This quaint local Ste-Dorothée spot is one of the best Italian restaurants I have eaten at outside of Italy!! Don't miss to come & see them as you won't be disappointed in their selection, quality & reasonable pricing!! Buon appetito!! Dai Andiamo!!!
La lasagne y est inoubliable & on se régale de chaque bouchée . L'hôtesse propriétaire affiche toujours un sourire chaleureux en nous donnant un service irréprochable. Ce n'était pas notre première visite & ce ne sera pas notre dernière.
Endroit à revisiter pour son très bon rapport qualité prix/prix, resto familial dans sa façon de faire. Minimaliste pour le décor mais l'idée de l'Italie transpire dans l'ambiance. Un p'tit clin d' oeil pour les fleurs de zucchini & la simplicité de la pizza….on y retourne.
Restaurant de quartier correct, nourriture italienne intéressante, mais service, temps d'attente & considération aléatoire. Prix élevés. Notre expérience fut correcte.

I came here with my Italian partner & a friend expecting nothing & we all were pleasantly surprised with the quality of the food, it's not often that you find real carbonara made the Roman way, let alone a good tiramisu that's not too soggy in Montreal & the nearby areas. I've read the reviews as well & if you think the food is not good, I'm sorry but you should rethink your whole approach to Italian cuisine, maybe you like American-Italian style only.
Wonderful restaurant. Finally found a delicious authentic Italian Restaurant. I took the osso buco & it was one of the best I've ever had. The tiramisu was great as well.Definitely recommend this place.
Best white mortadella & pistachio pizza EVER! The crust is thin airy & crispy! Absolute perfection. Service is very kind. The Italian music on their playlist is delightful. This is our second tume here & we will come often!

Notre mariage a été simplement parfait grâce à ce restaurant. Les plats étaient délicieux, en abondance & le prix très abordable. Mais le plus important, c'était l'accueil chaleureux du personnel. Nous sommes tous partis avec des plats pour emporter, tellement les assiettes étaient généreuses. Le resto est propre, lumineux & accueillant. Merci infiniment pour la magnifique soirée! On espère y revenir bientôt.
First of many times coming here. One of the most authentic Italian restaurants when it comes to the two of the 4 Roman pastas available. I personally prefer Amatriciana over Carbonara but both are excellent options. Using just guanciale & pecorino to season the dish is always a plus in my book though it may be a tad salty for some so you may want to add some black pepper. Food may take time to come out but it comes out freshly made so worth the wait in my opinion(15-20 mins).
Pizza was napoletana-style pizza. Thin crust, soft on the top with a crunchy crust & undercarriage. 4 formaggi was good. Will go for the margherita next time.
The tiramisu was excellent as well. Creamy, fluffy & light. Not overly coffee flavoured.
