I really love the atmosphere of this place! The service was good & quick. There were a lot of dish options, I didn't know what to choose. I ended up getting the one with filet mignon & it was okay, it just didn't really feel like the special fresh pasta that you'd expect. My husband got the Linguini Jacques Cartier & it was really good. The ricotta tarte was amazing! The sala bar had tomatoes, a potato salad, a chickpea salad, kale, & macaroni. We got there early on a Saturday evening & there was a line. They don't have reservations.

Un tout petit restaurant dans le Vieux Montréal, pas très loin du port, où les rues sont en pavés & où l'atmosphère est chaleureux & intime. Le service est impeccable & les assiettes sont succulentes, peu importe le choix que l'on fait. Les amateurs de pâtes seront bien servis. Fortement recommandé.

OVERPRICED BARILLA! I expected to have a nice pasta, prepared by hand but instead they serve a basic Barilla that you can buy in any store & boil yourself. The meatball that comes with pasta No.14 also feels like they bought it in a supermarket & just heated it. To ask 24$ for such a quality is a crime! The sauce in pasta is over spiced with rosemary, too much, not enjoyable at all! Feels like someone tried to cook pasta for a 1st time really! If you buy a ready to eat Italian sauce in a supermarket, it would be better than this one for sure. The atmosphere was very tourist, but not in a good sense like the Banquise, more like very crowded & dark. The salad bar that is included in the pasta price is very basic, simple pasta salad with mayo, potato with mayo, nothing worthwhile. The bread they serve is also from a supermarket & not from a good one. I expected to enjoy some freshly baked tasty bread, but it is not the case! The garlic butter is very artificial & it also from a store & it is a cheap one. The burrata costs 24$ & it is small & not fresh! The fresh burrata should be a bit liquid on the inside, this one is more firm. The waiters do not replenish the water. Over all, it is a place which serves cheap food from a supermarket but puts an overpriced tag on it, do not recommend.
