La Scacciata stands out for fresh, authentic Sicilian flavors with house-made focaccia bread for sandwiches, stellar arancini, and a Milanese that impresses, while the in-house pastry, coffee, and gelato offer a complete Italian cafe feel; guests describe a warm, family-run atmosphere, welcoming staff, and generous portions at reasonable prices, with the terrace a bonus in warm weather; a few critiques include occasional oily pizza, slower service at times, and some variation in fillings, but overall the reviews paint it as a charming, reliable spot worth returning to for good food and friendly vibes.
Ordered the prosciutto sandwich. Nothing special. Bread was mid, prosciutto had no taste & too much honey. Not worth the price point. Just being honest.
I ordered the truffle mushroom pizza & it was *pure dream* fresh, insanely flavorful, & so generous. The dough was unbelievably soft… honestly the best I've had in the city.
Also tried the arancini ball stuffed with beef sauce & cheese WOW. Served with a rich, generous sauce & topped with their in house truffle mayo, it felt like such a luxurious treat.
Everything was beyond delicious. A must-try

Je suis venu durant la journée un jour de semaine avec ma fille pour venir voir ce qui avait remplacé l'ancienne boulangerie. Je n'ai pas été déçu! L'ambiance est chaleureuse. J'ai bien aimé la déco. Le service est impeccable. J'ai eu toute un accueil pour ma première visite. La sandwich que j'ai commandé (la marsala) était délicieux. Je recommande fortement d'y aller essayer.
Went in for coffee & was pleasantly surprised by the offering of foods & drinks. The owner is so warm & welcoming. He went out of his way for us. We will definitely be going back
Five-star experience! 🍝 Huge shoutout to the owner for being so accommodating with my dietary restrictions. It's rare to find such high-quality GF & LF options paired with such warm, welcoming service. A must-visit!! Also, if your looking for real gelato imported from Italy, this is the place to go.
Found this place online & decided to try it out. WOW did we make a good choice. The food is so fresh & so delicious. MUST TRY. They also let me know they have a terrace where I can enjoy my sandwich with my pup in the summer. We tried the Milanese, Bologna & Agrigento. All so yummy. Thanks! We will be back
Such a tasty shop! Pizza & sandwiches taste so fresh & clean. Ingredients shipped from Italy. Everything about this store is so warm & authentic. Definitely a must try!

The food's absolutely excellent & filling, the atmosphere's calm & chill & the waitresses are always polite with me. There's a reason I always wind up here after mass Sundays!
La Scacciata on Notre-Dame is a gem! Their espressos & drinks are top-tier, & the Italian food is always fresh & authentic. The staff is incredible, treating every guest like family. Plus, their outdoor terrace is the perfect spot to relax in the summer. A must-visit for great vibes & food!
