Review Summary

Pasticceria Alati-Caserta is widely praised for authentic Italian pastries, with cannoli featuring crisp shells and creamy filling, classic sfogliatelle, tiramisu and a broad range of cakes and cookies that taste fresh and true to traditional Naples-inspired pastry making. The shop is often called a must-visit and a Montreal classic, with friendly, attentive staff and a charming, open bakery feel, though a few reviews point to occasional inconsistent service and high prices. Even on busy weekends, the selection and quality are described as worth the wait, and many customers celebrate the variety of sweets and the option to try cakes by the slice. Some items have drawn criticism, such as certain cannoli fillings, zeppole or butter-cream versions, with a handful finding some sweets overly sweet or not up to expectations. Overall, the pastries, from cannoli to tiramisu and eclairs, are seen as standout and the place remains a landmark for authentic Italian desserts in Little Italy.

Je pense que c'est la cinquième fois que je visite cet endroit. C'est définitivement une des meilleures pâtisseries italiennes que l'on peut trouver à Montréal. Sérieusement, à chaque visite, je trouve quelque chose de délicieux. Il y a des gâteaux à la mangue, au fruit de la passion, aux baies sauvages, & bien d'autres variétés. Je vous conseille vivement de visiter cet endroit pour découvrir tout ce qu'ils offrent, que ce soient des portions individuelles ou des gâteaux de taille moyenne & grande. Ils offrent toutes les options & ont maintenu leurs prix malgré l'inflation, ce qui est très honnête. Photo de gâteau à ajouter.

Did not realize the frutti di bosco cake has rum (or whatever alcohol in it) to make the cake. We couldnt even start eating the cake since we do not drink alcohol at all.

J'ai commandé un tiramisu, délicieux! La travailleuse m'a parlé de l'histoire du restaurant ce qui m'a fait découvrir plein de nouveaux secrets sur la Petite Italie. Service impeccable, ambiance chaleureuse & nourriture délicieuse.

C'est tout simplement incroyable ! D'abord on regarde, ensuite on a du mal à choisir... Au final on regrette rien. C'est excellent ! Mais il faut revenir, il y a tellement de belles & bonnes choses... Pour les yeux, pour les papilles !!

Original cannoli was so deliciuos! If I could I would buy cakes & all desserts because they look really deliciuos. We have tried nut cannoli with pistachio cream it was sweet & really tasty, more to sweet side. Thank you & wish you good luck. I will come back again. No tables to sit inside, but you can enjoy cannoli in fresh air ☀️

DO NOT get mini-cannolis (unless you already tried & liked them!). The mini cannolis are not filled with mascarpone & taste like Vaseline. The original cannolis were perfect, though.

Merveilleuses pâtisseries! J'ai reçu des cannolis, key lime pie, Mona Lisa & le dessert au fruit de la passion pour mon anniversaire. Chaque bouchée est touchante & délicieuse! Ma soeur est végane depuis 2 ans & n'a jamais triché, ce matin elle a dévoré chaque bouchée avec passion! Nous avons hâte de revenir!

Les gâteaux sont bons. , j'y suis allé plusieurs fois ,par contre l'accueil & le service sont médiocres ,aujourd'hui j'avais l'impression que je dérangeais , pourtant il n'y avait pas de monde , nous étions 2 clients seulement, pas de sourire , à peine si on a répondu à mon bonjour , & la dame est resté appuyée sur son comptoir à me répondre de loin & contre son gré puis se retire directement , une autre jeune fille prend le relais & ce n'est pas mieux , elle donnait l'impression d'être ennuyée par ma présence en faisant mon choix ( je ne suis pas sensée connaître tous les gâteaux & ce qu'ils contiennent c'est normal de vouloir savoir ce qu'il y a dedant car ce n'est pas inscrit ) . Un effort pour le service est à revoir .
