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)
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.
Came with high expectation & left with disappointment (well at least we are full)…the appetizers & pasta are underwhelming, & the steak was ok but still not something worthy to come back. We all found here a bit overhyped. It's good to support the local ingredients but the cooking technique is just…ordinary. Service is good though!
Ate here twice, once recently & the first time a couple of years back.
1. Steak is as good, maybe the best I've ever had. But plating used to be better, & the portion size of the sides used to be larger as well.
2. Dishes other than the steak are just OK. I think they try to make up for the stripped down menu with'carefully thought out' appetizers & pastas, but i really think they'd be better off doing what they do best: keeping things simple.
We had a great dinner at Mucca in Montreal. The atmosphere was warm & welcoming, with a cozy vibe that made us feel right at home. It's located on Rue Saint-Zotique in the charming Little Italy neighborhood, which adds to the overall experience quiet, local, & full of character.
We started with the Fiori di zucca zucchini flowers filled with ricotta. The dish was light, subtly crisp, fresh, & beautifully presented.
For our main course, we ordered the Costata, a 20oz rib steak from Holstein cattle aged for 50 days. It was cooked perfectly medium, just as requested , great flavor, generously portioned.
To finish, we had ice cream served with a crisp waffle tucked in. It was incredibly delicious creamy, rich, & satisfying.
One thing we really appreciated is that Mucca makes many of its recipes fresh in-house including the bread, which was warm & delicious. That extra care in preparation really shows in the quality of service & food. The person who served us was friendly, attentive, & informative. We had different appetites & preferences, & they took the time to check in, understand what we were looking for, & recommend the most fitting dish for the evening. Their suggestion was spot-on, & we fully enjoyed it.
We also had the chance to speak with the chef / the owner , lovely people. They've started Mucca with a mission: to keep the menu simple, authentic, uncompromising in quality.
Everything we tasted was top-notch, & the pricing was very good for the quality offered. We'll definitely be coming back to try more of their signature ice cream & the Tomahawk steak. 👍🎊
In town for an event, & our group of 9 randomly decided to try Mucca since it was a few blocks away.
Great decision! We were lucky to snag a few tables for the entire group & the Owner served us directly & essentially helped us customize a meal to suit our party size & preferences. She was so engaging & helpful explaining her farm to table approach.
We literally got 1 of everything on the menu! Ribeye, tbone, & tomahawk, Tagliatelle pasta, & charcuterie board. Steaks cooked to perfection medium rare.
Had good selection of local wines. Finished if off with few desserts. The Salame Cioccolato was surprisingly good! Literally looks like a thick slab of salame but rich chocolatey firm mousse. So good.
Loved the atmosphere & how engaging & helpful the owner was even when we had questions about montreal in general.
You Must try!
Absolutely incredible experience at Mucca!
This Italian steakhouse completely exceeded my expectations. The food was absolutely amazing - every bite was bursting with flavor & clearly made with high-quality ingredients. The steak was perfectly cooked & paired beautifully with traditional Italian sides. The atmosphere was warm & inviting, & the service was top-notch. I had so much fun & left feeling full, happy, & already thinking about my next visit. Highly recommend Mucca if you're looking for a memorable dining experience!
Unique burrata & amazing steaks. Cooked to perfection 10/10. Service was on point. The owner Karine was extremely friendly & nice to chat with. Will definitely be back :)
A gem in Little Italy: Bold, seasonal, delicious food on a regularly changing menu, with exceptional service.
The menu is inspired, from the creative small plates (anchovy ricotta! Haskap compote!), the tender housemade pastas, & the incredible desserts (the lemon tiramisu & housemade gelatos are a must). Every time I visit, the menu is different, but the quality & inspiration remains consistent.
Then there's the beef, where this small restaurant in Little Italy is one of the few in Montreal to sell steaks by breed as well as cut (not to mention that they're dry-aged in house). The steaks are cooked to perfection, tender, & deeply flavourful.
Karine is a ray of sunshine, running front of house, drinks, & who I've run into buying crates of sea urchin at the Jean-Talon Market.
They manage to do it all. I cannot recommend Mucca more.

After 3 years of dining here, Mucca remains my go-to when people ask me to recommend:
-'the best steak & a wine list to match'
-'the best pasta'
-'a cute spot for date night'
-'somewhere to take my parents for their birthday where it should feel fancy without being stodgy & make them feel special'
-'dinner with a few coworkers'
