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 standout destination in Montreal, offering a lively and unpretentious atmosphere perfect for dates, groups, or casual outings. Guests consistently praise the high-quality, flavorful Italian-inspired menu, with the fried broccoli, pizza, and various pasta dishes frequently cited as must-try items. While the restaurant is often busy and requires advance reservations, the service is generally described as friendly and attentive, contributing to an overall warm experience. Although a few visitors noted inconsistencies regarding seating arrangements, portion sizes for group menus, or occasional service pace, the majority of patrons highly recommend Marci for its excellent value, delicious food, and inviting decor.
Phenomenal food! Pizza was out of this world, mushroom gnocchi home made. The cocktails were excellent & the service was attentive & quick. Definitely will become a Sunday night favourite!
J'ai adoré les plats, surtout le hamachi, je le recommande fortement. Coté service, on dirait qu'ils attendaient qu'on termine chaque plat avant de sortir le reste, tandis qu'on preferait tout recevoir en mème temps. Aussi, côté cocktails, il y a seulement 3 types de cocktail de disponible, pas très varié.
Superbe découverte ! Niché sur la plaza Saint-Hubert, le restaurant offre un menu qui marie les classiques avec des tournures originales à un excellent prix. Ça permet d'essayer plus de plats & ça donne envie de revenir pour goûter le reste du menu. Les cocktails sont bons à bon prix aussi, une recommandation facile pour tous !

First things first, we ordered 6 things & all six dishes were amazing. We will definitely be back. I would've given it a 5 star, but we were seated at this tiny little high chair table, the kind where your feet are dangling & it was super uncomfortable. The ambiance of the restaurant is great, music is kinda terrible but it's quiet so you don't notice it, & if I'm being honest, I think my experience still would've been 10/10 if my feet were just touching the ground. It sounds like I'm being a Karen but my boyfriend's a big guy, & we order a lot of food. If you're here for two hours your feet are numb by the second hour. It wasn't the right seating choice for us, but frankly I don't think anyone should have to sit at this kind of table, it was almost enough for us to leave.
With that being said, we were served by Marie, she was so sweet & helpful, she helped us find a delicious bottle of bubbles, & recommended some great dishes. She's half the reason we stayed, the food was the other, & I'm so glad we did. She promised us there would be a note in our file that would promise we'd never sit at those tables again, & she understood why it was uncomfy for us. I'm not usually a complainer I promise !!! Wonderful wine selection, & their cocktails look great, I'll try one next time. Also we ordered a lot, like we were very full, & the portions are big, & our bill only came out to 200$. 6 dishes, & a bottle of bubbles. Wow.
Here's what you need to order, the hamachi, delicious. The broccoli, the reviews are right, it's a must have. The duck confit salad, fresh, delicious crisp duck on top. The meatballs, not my personal favourite but my boyfriend insists they're a must. The secret menu pepperoni pizza, crisp, cheesy & wonderful, ask for their spicy sauce on the side. OH!!! & how can I forget the bananacotta dessert, holy moly!!! Sooooo delicious. Not heavy at all, it's nice & light & tasted exactly like when you lick the spoon after you're done making banana bread. The slightly salty, sweet & crispy biscoff on top was a wonderful touch. You have to order it.
So moral of the story, if you get stuck at that shitty seat because they're very booked, just stay at the shitty table & enjoy the delicious food you're about to eat, & ask to be seated in Marie's section.
Pizza & Caesar salad were good. Beyond awful cocktail- like worst martini I ever tasted & no other regular bar rail drink options available. Service was meh (they stuck us as the upstairs bar which was low key abandoned). Broccoli was also underwhelming. Don't feel the need to return here unless I'm in the neighborhood & really craving pizza.
Super soirée au Marci, la nourriture y est de très bonne qualité & le choix des boissons est riche. & les serveurs ne rechignent pas à vous faire un cocktail qui n'est pas à la carte.
Gros point fort sur la déco aussi qui vaut le détour.
En bref, je recommande.
J'ai découvert Marci dans le cadre d'une rencontre avec 5 autres inconnus un mercredi soir grâce à l'application Timeleft. J'ai passé une belle soirée chez Marci. La pizza est très bonne. Bien cuite, bien garnie & très goûteuse. Par contre, la sélection de cocktail est assez limitée & il n'y a pas d'ouverture à faire d'autres drinks hors de ce qui est sur la carte. Bien que cela soit possible (espresso martini par exemple alors qu'il y a martini classique de disponible & des espresso) L'ambiance est chaleureuse. Le service est bien.
Okay, to begin with just wow. This was not my first time here, I'd gone for cocktails in the past which were always memorable such as their fine martinis which are always a treat. However this was the first time I would order food. Had a fun little self date which absolutely recommend to anyone during the exam period when you need to unwind. The way to go is definitely start with oysters & either a Guiness or a glass of wine to boost those vitamins, then a little app or as I did go for the incredibly delicious chicken parm that killed it on since it kept all the right textures with maybe a little cocktail, then order another little dish if you've got room or move onto dessert. Any dessert would be incredible here but the mousse oh lord the mousse had this seductive velvetyness kind of like Jessica Rabbit. The people there are genuine warm souls & the vibe is beautifully effervescent, plus if the night is still young as you trundle out of there you can always go to any of the bars open late on the same street. Perfect for a cute date night or if you just want a nice little bite to yourself.
