Restaurant La Selva

One of the only restaurant Open on Sunday Evening. Definitely not just another pizza & pasta pseudo Italian restaurant. The Arancinis were just as good as in Sicily where they are a favorite street food. The sauce was rich with thick consistency only achieved by using the best & Freshest ingredients.

Both the tortiglioni & the pasta with Ragu were outstanding, leaving no doubt this is a genuine Italian restaurant at its best.

The wine Selection was impressive with a 5 page wine menu, & the waiter seem knowledgeable in describing our selection.

Given the size of the town & the age of staff available, the service was not yet award winning but we'll intentioned

Overall very impressed.Drove 1/2 hour from where we were staying & was well worth the distance.

I'd find it hard to recommend La Selva. The service was good until the mains which we waited for a long time & then it was a challenge to get someone attention when we wanted to bill. The pizza was not great. Soggy & just really messy. Have had gourmet pizza before & doesn't need to be soggy to be amazing. Maybe go with the pasta is you decide to go.

Different than other reviews, I found the prices appropriate. Carefully made pasta dishes & a pizza were delicious. Service was great too. My only issue was the atmosphere - we made reservations well ahead of time. Without the patio open, there simply aren't enough seats. It was packed (6pm) & my group was seated at a table with other people. There was a divider, which helped. But obviously less than ideal. Seating is cramped in only a small commercial unit. What I'd recommend is take-out rather than sit down.

We arrived at the restaurant on a Sunday afternoon & the restaurant was pretty empty. There was another table beside us. Since we were two, we were assigned a pretty small table which I understand but since there were so many tables available, I wish they would have seated us at a larger table so that we had a bit more space. The menu is intriguing, a lot of interesting dishes & they also have a menu that changes regularly which is always fun to see. However, I do feel like it is quite expensive. Around 30$ for a plate of pasta or a pizza is quite expensive. Especially when comparing to other restaurants that offers the same type of food. The service was polite & friendly. They were also pretty patient in explaining us the menu & answering our questions which is always nice. The food itself was flavourful & decent. Our favourite thing was definitely the sauces for the pasta. The crust of the pizza was a bit too burnt for us & had that burnt taste to it. The dessert which was supposed to be a tiramisu tasted nothing like it but tasted more like a chocolate cake with fruits. It was a bit disappointing.

All the food we've ordered now & in the past was excellent. Pizza, pasta, calamari, eggplant - all so delicious. Great selection of drinks & cocktails too.
The only thing that really disappointed was dessert. I was hoping to have delicious tiramisu in Italian restaurant, but instead it was kinda weird huge sugary sponge cake.

We came here a few weeks ago for dinner & loved it! The service by Lea was impeccable & the attention to detail was exceptional. We had the cavatelli calabrese, tortiglioni al limone & the margherita pizza. The pasta was definitely our favourite, & some of the best pasta we've ever had. If you're anywhere near Bromont it's worth it to top by for a delicious dinner!

Do not order pasta. Expect very small portions & high price. Welcoming waitresses. Pizza was way better than ravioli but not the best wood fired pizza I have had
