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

What a restaurant! I came with my friend Felix last week & we both fell in love with the food at this place! for starters, the service was excellent, we made a reservation for 6:30, we arrived 5 minutes early & within a few minutes we were already seated!.
Pasta & Pizza were on point! 👌🏻 I highly recommend the Verdun hot honey! lovely place! we will definitely come back soon!View more

Rita in Verdun has been one of our go-to spots for the last 5 years, & it's been amazing every single time. It's hard to find a place that not only meets but constantly goes beyond your expectations, & Rita nails it. The staff, many of whom have been there for years, really care about giving you the best experience possible. You can feel their passion, & it makes the whole vibe super warm & welcoming. The kitchen team, led by one of the most down-to-earth & talented chefs in Montreal, deserves a huge shoutout. Every dish-from their fresh salads to their delicious pastas & pizzas-shows just how much skill & love goes into the food. The energy in the restaurant is contagious! you can see how much the chefs, servers, & bartenders enjoy what they do, & it totally rubs off on you as soon as you walk in. The cozy, charming dining room just adds to the overall experience, making it 1 of my top 3 Italian places in Montreal, which says a lot considering how many there are. Whether you're dropping in for a casual dinner or something special, Ritaa always delivers. Big thanks to the whole team for making every visit so great-keep it up!View more

Ce restaurant de type bistro mais à l'italienne, est très populaire & tout le temps plein. Il est donc préférable de réserver. La salle intérieure offre un belle vue sur la cuisine & le four à pizza. Sa terrasse sur la fin de Wellington piétonnière, voisin de Archway est le spot à Verdun. Les portions sont plus que généreuse. Très bonne pâte, cuite à la perfection & très bonne (photo - Upside Down). La pizza pourrait être plus petite par un ou deux pouces de diamètre, facilement. Content de ne pas être conscient des calories du plat. Le plat d'entrée Olives & Lupinis est beaucoup trop pour une personne (deux minimum, trois facile) - faudrait considérer un petit bol pour la moitié prix (6/2=3$). La salle intérieure est très bruyante lorsque le restaurant est plein vues les surfaces réfléchissante (plancher, etc), la cuisine & la musique (dansante) sur le tout. Assourdissant > 80 dBA sans doute. Quoi qu'on puisse se satisfaire de crier pour jaser, ce restaurant pourrait vraiment investir dans la sonorisation. On y voit des panneaux au plafond, mais c'est clairement insuffisant. Ce qui mérite 3 trois étoiles. Le service est très bien. La nourriture également, mais trop. Mais le niveau sonore! Ouf. J'ai hésité de mettre 3 étoiles au final.View more

On nous avait vanté la pizza, donc c'est ce que nous avons commandé. & nous n'avons pas été déçus! La plus originale est sans contredit la Verdun Hot Honey; je pourrais en manger encore & encore sans m'en lasser. Tout aussi notable que la bouffe, c'est le service. On ne veut pas seulement vous servir vos plats gentiment & proprement; on veut que votre soirée chez Rita soit un beau moment. On s'intéresse à vous, on veut vous faire plaisir; même la personne qui débarrasse les tables est chaleureuse & vous parle de la passion qui anime les personnes en cuisine. Alors, oui, on a passé un superbe moment! Attention : réservations de mise le weekend!View more

Beautiful restaurant in Verdun with amiable service. Our food arrived very quickly. The ambiance was amazing. The food was a let down. We had carbonara pasta & Lia Pizza. Pasta was well cooked but it was way too salty. Pizza was soggy due to the tomato sauce, but the ingredients were better, & sadly the crust were super burnt. We did notify the waiter about it. Overall, the experience was fun but the food was below average & overpriced.View more

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!View more

Rita is DELICIOUS! My mouth is salivating just thinking about the food. We had Nonna Lia's cake, the cavatelli with fresh buffarella, & the Verdun hot honey pizza (highly recommend trying the spicy oil on top!) What I really loved too, were the portions. Everything was so fresh, & not too overwhelming. It was just the right amount of food for us. Overall great atmosphere, mouth-watering Italian food, charming back story, & superbe service. I would 100% come back!View more

Une excellente découverte comme resto avec une superbe ambiance! Nous étions 4 personnes avec une réservation à 19:30 & le resto était plein à notre arrivé. Environ 10 min. d'attente seulement & nous étions assis pour une belle soirée avec un repas succulent à la saveur de l'Italie & un service hors pair de notre serveur Pierre Joseph. Nous avons tous pris des entrées soit de saucisse & Rapinis & salades. Comme repas principal Tortellis à la courge & Pizza Verdun hot honey & Marinara. C'était tout simplement délicieux! Le dessert le gâteau à l'huile d'olive était tout simplement succulent & incroyable! L'ambiance du resto est sympatique & très agréable. Nous avons quitté à 22:30 après 3 heures à cet endroit & les tables étaient tounours tous occupées malgré l'heure tardive un Mercredi soir. Réservé à l'avance pour une expérience relaxante, agréable, & savoureuse, vous ne serez pas déçu.View more

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.
