Les critiques soulignent unanimement Moccione comme une adresse italienne remarquable où les pâtes maison et les produits de saison brillent. Les avis mettent en avant des plats généreux et savoureux, des fruits de mer aux pâtes, avec les gnocchis et le tartare de truite souvent cités, et un programme de vins qui accompagne bien la carte. Le service est décrit comme chaleureux, attentif et efficace, guidant les convives à travers le menu et partageant de bons conseils. Bien que les retours soient majoritairement positifs, certaines remarques portent sur des prix élevés, des portions peut-être plus petites que prévu et des variations ponctuelles dans le service ou la température des plats. Dans l'ensemble, l'expérience culinaire est perçue comme mémorable, avec une ambiance charmante, des touches soignées et une qualité qui donne envie de revenir.
My second visit. The first was 5 stars. The food was incredible, the service was impeccable. I booked through Resy & had a great time. Tonight was a different story. Had no reservation, walked in & sat on the terrace. Lovely beginning. Our Initial server was warm & friendly. I had a apériodique spritz & my daughter, a minor, had a lemonade. We started with carpaccio & staciatella . Our first server was busy inside, which is fine but our second server was abrupt & rude. Asked if we wanted another round of drinks & I asked for a spritz, she returned & told me no. That they don't make those at this establishment like I had asked for something terrible. Made me feel like I should be embarrassed. The food runner brought out our food. Our server did not check in with us. The tables close to us she did speak to & check in on. She would look at us & then walk away. Our plates sat in front of us for a very long time. We Ordered the cassarecce with sausage & the Campanelle with lobster bisque & cherry tomatoes. There was absolutely no lobster in the pasta & barely even a scent of it in the bisque. Ridiculous for $37 dollars. I asked if we could have it wrapped up & she said she would put them in the same box. The same box. Sausage pasta &....I said please in separate boxes. I asked for the dessert menu, she slapped it down. We decided no dessert based on the vibe & I asked for the bill. She asked if it was separate bills, I was with my daughter, a child. I said no one bill thank you. When she came back I asked if it was rude to have ordered a spritz & she went on about how I could have had an aperol or a limoncello spritz. Then she stood over me with the machine. It was overall an unpleasant experience. I will never go back
My favourite meal in Montreal probably came on my last night. During my pre-trip research, Restaurant Moccione had come up a few times as one of the better restaurants in the city -- an unassuming spot in the PM's riding of Papineau. A bit of a subway trip from downtown, but I thought I would give it a try. I'm glad I did. It's a small spot in a quiet neighborhood, tucked into a corner, but a cozy spot with an impressive walk-in wine cellar. I wish I had come slightly hungrier, as the menu looked all good, but I did have smoked meat earlier in the day. So I decided to not go crazy & order a nice pasta dish: Agnolotti stuffed with beef, mushrooms, jus de viande, parmigiano. It was truly excellent. Every bite rich & flavourful. The pasta cooked perfectly, the mushrooms delish, the meaty sauce rich & flavourful, the parm a nice bit of salt to complement. & it was the perfect size for my limited appetite. I don't often order pasta when dining out, but pasta done right is a real treat & this hit the spot.
Amazing restaurant. Slight modern take on italian food but still very traditional (full of flavour eith amazing ingredients). Calamari for starters were amazing (not fried!!) & rafu sausage pasta had nice little heat touch. Finally the beef & octopus were both beatifully executed & full of flavour. The mushrooms in the beef dish were something else. Beautiful decor & amazing service. Will go again.
Great restaurant! Service was very attentive, friendly & efficient. The food was of high quality & absolutely delicious from start to finish. Both pasta dishes we had were so good & not at all oily or salty as opposed to many other restaurants. To my surprise the calamari was my favourite dish of the night! They were fresh, perfectly cooked & the tomato sauce that came with it just really tied the whole dish together. Cocktails were also impressive & our waitress made great wine recommendations. Overall a great experience & worth the splurge. Would definitely recommend.

Fabulous experience at Moccione. From the moment we sat down the service was excellent & lots of interesting wines to try by the glass.
Starting with entrees of arancini, calamari in arabiata sauce & zucchini flowers stuffed with ricotta was awesome. Pasta dish after was better than any we had in Italy. & finally the grilled octopus was to die for. Cannoli were a superb ending!
All in all an excellent evening & we will definitely be back soon.
This place was soooooo good. I was skeptical because I had just arrived from Italy & doubted the food would be as good. Boy was I surprised. The Negroni sbagliato was done to perfection, the meat was amazing, the pasta was fabulous, the veal ragú was delicious & the stracciatella with tomatoes & basil was a dream. I would definitely come back here, no wonder this place has such amazing reviews.
The hostess was incredibly nice & she even spoke some Spanish with us! Try this place out for a romantic dinner, you will blow your partner's socks off!
