MORETTI GRIFFINTOWN is where it all began. The exposed brick and warm lighting add to the cozy atmosphere. While pizzas fire up in the wood burning oven, the scent of truffle mac & cheese fills the air. The vibe is perfect for dinner with friends, the cocktails and wine will not disappoint.
Across the reviews, Pizzeria Moretti is described as a charming Italian spot with delicious pizzas, pastas, burrata and desserts and a warm, inviting atmosphere, though experiences vary widely with service and pacing. Many diners praise the food quality, fresh ingredients and attentive staff, while others find the service disorganized or slow and some interactions feel overly persistent or inattentive. The vibe is repeatedly described as lively and stylish, with a DJ on weekends and a vibrant energy that many guests enjoy, but the noise level is often cited as very high, making conversations difficult. Value is mixed, with some finding the pizzas fairly priced and others noting higher prices or small portions and occasional per person charges. Several reviews highlight strong drinks or wine, good desserts, and a generally welcoming first impression, yet a few report issues such as miscommunications about orders, delays, or in one case a rat was seen and the response criticized. Overall, Pizzeria Moretti delivers standout flavor and atmosphere for many guests, but consistency in service and noise management appears to be the dividing line between consistently positive experiences and more critical ones.
Absolutely devastated at how I was treated through the phone. I called on wednesday to make a reservation for 11 people for the following saturday & made SURE to ask about the group menu & wether or not we had to have it. I was assured that it was over 12 people & that it would be fine. On saturday, I called to let them know we might have an extra person & asked if the group menu was for 12 or 13 people & the man who answered told me the group menu was mandatory for groups of 10 & more. My friend's birthday was ruined the day of, because your employees don't seem to agree on a policy.
Un vrai coup de coeur ! Les plats sont délicieux, on sent la qualité des ingrédients & le savoir-faire italien. Les pâtes étaient parfaites, & la pizza, un vrai régal. L'équipe est super sympa & l'ambiance très agréable. J'y retournerai sans hésiter !
The food was delicious! The calamari was incredible, with two amazing sauces to accompany it: one mayonnaise & one fig. I had the truffle mushroom burrata pasta. The pasta, mushroom & truffle sauce were incredible! On the other hand, my burrata, while not sour, was on its way to being sour. I will admit though that most of my friends had burrata in their plates & they were apparently delicious so maybe it was just mine. My friends say the vodka pasta, diavolla pizza & the burrata pizza were delicious. The Ceasar salad was great, but the portion size was small for the price. To finish it off, we made a reservation for 7:30pm, & were only given our table at 8:30pm, which lost one star straight off the bat.
Adèle is amazing! She offered exceptional service, making our experience truly memorable. The food was absolutely incredible, beyond our expectations. Highly recommend!

Hey hey! Très belle ambiance, beau restaurant, le staff est nice, nous étions beaucoup alors nous avons choisi entre 5 à 6 repas. Je n'ai pas pu manger à ma faim malheureusement. En gros je suis satisfait a cause de l'ambiance, c'est ce qui m'a marqué. Nourriture? Good!!! Mon seul problème est que le bar est situé près de l entrée, ce qui rend la circulation difficile. Enjoy !!!
I always say, you judge a place by the taste of their aranchini ! very yummy, i enjoyed immensely. staff is beautiful & kind ... very loud atmosphere but a vibe
The food was good, but it was overpriced. The service was terrible by the hosts. My friends & i reserved at 8:30 & we arrived at 8:25. The host made us wait until 9:30 saying that they overbooked, but during that hour people who arrived after us got their tables. When we went to complain he said that they reserved (so did we) & that it was life, so we had to wait or go to another moretti. He did not apologize once. However, when we finally got our table, the waitress was really nice & polite, but the mood was already ruined. It's a pretty restaurant, but the music is super loud so if you're planning on having a lot of discussion maybe chose another place.
A good Italian restaurant in griffintown. Everything we ordered was tasty. A bit pricey though. Friendly service. The only issue was music was a bit too loud & it's difficult for us to talk. Wonder if lunchtime is better in that regard.
Grabbed a Griffintown pizza & a salad right before closing when we arrived to town. We didn't know what to expect, ordered quickly on a whim because it was close by. We were really taken aback by how absolutely delicious the pizza was. Honestly it was top 3 pizzas of my life. The salad was delicious & perfectly dressed too.
Un restaurant qui compte parmis les meilleures de Montréal selon moi. Des plats très appétissant & généreux. L'ambiance est plutôt bonne & l'atmosphère du lieu est top. Une petite chose à redire pourtant, le volume de la musique est assez fort, ce qui ne permet pas de dialoguer facilement avec ces invités. Merci pour le service d'exception & à bientôt sans aucun doute !
Souper sur la terrasse fin juin. Il s'est mis a pleuvoir légèrement. Nous avons dû demander au serveur de fermer les lattes du toit. Ils ne semblaient rien remarquer! Service & ambiance correct, sans plus. J'ai commandé la pizza Diavola. La croute brûlée au pourtour, le centre mou baignant dans l'huile. Décevant, ma pire pizza à vie. Les cocktails sont bons!
