Had a lovely early dinner here on a Saturday before a Canadiens game at the nearby Bell Centre. I sat at the bar & was treated to excellent service by Arianne, who masterfully guided me through the menu & the wines on offer by the glass. Very eclectic crowd including hockey fans & staff who had the night off but still brought their friends for the food, & the place was hopping very quickly after opening. I wouldn't be surprised if regulars come here just for the appetisers - the mackerel was prepared beautifully. So much flavour from such a simple preparation, & not easy to get it that moist & delicious. I'd return just to have that dish! Arianne suggested two appetiser size pasta dishes. The pasta is made in-house, & really stands out in a city with good Italian food. I tried the rotolo, which was spinach rolled in a pasta sheet, with a perfect tomato sauce. The spaghetti alla chitarra was divine - both dishes paired perfectly with the Tuscan Sangiovese red that was recommended. A strong espresso worked beautifully for the affogato to finish off a very good meal. Will definitely visit again!View more
What an amazing experience we had at this hidden gem! The restaurant was small & intimate & we sat at the bar. Our primary server/bartender was Lexi, & she was a wealth of knowledge about the menu & all drink options, & she (& the rest of the team) made a great experience even more special. We had 4-5 plates, each of which was unique & special, but complimented the other. It was such an amazing dining experience from the staff to the bar to the kitchen! Absolutely recommend to anyone looking for an upscale dining experience with a warm & inviting atmosphere.View more
Shelby & Lexi (bartender) were exceptional. All staff were kind & personable. The food (we asked the chef to pick favourites) was wonderful. I really liked the tomato spinach pasta & beef with onions. The Japanese turnip was fun to try! Overall, highly recommend. We had a wonderful time sitting at the bar, chatting with staff!View more
Salad was good, but olive oil was not. Fish did not have any taste. Also, end seat at the bar is not a seat, theres no place for your legs, they really should not offer it.View more
Went here on a whim a few weeks ago & was blown away by the service & food. A spot was saved for me at the bar after calling ahead last minute & the bartender did a great job setting me up through the menu. Fantastic food & wonderful atmosphere. Can't wait to go back next time I'm in town.View more
This place is great, the food especially the past is superbe. We ate at the bar & the bartender was very nice. My friend had a cocktail 🍹 she really enjoyed. We shared a couple very good & fresh appetizers & then both had incredible pasta. Granted at 40$ for a plate of pasta 🍝 it better be incredible & it didn't disappoint 🤤. Finding parking around this spot is absolutely hell do so I suggestView more
WoW quelle belle experience! Nous y sommes allés en amoureux, au comptoir-bar. Notre serveuse/barmaid a été agréable, souriante, efficace. Nos entrées & nos plats principaux nous ont tous charmés. Les pâtes faites maison sont délicieuses. Ambiance chaleureuse, douce. Une soirée parfaite !View more
My favorite restaurant in town ! The food is AMAZING, the service is perfect & the atmosphere is really nice. The spots at the bar are really nice for 2 peopleView more
Dinner was at the bar served by Simon. The food was lovely & I like the option of half portion pasta as we are not big eaters. Pasta was our choice & it was fantastic - agnolotti & spaghetti. The focaccia was really good as was the cannoli dessert! Dinner here is comfortable & inviting like you were eating at a friends place! Finally a word about Simon. We left our wine dinner pairing to him & he selected well & when I spilled my wine while trying my partners pasta he immediately cleaned up & replaced my spilled wine no charge. Class all the way!View more
