We had an early reservation (6pm). The stone-faced Maître d' gave us a small table by the window. Service was prompt, friendly & polite. We had an appetizer of deep-fried cauliflower, which tasted like deep-fried cauliflower, accompanied by a sauce which tasted of nothing in particular. We ordered'Branzino all griglia.' This was an unexceptional presentation of sea bass, moderately tasty, but very small & mostly skin. We also ordered'Rigatoni, ragu bianco di vitello, pecorino toscano.' The pasta had a hard veneer, as though it had spent too much time under a warming lamp. The sauce was thin & bland. The veal was minced & tasteless. By 7:15 the room was full & the hubbub was deafening. Another guest squatted next to me & had a very loud & long conversation with a seated guest, in Spanish. Prices were high, which probably has more to do with the Westmount location than anything else. One appetizer, four glasses of white wine, two main courses: $172.46 plus tip. We have no plans to go back.

We booked bar seats for New Year's Eve because there were no more tables available. I had left a note with my reservation saying that we would love table seats if any free up. When we got there, we were so happy to find out that they had saved a table for us! Throughout the evening, all the staff were so kind & pleasant to interact with, & the service was overall amazing. They adapted perfectly to our rhythm & did not make us feel rushed to leave at all. The food was also delicious. Overall, we had a lovely experience.

It is my second time visiting this restaurant, & I definitely believe that I'll be back.
Great ambience & the music had me wondering who had aux - songs straight from my own playlist! The service is always very fast & the food is very enjoyable. The salmon tartare is a hit. I ordered the lobster pasta again this time & the sauce is just as good as I remembered it. We also got the bistecca which was very tender. Overall, great place & will return

Had a great night here! We had to wait a bit for our table, but the manager Tao totally made up for it with a free round of drinks & free valet - super classy move. The food was delicious, & the vibe of the place was spot on. Great service, great atmosphere, & overall a really fun experience. Definitely coming back!

Un excellent service & une ambiance magnifique !

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.

Resto très bruyant, les tables ne sont pas très espacés l une de l autre alors ce n est pas l endroit pour une soirée romantique... Le resto est très beau par contre & j ai beaucoup apprécié le service de toute l équipe en place. Mention spéciale à l hôtesse qui était en place cette soirée là (un vendredi).

Les cocktails ( Bloody Cesar) étaient bien dosés. Liste de vin dispendieuse.

La foccacia offerte était délicieuse.Les calamars frits quand a eux, légèrement trop salés. Cocktail de grosses crevettes (3), bien. Les plats de pâtes étaient très bien, portions suffisantes. Le highlight de la soirée revient au dessert, la panna cotta, fraiche & crémeuse.

Si je suis dans le secteur, il me fera plaisir d y retourner.
