Enjoyed lunch yesterday with a friend at Ristorante Donato. The ambiance is elegant & lovely. The flowers at the entrance were so gorgeous we thought they were fake!
I selected the Table d'hôte, while my dining companion just ordered the pasta with mushrooms.
The fennel salad was the star of the meal for me, crisp & fresh with a tasty dressing. It was so good. I forgot to take a photo of it! I found the pasta slightly undercooked, however did not want to bother the kitchen to re-cook it. It was still tasty with a generous portion of mushrooms, served with freshly grated Parmesan. The portion was a good size.
The tiramisu was underwhelming. Although it was creamy, there was not much flavour of coffee or chocolate. The accompanying fruit was great!
Being a tea drinker, I found it odd that the restaurant doesn't offer the option of tea with the table d'hôte (only coffee).
My friend & I both enjoyed the complementary garlic focaccia, fresh & served warm. She enjoyed her glass of Prosecco!
Service was good but not overly warm or friendly (though the hostess was welcoming!).
We were celebrating my friend's birthday, & they were kind enough to put a candle in the dessert, which was appreciated.View more
The atmosphere is nice, the owner is super NICE.
The food was below my expectations, but the owner was nice enough to come to our table & took the time to get our feedback & explain why the food can be different from our expectations & why might be different from other fungi pizza I had at the other places.
The tiramisu was very good.View more
This upscale Italian restaurant truly excelled in its pasta dishes. The decor was elegant & charming, the waitstaff provided meticulous & friendly service. The pasta was remarkably fresh & delicate, featuring a light & airy texture that paired exquisitely with a Tuscan red wine. Though we rarely order dessert, the Tiramisu & the Orange Olive Oil cake were both tempting & unforgettable. The espresso was rich & aromatic, that we can smell from afar.View more
We arranged to have my daughter's birthday party here on a Saturday evening- party of 11! We got excellent service & everything was very personable & warm. The inside is warm & inviting & very photogenic (if you're into that sort of thing, as my teen daughter is!). We ate mostly the pizzas & pastas which were great, filling & reasonably priced. Other items on the menu are significantly more expensive but the quality is definitely there. Delicious tiramisu too. I had a great cocktail too.View more
The tiramisu here was one of the best I've ever had. In the past I've experienced tiramisus where the coffee liqueur had been waay too strong & overpowering but here I had the most harmonious balance of all the flavours.Absolutely phenomenal!!!!View more
Had a very good lunch at the restaurant, for a very affordable "table d'hôte". The linguine I had, tasted good. Tiramisu & the coffee at the end were very good. Nice service as well.View more

It was my first time at the restaurant last night & it was absolutely phenomenal! I went for a birthday & we had the group menu! Every bite was heavenly. Each plate tasted Devine & if I had to choose a place for my last meal, it would be at Donato's. lol Amazing team & service & the chefs nailed every dish! It was worth every penny & the exceeded our expectations. Keep up the great work! Oh & the Tiramisu was so amazing, fresh & light.View more
Have been wanting to go here forever & it finally happened!! Had such a high hopes & I was not disappointed! Our waiter was Darwiche & he was just ok. The food was excellent though! We got calamari & oysters as appetizers then we both got pasta for our main course. We finished off the night with amazing tiramisu! Music was not too loud. It was such a nice, lively atmosphere. Would definitely recommend!View more
Located on Sherbrooke street in the commercial district of Westmount, Donato is an excellent Italian style resto with a very warm décor, classic menu options & solid service. Overall, the restaurant has a somber, subtle & quiet ambiance which makes it great for a quiet night for two. While we were there there were several larger group tables & we didn't notice until leaving. As for the menu, all the classics are there including pastas, meats, fishes & pizzas. For our group we had Caesar Salad (good...nothing great, nothing bad), Fried Calamari (very good...meat was tender, not chewy & the batter was crispy), three different pasta dishes (Conchiglie Pomodoro, Spaghetti with Lobster & Rigatoni Bianco) all of which were excellent & tasty. For dessert we had the Tiramisu & the Chocolate Terrine (both of which were very good). Services was always within reach & very friendly, with the two services delivered with little delay. Would certainly be coming back for a second visit. Enjoy!View more
