They have an extensive pasta selection & many delicious sauces. This place is perfect if you're hitting a convention at Palais de Congres or in the old port area. The service is always friendly & quick. I'm always excited to be I. The area yo grab a bit hereView more

There is something for everyone here! I visited La Popessa with my husband & son. We ordered la putanesca, the gnocchi special with bolognaise sauce, garlic bread, & a Caesar salad. The food was prepared right in front of us & was served piping hot. La putanesca was full of flavour, a generous portion & devoured entirely. The gnocchi special was rich, delicious & hearty. Our son also enjoyed sharing our meal & his favourite was the garlic bread! Needless to say, we will be returned again very soon!View more

Je recommenderais La Popessa à n'importe qui qui passe dans le coin. Mon expérience a été parfaite, le service était rapide & chaleureux, la gentille caissière m'a servi rapidement & avec un beau sourire. La décoration est vraiment immersive on se croirait en Europe avec les arbres. J'aime beaucoup le concept & retournerais à l'établissement asapView more

I was pleasantly surprised. The decor is nothing to write home about but our 2 pastas - bolognese & puttanesca - were both well prepared. The pasta had the texture of fresh pasta & serving sizes were generous. I took a picky teen & this place worked out well because you can customize your pasta & sauce choice.View more

Food was ok. But the staff were too arrogant. They messed up our order & when we questioned it, the guy straight away refused to fix it saying it's their rush hour & they don't have time to fix it.View more

Very strange & uncomfortable resto experience: I was promised an unlimited student plan on a monthly subscription for $150 but after 2 weeks when my classmates & I started coming for lunch they did a bait & switch. Missing ingredients on a daily basis, incorrect billing on my credit card, amongst other violations such as staff smoking cigarettes outside of Palais des Congrais. The popessa franchise has been steadily losing clientele base & closing locations; the one in Montreal set to close shortly. You are better off with the countless other alternatives provided by respectable independant mom & pop pasta cuccinas found everywhere in Montreal.

Loved the way they made pasta in front of us, great menu. However, the tortellini & pesto sauce that I had were quite bland. The garlic bread was excellent though! The prices were fair & the service was good. Not the prettiest place to eat at, but overall good & will go again.View more

Really enjoyed our experience in the restaurant. As a self proclaimed Pasta Expert, it's hard to impress me! The texture of the pasta was just right, al dente. Their bolognese sauce is exquisite & the parmesano on top was great quality. I was pleased with the speed of the service & the very fair price. My wife's Pesto was excellent as well. I know the restaurant is under new management & it's easy to see the love & effort of the ownership as they look to improve the atmosphere & overall experience.View more
