Fantastic dining experience. Staff was exceptional, courteous, & knowledgeable of the menu & offerings. We began with the calamari to start, which was light & crispy. For the main, I ordered the chicken parmigiana with side of pasta Alfredo. Both were cooked to be perfection & so delicious. The tiramisu for dessert was a perfect end to the meal. The atmosphere was warm, inviting, & cozy. Highly recommend checking this place out. Thank you for a wonderful dining experience!
We went for our work Noel dinner, a total of 11 person... arrived at 6,25pm, the order was taken just after half hour later, & drinks came 15 min after.
Have to say tha the plastified manu in every seat was placed over the silverware 🍽 & it was kind of grease residue, not a good impression just arrived.
We order then the food, I took the table d'hôte that includes entrance, main, dessert & coffee ☕?.
The place it's indeed a noisy place, could say extra noisy, maybe because of the season time & celebration that already started.
The first dishes started to come 25 min after but my entrance was forgotten & tooked 45 min to arrive, with apologies but really late, however have to say it was really pleasant, & because of that, I was the first main course served at the table, Flank Stake that was 👍 ok.
Right after picked the dishes, the waitres brings right away the coffee, then after, she brings the dessert, was cream brulé, not bad. My wife had the eggplant 🍆 as entrance which I tried & it was exelent, & as main course Raviolis with fruit de mare, also nice dish.
We leave around 9,20-30 pm, so for not too complicated meals it took a while.
There was a seat 💺 right beside me not occupied, but the service was never picked, just a color detail
It's a place that I will recommend only if you have pleeeenty of time & no more than 4 persons at the time to be sure that will have a focused waitres, a positive experience however, the food save the night.

Conclusion:
I love Vieux Four Manago. The food was good. Atmosphere felt Cozy & it was a great experience. I would recommend it to all.
The service was excellent - fast, friendly, & efficient. The pizza was delicious & flavorful. I particularly enjoyed the seafood pasta, which had a delicious sauce. I would highly recommend trying the pizza & tiramisu. While the restaurant is a bit pricey, the quality of the food makes it worthwhile for a special occasion.
Date night 2 people total $139 tax & tip (18%) included.
I've been coming to this restaurant for years, & it truly never disappoints. The food is consistently incredible - hands down the best Italian cuisine in the West Island.
What really makes the experience special, though, is the service. Our waiter, Matthew, has always gone above & beyond every single time. He's very attentive, friendly, & always makes us feel right at home.
I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for authentic Italian food & top-notch service.
