Marci Restaurant specializes in wood-fired sourdough pizzas that emphasize long fermentation techniques to achieve a distinctively airy and charred crust. The menu showcases a modern fusion approach, blending traditional Italian preparation methods with creative toppings that reflect a contemporary culinary sensibility. Diners encounter a selection of small plates and vegetable-forward dishes that complement the primary pizza offerings through high-quality seasonal ingredients. The interior environment prioritizes a functional and minimalist aesthetic that keeps the focus squarely on the open-fire kitchen operations. Efficient service models prioritize the rapid turnover of artisan pies prepared directly within a high-heat stone oven. This establishment functions as a focal point for those seeking a technical and straightforward interpretation of grain-based Italian fusion staples in a streamlined setting.
Marci is widely celebrated as a vibrant and trendy destination in Montreal, offering a cozy and welcoming atmosphere that is perfect for dates, group gatherings, or casual outings. Guests consistently praise the delicious, high quality menu, with standout dishes such as the crispy broccoli, flavorful meatballs, varied pizzas, and the indulgent banana panna cotta. The restaurant features a thoughtful wine selection and a charming, stylish interior that enhances the overall dining experience. While individual experiences can vary, many visitors highlight the friendly, professional service and great value for the quality provided, making it a highly recommended spot on Rue Saint Hubert.
I've had this restaurant on my list for almost 2 years & finally got to visit, I was not disappointed! The fried broccoli was definitely the highlight. We also really enjoyed the pasta & pizza. I will say the pizza is nothing WOW but it was still really great.
The spicy sauce & ranch dipping sauce they gave us for the pizza was yummy as well.
Generally not a huge fan of banana based desserts but we were pleasantly surprised by the bananacotta. Definitely recommend flipping the page for the secret menu! Service & seating were great, no complaints. We'll be returning to try more things & get that broccoli again :)

Dessert: Baked Alaska, c était ok sans plus
Sélection de vins au verre: Ce serait apprécié d'avoir des vins style Chardonnay disponibles
Très satisfait de notre expérience, on y retournerait
The atmosphere, service & food were phenomenal. Great place to get a bottle of wine & yap with the girlies. 🌟 (Not pictured, the charred broccoli was a fan fav at our table! Def give it a try)
Marci has been all over my feed lately on social media lately, so I had to see if the hype was real. After visiting on a packed Wednesday night, I'd say it's a bit of a mixed bag, but definitely worth a visit if you go in with the right strategy.
The Atmosphere & Service: First off, the decor & vibes are 10/10. It's moody, beautiful, & feels like the place to be in Montreal right now. Our waiter was incredibly kind & gave us some solid advice on the menu!
One heads-up: The space isn't huge & because it's so popular with groups, the noise levels were a bit bothersome. It can get quite loud, making it a bit hard to hear each other across the table. Pro tip: Book weeks in advance; we snagged our table early, & even on a weeknight, there wasn't an empty seat in the house.
The Food (A Group-Style Affair):
Just something to keep in mind, there aren't really'appetizers' here. The menu is curated for groups to share everything. Since there were only two of us wanting different things, it was a bit of a struggle to navigate the'share everything' format.
What we ordered:
• Chicken Parm (9/10): Absolute superstar. The portion is massive & it was cooked perfectly. A must-order!
• Meatballs (7/10): Solid, flavorful, & a great addition to the table.
• Tomato Pie (4/10): I know this is the'viral' dish, but I honestly didn't get the hype. It fell a bit flat for me compared to the other plates.
Know Before You Go:
• Portion Sizes: They are huge. Don't over-order!
• Sides: Be aware that veggies/sides (like broccoli) don't come with the mains; you have to order them separately (one again, portions are huge!).
• Best for Groups: I'd recommend coming here with a party of 4+ rather than a date or a night for two people, just so you can sample more of the menu & match the high-energy volume of the room.
Summary: Go for the incredible service & the Chicken Parm, but maybe skip the tomato pie if you aren't a die-hard fan of that style!
