Restaurant Italien de quartier, situé au coeur de la Petite-Italie de Montréal. Menu créatif et changeant selon les arrivages du marché, focalisé sur les viandes vieillies de provenance local et responsable. Vins natures soigneusement selectionnés.
Nos Spécialités
Cuisine italienne, viandes, boeuf canadien (âgé sur place), pâtes, pains et desserts maison et menu dégustation.
Mucca se distingue comme une adresse locale chaleureuse où les plats privilégient le fait maison et les produits locaux. Les viandes vieillies en interne et les pâtes artisanales, les desserts maison et les glaces rafraîchissantes offrent une expérience gourmande et authentique. Le cadre est intime et l'ambiance conviviale, idéale pour un dîner entre amis ou une soirée en tête-à-tête, et le service est attentif et personnalisé avec de bons conseils sur les vins. La carte évolue régulièrement avec des plats créatifs et des accompagnements soignés, et les avis convergent sur la qualité des steaks et des pâtes. Certains retours mentionnent une salle parfois bruyante et des portions ou des choix qui ne conviennent pas à tout le monde, mais l'esprit et la constance de Mucca restent remarquables.
Went with a large group & had to take the tasting menu.
Pros: food was really good & high quality. Beautiful restaurant.
Cons: literally splitting hairs so that everyone got to try the dishes. A fork's worth of pasta. A half spoon of risotto..couple pieces of meat. Dessert somehow even more so, as they brought out even less at that stage. cutting a slice of chocolate salami in to tiny little pieces was embarrassing. Not everyone got to sample the tiramisu. First experience with a tasting menu where they were literal. You just get to TASTE it. Better off charging more & making sure your clients leave satisfied. Disappointing.
Mucca is hands-down my favorite restaurant in Little Italy. The moment you step inside, you're welcomed by a warm, intimate atmosphere & a friendly, attentive staff that instantly makes you feel like part of the family. One of the things I love most about Mucca is their commitment to using only fresh, seasonal ingredients. Their menu changes a little weekly, so there's always something new & exciting to try. Every bite is a testament to the quality & care they put into their food. A highlight for me is their house-made ice cream-it's absolutely divine & the perfect way to finish any meal. For the best experience, I highly recommend choosing the tasting menu. It's the perfect way to explore a variety of their standout dishes. Mucca is the perfect spot for any occasion, & it's a restaurant I can't recommend enough. It's a true gem in Little Italy!

First time at this restaurant. We had the tasting menu & the food was fantastic, especially the rib steak, carpaccio & desserts. Service was very attentive & the pacing of food was perfect 👌. Would definitely return as this was a memorable experience!
We will be talking about our dinner at Mucca for a long time! Culinary experience was perfectly executed & the service was top notch. We thoroughly enjoyed the Chef's Tasting Menu & the Bordeaux. Mucca easily became one of my favorite restaurants! If you are in the area & are looking for a special treat, this is your place!
Was really excited to like the place, has been on my list for a while. Good vibe on coming in, nice waiter, but the owner firmly (but politely) refused a pretty easy ask to let 3/5 of us order the tasting menu, & order a la carte for our vegetarian & pregnant friends. She admitted that there was no problem for 3 people to order a tasting menu "but you booked for 5, so you can't sneak it that way." Her restaurant, her rules... but you don't get service points for arbitrarily limiting customers from what they want. We followed the owner's recommendations on ordering, but 4/5 of us left quite hungry, even after adding an extra dish. The appetizers were very good: original & sizeable zucchini flowers, a nice salad, textbook burrata. The steaks were both well cooked but heavily over-peppered; & the pastas the waiter recommended we double up on were totally bland. We left most of them, & we mentioned to the owner that this dish wasn't terribly good; she said okay but charged us for it. Also okay, fair enough, but again, you don't get service points for that. The cocktails were solid, the two bottles of wine were both good - we got solid advice there. Again - just too bad we left with a bad taste in our mouth. Could have easily been a great night. We went next door for dessert.
What a gem 👌🏻 We were a party of 6 & had the tasting menu, which essentially is little bit of the whole menu. Everything was fantastic! Delicious food - Great service & excellent wine selection. Can't wait to go back!
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.

If I could give 6 stars I would! Been a couple times to this restaurant & I normally never take the time to write reviews but these folks more than deserve one. The quality of their ingredients, the service, the menu, all of it. I recommend doing the tasting menu!
What an amazing little gem Mucca is. Everything was perfect. The restaurant is beautifully, cozy & a great ambiance. We were welcomed/served by the owner Karine who is such a genuine & beautiful person. Made us feel like she was receiving us in her home. & the food… OMG too die for. We took the tasting menu.. I highly recommend.
Nice date night spot in Little Italy. Menus are seasonal & change every couple of weeks based on available ingredients. Before going, check their menu online to see what they’re offering.
My partner & I ordered the tasting menu at 78pp which gave you a smattering of items available on their menu that day, including two appetizers, one pasta, one meat, & two desserts. Their appetizers (green bean salad + beef carpaccio) & pasta (white cream tube pasta) was absolutely amazing as well as the sides that came with the meat (mashed potato’s & chard), although parts of the meat came out either a bit chewy, a bit tough, or the rosemary overpowered the dry age.
While portion sizes were smaller than if you were to order the dishes separately, we preferred this option because the amount of food that came out was just right. (If you care more about the volume, would maybe recommend ordering the foods separately)
All in all this was a very solid meal. Food came out quickly & service was excellent & friendly! (Keep in mind we came a bit on the earlier side. I can imagine when it gets busy, it may be hard for the 1-2 people in the front to be at your every beck & call. Temper expectations & focus on enjoying your food!)
Last Thursday, my client & I decided to dine at this establishment hoping for a relaxed & enjoyable evening. We walked in at about 8:30 pm & were surprised to find the restaurant almost desserted with only three other tables occupied. Little did we know, our anticipation was soon to be marred by a series of disappointing events & a Grinch (the owner). Although the food quality was commendable, our overall experience was overwhelmingly tarnished by the shockingly poor service of the owner. We were left waiting for nearly 30 minutes before our orders were taken, which was surprising given the sparse crowd. We opted for the tasting menu - the most premium offering on their menu - leading to a clutter of dishes on our diminutive table. In an attempt to create a bit more space & since the owner wasn't in the front for the last 10 mins, we decided to combine our table with an adjacent one. We thought it a harmless act, aimed at making our meal more comfortable without causing any inconvenience. But we were taken aback when the owner, Karine, confronted us, 10 mins later, expressing extreme displeasure at our initiative. Despite our immediate apologies & explanation for our actions, she continued to berate us. Hoping to salvage the situation, we decided to persist, putting our faith in the restaurant's culinary reputation. But to our dismay, Karine later moved the extra table without a word of explanation. When we courteously requested her to let us use the extra table given the lack of customers & the amount of dishes ordered, she vehemently & disrespectfully refused, stating her reluctance to encourage customers to use more space than designated. It was at this point that we decided to leave. The condescending attitude of the management completely extinguished our appetite. We paid for the dishes we had been served & departed, vowing never to return. It's regrettable that our experience was so negative, & perhaps provides some insight as to why the restaurant was nearly empty on a Thursday night. The most regrettable aspect of this encounter is that it wasn't my first visit to this restaurant. Just three weeks prior, I had brought a group of six friends & we had collectively spent $1000. What's more, the friends I brought along had a personal connection to the owner through a family member, who was a regular there. I was anticipating this connection would pave the way for a warm & friendly rapport, & was considering this place for frequent get-togethers. Unfortunately, the distressing episode has quashed such hopes. The unfortunate truth is that the restaurant has not just lost a potential repeat customer, but also the prospect of consistent business brought by a wider circle of acquaintances. An establishment's success isn't only about the quality of food, but equally about the hospitality & service extended to customers. The management should understand this before it's too late, for no restaurant can thrive on good food alone.

We were a group of 8 taking the chef's tasting menu & it did not disappoint. Great place, world class plates; the lobster pasta & porterhouse steak were my personal favorites. I will be going back.
I really love this place. I had gone with 3 other friends & when we ordered the tasting menu, we got to try everything on the menu which was incredible. If you just go as 2 people, they won't give you everything (which is understandable) but they didn't ask which things you'd prefer, so the 2 appetizers we got were not very good. Service is great as always.
We visited MUCCA Restaurant & tried their tasting menu, which was great. The tasting menu is served as shared dishes, & you get to try multiple dishes. The steaks are cooked to perfection & the staff are extremely friendly & knowledgable. Would recommend.

There is a reason why the reviews have nothing less than a 5 star rating!! It is not often I feel the need to review, but it has been quite a while since I have been floored by the overall experience from a restaurant. The tasting menu is an absolute must; you truly get your money's worth. Being a group of 5 we were treated to a sampling of almost everything on their menu & everything was simply amazing. The burrata with the ground cherry jam was "lick your plate" that good. The beef tartare was fresh & better with each bite. The homemade pasta choices were each innovative & delectable... we needed to ask for more bread to scoop up all the sauce! Next came the 3 choices of meat & the moooo in Mucca really showed itself. The platters of meat were out of this world delicious & cooked to perfection. Even the side of greens & mashed potatoes were simply devine infused with garlic & herbs. At this point we were stuffed to the rim & couldn't imagine dessert being even better. The lemon tiramisu was absolutely everything (& this coming from someone who usually doesn't like citrus desserts & knows a good tiramisu when she sees one). The gelato flavours were apple pie & mojito reincarnated. & the ricotta cheesecake was delicate & so fluffy. If the food wasn't enough, the service & ambience were also top notch quality. After every serving, all cutlery & plates were replaced & our glasses were never emptied.. the attention to detail did not go unnoticed; these people know how to deliver an experience. The music they had going was every best song I wanted to hear & I really need their playlist now! The owner was a true delight & you can tell that this is her passion; serving & doing food exceptionally well without it being pretentious. We will definitely be back!
I read the reviews but didn't ‘get' them until I sampled the food here for myself. We had the tasting menu & what can I say, the trust in the chef is 1000% warranted! Everything was sooooo good but the evening belonged to the porterhouse steak, done to medium rare perfection. The staff were attentive & always checking up on us, such great & genuine service. If they were open tomorrow, I would be back but they close on Sundays - Tuesdays. I guess genius needs longer rest to recharge! Love it, will be back, unforgettable!
Second time going to Mucca & i strongly recommend the tasting menu. I've gotten it both times & It changes with what's in season so it's always a nice surprise to try new things. Great staff, great food & great energy.
Our party of six had the shared tasting menu - wondefully prepared & plentiful. Karine the owner recommended the wines & has a good knowledge of the local produce & meats they serve. We love places like this with daily or weekly menus using seasonal produce.
