Mundo Trattoria was born from a shared dream between two families - and today, it’s carried on by lifelong friends Johnny and Julian, whose fathers originally opened the restaurant together. Rooted in tradition and fueled by passion, they’ve kept the essence of a true Italian trattoria alive right here in Kirkland.
From fresh handmade pastas to tender veal and seasonal seafood, each dish reflects the flavors of Italy and the care that comes with being family-owned. With over 10 years of service and four decades of Italian culinary tradition, Mundo Trattoria is more than a place to eat - it’s a place to belong.
Reviews collectively highlight Mundo Trattoria as a warmly inviting Italian spot with consistently excellent food, attentive service, and a vibrant atmosphere that suits celebrations and casual evenings alike. Guests praise generous portions, flavorful dishes from beef cheeks to tagliatelle and tiramisu, and a well curated wine list, with many noting that the dining room feels welcoming and comfortable even when busy. The restaurant's live entertainment on Fridays and its willingness to accommodate special requests contribute to memorable experiences, while some comments mention a quieter or dimmer dining room and occasional slower service during large gatherings. Overall, the place comes across as a dependable favorite in the West Island for friends and families seeking hearty, well prepared Italian fare and friendly hospitality.
Second time there & one of my new favorite places. Everything is great, service, atmosphere, food is authentic Italian dishes, no unnecessary fluff. Prices are totally justified, neither low nor high, the right value. Wine list is not the trendy phone book size but very nice selection.
Hands down this is My wife & I favorite Italian restaurant! Every dish is made tailored to the guest liking. Matthew has to take the credit for the amazing customer satisfactory! We love the dishes & amazing hospitality I highly recommend you stop by & try it out!
Singer was too loud...we were unable to converse comfortably.
Red wine was too cold.
Garlic bread was not hot.
No followup after service.
The gravy on the beef cheeks was very salty.
The calamari was excellent as was the side of garlic spaghetti.
Unfortunately that will be my first & last time at this restaurant.
There are way better restaurants fir way less money!!!

My date had the eggplant parmesan & I the osso buco veal. Her dish came with penne in a tasty tomato sauce & mine with rissoto. We split a Caesar salad. My veal was tender & in a tasty sauce. The food was excellent. Service was friendly & efficient. We sat in a corner table which was not very spacious. It was odd because it was 7:30 & there were a lot of better tables available. The big problem was the lack of lighting that made it very difficult to read the menu. The tiny dim table lamp is inadequate. The bill before tax & tip was $103. Finding the restaurant was challenging as it is around the corner & not immediately visible.
Absolutely love this place!
I used to live in Anjou & would gladly make the trip just to pick up their food-now that I've moved to Saint-Lazare, I still keep coming back!
I've also used their catering service & was beyond happy with the results. Everything was delicious & beautifully done.
Stopped by late this afternoon & was served by a young girl who was amazing-super friendly, polite, & courteous. She had a great smile & made the experience even better!
Highly recommend this place for both their food & their service!
Important to take the time to give a review as having a business today is not easy & they deserve it!
Don t know why some people were not satisfied with this restaurant. By far this is one of the best in the west island. This is real food
We had not been for a while & returned last night for our anniversary. The food & the service were truly outstanding. We really enjoyed it. It was a little quiet - mid-summer calm, but it still made for a perfect evening
La climatisation était trop forte malgré le fait que j' avais demandé 2 fois de la baisser. . Suite à mon experience j' ai attrapé un rhume & je me suis mis au lit à 16h pour me réveiller le lendemain matin
Once again the team at Mundo provided an evening of great drinks, delicious food & excellent service. We messed up the number on our group reservation & the restaurant made sure we had everything we needed immediately, nothing was a problem & everything was handled quickly & with great humour.
The best tagliatelle bolognese I've ever had, here or in Italy.
Quality ingredients & excellent service by Johnny. My husband had the pescatore dish & loved the giant shrimp & scallops !
