Across reviews of Restaurant Tuscolo, the food earns praise, with pizza and tiramisu highlighted, while service quality varies from friendly to slow and disengaged; some diners report that debit machine tipping adds tips after tax. Wait times for pasta can be lengthy and portions sometimes appear inconsistent when two people order the same dish, yet the overall experience is described as enjoyable by many. Prices are reasonable for a downtown setting and the wine selection is well received, with indoor and balcony seating noted as nice options. Overall, Restaurant Tuscolo delivers on flavor and atmosphere, but mixed service and pricing quirks can leave some patrons hesitant or not recommending it.
Such a cool & different vibe! Love the red lights & music selection. Michelle gave my friend a free shot for her birthday which really made her night! Will definitely be back to try some of the food cuz the drinks were so great(:
Food was good, service was ok, not super friendly. Main issue was the debit machines tips are after tax. Told the guy & claimed he didn't know, whatever, an extra couple bucks but still not right.

We waited nearly an hour to get four plates of pasta. Two of us ordered the same dish, but one portion was significantly smaller than the other - even though they were served at the same time. The pasta tasted fine, but definitely not worth the price. Overall, not a pleasant experience. Wouldn't recommend.
Unfortunately, this might have been the worst service I've experienced in Montreal. Our waiter was slow, disengaged, & seemed uninterested from the start. Dirty plates sat on our table for over 30 minutes, even though the restaurant was nearly empty.
That said, the food itself was good & the tiramisu was especially memorable. The prices were respectable as well, especially for a downtown restaurant.

The food is exceptional. You can dine inside or on the balcony. Good selection of wine from France & Italy. Everything was superb & we finished up with home made tiramasu that shouldn't be missed.
Excellente expérience chez Pizza Tuscolo ! Les pizzas étaient délicieuses, avec une pâte fine & bien croustillante, & des ingrédients frais & savoureux. Le service était rapide & chaleureux, & l'ambiance conviviale ajoutait une belle touche à notre repas. Un endroit parfait pour déguster une authentique pizza. Je recommande vivement & j'y retournerai sans hésite
Amazing Food! Fettuccine Tuscolo was best I've ever had.. Amazing friendly staff...An extra special thank you to Mata & Sam!! Great wine selection! Great atmosphere with even better vibe.. Great music too! Try the desserts!!!
first off, our reservations were not "taken down" even though i called an hour before coming to confirm. when we were seated, not even 5 minutes after, we were told to hurry up & pick what we want cause they have another group to take care of even though they messed up our reservation. the food was greasy & the man working was making us girls uncomfortable.
The pizza was good. Ordered Sarcena Pizza(It is one of the few vegetarian options available here). Along with the pizza, we ordered Penne all"Arrabbiata which seemed okay as compared to the pizza It was a bit undercooked although it was very flavorful.
