La Spada se présente comme une adresse italienne authentique et chaleureuse, où l'on retrouve des pâtes maison savoureuses et des plats mijotés riches en saveur, le tout dans une ambiance cosy et festive idéale pour une soirée entre amis ou une date. Le service est globalement apprécié pour son accueil et son professionnalisme, avec des expériences où les vins et cocktails brillent, mais certains passages signalent des services inégaux, des plats arrivant tièdes ou trop salés et un rythme parfois pressé ou lent selon les moments. On apprécie la convivialité et le partage, le pain et la focaccia, les mises en bouche et les desserts soignés, et la carte offre des burrata, arancini, pâtes ragù et pappardelle, ainsi que des viandes et fruits de mer bien cuisinés. L'endroit est décrit comme chic sans prétention, avec un décor rappelant Rome et une ambiance animée, et beaucoup de convives considèrent qu'il s'agit d'une des meilleures expériences italiennes à Montréal, même si le prix peut sembler élevé et que certains soirs peuvent manquer de cohérence.
From start to finish my experience for the first time at La Spada was top tier.
The ambiance was exactly what you want in a restaurant. It was trendy, high energy, welcoming, buzzing but not uncomfortably loud.
Great location with valet parking on a corner.
The service was impeccable
Highly knowledgeable wait staff. Friendly, attractive, smiling, & full of recommendations on what to drink & eat.
Now the food…
AMAZING!!!
I started with the Caesar, which if you judge a restaurant based on this salad like me, then you'd heavily approve
Then the carbonara which was delicious, creamy & rich in all the right ways
& shared a delicious med rare lobsters that was truly Devine!
Will I come back?
I want to live in the janitors closet & do the dishes everyday for free meals! 🤣
Definitely one of my favourite Italian restaurants

Splendid experience as usual, super attentive servers & outstanding pasta & drinks. We were disappointed that the exquisite squash ravioli was no longer on the winter menu but the vodka rosé rigatoni made up for it. The dessert of the moment was also incredible; like a soft shell chewy pistachio volcano with a cake-stuffed meringue centre. We will be back very soon xo

La Spada is an absolute gem.
We had the most incredible experience from start to finish, thanks especially to Chanelle - truly one of the best bartenders & servers we've ever had. Her energy, attention, & creativity made the night unforgettable. The drinks she crafted were mind?blowing.
& the food… wow. The homemade pappardelle was on another level - rich, fresh, & easily one of the best pasta dishes I've had anywhere. Every bite felt like a little trip to Italy.
If you're looking for amazing Italian food, exceptional service, & a warm, welcoming atmosphere, La Spada is a must. We can't wait to go back.
An absolute gem! The service is incredible, our waiter frank was super sweet, attentive & the front of house is so on top of their game, always filling your drinks, cleaning up, getting you what you need. The food was incredible & the decor & holiday touches felt so homey. Will absolutely be back!
I had dinner last night at this spot.
Where to start!! It was beyond my expectations.
The food was excellent, the décor was fancy & elegant, & the waiters were dressed in a Gatsby vibe (nothing vulgar).
The service was excellent. It was my friend's birthday - they offered a dessert, & they even took the time to prepare a special cocktail & offered it to us!
I met the manager; very nice & friendly.
I didn't feel the urge to consume more food or drinks, unlike other places in Montreal.
Definitely a restaurant to go back to again & again.
The food was good, the vibe was fun. However the pacing of the meal was unfortunate - we waited a while for our order to be taken & for our drinks to come, then as soon as we ordered they brought the appetizer & the meal at the same time. Luckily the food was yummy. The place is very loud & the music is a bit cliché but the overall vibe is lovely & fun.

Our night was ruined by awful service from start to finish. We got appetizers before our drinks even arrived, which was just the beginning of a frustrating evening. The waitress started off okay but quickly became rude & inattentive. She interrupted our conversation abruptly, demanding to know if we wanted one bill or three-what if we wanted another drink? No consideration at all.
To make things worse, with only three tables left in the entire restaurant, the'manager' had the nerve to come over & bluntly tell us they were closing. No apology, no effort to acknowledge that it was my friend's birthday-just pure disrespect & zero class.
The food was nothing special, & the whole experience felt rushed & dismissive. I'm done with this place. There are plenty of restaurants that actually know how to treat customers.
This place deserves all the stars it can get. The food was incredible, very flavourful & well cooked, & the drinks are original & super tasty. The ambiance was energetic, & I loved the Italian music & vibe. The service was 10/10/10, from the moment we walked in until the end. The manager Luca was very accommodating to our big group, even though they were booked, he found us a cozy spot in the restaurant & insured we enjoyed our time.
100% recommended if you're looking for good food & good times
Amazing ambience & ever better food! I loved everything at Spada. They have done an amazing job at delivering high quality food & great service.
We loved the Duck Ragu (super deep flavour) & Fritto Misto (fried seafood, I could drink the aioli it came with). Funghi Gnocchi & Brussel sprouts were highlights as well.
The service was very attentive (so attentive that a server offered to take my gum I spat into my wrapper; I did not let them). The bartenders made amazing drinks & servers always made sure things were clean & taken care of.
They managed to pull off an incredibly authentic Italian American ambiance without it seeming tacky or overdone. I felt like I was at a Nonnàs house or in the Sopranos in the best way possible. Bonus points for the large pepper mill & old phone.
I recommend this to anyone looking for Italian food in Montreal, perfect for a date or a group of friends or just a nice dinner out.
Prices were very fair for the quality even though on the higher end.

My friend & I were there last night. We sat at the bar. The service was beyond our expectations. Hamza made for us delicious drinks & gave us great service. Thank you!
I was so impressed that literally EVERYTHING was delicious. Like i'd give a 10/10 to everything I had from drinks to mains. It was so good & the service was perfect as well. I can't stop telling my friends about it & I think their strawberry shortcake is the best I ever had. Thanks La Spada, I will be back🙂

When we lived in NDG, Amerigo was our go-to spot. After moving just a few streets away from La Spada, we had to give it a try, & it did not disappoint! The food & drinks are fantastic, & the staff is awesome. Good food & vibes, highly recommend!
Amazing ambiance. Music was not too loud & good vibe. Food was amazing, drinks were quick to come & everyone was so friendly. Great night! Love this place!
Went to LA Spada on a Tuesday night & it had a really vibrant atmosphere. Staff was friendly... got to meet the owner. Started with the house made foccacia... & it was great. We ordered the Gnocchi with mushrooms. Very good... the Cacio & Pepe, & The chicken cutlet. All very good. I really liked the chicken because it wasn't your traditional basic chicken parm dish. There were a variety of flavors to it. Wait staff was friendly & attentive. If I had to really nitpick to find something to improve on... it would possibly be drink times...but even then when a resto is full its to be expected. All in all a great addition to the neighborhood, & I can't wait to go try more dishes soon!
Very pretty place & very happening for a Tuesday evening. Service was great. Drinks were excellent. I loved the pepperoncini (a spicy twist on a good martini). We had the eggplant parmigiana which was my favorite dish , the caccio e pepe & the ravioli francese. Everything was very tasty I just didn't find the pasta dishes were hot enough. Overall good experience.
