Les avis sur Pasta Pooks convergent sur ses pates fraiches faites maison et des plats phares comme gnocchis, raviolis et casoncelli mantovani, accompagnés de sauces savoureuses et de desserts remarquables tels que tiramisu et panna cotta; le cadre petit et chaleureux, l ambiance conviviale et le service attentif créent une expérience qui revient souvent comme positive, même lorsque le restaurant est plein. Certains commentaires mentionnent des portions parfois reduites et des prix eleves, ou un niveau de hype qui ne serait pas toujours justifié, et quelques elements comme le take out ou la terrasse peuvent poser des soucis (attentes, bruit, temperature). Pourtant l ensemble des avis met en valeur la qualité des ingredients, la fraicheur des plats et la belle sélection de vins, avec un esprit artisanal et un souci du detail. En somme Pasta Pooks est une adresse incontournable pour les amateurs de pate fraiche dans le quartier, offrant une experience gustative souvent renouvellée et donnant envie de revenir pour essayer d autres plats et les specialites maison.
The food is delicious. Pasta as it would be in a very good trattoria in Italy. What does not work at all is the price, that is outrageous. 55 dollars (with taxtes & tip) for a bowl of ricotta-spinach ravioli & a tiny glass of natural wine, you know the one that looks like pineapple juice & tastes worse. In fact the wine list is insanely priced & utterly hip, as if this was a Michelin-starred joint, run by a dude fom Williamsburg. In fact you just ate at the bar, perched on a stool, & looking at the wall. Avoid the place, save some money & try to visit Bologna instead.
Pâtes somptueuses & authentiques. Gnocchi alla ricotta comme un nuage en bouche. N'hésitez pas à essayer les autres plats comme les entrées, très originales. Beau choix de vins aussi. Pasta Pooks, à découvrir absolument!

This is the pasta restaurant I've been dreaming of & that comes closest to the authentic homemade pasta that I had in Italy. We skipped the appetizers so that we could try all three of the daily pastas: spaghettoni al ragù d'anatra (thicker spaghetti with a ground duck sauce), casoncelli mantovani (pasta stuffed with squash & coated in a brown butter sage sauce), & ricotta gnocchis in a parmesan & pomodoro sauce (they were like little pillows!). Each pasta dish was cooked to perfection with the right texture & the right balance of flavours. I debated reordering the casoncelli mantovani but refrained since I was trying to be responsible!
We finished the meal with the tiramisu, which we agreed was the best we had ever eaten.
Beautiful wine selection & the service was also really great. The atmosphere in the restaurant was really vibrant, maybe a little too loud for our tastes but totally acceptable given the excellent experience overall. The prices were VERY reasonable for the quality of the meal. I can't wait to return.
Pasta Pooks in Montréal is absolutely delicious. The food is first rate & well worth the visit. The space is small, though they are expanding, which will be welcome given how popular it is.
We shared the fried zucchini flower to start, followed by the bean salad, pesto gnocchi, & spinach ricotta ravioli. Every dish was excellent. We sat at the counter , staff was really friendly .We waited about thirty minutes for a spot, but it was absolutely worth it for such outstanding food.
A very casual, small pasta shop that focuses on producing homemade high-quality pasta dishes. It's a nice addition to Montreal's Little Italy neighbourhood. The menu is very limited with only 3-4 pasta choices, & I wasn't able to order the gnocchis for takeout for some reason. But I was able to find a dish I liked, the spinach ricotta ravioli. Which to be honest, was absolutely delicious & quite filling that it literally melts in your mouth! However, in general, I think the portions are on the smaller side because the restaurant seems to be focused on the quality of ingredients. I would go back again since they seem like they switch up their menu every few months, but I was disappointed the outdoor patio wasn't available when I went to the restaurant. Therefore, it might be better to order takeout since the restaurant has limited counter seats & can get quite cramped during the busy hours. I recommend eating at the nearby Little Italy Park, as there are tables available.

Ravioli was a 10/10 - soo good & perfectly filled! You get to actually taste the flavour of the ricotta & spinach filling because there is a generous amount inside. Probably one of the most delicious pasta I've ever had!
Excellent resto! L'entrée de salade de fenouil est excellente & généreuse, & nous avons pris les raviolis Ricotta Épinards qui étaient vraiment bons!
Peu de places assises, mais un petit comptoir qui amène du charme à cette place. On va revenir assurément.
Ps: les portions ne paraissent pas énormes, mais on est plein très rapidement. Parole de bon mangeur 😉
