About

Rita focuses on the preparation of authentic Italian cuisine with a specific emphasis on traditional pizza-making techniques. The kitchen utilizes high-quality imported flour and locally sourced seasonal ingredients to construct pies characterized by thin, blistered crusts and balanced toppings. Each dish follows classic flavor profiles, avoiding unnecessary fusion elements to preserve the integrity of regional Italian cooking traditions. The interior environment features a minimalist aesthetic that highlights an open hearth where the intense heat of the wood-fired oven dictates the cooking process. Patrons encounter a direct culinary approach where the texture of the dough and the acidity of the tomato base serve as the primary markers of quality. This establishment maintains a focus on the fundamental elements of Mediterranean baking while ensuring consistent output across every individual serving provided to guests.

Un restaurent que je vous recommande, pour ses bonnes pizzas, ses plats italiens & authentiques, & son ambiance décontractée. Les prix sont raisonable vu la qualité des mets, & le service est excellent. Aucune complainte à part qu'il faut leur demander de ne pas faire trop cuire la pizza, mais le gout, malgré cela était excellent.

It was our first time at Rita & it was an amazing evening. The food was delicious ! We ate the buffarela with veggies, so tasty, we added the foccacia ( very good ), followed by beef shoulder, the meat melt in our mouth & lamb with pasta, the food was so tasty, well seasoned, the waiter very polite & knowledgeable about their dishes. We'll go back for sure.

L'excellente qualité en général du restaurant & la courtoise du personnel sont altérés par la politique de la direction de flipper les tables a la demi heure près . La pression qui s'exerce en ce sens de service est désagréable

Nice room. The underlying theme is family history where Italy blends with trendy & cosmopolitan Montreal. It's a promise that owners want to provide value & a genuine impeccable experience. They master the Neapolitan pizza variations. Marie-Eve, our stewardess, strikes a perfect balance between, information, execution & respectful friendliness. Casual yet professional.

Excellent moment avec ma compagne, restaurant très raffiné, avec des recettes du jours & une carte minimaliste mais efficace (signe de grand qualité). Service impeccable, Marie-Eve a excellé dans sa performance & sa sympathie ! Je recommande fortement. Mini Bémol, le restaurant est un peu bruyant mais les plats vous feront oublier ça.

We came as a group of 4 on a Monday & it was still quite a bustling atmosphere! We had the zucchini pizza special, hot honey pizza, the mushroom ravioli & fried/stuffed morels. Every bite was fantastic & the cocktails were classic/delicious as well. Highly recommend getting a reservation. The staff were lovely.
