Exactly what the neighbourhood needed! A modern taste of Italy.
By far the best cafe crema I ever had. Food was excellent, The Parma is a must try if you haven't already. The fresh quality of ingredients really had me enjoying every bite.
I loved the fact that the food was served in platters, rather than plates & the potatoes were served in little garden pots. Just a different way to be trendy.
A really nice ambiance as well, a great place to take your family & friends for a cute day gathering or a fun night out. Either way, you will not be disappointed.
C'est un endroit super. La nourriture est unique, savoureuse & abordable. Le café est délicieux. Le service est impeccable. J'adore ce resto, on s'y sent bien. Merci!

Was lured in, & my hopes were high.
Second-Cup style ambiance café 😕
Everyone in my party was deceived with the food.
Sandwiches are nothing special. Lacking in ingredients. Hamburger-like bread.
The calabrese is basically a big sausage hamburger, with roasted pepper, mayo, & dry bread! That's it.
Sadly first & last time.
There are much better sandwiches in Laval, especially for the price.
During our visit, we were captivated by the quality & flavor of their menu. The sandwiches, served on schiacciata bread, strike the perfect balance with a crunchy crust & a soft, pillowy interior.
What impressed us most was the generous stuffing of each sandwich, filled with fresh, vibrant ingredients.
& let's talk about the desserts! The conosfolia, with its delightful layers, paired with the luxurious créma di café, created a match made in heaven; it's a combination that shouldn't be missed.
Incredible atmosphere, best in class food options! Fresh ingredients which remind me directly from Italy!! Try their Parma schiacciata, patatine di tropea, crema di cafe & cornetto al pistachio!!!
10/10!! Also two private events & it was fantastic!!
I was really expecting to eat like a' real Italian canadian' the sandwich was ok, but not wow! 20$ & not worth the quality that was serviced. It was a shocker.
Services was great, the person who served me was sweet, offered the creamé di cafe on the house ( 10/10)
We asked for a cottolette sandwich & we were told that it was a generic sandwich, but than again all the sandwich that we toke (3) was generic & not upscale.
First & last time.

i found this place while desperately searching online for a good, local, authentic italian cafe & let me tell you this is a hidden gem! the food is not only delicious, but super fresh, affordable, & the portions are amazing. the staff is super nice & friendly as well, you'll definitely be seeing more of me!
Good variety of delicious sandwiches, lots desserts (gelato, canolis - you have to try the pistachio cream ones - crema di cafe) & so much more. Absolutely lovely staff!! ♥️
I love the idea of an Italian café in Laval! Where I think this establishment is lacking is the location, & the options offered at different times. We went on a Wednesday night at 7 PM. There was nothing left in the display (which would've been nice to see, especially with a new restaurant), & the vibe was dead. We had a cafe crema which was fantastic. We also had a cornetto which casted very artificial/frozen. Nonetheless, I would still recommend this cute spot. & I do plan on coming back to try more of their menu. The staff was courteous & friendly.
