Unique, délicieux & de qualité. Je ne vais jamais perdre de poids à cause de ce genre de restaurant. Le propriétaire est super généreux de son temps, les produits sont frais & le goût est excellent. Je ne pourrais jamais me passer de leurs focaccia. Il peut mettre ce qu'il veut dessus, à chaque fois c'est du génie. Je trip solide sur la "classique" mortadelle buratta pistache. L'autre excellente est celle avec la pêche mais celle qui me met k.o. c'est avec le citron. J'ai jamais pu me rendre au dessert mais on s'entend que tu peux pas aller "wrong" avec des bombolonis. Les drinks sont également très bien préparés. Un peu plus dispendieux que certain endroits dans la même gamme de produits mais ca vaut la peine à chaque fois.Bravo. Bonne appétit!
A little piece of Italy in Montreal. The staff even spoke Italian amongst themselves. We loved it. Everything is delicious, especially the focaccia with the figs on top!

Nous avons découvert ce petit restaurant italien par hasard, & ce fut une expérience tout simplement superbe. L'ambiance de l'équipe est vraiment positive. L'endroit est petit & chaleureux. Nous avons pu prendre un verre en attendant notre table, & la nourriture était excellente. Nous avons particulièrement adoré la focaccia. Une adresse à recommander sans hésitation !
Le restaurant café est caché au sous-sol sur la rue St-Denis. L'endroit est petit mais ne manque pas de charme. À essayer la focaccia burrata mortadella pistaches. Délicieux & très frais ! Mention spéciale à la fine charcuterie qui est un vrai régal.
Amazing experience all around. Delicious food & coffee, great atmosphere & thoughtful service. Couldn't decide on a dessert so they made us an assortment plate, & needless to say it was delicious! They even noticed it was my birthday & sang me happy birthday & added a candle in the desserts. Thank you so much!! Truly recommend this staple to all

It's a lovely place on St Denise & the food is really good. I tried the focaccia with prosciutto, burrata & honey, which was amazing & the octopus sandwich with artichoke. Even though food was great, service lacked quite a bit & we weren't even served water until we were already paying. Other than that, it's a great place to visit to try the delicious food they offer .
Go for a workout, skii, run or do some cardio before heading here. The panzeria from Puglia are unique but oh so rich. A place where food isn't taken too seriously but where great attention is taken to prepare the dishes that showcase the best ingredients. The place is tiny & always full. If you aren't Italian, you may feel daunted & will definitely be in the minority.
Would I be back? Maybe, but for take out only. This restaurant is really small & only has a few tables, the service was quick but despite asking for water to two different waiters we didnt get until when it was time to pay. The food was good but we just didn't feel very welcomed, we saw other tables getting great service.

Delicious, cozy lunch spot. Not a big space but very welcoming like its someones home. Pasta of the day was tasty, something I could have eaten all day!
Amazing food! This little resto impressed me! The staff are super friendly & the foods are so fresh! Had the panzerotti diavolo & the orrechiette of the day! My stomach was over joyed! If you go around lunchtime, u might want to make a reservation because they get very busy!!!!
