via LibroBest service, gracious staff, very accommodating & friendly. Best Montreal Pizza & affordable elaborate wine list for all budgets.
via Librogreat food, big portions at a reasonable price. prompt service, we were in & out within 90 minutes.
via LibroThis restaurant dropped the ball so many times & didn't do a thing to course-correct. They didn't have my reservation, which means they didn't get the note that it was my birthday. They took our order & 35 minutes later we had to ASK for bread, while tables next to us that got there later were being served their mains. 10 minutes went by (50 minutes after we walked in the restaurant) & the entre that the waiter upsold us was a mystery. I had to ask them how much longer we were supposed to wait. Minor detail, but during this time the staff could have cared to refill our glasses of wine, offer apologies. Nothing. Food finally arrived after an hour spent there. Pasta was undercooked. One thing is al dente, & another thing is raw crunchy pasta. Carbonara sauce here was scrambled egg whites on pasta water. Then the bill came. We were charged $8 for tap water. We weren't even OFFERED dessert; I guess they knew how badly we wanted to leave. They sat us next to a TV. They played the same Laura Pausini song over 8 times. This restaurant is a nightmare. My partner & I keep fantasizing about Gordon Ramsey recording a Kitchen Nightmares episode in here. The staff was so nice, we tipped accordingly. But the ower of this restaurant needs to do a hefty chunk of self reflection if he doesn't want his restaurant to fail.
via LibroExcellent repas avec un service impeccable. David a répondu à toutes nos demandes & nous a suggéré un vin exquis. Belle ambiance & tout le personnel est très accueillant! Nous y retournerons certainement! Parfait avant un spectacle, à quelques pas du Centre Bell.

Service précipité & pas du tout courtois. Nous avons demandé de baisser un peu le volume de la musique & mon épouse s'est fait remttre à sa place par le paton sans aucune considération.
Ne sera pas sur notre liste lors d'un porchain évènement au Centre Bell
via LibroService excellent, nourriture typique italienne, savoureuse & carte de vins parfaite
via LibroAbsolutely loved this place! We went for a friends birthday dinner & the staff was extremely welcoming & accommodating given that we only spoke english. The food was amazing & the atmosphere was comfortable & aesthetically pleasing. Would defiantly go back without hesitation if i'm ever in the area again. Love this place!!!
via LibroA fantastic experience. This family owned & operated restaurant hits a home run. From the ambiance to the dessert, everything works. Staff (mostly family) are all friendly & knowledgeable. The wine suggestion was perfect. The food was to die for. From one foodie to another this is definitely worth a visit. Don't pay attention to OLD REVIEWS that had issues, they have all been addressed.
via LibroDélicieux & service exceptionnel, mature & professionnel, enfin !
