Au Ristorante Donato, les critiques soulignent généralement un cadre beau et raffiné, ainsi qu'un service attentif, parfois exceptionnel, ce qui en fait une destination gastronomique de premier plan même lorsque les expériences varient. Le menu est salué pour des plats frais et savoureux tels que la salade de fenouil, les arancini, la burrata, le branzino et le ribeye, avec plusieurs plats décrits comme bien équilibrés et présentés avec élégance; toutefois un certain nombre de convives signalent des pâtes insuffisamment cuites, des sauces trop salées ou des plats qui ne justifient pas le prix. Bien que de nombreuses visites soient décrites comme mémorables et dynamiques avec une ambiance agréable, quelques expériences mentionnent du bruit, une certaine incohérence du service ou des portions chères pour ce qui est offert, suggérant que Donato peut être remarquable mais pas sans faille. Dans l'ensemble, c'est un endroit souvent recommandé pour une soirée ou un repas élégant, offrant une cuisine de qualité et une ambiance chic.
Went to Donato Restaurant for our anniversary last night & wow… we had been told to go for a while & people were right... we now also highly recommend. The food was exquisite, exactly what we were looking for; a guaranteed good meal, great service, & amazing wine. They made our celebration feel really special, & every single person from the hostess to our waiter was just perfect. Such a gem without even needing to go downtown! Thank you again to the staff yesterday!

Beautiful decor, nice atmosphere, & great customer service! The food was above expectations. We took burrata, octopus, calamari & steak. Very well done. One of the best margarita drinks we've ever had. The only one tiny disappointment was their pana cota for dessert. We hope to see cannoli in their menu next time ;) highly recommended
Then restaurant was welcoming & beautiful atmosphere. We were welcome by a lovely hostess to our place. Our server Eddy was spot on the whole night with some nice recommandations for special & cocktails & wines. The beef tartare was phenomenal as well as the Bistecca! Would definitely recommend
We noticed the Maître D was involved during the service looking out for tables Wich is always a good thing. That's always a good sign of well managed establishment. Donato has a nice vibe with the choice of music & the lights. Will definitely come back!
I've been coming to this Italian restaurant for a while because I live close by & I've always enjoyed the food & the atmosphere. It's usually one of my go-to places for dinner or a date night, & I've recommended it to friends before.
We had an amazing evening at Donato. The restaurant itself is beautiful & has a great atmosphere, & the staff made us feel welcome right away with attentive & friendly service throughout the night. The drinks were excellent, & the food was just as impressive. The ribeye steak was cooked perfectly. Very tender, juicy, & full of flavor. We also tried the burrata salad, which I highly recommend. Overall, the quality of the food & the level of service made it a fantastic dining experience, & it's definitely a place we look forward to visiting again.
Experience here was triple A. Toa who manages the restaurant was super kind & observant when it came to our experience. Gabriel who is our server was excellent & provided a dining experience we will never forget. Highly recommend this restaurant to anyone trying to have a fun or casual time, the dining experience is dynamic & perfect for any type of night!

Unbelievable experience! Amazing host staff led by Tao. My server Gabriel was excellent & knowledgeable. Overall would recommend to anyone looking for a fine dining experience. Will definitely be back.
Meilleur tartare de thon que j'ai jamais goûté, incroyable! La pizza était très bonne , par contre, les pâtes je pense ça manque un peu de goût !
En tout une bonne adresse, je recommande fortement le tartare de thon, c'était hors menu mais top!!

Donato is a nice Italian restaurant with a small menu. The pasta was really good the first time we went, though I wish there were more options. The second time, I tried the steak, but it was overcooked - I had asked for medium, & it came burnt, so I wouldn't recommend the steak unless you make it very clear.
The pistachio tiramisu was absolutely delicious! I really hope they keep it on the menu. Overall, it's a good spot, but they could definitely add a bit more variety.
Merci à Akil & Tao pour le service incroyable. Toujours là au bon moment, dès que je finissais mon verre de vin quelqu'un était là directement pour le remplir. Ce restaurant a beaucoup de professionnalisme. Je le recommande fortement.
We loved Dinato's!! The food was great. We had several apps, pastas & pizzas. Our whole family ate family style & loved it. The decor is also very chic & welcoming. I highly recommend Dinato's!
I'm going to be a bit tougher in this review, just because the prices are a bit high for the food you get. First of all, the service & the atmosphere are wonderful! No notes. The food isn't bad, but it does feel over priced. For example, the half chicken, it's a higher price, which should make sense, because it's a half chicken. Except it's literally JUST A HALF CHICKEN. No garnish. No side. No starch. No vegetable. Just a half chicken on a plate. The other dish we ordered was a pasta dish with the vodka sauce. The sauce was great, but the pasta didn't feel freshly made. Which at those prices, I would expect fresh pasta. Overall, it was an ok experience. I don't think I'd recommend or go back unless the prices change.
This place is my favourite steakhouse in montreal. I like steak but Im not a die hard fan but this place makes me a die hard fan! Filet Mignon, Foie Gras, Red Wine Sauce, Black Truffle Do i need to say more!!! Its the best thing on the menu believe me! I took my boyfriend for his birthday & he loved it. The place is also beautiful & very demure. I recommend!
