Petit restaurant mais très beau. Un menu simple & petit. En revanche, j'ai été déçue des portions & des prix. Je comprends totalement que la qualité amène un certain prix, mais un petit bol de pate au pistache pour 27$ je trouve cela excessif!
Excellents le service & la nourriture. Ambiance chaleureuse, toute italienne. 😊 Belle musique, propriétaires joyueux, qui chantent! La lasagna m'a rappelé les dimanches de mon enfance.
Ça faisait un moment que je souhaitais essayer cet endroit. Une petite serveuse hispanophone est vraiment gentille, pour le reste le service pourrait être amélioré. Le vin (Soave) était sublime, par contre le tant célébré Polp Fiction m'a un peu déçu: je m'attendais pas à un pulpe froid préparé à l'avance, surtout qu'à Montréal on peut trouver aisément du poisson de qualité. Ensuite je me suis faite tenté par le bombolone à la crème... Rien à voir avec ceux qu'on trouve dans la Petite Italie .. Je le trouve dans le complexe un endroit fancy conçu pour ceux qui ont pas mal d'argent à dépenser. L'idée managériale est bonne, mais - au delà du vin - il faudrait peut-être travailler sur une meilleure qualité.
Wonderful place. The food is AMAZING, super balanced & well seasoned (the foccacias are to die for), the place is small yet cozy, server very patient & knew the menu well & we had a chance to speak with the chef who is definitely a real Italian food connoisseur & is very passionate about what he does. Yes it is not cheap but well worth the freshness of the food & the amount in the plate. Great experience would 100% recommend. Only wish I'd taken more pictures to do it justice.
Omgggg the food is AMAZING!!! The foccacias with the spicy cold cuts, the one with the mortadelle & pistachio were sooooo good!!! My fav Ive tasted, if you like octopus you HAVE to try their octopus sandwich, very generous in flavors, the bread was very fresh. Amazing food! The only inconvenience the place is so small that we could not sit there. It was full house. But just for the awesome food, it's worth going.
che dire!!!! un posto magnifico. ottimo cibo preparato con prodotti di qualità eccezionale. Locale accogliente e poi ci sono loro, David e Pierpaolo, ragazzi veramente in gamba. Il loro spirito di accoglienza ti travolge così tanto che subito ti fanno sentire a proprio agio, come se li conoscessi da una vita. Una tappa da fare ... tanti auguri

Wow! Went there with colleagues (group of 8). Very helpful that one of them is Italian & asked for sampling all the favorites. It was DELICIOUS! Not only was the service courteous but fast. Our server didn't need notes or seating map!!! He remembered ALL our drinks' orders 😲 Ambiance is very neighbourhood eatery. Cosy. Mostly young lively but not LOUD 🙏🏾 We want to return. Beautiful discovery. Don't be scared about the fact that it's in a "basement". Nice trick to keep the "habitués" only 😉 Will be returning for sure!
Incredible!!! The entire experience, from start to end. The service was attentive & fantastic, the space was cozy, comfortable, & had a great ambiance (the playlist on Saturday was A+, such fun!), & the food... Oh LORD the food...!!! My first bite had me needing a minute to compose myself - WOW!!!

Nous avons adoré le salé, qui était une pure merveille. Par contre, nous avons été déçu des desserts: le beignet au nutella était sec & avec peu de nutella. Le tiramisu à la pistache était sincèrement très petit pour le prix (9$).
Une pépite ! C'était tellement délicieux Jolie place avec une belle ambiance familiale qui fait plaisir Les croquetas super bonnes & les focaccias moitié moitié une révélation ! Super savoureux & bien frais, un régal ! Merci beaucoup

They were able to seat our large group on a busy Sunday afternoon which was really nice. We got the fig focaccia, pistachio & ham focaccia, two pastas, & their Polp fiction. All the food was fresh & so tasty. I especially loved the polp fiction. Definitely check this place out!
