19), que le repas est arrivé… Je n'avais même pas fini mon assiette qu'il arrivait pour débarrasser… (17h30) J'aime quand le service est rapide, mais ça c'était beaucoup trop rapide… J'avais même pas fini mon premier vers qu'il voulait nous apportez la carte des desserts… (17h40)
Je vous dirais que c'est une bonne place, mais p-e leur dire de prendre leur temps haha
Dined here for the first time. The restaurant offered excellent service, delicious food & all was reasonably priced. The staff were all so friendly. Our server, Nick, was very knowledgeable, attentive & very kind. He made some excellent recommendations that did not disappoint. From appetizers to dessert, wow!! I rarely leave reviews but this place left such an impression. I will definitely be going back. So many other dishes I need to try!
My husband & I were on a little weekend getaway & this was our first time going to Jacopo, the food was amazing & we had the nicest & most wonderful server. Her name was Aurelia, my husband was uncertain about what to have for dinner & he summed up what he liked, her recommendation was perfect & of course her recommendation for dessert was a perfect end to our evening.
Highly recommended!!

We were a group of 8 on a Sat night in March during the Happening Gourmand event (which is why we chose it). Apparently, the restaurant allocates only 2 hours for the reservation. The waiter didn't come take our order quickly, we had no drinks or wine, just the appetizer that was on the HG menu. The gnocchi I ordered was chewy & not pleasant at all (I ought to have sent it back & asked for a different dish). The orecchiette ordered by two of our groupwas so spicy with hot peppers they couldn't finish - & one of them is Italian, from Italy. I don't recall any of the grouo praising the quality of their food. After we had finished & the plates cleared, the waiter appeared to declare that we had 10 mins to vacate the table for the next reservation. Those of us (4) whose special menu included dessert had not received any, nor had we been asked if we wanted coffee or dessert, & we hadn't received our bills. When I asked the waiter what about the dessert included in my meal, he said I would have to take it to go! (Pannacotta, really? How?) Then he seemed to realize his mistake & showed up with the desserts. It was clear that we were to eat fast & get out (still no bill). I complained about the bum's rush we were getting, & was told that we'd been advised of the time restriction upon arrival. That may be, but it's up to the server to take the orders in a timely fashion, not 30 mins late, & then start pushing the customers out the door. We hadn't caused any delay or were holding up the table after service. With the barely acceptable food & that kind of service, I couldn't recommend this restaurant to anyone.
Les plats étaient bons il n'y a aucun soucis sur ça mais cet établissement est malheureusement un attrape touriste. Les tarifs sont beaucoup trop élevés comparé à la qualité & à la complexité des plats (des pâtes au fromage). Nous avons payé 120$ pour 2 sachant que nous n'avons pris ni entrée ni dessert (un seul verre d'alcool par personne)
Dommage car l'établissement est beau & agréable mais cela est dommage de prendre les touristes/les habitants pour des pigeons.
Food is amazing. Service is as slow as it gets, to the point that we gave up on dessert because our server just vanished after bringing us the menu. We still had to wait a really long time for the bill & then the card machine. Don't really feel like coming back.
Le personnel est parfait, l'ambiance aussi mais le repas très ordinaire. Je n'ai jamais mangé de pâtes aussi peu goûteuses. L'entrée d'arancini était bonne & le dessert correct. Beaucoup trop cher pour la qualité

I'll give 5 stars in food if it isn't that the desserts are so not special! We were well served & the Italian cuisine is really good. Expensive yes, but it's worth it. Just please don't take the desserts! They are really grocery store quality. Nobody ever came to refill our wine. Other than that, service is good. We didn't like that the music was so loud, everyone was speaking super loud cause of this, I mean is not a club. In the reservation, we mentioned we came for our 3rd anniversary, but nobody ever said a word about this.
C'est extrêmement cher pour ce que c'est. La menthe dans mon mocktail était brune & sèche, ce n'est pas appétissant. La portion des pâtes carbonara était vraiment plus petite que toutes les autres portions de pâtes de la table. Le dessert était très ordinaire, de type cafétéria. De plus, le service était lent & une serveuse nous parlait en anglais malgré que nous étions tous francophone. Pour terminer, il y a eu un gros dégat dans les toilettes des dames & visiblement, personne a eu l'idée de nettoyer le tout avant notre arrivée. Ça ne vaut pas le coup, il y a mieux à proximité !
A bit noisy inside. The sound level eased as the evening progressed. The service was very good. The food was an out of the park home run. Every dish was AAA & the dessert we chose was excellent as well. Highly recommended.
We spent the last night of our trip at Jacopo, unfortunately our table was 30 mins late which meant we had to miss our later cocktail reservation. The manager was very lovely & apologetic & offered us Prosecco while we waited. Food did take a very long time but they did warn us at the beginning. Even though there were many hiccups overall the service was wonderful & they tried to make it right & that's truly all you can ask for during such a crazy busy weekend. They comp'd a few drinks & our dessert & I forget our servers name but he was wonderful & attentive. Food was very good, table was comfy, atmosphere was nice & we will give it another try for sure, we appreciate the effort!
Service efficace, quoique pas très chaleureux. Il faut éviter les raviolis à la courge qui sont plus que fades, en plus d'être nappés d'une sauce farineuse & pas du tout réussie, voire dur à manger. L'entrée n'était pas fameuse non plus & les desserts ne sont clairement pas maison, ni authentiques. Tout ça, à un prix plus qu'exagéré.
