We came to this restaurant previously for my grandmother's birthday. We loved the food & the service & when organizing our daughter's baptism, we instinctively thought to come back here. The owner Derek, did an outstanding job accommodating all of our wishes & delivering on his promise of quality. The day of the baptism, the staff set up the place setting cards & the dessert table perfectly. The restaurant looked great. The food was delicious, fresh & plentiful. The service was impeccable, on point & extremely courteous. When all of our guests left the consensus was unanimous: that they had a great time & absolutely loved both the food & service. My wife & I are extremely satisfied with everything La Verita did for us & our daughter. We highly recommend this restaurant for family events (& dining as well) & we will definitely be back.

La Verita hosted our work holiday party. From the very outset, Derek & his team were accommodating & responsive. They provided many menu options, & allowed for changes to suit our group’s needs. The night of the event was beyond our expectations. Every detail was handled by their team, & we were able to enjoy our night. The food, the atmosphere, & the service were exceptional. We had a set menu that included mixed appetizers, salad, main course, & dessert. Every course was delicious, & the tiramisu was perfection. One of the best meals I’ve had in the West Island.
Every one of my colleagues commented on what a great night they had. I would definitely recommend La Verita if you are looking for somewhere to hold an event. I will surely be returning here with friends & family.
La Verita is my go-to restaurant for date night, Christmas party, & private parties because of the exceptional food & absolute attention to detail with the service. It is a perfect balance of sophistication & yet warm familiarity. Every dish is a tasty work of art. The service is always excellent from start to finish. The staff pays attention to every detail! Highly recommended.
After eating at many reputed restaurants in Montreal like 'Da Emma' & 'Toqué' this restaurant really impressed me. Everything from the side salad, to the bread, & the main dish were executed perfectly. I especially recommend to order some kind of meet in your dish.
Excellent food & first class service! Deserves way beyond a 5 star rating!
We just had our twin’s communion party at La Verita Restaurant this past weekend & could not have asked for a more perfect experience!
A big thank you to Derek & his staff for making our boy’s party so special! The food was absolutely delicious & the service was outstanding! The staff was extremely attentive to all our needs. We highly recommend this restaurant for parties, family gatherings or even for just an evening out!
At the end of November 2014, we hosted our daughter's baptism at La Verità. We were graced with the presence of 74 of our friends & family. The event was perfect & we were proud to have chosen this venue for this special occasion. The restaurant is only open for private parties on Sundays so we got to enjoy this place all to ourselves.
First, let me point out that the restaurant itself is a beautiful, modern setting that requires nothing at all. This made our job as hosts that much easier! We prepared placecards to guide our guests to their seats & the staff had prepared the table at the entrance with the said cards beautifully. In addition, the staff took great care in setting up our party favours on the bar area. The setup of the favours was stunning & made the favours look that much nicer!
Secondly, we cannot say enough about the food....& our guests kept raving about it. We obviously chose this restaurant further to a tasting & the meal was just as delicious as the day we sampled it despite the volume. Our menu consisted of the following:
1) Foccacia
2) Pasta
3) Salad
4) Choice of filet mignon or salmon
5) we brought our own dessert
Having selected the filet mignon ourselves, we can simply say that it melts in your mouth. Our guests were just as delighted with the salmon. The presentation of the food was also very nice.
The staff was very attentive to our needs & to those of our guests. They were beyond courteous & extremely diligent in serving both the food & the drinks to our guests promptly. Never did we feel rushed through our meal or with regard to the evening itself for that matter.
For dessert, we served a cake & macarons. All went well & we have no complaints with regard to the service of this course either.
As a bonus, the children were seated at a table facing a flat screen television. We were able to bring DVD's to keep them entertained in their little corner. Great for the adults to be able to enjoy their own meal!
Finally, we highly recommend La Verità for any private party...they have clearly mastered the art of catering to a big crowd! We are proud of our choice & beemed with joy knowing our guests were that impressed.
Thank you to Derek & his great team!

We recently had my son's post wedding reception at this restaurant & I must say, it exceeded my expectations. The food was exceptional, the atmosphere was beautiful & the service was impeccable. I would like to thank Derek & his staff for making this event a memorable one. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone planning a gathering or to just go for a quiet dinner. We had 65 guests & the restaurant was beautifully set. By the way, they have a beautiful outdoor terrace, which was great for our guests to have a drink & relax. Biggest hit: Braised Lamb Shank & the octopus!!!
I had my daughter's confirmation on Saturday & was impressed by the service & food. I was a few minutes late but once seated my party & I were served immediately. I cannot say enough of the octopus ( I think everyone could of just eaten that alone!). I had a great menu ( pasta, veal, fish) & not having tried the food prior to the event I enjoyed everything. Service (Carlo & Lucas) was very attentive. Would I recommend to have your party there yes, romantic evening yes. Try it & see for yourselves if I am not wrong!
