Was here for an event. The food was fantastic & service was impeccable! Servers were very attentive. The braised beef was fall off the bone. Didn't even need a knife. Would definitely go back & try other dishes!

Amazing food! We got the braised beef as our main, it fell off the bone so nicely, cooked perfectly! We got the tuna tartare & antipasto (charcuterie) as our starter with the tiramisu & the Ferrero Rocher cake for dessert. It was all filling & we loved it! They also have an excellent wine menu. The staff were very nice & helpful with recommendations. I highly recommend this spot.

The pistachio pasta is excellent & so was the seafood. Beef bavette was nice as well. But their cheese cake was not good & I mentioned it to the waiter.

The staff are rapid & professional. Also the owner was present both times to oversee the service. Very nice & polite man.

The custom wine glasses are a beautiful touch but I wish they'd replace the Modello water glasses since the logo is fading.

We had such an amazing experience at Pulcinella. We started with the charcuterie & cheese platter, & the second I saw the merlot cheese on the board, I knew we were in for something special. Everything was delicious. For mains, I had the braised beef & it was incredible - tender, juicy, & literally falling off the bone. My friend had the pesto pasta, cooked to perfection & super creamy. The service was just as impressive. The staff had great energy, were friendly & inviting, & our server was so sweet & knew the menu inside out. Overall, what an amazing spot. Definitely a hidden gem in Montréal. I'd go back in a heartbeat & would recommend. Thank you for having me :)

⭐?⭐?⭐?⭐?⭐? Absolutely Fantastic Experience!
Restaurant Pulcinella has an amazing vibe with a charming street-side terrace that really sets the mood. The staff & owners are incredibly friendly & welcoming-it feels like dining with family. The open kitchen adds a great touch, letting you see the magic as it happens.

The pistachio rigatoni was to die for-creamy, rich, & perfectly balanced. The braised beef was an absolute masterpiece: succulent & fall-off-the-bone tender, with deep, comforting flavors. Every detail, from the service to the atmosphere, was spot-on. Can't wait to return

The service, the food, the atmosphere was exactly what we were looking for & more! Such personalized service, the house made pasta & sauce made us want to lick our plates! The braised beef melted in our mouths! The cappuccino & tiramisu topped it all of perfectly! This is a must in Little Italy in Montreal.

Found this place randomly on Google Maps & noticed it had a 5.0 rating - had to check it out. We came for an early dinner & ordered the Caesar salad & octopus to start, then had the seafood pasta & beef pasta. Both were tasty, but we especially liked the seafood pasta - super refreshing & perfect for summer. Service was friendly, & the place has a nice cozy vibe. Glad we stumbled upon it!

The food was phenomenal, when you go make sure to not be in a rush & enjoy the food & service, we had the grilled octopus, antipasto, burrata & Cesar salad to start with a couple of bottles of Pinot Grigio of the month, then had braised beef, rigatoni pistachio, pappardelle mushrooms & cassarecce with braised beef. Finished off with a few coffees & Ferrero rocher cake. We wanted the tiramisu pistachio but they ran out, pre-order with your reservation if you like tiramisu!! Great restaurant, the service was great & the food perfectly cooked with explosive flavours.
