After a one year absence from restaurants it felt real good to be back. There were a few new items on the menu which my wife & I truly enjoyed. One thing missing from the menu & hope it gets added soon would be dairy free coffee creamer.
La nourriture est correct mais il y avait un manque flagrant de personnel. Un seul serveur pour toute la salle (& un gérant qui foutait absolument rien...il aurait pu / du aider). Ils ont un special moules à volonté les lundi, mardi, mercredi mais apres plus de 30 minutes d'attente, nous avons annulé la commande & demandé l'addition. C'est un des rares restos avec menu sans gluten, je vais sans doute y retourner mais appeler avant pour vérifier s'ils ont le personnel suffisant en salle
My favourite family-friendly Italian restaurant in this neighbourhood! The place is always clean & the staff is always friendly. I craved their freshly prepared fried calamari during the lockdown & it did not disappoint me! Seafood linguini was divine! The scallops & mussels were perfectly prepared (not overcooked & soft). Everything was excellent. & I managed not to blow my diet plan (Hint: I recommend sharing entrées & bring some pasta home ;-)).
We had a reservation at 19h30 Friday.
Our server named Nicholas was very friendly & polite. He served us "unlimited" bread while waiting on our main dish.
Our dishes were amazing ! Our dessert (creme brulee & moist cake) was served with 5 teaspoons to accommodate all of us.
My third visit ( Marcel Laurin) location & it never fail.
Always a pleasure.
Thank you Ottavio!
Excellent service
Bon choix de mets variés
Seul bémol: Acoustique très désagréable.... plafonds très hauts & le son résonne trop fort.
Cercle vicieux.... les invités parlent de plus en plus fort!
Toujours un réel plaisir d'aller manger chez Ottavio!
La nourriture est excellente & les p'tits beignets servis en dessert sont incontournables!
Service excellent également & les normes COVID sont très bien appliquées alors nul besoin de s'inquiéter!
Beautiful evening.
Got there & was extremely well received.
We were presented to our table & sat down.
The young waiter was perfect..very polite & respectful.
But then again, we( myself & my date) we know it's not easy being a waiter & we made him feel comfortable & let him know that he won't have any problems with us. We're here for a nice & good time.
That being said....escargot was delicious, salmon tatar was amazing & the tortellini gigi was to perfection.
Great night.
