Ottavio garners broad praise for its flavorful Italian fare and especially for a gluten-free program that feels safe and well managed, with separate utensils, dedicated dishware, and clear attention to avoiding cross contamination that keeps celiacs confident. The food is frequently described as fresh and delicious, with pizza crust highlighted as excellent, arancini and Caesar salad among favorites, and desserts like mini donuts; the option to bring your own wine is a welcome bonus. The ambiance is pleasant and the staff praised for friendliness and knowledge, though some visits mention slow service, uneven attentiveness, or moments of poor coordination, and a few diners found the place loud or the portions not always aligned with the price. For events or groups, the restaurant is viewed as a strong and flexible choice, with thoughtful gluten-free accommodations and menus ranging from simple to refined; overall it is seen as a reliable option for gluten-free diners and pizza lovers, even if experiences can vary.

Revised review: March 2016

We went back, remembering the gluten-free options but this time, the service was not as good as the previous time.
It took forever to get our plates & we went at 5:30pm, when the restaurant was still quiet.
We were with our young son & a 2-hour dinner was not what we had in mind for pizza!
The last straw was when we got charged extra for the gluten-free dessert. It was a raw cake from the company ''Rawsome''…..how can you charge extra for the GF version if the cake is gluten-free to begin with
So I should've asked for the normal version to pay less for the same cake!

We tried it out, looking for gluten-free options (very limited options in Montreal) & we were pleasantly surprised. They really pay attention to every little detail, making sure nothing has been overlooked (separate utensils, G-F bread, even the soap in the washrooms!).
We had a G-F pizza & the mussels which were delicious.
A very special mention to our waiter Jeffrey who was very nice, courteous & attentive.

We'll definitely be back!

This resto is amazing, from the service to the food. My GF has celiac & there not many restaurants that take precautions not only for the ingredients, but for any cross contamination. This is our go to spot for GF Pasta & Pizza. Both the regular & GF menu selections are delicious. The manager, Billy, & all the staff are courteous & always smiling & going the extra step to make your visit the best. Keep up the great work.

The food was really good. We had Poulette mussels, some other mustard mussels & the special pizza. The one that changes every month. This month it was figs, pesto, mozzarella, & honey. The service was a but slow but still good. I also had a creme brûlée it was amazing!
It's just good Italian food... Nothing amazingly special.
I would go back.
