This was a recommendation by a family member & honestly did not disappoint! Service was great, Karine was super helpful with our choices, super friendly staff as well! The food did not disappoint. Great local joint using great quality & local products. Did not disappoint & will be back for sure!
This restaurant is overhyped. Not sure why so many people speak so highly about it, I really felt like the experience was nothing out of the ordinary. My friends wanted to come here for steak & I turned them around after trying this place. I definitely do not think this is one of the top places for steak. The service is decent, but the food is really not the best in Montreal. Portions are small, & it is expensive, not the greatest. Took a very very long time to get the bill(45mins after asking 3 times)
What a great experience! This food took me back to my Italian roots, real authentic. I highly recommend this restaurant, they also have a great variety of grappa's that you don't usually find in restaurants in Montreal.
Morgane our waitress was fabulous, we also got to chat with the owner Karine, also lovely! Thank you for the wonderful experience !
Quelle belle expérience ! L'entrée de polenta & champignons était excellente & que dire des pâtes au ragù de canard, divines ! Service très chaleureux & convivial de Karine, la propriétaire ! Nous allons y retourner c'est certain.
Très TRÈS bruyant.
Le restaurant est très petit & il est rempli à pleine capacité donc nous sommes tous cordés comme des sardines.
Nous avons trouvé l'expérience, dans l'ensemble, assez désagréable & bien que la nourriture était bonne nous ne l'avons pas trouvé exceptionnelle.
Le carpaccio en entrée était difficile à couper & à mâcher car trop de nerfs, on avait l'impression de mâcher de la gomme.
Les pâtes (rigatonis) auraient gagnées à cuire une ou deux minutes de plus & n'étaient pas très goûteuses.
Le steak n'était pas aussi tendre que celui que je me fais à la maison pour la même coupe, mais il était bien assaisonné & cuit selon notre demande.
Le prix, tant qu'à moi, n'est pas justifié.
Il n'y a pas de menu papier, il faut le consulter en ligne ou lire sur les lèvres de la serveuse qui tente de nous l'expliquer au travers de tout ce bruit.
Nous n'y retournerons certainement PAS, désolé.
Brought a friend from NYC here who loved italian & wow did it not disappoint!
She spent a week in Montreal & she said this place was the highlight & the only authentic & high quality italian restaurant she had that was anything close to what she had back home.
I myself love Mucca because of it's artisanal dishes & high quality food. The atmosphere is cozy & welcoming & the staff are exceptional
• Food was deceiving. I ordered pasta, & even though the menu changes every so often, I don't think it would matter much. The pasta itself was cold, albeit homemade. The whole plate in itself was lacking in flavours. My date ordered the same & she did not finish her plate. I've ordered a citrus tiramisu, & at least we finished on a good note. The white wine we ordered was mid, for ±$75, I expected better. [⭐⭐]
• The service had nice attention. Our wine cups & water glasses were never empty. I just wished the server would be more into wine recommendation based on what we ordered. [⭐⭐⭐⭐]
• Atmosphere is great, not spectacular. Tables can be close to each other, so for a private time it ain't the best (can be quite loud, need a few sips of alcohol to help you focus better). [⭐⭐⭐]
