Review Summary

La Medusa comes across as an inviting Italian spot with warm, attentive service and a welcoming atmosphere. Reviews praise homemade pasta, delicious pizza, seafood, and a well-curated wine list, with hospitality that makes groups feel at home. The location near downtown and event venues is convenient for concerts or games, and the staff are helpful and accommodating, though a few comments mention value for money and occasional slower service.

Au cours des années cela fait plusieurs fois que j'ai la chance d'accompagner amis, clients à La Médusa & à chaque fois j'apprécie beaucoup l'accueil très chaleureux, la nourriture excellente, authentique & me rappelle toujours mon séjours en Italie, & avec leurs fantastiques pizza il faut gouter à leur sauce piment fort faite maison.

Over the last few years I have been at La Medusa many times, & always it is a pleasure to join friends & customers for a great meal, from the very warm welcome, excellent food,& an authenticity which always reminds me of my trip to Italy, & if you are having any of their fantastic pizza you must try thei homemade hot pepper "sauce"

Très bon service, très bons calamars, le pizza aussi, mais les aubergines pouvaient avoir plus du parmesan & moins de provolone.

On a eu le pire service que j'ai eu & la nourriture sans saveur autant le veau que l'agneau ou les pâtes, la pizza avait l'air bonne. Le serveur qui n'amène pas d'eau, laisse les bouteilles de vins dans le milieu de la table arrangez-vous & aucunement sympathique. Je ne fais jamais de critique sur internet mais j'ai tellement été déçu ...

La nourriture était très bonne. Cependant, malgré le fait que nous avions réservé, on semblait pas s'attendre à ce que nous venions. Le personnel a donc semblé faire des efforts afin de nous trouver une place. Cela fut une table tout au fond du restaurant derrière le comptoire pizza, donc nous pouvions très bien voir le cuisiner faire les pizza, avec toutes les odeurs de cuissons qui venait avec. Par conséquent la prochaine fois je vais procéder à ma réserveration par téléphone & m'assurer qu'ils ont de la place en salle à manger.

We thoroughly enjoyed an exquisite meal!!! Superb service, beautiful, sophisticated yet incredibly warm & welcoming atmosphere. The entire meal (experience) was so pleasurable. The menu has something for everyone!!!! Buffalo Mozzarella & tomatoe salad with a drizzle of balsamic was delish!!! Veggie & sausage (I don't remember the name) app had bold flavours, & a medley of wonderful veggies. I loved my Scallops served in a Pernod Sauce, with a side of mushrooms which was delectable. My hubby was in heaven with his pizza prepared in their pizza oven. Crust was crispy, toppings were plentiful & loaded with flavour, sauce was mouthwatering :). Cannolis were perfectly baked tubes of pastry brimming with lightly sweetened fresh cheese. The perfect ending for a perfect meal that was not rushed!!!!!
Extensive wine list, very relaxed, comfortable, spacious seating, street parking, great location, perfect choice for the perfect meal!!!
Thank you, La Medusa!!!!

La Medusa is everything an Italian restaurant should be. All the classics plus updated versions with a unique special of the night thrown in, plus a great pizza selection. Service & atmosphere made everyone feel relaxed. Definitely worth many return trips.
