We opted for the tasting menu for a table of 4. The food was excellent the wine was excellent. However the servings were inadequate for 4 people to share. Very costly overpriced for 2 strands of pasta & 4 slices of meat person. For the same price we should have ordered a la carte. So buyer beware, tasting menu is literally a tasting not a meal.
Discovered this spot while looking for an alternative to another well known restaurant in the area - that was fully booked. Staff & service is excellent - location is great. The menu changes often so best to check the menu online before dining at Mucca. That said the appetizers (Burratta & fig & charcuterie board) were great & served with warm homemade bread. The restaurant is known for its beef but we opted for the two pasta dishes. One was delicious, but the spaghetti with fried zucchini was disappointingly bland even after asking for salt & additional cheese. The pasta it's self (made daily) was cooked well - just the seasoning was off on the spaghetti as mentioned. dessert was fantastic, wine selection great- my friend & I would come back, & I agree with previous comments about Mucca being a great date spot.

My girlfriend & I recently had a delightful date night at Mucca in Little Italy, & it exceeded our expectations in every way. To start we ordered the beef tartare & the burrata, both of which were exquisite. The sauces accompanying these dishes were a true highlight. The pasta was equally impressive, with a rich & savory taste that left us craving for more, as did the charcuterie board. We couldn't help but admire the tantalizing meat dishes served around us, making us eager to return & dip into the excellent wine list. To top it all off, the service was top-notch, making my girlfriend feel safe with her allergies, & the cozy, classy ambiance created the perfect setting for a romantic evening. Mucca is undoubtedly a restaurant we'll be revisiting soon.
It was our first time at MUCCA & we went there for a special occasion. The friendly & knowledgeable staff makes all the difference when you go out to eat. The food was good & the wine suggestion for our meal was on point. The decor is minimalist & fresh. I really liked the open fridge look of the meat on display. It helps to connect you with the food a bit more. Over all the experience was a good one. Thank you MUCCA & it's staff for a great night out.
We really enjoyed our experience at Mucca . The staff is friendly & the food & wine were delicious .
We would definitely come back when we visit Montreal again
We absolutely loved our experience at Mucca! The menu is set up really well to share or not. We chose to share & we were all happy we did, as we got to take more of their delicious menu items. My husband isn't usually a fan of sharing, but truly enjoyed it here! The wine selection, was unusual, but the waitress guided us through it & we were very happy with the wine chosen. Lastly, the service was impeccable - (not always the case these days, so it was an added bonus to an already fun evening.) I will go back again with more friends. It's a great evening out.
Excellent service, better food, & incredible wine. Thank you for taking care of us as we celebrated such a special evening, it was a night I will never forget & certainly hope to visit you again soon. Five stars is not enough! Thank you!!
