About

Founded in 1960 by brothers Peppino and Federico Corneli, the restaurant continues to uphold the same authentic recipes passed down through generations. A true family business, it is now proudly run by the new generation — Nicola, Pina, and Alex Corneli, together with Chef Joe Nicodemo. Our homemade pasta, hand-crafted by Nonna Donna, remains the heart and soul of our cuisine. And of course, our pizza baked in an oven imported from Italy delivers that traditional taste we’re famous for.

Visit us at our two locations:
Little Italy – Montreal
Vimont – Laval

Review Summary

Ristorante Pizzeria Corneli is widely appreciated for its authentic Italian cuisine, with many diners praising the delicious pizza, pasta, and generous portion sizes. The restaurant is frequently described as a warm and inviting destination, perfect for family gatherings, celebrations, and special occasions. While service levels are consistently highlighted as attentive, professional, and friendly, the atmosphere is often noted as being very lively and occasionally quite loud during peak times. Although parking can be limited when the restaurant is busy, the combination of high-quality meals, efficient staff, and a festive environment makes it a popular choice for many visitors.

But once a month I come up to Laval to have lunch with my dear old buddy Angelo & we've met in downtown Montreal at the cornelli there. & of course it's a wonderful place steeped in historical references & the famous imported stove from Italy rebuilt brick by brick. They tell me with that rotating motor for the pizzas on the bottom. I'm a pizza fanatic. & Angelo is the previous restaurant owner of an Italian restaurant that wasn't very cheap at all. Like 25 years ago I paid $55 for lunch at his place & he slipped us & a pair of teeth for free. So here I am at cornelli's & Angelo tells me they opened up one in Laval & that he went with his wife who loves pizza & it was really good. I joined him. The place was surprisingly attractive or something so basically square footage cubicle with a little bit of dense for the pizza area where they have a similar stove but more modernized, for their pizza making. But on the same principle of rotation. Rotation. Sat near the pizza place area so I could see the stove. The staff was fast & pleasant enough though. Highly functional as the place was quite busy & just for lunch on Friday. I think it probably could be busier but it was a sunny day & I'm sure people were not thinking they should sit inside at some restaurant. Then again other people like us said great day to go to where restaurant & they didn't disappoint at all. The pizza was perfect. Angelo pointed out to crust at the end while I made the points about the bottom of the pizza being cooked sufficiently & not soft or doughy. On top Angelo preferred his to mine & so did I because I took the basic only the one named after the restaurant & it's okay & it's probably the cheapest pizza. Joy lesser ingredients perhaps.. But overall very good indeed. Quality of food & service McLendliness of the restaurant...
.
The pros & cons I found were only one thing. Because by the way, there was parking right near the front door for handicapped & that helps me a lot. & there was one slot available for me just to the left of the front doors. Thank you for having that handicap parking, Dear Cornelli restaurant...
The one thing that I noticed right away which was a little bit stressful compared to the downtown Cornelli. Was that downtown? The structure absorbs sound quite well, whereas the Laval one has a lot of reflective sound & the acoustics for a non-full restaurant were a little bit challenging to hear both the waitresses & my buddy Angelo

Compared to a restaurant I used to go to in the West Island of Montreal In a Famiglia & cie., now close due to the covid-19 epidemic.... If anybody knows where they've reopened if at all. Tony & Frank & Giovanni running the place with a great staff. Let me know & I'll go anywhere they are... But they had challenged acoustics as well. They did put in some acoustic tiles & some low-hanging low light lamps & they are always packed. Thursday, Friday, Saturday only open though for suppers.. but full to the hills
.
They're acoustics also were not the greatest but they made a bit of effort to put in some absorption but table to table pretty close together full of people. They going to have acoustic issues.

This Cornelli isn't as squished in their seating arrangement as La famglia was set up to be but their acoustics for even a less than half full restaurant were somewhat challenging. That's both good & bad
. The excitement of a busy, noisy restaurant adds to some of the ambience. It also gets rid of customers who won't linger around a lot like the old McDonald's formula of it may look comfortable & good & welcoming, but the chairs are designed to not have you sit there too long. Sort of thing.
.
Be that as in May the restaurant was set up in an attractive manner with a great staff & a excellent menu & the pizzas were very good. I will go there again. I will order pizza again & I will try other types of pizza. Just having lunch with Angelo in Laval
.
Actually, we're scheduled to meet next Friday, at the downtown Cornelli. 🌟✨👍

Nous avons organisé une fête de depart pour une collègue très chère & un autre collègue a suggéré cet endroit pour célébrer l'événement.
C'était la première fois pour beaucoup d'entre nous.
& nous avons adoré l'endroit, très bonne ambiance, excellente nourriture, très belle décoration & personnel très gentil & serviable.
Nous avons été servis par John (enfin je crois que c'est son nom) mais j'ai encore une photo de lui 😜 . Merci pour votre gentillesse, votre charisme & pour avoir fait de notre soirée un moment privilégié.
Merci à l'équipe de cuisine pour la nourriture délicieuse, à la fille à l'entrée qui nous a accueillis. Je recommande cet endroit à 100% pour tout type de célébration.

Je vous remercie ! 🥰🥰

The restaurant was packed with communion & confirmation celebrations. We were a small group of 10 & we were still well served & promptly & the plates we ordered were fantastic. I had the cavatelli with sausage & rapini & it was 👌. My husband the lasagna & he said was fantastic, my son had the penne alla Gigi & he adored it & my daughter's pepperoni pizza was delish! Everything was great & service was great too! Definitely returning!

My first time here & it was the best service I've ever had. I've never met a waiter like the one we had. His name was Jean.
