Overall, Rita draws frequent praise for delicious Italian fare with fresh, well-balanced pasta and pizza, generous portions, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere. The menu is described as lively, with house-made components and evolving specials that keep things interesting, along with standout items such as the potato millefeuille and stracciatella. Many guests enjoy the attentive and friendly service, but some experiences mention a busy or noisy room, moments of being rushed or pressed to leave, and occasional discrepancies on billing or wait times. The setting and decor feel family-friendly and charming, making Rita a reliable go-to for a flavorful evening, whether for a casual dinner or a special occasion, and many guests say they would return.
Wow, j'ai adoré ma soirée à ce resto! Belle ambiance! Serveuse qui connaît très bien ses plats & qui a offert un super service! La nourriture était délicieuse, je vais revenir sans hésitation!!!
Quel bel endroit! Cozy, beau menu, une belle histoire & plein de photos de Rita... nous avions'la' banquette du resto... & le service impeccable! Je vous suggère le mille feuille de pommes de terre en entrée, les spaghettis carbonara ou les Agnolottis & pour terminer la crème glacée vanille/afogato ou encore le décadent sorbet aux bleuts.. OMG! Ça vaut le détour assurément!

C'est vraiment une des expériences de resto italien les plus agréables en ville. L'endroit est petit, mais avec une ambiance incroyablement chaleureuse & intime; ça donne vraiment un feeling de bistro de quartier. Le concept mélange les racines italiennes avec une touche montréalaise, & cet équilibre est vraiment bien réussi. Les plats sont clairement le point fort. Surtout les pâtes & les pizzas, qui sont très réussies; tout est préparé avec des ingrédients frais & on sent la qualité dans chaque assiette. Le menu peut changer régulièrement, mais leur façon de revisiter les classiques italiens avec une touche moderne est vraiment appréciable.
Celebrated my 45th birthday here! We were a group of 6 & we had lots of fun! The waitress was super nice & help with our orders. The cocktails were stunning & super tasty. We loved the appetizers, the pasta, & the pizza! Loved the desserts too. Will definitely come back.
J'aime beaucoup ce restaurant à Verdun. L'ambiance est très agréable & le service est toujours top. Les choix de plats sont vraiment bons, que ce soit les pizzas ou les pâtes.
Je recommande particulièrement les pâtes aux champignons & à la crème, vraiment délicieuses. La carte des vins est aussi très jolie.
Une super adresse pour fêter un événement, organiser une sortie romantique ou partager un repas entre amis.
I loved everything about this place. The menu, atmosphere, food & staff were all amazing.
be aware that you may not find all the items you see on the reviews as their menu changes from time to time. A tip is checking their instagram account for the latest items served.
Such a gem.

I went there for our anniversary 7 year me with my husband we order the pasta de jour & pizza also the drink. But I didn't like my food so our servers came which is Marie eve she offer me to change the dish I was happy but when we have to pay the bill I look at the bill & see the price was change so the pasta that she change for me is 32$ without inform me anything. My first dish is pasta salmon for 22$ so I'm not happy that she charge without tell me the price & feel that she took advantage from customer. We won't come back thank you
We keep coming back for a reason! Beautiful place, great service & even better food! Everytime we come it's always a great experience. Food is always amazing & the vide is great. Definitely recommend

The food is excellent, but the service was overly pushy. We were interrupted constantly (around every 10 minutes) & it felt like we were being rushed to finish & leave.
