On Friday Feb 13 2025 I ordered the scallop appetizer & they were cooked to perfection, tasty with a savoury cream sauce for dipping & so delicious with the crusty bread. 😋 I then ordered the seafood linguine platter which was a generous portion of homemade pasta in a creamyAlfredo sauce garnished with fresh clams cooked to perfection, fresh shrimps that made my taste buds dance with unexpected texture & flavour that made me say 'Oh wow' & a delicious 6oz lobster tail topping the pasta. The cook on the pasta was al dente, perfect as everything else. The staff was attentive & friendly, the restaurant decor simple & elegant, while classic Italian opera songs played in a most pleasing & relaxing ambiance version. My friend also enjoyed her order of steak so much that she ate the whole 17-oz & surprised herself leaving nothing on her plate! There's so much more good to say! We were happy with our first experience there & I would certainly go again.
Absolutely loved this place. The food was outstanding from start to finish, & the service was just as impressive-attentive, friendly, & never rushed.
We started with a beautiful Italisn antipasto & a tuna tartare that was fresh, well-balanced, & perfectly seasoned. For the main, the lamb shank was the star of the night-fall-off-the-bone tender, rich, & comforting, served on the creamiest mashed potatoes with perfectly cooked vegetables. You could tell it was slow-cooked with care.
& the dessert… wow. Hands down the best carrot cake I've ever had. Moist, flavorful, not overly sweet, & just indulgent enough to end the meal on a high note.
Overall, an amazing dining experience with high-quality food & excellent service. Definitely a spot I'll be coming back to-& recommending to everyone.

Upbeat modern setting in Little Italy of Montreal. Every veggie is fresh from the Marche' Jean Talon (farmers market) where they glow & are aromatic with freshness.
Split the veal & linguine with rose sauce to have meat & pasta. Comfort food qui.
Pulcinella was the best meal we had during our 5 days in Montreal. It's a great spot just outside the main tourist area, so it feels relaxed & welcoming.
The seasonal menu really stood out. Everything was fresh, made from scratch, & fantastic. We had the Rigatoni Pistache, Pappardelle Champignons along with cocktails wine & dessert. I would have included pictures with my review but we simply devoured everything.
The staff were warm & friendly, making the whole experience even better. Highly recommend if you want great food without the tourist crowds.
Pulcinella is a great spot for anyone looking for a relaxed meal with excellent homemade pasta. The atmosphere is comfortable & unpretentious, & the food is clearly made with care-especially the pasta, which is fresh & full of flavor. It's just a 3-minute walk from Jean-Talon station, which connects to both the blue & orange metro lines. Definitely worth the short ride from the convention center. It was the best meal I had while in town for a conference at the Palais des congrès.
I had my birthday dinner here last night, & the food was TO DIE FOR. SO FRESH & DELICIOUS!!!!! I got to try the grilled octopus, tuna tartare, the burrata, the pistacchio rigatoni. Everything was A1!!!! Phenomenal!!!! I am definitely coming back to try more food cause there's just so much I still wanna try.
Shoutout to Ralph! Always a good time & great service! Thank you for making my birthday memorable !!!!!!!!!!

Nestled near the bustling Jean-Talon Market, it perfectly captures the essence of local, urban Italian cuisine.

Pulcinella is the perfect spot for those seeking a genuine taste of Italy in the heart of Montreal. Ideal for a casual night out or a comforting meal, it truly delivers a slice of la dolce vita.
Pulcinella is a must-visit for Italian food lovers! The burrata was absolutely to die for - so creamy & fresh. The pappardelle mushroom pasta was perfection, with rich, earthy flavors that left us wanting more. To top it off, the drinks were super tasty & paired perfectly with the meal. The warm atmosphere & attention to detail made the experience even better. If you're craving authentic Italian cuisine, this is the place to go. We'll definitely be back!
Discovered this utter gem near Jean Talon Market last night. Exquisite entrée of grilled octopus followed by a fresh pasta dish of mushroom tagliatelle that I cannot stop raving about! Dessert was probably the best tiramisu I've ever had & a perfect cappuccino. Wine list is lovely & not too contrived or confusing. & service? Absolutely hands-down spot-on. Highly recommend this little eatery, but make reservations because it was -understandably- packed on a Friday evening.
Fantastic new Italian restaurant! Pulcinella came highly recommended, so my wife & I, along with another couple, decided to give it a try-& it did not disappoint! The food was outstanding, all made with fresh, high-quality ingredients. The pasta is homemade, I had the mushroom pappardelle-absolutely incredible! The grilled veal chop was tender & among the best I've ever had. Service was excellent, attentive, & friendly. We'll definitely be returning!
