Review Summary

Pulcinella is described as a cozy, authentic Italian spot in Montreal with a welcoming atmosphere and a lively street-side terrace, where fresh handmade pasta and bold comforting flavors shine. Reviewers praise pistachio rigatoni, pappardelle champignons sauvages, seafood pasta, octopus, braised beef, and rabbit, along with a pistachio tiramisu and other desserts, highlighting that the menu offers generous portions and strong value. Service is consistently attentive and friendly, with staff guiding allergies and preferences and contributing to a warm, homey vibe. The open kitchen and casual elegance add to the experience, while the space can feel small and a bit noisy when crowded. Pulcinella is repeatedly recommended for a memorable night out, a great spot for groups or dates, and a reliable haven for lovers of authentic Italian cuisine near the Jean Talon Market, delivering both quality and hospitality.

We hosted my daughter's Communion & Confirmation party at Pulcinella, & it was absolutely perfect from start to finish. The food was incredible! The pistachio pasta was rich & flavorful, & the braised lamb was melt-in-your-mouth perfection. Every single guest was raving about the meal.
The service was top-notch, & the atmosphere was warm & welcoming. A huge shoutout to Ralph-the most amazing host! He went above & beyond to make sure every detail was taken care of & made us feel like family. Our guests are still raving about the experience. Thank you, Pulcinella, for making such a special day even more unforgettable!

The food was absolutely mouth watering! Best homemade gnocchi I've ever had - they tasted like perfect soft clouds, they were so delicious. The owner Ralph is so accommodating! Will definitely be making this restaurant a staple I'll keep going back to. Vibe & atmosphere is amazing for family Gatherings too!

The food was amazing! Eddy & Ralph make you feel right at home. They always accommodate my food preferences. Highly recommend this gem. Try the seafood pasta, octopus & / or salmon tartare are my favorites. I love that as you sit down they bring you some foods to snack on. Finally, I've never had trouble with parking!

De retour de ce nouveau restaurant dans la Petite Italie & c'était excellent ! Des bonnes pâtes fraîches, une excellente pieuvre grillée en entrée & un superbe service du proprio lui-même, Ralph. Nous y retournerons c'est certain.
