It's a little bit like Italy, but it's mostly Montreal. There are plenty of good reasons to visit us.

We came here to celebrate a special occasion. Highly recommend booking as can get quite busy even for a weekday evening. As soon as we entered, we were greeted by a friendly face & our waitress Clara attended to us as soon as we sat down. We couldn't decide on the wine & she kindly offered us a taster. For food, we decided to have the fresh Buffarella & Red Beets as starter alongside with bread, followed by the Raviolotto for main. The quantity is decent so this was sufficient for us. The Buffarella was very fresh, sweet & delicate, highly recommended. Red beets on the other hand, in comparison, was a little more ordinary. The Raviolotto was very well made, pasta tasted fresh & the filling, sauce & mushrooms on the side accompanied this dish extremely well. Would definitely recommend this! A word of warning, it is on the slightly heavy side. Lastly to finish, we ordered the Olive Oil Cake. This was extremely tasty, moist & its texture perfectly dense yet light! Really enjoyed this as a dessert & a healthy choice to finish! Clara was extremely attentive & made the evening even better. We had an amazing experience here & would no doubt be visiting again in the near future. Thank you for the amazing service & making us feel very welcomed!

J'ai vraiment eu l'impression qu'il fallait se dépêcher pour manger. Ce n'était pas agréable, aussitôt que je finissais de manger on m'enlevait mon assiette . Ce n'était pas relaxant comme expérience . J'avais des hautes attentes. Très déçue

I've been to rita twice now & wow one of my favourite little italian restaurants! The ambiance & service are perfect, but the food is excellent! Parts of the menu change with the season & I find that so fun m/ original & it's why it makes me want to go back. A must try in verdun!

Un groupe de 12 personnes a visité Rita pour l'anniversaire de ma femme. Pour un groupe aussi nombreux, il faut réserver à l'avance, mais le processus était simple & totalement valable. Le service des plats à la manière d'un repas familial était charmant, tout était délicieux, & il semblait que les plats n'arrêtaient jamais d'arriver. C'était particulièrement impressionnant compte tenu du menu à prix fixe très raisonnable. L'équipe a pris en charge nos allergies alimentaires avec attention, & pour couronner le tout, Sarah & le reste du personnel ont offert un service incroyable. Merci pour ce repas fantastique & cette excellente soirée ! A group of 12 of us visited Rita for my wife's birthday. For a group this large, you need to book ahead, but the process was easy & 100% worth it. The family-style service of the food was delightful, everything was delicious, & it seemed the dishes never stopped coming. This was particularly impressive given the very reasonable fixed price menu. The team attentively accommodated our food allergies, & to top it off, Sarah & the rest of the staff provided incredible service. Thanks for the amazing meal & great evening!

Rita is one of the better restaurants in town (superb food, superb service, superb dining experience), right now. Smart move on their part not to go with yet another classic Italian formula (there are many good classic Italian restaurants, already, in & around Montreal), but to inspire themselves from Italy & come up with something that is cosmopolitan & contemporary exactly like the city where they are situated, Montreal, which allows them to think outside the box when need be (even though, the core Italian flavour profiles are there, for the undistracted minds), & that is a good thing. Here's what I found impressive about Rita: they could have walked away with some approximate Italian food with the excuse that "Hey...I already told ya that I am just a bit of Italy but mostly a lot of Montreal", as per what they clearly mentioned on their instagram, but No...they have opted to be Italian where it should be & doing it very well. That is the kind of action that deserves high respect. Top respect! As for their Pastry Cheffe, wow wow wow (her creations taste great, superb finesse in those creations too). A gifted Pastry Cheffe. I'll happily go back.

Best Italian in town, hands down. Every dish will blow your mind, I promise-I've been here multiple times & never leave disappointed. The service is always above & beyond, & the atmosphere is always buzzing. Perfect for birthday dinners, date nights, or "just because I'm craving a pizza, & it's Wednesday" kinda meals.

Love this place! The food is always excellent & I love the cozy atmosphere. It's intimate yet still a fun place to be with friends. The menu changes often & every pasta dish I've had was very tasty. Can't wait to go back!

Great food, but honestly impeccable service. Post covid its hard to find good service but these was a rare gem of truly thoughtful service. Good clear communication, constant checkin, overall very satisfied. The food itself has a feel-good sense of home cooking. & the wine selection is extensive!
