Jacopo stands out in Old Montreal with a warm, stylish vibe and a menu that delivers Italian classics with bold, fresh flavors. Reviews highlight friendly, attentive service and knowledgeable wine suggestions, and the atmosphere ranges from cozy intimate dining upstairs to lively terrace evenings. The food is repeatedly praised for quality and flavor, from crisp bruschetta, burrata and calamari to seafood pastas, gnocchi and the signature cheese wheel pasta prepared at tableside, along with desserts like tiramisu and cannolis. The wine list and cocktails pair well with many dishes, helping meals feel special for a date, a celebration, or a group dinner. While some guests note that portions can be small or prices a bit high and a few service hiccups or noisy moments, the consensus is that Jacopo offers a memorable experience with generous hospitality and superb Italian cooking that keeps guests coming back.
This place is a bit of a soft spot in my heart as my husband & I enjoyed our first meal here as newly weds. The food is delicious, the atmosphere is very nice, adding a touch of Old Montreal charm, especially if seated on the terrace. It felt like a true vacation in our own city to stay in a nearby hotel & enjoy the local restaurant for a wedding getaway. Came back a few times after.
Merci à M. Émilien pour l'excellent service que tu nous a offert! Mon conjoint & moi avons apprécié notre expérience & vos conseils en matière de vin :)
Pearce was a wonderful & very friendly waiter. He was also very kind to offer us tiramisu & canollis for my birthday!
Excellent food, wine & service, & the place is lovely. We definitely recommend!
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.
We did the boozy brunch & thought it was great value. Seafood linguine is highly recommended - great tasting & not too heavy. Service & vibes were also excellent. We will be asking for Pierce next time we are back. Great conversations, service & recommendations for other local things to do.

One of the most top rated Italian restaurants in the area. Prices on the costlier side.
The cheese wheel was a very good experience. Must try.
Food was nice. Ambience & Service was amazing
This was my third visit to Jacop. The ambience is great-it's a classic spot in the Old Port-but I've found myself underwhelmed each time I go.
This visit, we shared the bruschetta, carpaccio, & fried calamari, & I also tried a bit of their ravioli. The ravioli, which I've had twice now, continues to be really good.
The entrees, however, were just okay. The carpaccio was fine, but not exceptional-I'd say Darling's & Vandale's carpaccio are better. The fried calamari needed more salt, & the portion of tartare sauce they provided was stingy. The bruschetta was the biggest disappointment: no flavor whatsoever. I was expecting the same dish I had last winter, but the menu has changed completely-two sticks of bread topped with flavorless ricotta & whole cherry tomatoes. For a $16 appetizer, it felt extremely lazy.
Overall, everything was just okay & overpriced-classic Old Port restaurant vibes. There are definitely better options in the area.
Pas terrible. Si vous voulez un vrai restaurant italien, ce n'est pas ici. La farce des ravioli était étouffante, mauvais équilibre des saveurs dans le plat & le lieu est très bruyant.
Le service par contre était très bien !
