It has absolutely stunning ambience in the back of the store with historical artifacts on the wall & even the old store sign from when it was one. The food on top of that is even better. I had the chicken parmigiana with spaghetti. Their home made sauce is definitely one of the best. We also had the gratinated garlic bread, it was seriously delicious. For dessert I had the strawberry cheesecake which had an absolutely amazing presentation & incredible texture.

Bottom line, if you're looking for an Italian place to go to while in Montreal. Go here.

We visited this restaurant around 7:00pm on a weekend, & there was a surprisingly long line-we ended up waiting about 40 minutes before getting seated. Since we really wanted to try their food, we came back the next day around 11:30am for lunch, & luckily, there was no wait at all! If you want to avoid the crowd, I highly recommend coming for an early lunch instead of dinner.

The pasta dishes were the highlight-we ordered the red pasta with steak & the lobster pasta. The red sauce was rich & flavorful, but unfortunately, the steak (which we requested medium) came out dry & overcooked. The lobster pasta, however, was fantastic-creamy, well-seasoned, & much better than the beef dish.

For dessert, we tried the crème brûlée & tiramisu. The crème brûlée had a unique floral hint, which made it stand out-definitely worth ordering! The tiramisu, though, was a bit disappointing-it leaned too dry & sweet for my taste. I prefer mine more moist with a stronger coffee bitterness.

Overall, a solid spot for pasta (especially the lobster!) & crème brûlée, but the steak & tiramisu could use some improvement. Go early to skip the line!
