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
Groups are welcome and reservations are strongly recommended.
The lounge is equipped with big screens for sports events. Our specialized wine list and wide selection of beers and cocktails is the height of the Italian zest for life!

It was fantastic. Their speciality is calamari & it came out perfect. Not chewy or greasy but we'll seasoned. We had a very nice caesar salad. I had a chicken dish served with vegetables & potatoes. I had the choice of pasta instead but I chose to get the dish as designed. It was perfect that way. The only thing that could have been better is the gnocchi gorgonzola. I think it needed a little more gorgonzola. The service was excellent & the food was priced well. If in town again it is on my list of places to eat again.
Superbe ambiance, excellent service & la nourriture est authentique & délicieuse !!
Nous y avons passé merveilleux molent ce samedi 30 déc 2023 !! Merci à toute l'équipe de Corneli !! 🇮🇹♥️
La rampe d'accès pour fauteuil roulant est trop courte & pour passer la marche extérieure, il faut trois personnes pour soulever & pousser un fauteuil motorisé. Si la rampe amovible était deux fois plus longue, cela faciliterait énormément l'accès & l'autonomie de la personne qui doit se déplacer en fauteuil roulant.
Merci de prendre en considération mon commentaire. Pour le reste, c'est toujours un plaisir d'aller manger chez Corneli.
Vraiment décevant! Nous avons retourné les moules 2 fois & elles n ont pas été meilleures. Le serveur ne les a pas chargé! Service expéditif. Repas froid, bref à éviter un vendredi soir !!!!
