I had heard a lot of good things about this restaurant & was looking forward to trying it. There were definitely some positives - a few dishes were very good, & the younger staff members were friendly & welcoming throughout the evening.

Unfortunately, the experience was let down by a couple of issues. The cod pasta was highly recommended to us, & we were even told we were lucky there was still some left. Sadly, it ended up being the biggest disappointment of the meal. I did not enjoy it at all & felt sick throughout the night & into the next morning afterward.

The other issue was with service from an older staff member. At one point, she came to remove a plate that we were still eating. When we politely told her we weren't finished, she gave us a dirty look that felt unnecessary & made the interaction uncomfortable.

I can see why people enjoy this place, as there were some good dishes & the younger staff were great. However, between the cod pasta & the service issue, this visit fell well short of expectations. I'm not sure I would return.

Honestly one of the best Italian fresh pasta places in Montreal. A must visit for fresh ingredients, impeccable service & a culinary adventure hard to pass on.

We had a wonderful experience at Restaurant Moccione! Every dish was beautifully prepared. We enjoyed zucchini flowers stuffed with fresh ricotta. The outside was crispy & the ricotta creamy. The arancini had delicious melted cheesy centers. Pastas were perfectly al dente. I recommend the tortelli. & to finish, we had the best cannoli I have ever eaten. The shell was crisp & the ricotta filling not too sweet with pistachio on one end & a candied orange slice on the other. This was our favorite restaurant in Montreal!!

Loved the energy here & the service was sweet, but the menu is a bit of a mixed bag. 🤷?♀?

The seafood dishes are absolute standouts. The trout tartare & octopus were fire. But the beef pasta & the arancini just didn't hit the same level.

Also, the desserts were kind of a letdown. Overall, it's a great spot for drinks & small plates, just choose wisely!

Unassuming , comforting & just delicious food. Combination of flavors in the artichoke & Mozarella Di Bufalla appetizers were wonderful. Pasta dishes were all so fresh & satisfying. We will return undoubtedly .

High quality small plates at reasonable prices & paired with excellent service. We tried most of the appetizers & a few main dishes. Our favorites & the ones we would definitely recommend were the crudo, trout tartare, calamari & octopus (& lots of bread, of course).

That said, some dishes were less impressive. The desserts felt lacklustre (cannoli & baba tiramisu) & we didn't enjoy the beef pasta or the cheese arancini.

Overall, a solid experience with standout seafood dishes, though not every item on the menu hit the same level.

Moccione is an absolute standout. The food is exceptional-homemade pasta taken to a whole other level, with incredible depth of flavor & attention to detail in every dish.

Reservations are definitely hard to come by, but it's more than worth the effort. From the moment you walk in, the staff makes you feel genuinely welcome-warm, friendly, & attentive without being overbearing.

A special place that lives up to the hype & then some. Highly recommended.

Delicious! Loved their mocktails, the scallops crudo, mozzarella di buffalo, cavatelli ragu, & the truffle pasta! Everything was fresh & the flavors were all balanced. Nice vibe, I would definitely return.

Excellent experience at Moccione. The fried fish was great, the tartare was even better, & the squid was amazing. The pasta with mushrooms was outstanding, everything tasted fresh & made with real care. Service was impeccable, perfectly timing each dish around our conversation.
All around an excellent meal. Gladly recommend.
