Unique flavors that are all delicious. The menu items sound like they rotate often, I've only been here once but would come back in a heart beat. Had a goat cheese filled pasta with a creamy semi sweet & semi spicy sauce, wrapped in a candy shake that were amazing, the beef main dish with aubergine was cooked perfectly & paired together so well.
The only thing I didn't enjoy was the dessert, I can't recommend corn gelato but other options might be better, however the other food was so good it doesn't even matter.
This place was recommended to us by family. I must say it did not disappoint. The focaccia was good, 4$ extra for the special olive oil from italy the waiter tried to take it away during the meal.. i told him calmly put the olive oil back on the table before i bite ur fgn hand off. Tortelini with ricotta was rlly good the sweetness of the corn (which is in season) was a good counter to the dish & nice twist. Homemade pasta great, the porc was unbelievable, so was the fish. & the beef tartare ming forget abaaaat it 10/10. One thing that pissed me off tho it that it was 6pm with punk weird alternative music blasting hello ur an italian restaurant put some
Vivaldi or smtg & put the sound down when we ask… you wanna know why?? It is out of respect… Salute tommy ! Dont go getting too big on me
I wish I could give it 5 stars. The service was friendly & attentive. The food was delicious & fresh. But unfortunately the portions were surprisingly small (not even joking, only 5 pieces of pasta in a pasta dish). Would I go back? Probably. But I wouldn't come with a big appetitex
had the most amazing dining experience tonight. the tomato appetizer with pepperoncini oil paired with the tomatini cocktail was chefs kiss. the star of the show was the corn pasta…insane. delicious. to top it all off the bartender Ben was so thorough in explaining the menu & really made our dining experience seamless & fun. additionally the manager Lexi was so so kind & welcoming. will definitely be back one day!!
This place was an absolute delight from start to finish. I can't recommend enough. Go here!! We called for a table & they weren't able to get us in until later, which didn't quite work for us with a baby, & then they actually called us back a few minutes later to let us know they were able to accommodate us, which I thought was very professional & courteous. The excellent service continued throughout dinner with thoughtful wine recommendations & attention to my mother's allergies. The food was equally excellent. We had the mortadella, focaccia, & tuna carpaccio - I could've eaten a dozen plates of each. We each had a different pasta dish & you could tell that the pasta was made in house & the ingredients were fresh & well thought-out. Simple ingredients done beautifully. I am from out of town & would make plans to come back, for sure.
Gaslighting during, & after the meal. Never coming back.
We were very disappointed after our most recent visit. After coming here in the past, & loving it, we had high expectations.
To start, Service was very slow. There's some understanding when things take long when folks are busy, but for a 8:30 reservation we didn't order any food a little after 9:30pm.
After only being served drinks for that first hour plus, we were hungry. We ordered bread. It never came.
Salad came first, dropped & walked away.
I took 2 bites & the look on my face prompted my wife to ask me what was wrong.
Rotting greens was wrong. The arugula/spinach was rotting in plain view, & on my tounge. You know that taste of bitter greens, it tastes kinda slimy? Ugh. My wife immediately flagged the server down. They went to talk to the kitchen. Coming back, the server offered us a new dish,'maybe one that has less dressing' completely ignoring the issue in front of everyone & playing it like this was a preference thing, or our fault, as opposed to serving us inedible food & acknowledging that. I know right from there that we were going to have a bad time because when a restaurant messes up, & they blame you? It's like you're stuck in quicksand, not to recover. That exactly happened as the meal got worse. Then came the pastas, this was supposed to redeem everything.
It didn't.
The tagliatelle was cut in what seemed 5 different sizes, looked like pasta scraps. Looking beyond that the mushrooms were gritty & pretty dirty. Not a great taste again. Not really seasoned, just oil & dirt. The dish looked like a rush job, an after thought for a restaurant that prides itself on pasta. There was also the ravioli, which was also rushed as some of the pasta was undercooked. It was hard, & crunchy. Again, not a good mouth feel experience. My wife flagged the server down again, & we were dismissed again, they said'our pastas are generally cooked that way'
Undercooked? Yikes.
I'm not done yet, then came the beef. Preparation continued to be an issue as it was so tough we couldn't eat it all. Chew chew fest.
We had half a plate of food untouched & the server came to say,'I'm all done for the night, bye.'
He knew we were disappointed left & right, dismissed us as it being our problem, & then bailed. New server didn't come until he was forced to clear our half eaten plate. No dessert was offered, & we never got that bread...
Needless to say I was excited to come back, & now we will never come back. I was also excited about the other restaurants, which we will never go to either. After $100+ per person, we left the restaurant still hungry :(
We've sent dozens of people to Nora Gray over the years, & that will cease as well. Don't go, there's so many other places in Montreal that won't gaslight you when they mess up. Or just, won't mess up this way in the first place.
We sent a email to avoid a public negative review.
They said they'unfortunately don't remember it that way.'
More gaslighting & deflecting the problem.
Don't worry, I'll make sure you're reminded. This review is a reminder of our experience, since you all seemed to have forgotten so quickly.
Really enjoyed my experience at Nora Gray. The foglie d'ulivo, pesto de roquette, olives taggiasche was light, fresh, & easy to enjoy. The arugula pesto & olives worked very well together & gave the pasta a lot of flavor without feeling heavy.
The boeuf de la ferme d'Orée 8oz was also very good. The beef was dry-aged for five weeks & had a rich flavor. It was cooked perfectly for our taste, although they didn't ask how we wanted it cooked. The sauce on the steak was excellent & brought everything together.
Service was good overall & our server was knowledgeable & helpful. The only downside was that the restaurant is very strict with the menu. We asked to add a few drops of balsamic to the olive oil & they said no but the olive oil itself was great.
This was our 2nd visit & it was very different. It was an amazing eating experience the first time in 2025.
The service & atmosphere were top notch, although folks should know it gets very loud once the restaurant fills. But the food was disappointing as it was uneven. Price point is quite high, but the portion sizes are very small. Some dishes amazing, a few only okay/mid.
The shocker was we ordered a special crab pasta where the tagliatelle was under cooked - hard in the middle still! When we sent it back, the chef was unhappy & told the server'it was fine'. Instead of making us a new dish, she cooked it a SECOND time & it was brought back!!! I felt bad for the server (who was amazing) as I could tell she was embarrassed it had not been refired. Unacceptable & we likely won't return now.
