It was my friend's birthday so we decided to go full baller. I heard great things about this place & it didn't disappoint.
Cool family style Italian restaurant decor, but definitely with bougie accents. The crowd fit the decor perfectly.
The menu is classic Italian. We chose the focaccia, arancini - they change every week - & the burrata.
We skipped the pasta & went for a big ol' cowboy steak we split between us, with roasted potatoes & brocolini. Everything was fantastic, the bread had a salty crust which was delicious, the arancini perfect & the best steak I've had in quite a while. The sauce was unnecessary, but too good to not use.
Big kudos on the wine list too, lots of variety & natural options.
The only minor criticism was that when we were asked to vacate our table & finish our digestivo at the bar to let other patrons get seated, I would have expected a token gesture on their part - a shot or dessert to split. But I guess this is 2025 & the rules of dining out have changed.
Either way, we had a fabulous meal, the staff was nice, very professional.
Definitely not a cheap night out, but the quality & value were there, so I recommend this spot.View more

Service was really nice & food was pretty good. We tried the caesar salad (huge btw), special of the day (cacio e pepe arancini), ragu & carbonara. Appetizers were excellent. Ragu was full of flavors & depth but a bit too salty for us. Carbonara was good but something was missing (sauce was not sticking to the pasta). Overall nice experience!View more

I cannot recommend this restaurant enough. The food, the atmosphere, the service, the choice of music, the quality & taste of every single dish. For sure one of my favourite restaurants in Montreal after one visit. Will be back multiple times.View more

One of my new favorite Italian restaurants. We've been back 2 times & loved it both times. They're menu changes here & there but the squid dishes are always fire. The Caesar salad is amazing too!View more

Overall a mid experience. The food started strong with our smaller plates, but the pasta dishes were disappointing. Overall, what stuck with us is how rushed the service felt, which took away from the entire experience. There is far better in MTL for the price point.View more

Best modern Italian food you can find in Montreal. Impeccable service & a great cocktail list too. You can't go wrong with the menu. Order anything & you will be blown away. Liam is the goat. My group of 5 had so much fun. The staff here know what they're doing & it shows. Can't wait to come backView more

LOVED it! From the service to the vibe to the amazing food & wine, you can't go wrong at La Spada. Our waiter was amazing, & super helpful, as was the rest of the staff. The red wine from Montepulciano made me temporarily forget about the gloomy weather outside & everything from the appetizers (burrata on micro greens & eggplants as well as arancini stuffed with truffle rizzoto) to the dessert (Ferrero Rocher cake) was absolutely delicious.View more

We had a team dinner here on Friday & had such a fantastic experience! There was a small mix-up with our guest numbers when we arrived, but the staff were so kind & quick to sort everything out-they really went above & beyond. The food was absolutely incredible (special shoutout to the carbonara-it was next level!), & the atmosphere made for a really fun night. We had such a great time & would 100% recommend this spot. We'll definitely be back!View more

I unfortunately had a terrible experience at this restaurant. Never have I been treated so disgracefully. They told us to leave after 1:45 minutes because they had mismanaged their reservations for the evening. It was ok, we just wanted to finish our glass of wine. The waiter agreed. But somehow the hostess felt the need to come to our table again, two minutes later, to tell us to leave immediately. It made us all terribly uncomfortable & ruined the entire evening. This is simply not a way to treat patrons who just spent nearly 500$ in your establishment.
