Rita

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

Review Summary

Overall, reviews of Rita describe a warm, inviting Italian spot with a focus on house-made dishes and fresh ingredients, where pizzas, pastas, and imaginative twists are repeatedly praised for flavor and quality. The atmosphere is repeatedly called cozy and charming, with a lively, family-run vibe that many enjoy, though the space can get noisy when busy. Service is often described as friendly, attentive, and capable, with several outstanding mentions of helpful staff, while a minority of reviews note moments of rushed pacing, pushiness, or inconsistent attentiveness. While value is generally seen as fair and meals frequently described as generous and satisfying, some readers point to occasional pricing surprises or a less satisfying takeout pizza. In short, Rita is often recommended for a delightful dining experience with strong dishes and a welcoming vibe, with a few caveats about noise, service rhythm, and occasional menu hiccups.

Delicious food !

Service was top of the line & we've been WAITING to be impress. Feels like the last few years have killed the resto business & also customer service but here, here you are treated like ��

We arrived no reso on a full Thursday evening let the hostess ur # & got a call back 20mins later !

We had the burrata /eggplant, grrrreat, capaccio, ceasar & spicy pizza. Good timing from the kitchen, tasty cocktails (had a gin pepe 🍸) & quality of ingrédients ��

Wellington has lots to offer but I will definitely come back for the rest of the menu.

Merci à Chloé pour cette merveilleuse experience !

Une très belle découverte, un lieu avec beaucoup de charme, des employés aux petits soins avec une finesse notable. La nourriture est excellente avec des aliments qui ont du goût. Ce n'est pas pour toutes les bourses mais le rapport qualité/prix est là. Je recommande le Rita.

Local awesome eatery. RITA is a must go for Montrealers & Verdun locals are sooo lucky to have such an exceptional spot.

Close enough to downtown that anyone visiting montreal should definitly take a stroll on the wellington promenade & have a great meal at Rita's.

C'est dommage de se faire presser lorsque la facture est dans les $$$. La salade est bonne. Risotto assiette trop petite. Croûte à pizza dure bref over rated!
