Reviews for Shnoopa are polarized, with many patrons praising the generous portions, affordable pricing, and welcoming service, while others express disappointment regarding the use of store-bought ingredients and inconsistent atmosphere. While several customers find the pasta delicious, comforting, and great value for the money, some diners suggest the menu is too limited and lack certain expected amenities like bread service or a wine list. Feedback on the decor and vibe varies significantly, ranging from charming and cozy to industrial and sterile. Although service is frequently described as professional and friendly, some visitors encountered long wait times or inattentiveness. Overall, the restaurant is often recommended as a convenient spot for a quick, filling lunch in the neighborhood, even if some guests feel it does not entirely live up to the social media hype.
I'm so relieved to hear that Schnoopa is only temporarily closed, but I already can't wait for you to reopen.
Schnoopa has become one of my absolute favorite restaurants in Montreal. Every visit has been consistently amazing, & the pasta is, without a doubt, some of the best I've ever had. Every dish is full of flavor, perfectly cooked, & tastes like it was made with genuine passion & attention to detail. It's the kind of food you keep thinking about long after you've left.
What makes Schnoopa even more special is the atmosphere. The team is always so welcoming, friendly, & passionate about what they do, making every meal feel like more than just dinner. It's one of those places that makes you want to bring your friends & family because you know they'll leave just as impressed.
Montreal has no shortage of great restaurants, but Schnoopa truly stands out. It has its own personality, incredible food, & a warmth that's hard to find. That's why hearing about the temporary closure made me so sad I realized just how much I'd miss being able to stop in for my favorite pasta.
I hope the team knows how much they're appreciated & how excited so many of us are to welcome them back. Thank you for creating such an incredible dining experience every single time. I'll be counting down the days until Schnoopa reopens because Montreal simply isn't the same without it.
Don't come here for authenticity, the sauces & pasta are all store bought (we saw the Costco pesto, & a mushroom truffle sauce jar). Same for Shnoopi, unfortunately.
Today I went to this place with my friend after seeing the videos of it online of the all you can eat but turns out it was only available in the first month of opening, which was fine not a big deal.So we ordered our food & it came quickly but we felt sick immediately after eating it & proceeded to throw up right after leaving the restaurant very disappointing wouldn't come back.

The truffle pasta was decent. What was disappointing was when we decided to add chicken for some protein only for the chicken to be from a box (like Jane's chicken) & not actually chicken breast cut up. If you're going to charge an extra $7 for chicken then at least put quality chicken in your dish. The rigatoni with ground beef basically tasted like chef boyardee. Wouldn't recommend this place
Best pasta 🍝 I've had in awhile, so yummy 😋. Thank you Ayman for the amazing service & being patient with us 🙏🏻. We tried the Meet & the pick pasta. Both are so yummy 😋. Felt like homemade food. I highly recommend it & definitely coming back 😃
Super bonne expérience ! L'ambiance est vraiment sympa, détendue, & on s'y sent bien dès qu'on arrive.
Les pâtes étaient délicieuses - bien cuites, pleines de saveur, & en bonne portion. Franchement, ça faisait longtemps que je n'avais pas mangé des pâtes aussi bonnes dans un resto.
Le service était top aussi, rapide & sans prise de tête. Le personnel est super gentil & accueillant.
Je recommande sans hésiter si vous avez envie de bonnes pâtes dans une ambiance chill. J'y retournerai sûrement !
Pasta was hot & fresh, & the portions are so generous. Needed take out after a long day on the road & this spot was a short walk from the hotel. Friendly service & seeing the pasta being prepared was a cool touch.
Une expérience absolument exceptionnelle ! Dès notre arrivée, nous avons été accueillis avec chaleur & professionnalisme. Le service était impeccable, attentionné sans être envahissant. Chaque plat était savoureux, parfaitement présenté & préparé avec des ingrédients de grande qualité.
L'ambiance du restaurant est à la fois chaleureuse & conviviale, ce qui rend l'expérience encore plus agréable. Mention spéciale aux employés pour leur gentillesse remarquable.
C'est sans aucun doute l'un des meilleurs restaurants que j'ai eu la chance d'essayer. Je recommande cet endroit sans hésitation & j'ai déjà hâte d'y retourner !
Food is fine, nothing spectacular but decent place in griffintown for pasta. HUGE portions though oh my gosh. Expensive though, 18$ for eggplant pasta with barely any eggplant or ricotta. Service was fine, maybe a bit slow despite it being empty safe for 4 other people
