Ottavio is frequently praised for tasty flavors across many dishes, with pizza noted for a crisp crust and quality toppings. Some mains are described as underseasoned and sauces too thin. The ambiance is warm and cozy with a refined touch, and can feel lively or even noisy when busy. Service is consistently highlighted as attentive, friendly and efficient, and the option to bring your own wine is appreciated. A strong gluten free program and an allergen friendly menu reassure diners with celiac concerns, and portions are generous. Dishes like lasagna, seafood pasta and mussels receive high praise, as do desserts. Prices are sometimes described as high but many feel the value matches the quality and portions. Overall Ottavio offers a dependable Italian dining experience suitable for families, groups and casual meals and is often considered a favorite.
We had a wonderful evening. We so appreciate having a safe restaurant to go to for the celiac members of our family. The food is delicious! I just wish that they had a location in downtown Montreal or the NDG area of the city.
Un bel accueil malgré tout mais la jeune fille avait les yeux très fatigué & pas joyeux. A comparer du serveur d'eau & du serveur à la table très bon service. La nourriture était excellente. Je vais y retourner c'est certain.
As always, Ottavio was accommodating. Went there for a lunch with colleagues. The lunch menu was a huge success, keeping us within budget, but still managing to feed us extremely well. A few of us took home leftovers, which goes to show how good the portions are. Everyone enjoyed their meals !
Hi, I'm celiac & it makes it quite difficult to go out for dinner with friends. However, with restrictions now lifted, we invited friends to Ottavio's last week. They are not celiac & have no gluten intolerance. They have never been to Ottavio's. They were impressed at how Ottavio treated them as well as how I was treated. So careful with everything... even the glass of water. We all enjoyed our food especially me! Fries & Pizza with no worries. What more could I ask for? The waiter was very kind & efficient! I could not tell if she was smiling because she was wearing a mask but it certainly sounded like she was. Thank you for being a great hostess & thank you for allowing us to have an evening without worries :)
We really enjoyed the atmosphere & food. As a family of 5 with two vegans in the group this restaurant was perfect for meeting our diverse dietary needs. This was our first visit & we will definitely go back. Service was good also.
