The arancinis were fantabulous! I loved the beet salad too. It is funny how you sit in a room & eat things you would not replicate at home, but it is not just that. You also pay to get to be in a decor with all those green plants ornaments, amazing furniture & lovely lighting fixtures. I may not travel much, but I do travel in the things that I see.View more
Very good, better than most, presentation does NOT look like restaurant posted dish pics, those pics seem staged.View more
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!View more
Je suis allée pour le brunch avec des amis. Le resto est beau & le service était bon... mais la nourriture décevante, petit, sans gout, pas ouf, sans plus. Je reviens pas.View more
Delicious food & warm ambience. I njoyed a grilled octopus & margarita pizza!View more
Another unfortunate experience for me here. That marks 2 rather lousy dinners for me here.
Service was slow & our server was having issues with his voice & couldn't speak loud or hear us well. For that matter we couldn't hear him well either!
We ordered drinks & every time it would take longer to get the drinks than the food! But the worst part was I ordered the foie gras ravioli special & got some sort of pasta in a red sauce. When I asked if the foie gras was in the sauce already, the server looked shocked & said'no you ordered the VODKA pasta, not foie gras'. He did apologize, take the plate & replace it, but my dinner date sat alone with their meal while it got cold & waited for my proper order to get there. It was awkward. & NOTHING was done about it. No compensating for the mistake, no apology drink or dessert or anything. Any professional establishment would have done something for such a mistake.
This is the second time I've had a bad experience with no proper apology. The food is good, but I unfortunately won't be going back.View more
Food was meh, service was even more meh & the atmosphere was just okay, nothing special, not impressedView more
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.View more

Nous avons invités notre famille pour la fête de Pâques.
Tous ont été ravis par la qualité des plats & que dire du service impeccable de Julien. D'un grand professionnalisme, Julien a su, avec son équipe agrémenter la soirée de tous nos convives.
Merci & longue vie au restaurant Donato!View more
Ristorante Donato - 5 Stars
From start to finish, everything at Ristorante Donato was flawless. The hostess was welcoming, the waiter attentive & knowledgeable. The Pizza Margherita had a perfect wood-fired crust & fresh, flavorful toppings. The Steak Bavette was tender & rich, cooked exactly right. The Penne Arrabbiata hit the perfect balance of spice & tang. Excellent service, exceptional food - a perfect dining experience.View more
The bread was delicious, fluffy & full of flavour. The pasta was al dente but a little too hard even so, the sauce was good but not worth the price, same for the pizza. The truffle parmesan fries only had a hint of truffle, which was disappointing. The service was quick & efficient & they agreed to cut a cake we brought.
For the girlies, the bathroom was very aesthetic for picturesView more

Came on a Sunday night with my son. Warm ambiance. Staff is excellent with kids.
Pasta was phenomenal. Definitely a must visit & we will be back soon!
Update 2025: came several times since my first review. The food & service are consistently excellent. This is a MUST in Montreal.View more
