The linguine with blue cheese was incredible. The most inventive way I have had blue cheese. My family hates blue cheese & they all loved this dish. That says it all. Also had the boar rigatoni which was very good. The chicken parm was delicious & the lasagna was pretty good but that was the weakest dish. The service was top notch. The table bread came with some flavoured butter which was very nice. The all you can eat salad bar was a fun touch & & old school vibe I loved. The ambiance is amazing. The price was right. The wait is worth it. Just make sure that when you give your name you stay in line to hear your name called.
Molt bona opció per menjar al centre de la ciutat, a uns preus raonables. La carta es basa en alguns entrats i plats de pasta molt complets, amb bufet d'amanides inclòs al preu (també hi ha opció de fer només bufet d'amanida com a plat únic, per 16$). Hi ha un apartat per a criatures, amb plats de pasta més petits i barats. No hi ha massa plats vegetarians.
Em um ambiente de muitos restaurantes turísticos fui surpreendida por um ambiente tranquilo acolhedor com comida deliciosa e'fresca' de excelente qualidade. Parabéns especial a mesa de saladas gratuita que acompanha o prato Maravilhoso.

Wow!! Perfect dinner spot in the heart of Old Port Montreal. Charming historical atmosphere, reasonable prices, dinner comes with rolls & salad bar (coleslaw, chickpeas, kale, sweet potato). We had melt in your mouth lamb shank & fresh pasta, fettuccine Alfredo with crispy chicken, & mushroom risotto - all delicious, very generous portions. & our server was very friendly & attentive. Wonderful!!!
Une valeur sûre pour nous depuis près de 5 ans! On revient toujours avec plaisir pour la qualité constante des plats, les saveurs bien équilibrées & la fraîcheur des ingrédients. C'est le genre d'endroit où l'on sait qu'on passera un bon moment.
Le service est toujours agréable & l'ambiance conviviale. J'enlève simplement une étoile parce qu'il y a encore quelques petits détails qui pourraient rendre l'expérience irréprochable.
Une adresse qu'on continue de fréquenter avec plaisir & qu'on recommande sans hésiter.
Amazing place with amazing service, the food is absolutely delicious (try the #3). Perfection. Waiter was amazing friendly fast service & seating, great ambiance & a salad bar comes with meals.
?I visited this place for the second time, & I can now confidently say that their pasta is among the best I have ever tasted. The spaghetti is fresh & cooked perfectly, hitting that exact sweet spot between al dente & soft. They offer a wide variety of options that cater to all tastes. I personally love their lobster pasta, but the other dishes are excellent as well; just choose what fits your preference & you will likely enjoy it.
?They also offer a complimentary salad bar, which is a generous & great touch.
?Pasta prices range between $20 & $40. Given the large portions, the free salad bar, & the high quality, the pricing feels incredibly fair.
?The service here is excellent. The staff is professional, & they even offer fresh parmesan right at your table.
?Finally, I really love the decor, the seating, & the overall ambiance. It is the perfect spot to catch up with friends, talk, & enjoy a fantastic meal.
