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.
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 $7 for chicken then at least put quality chicken in your dish. The rigatoni with ground beef basically tasted like chef boyardee. Wouldn't recommend this place
Best pasta 🍝 I've had in awhile, so yummy 😋. Thank you Ayman for the amazing service & being patient with us 🙏🏻. We tried the Meet & the pick pasta. Both are so yummy 😋. Felt like homemade food. I highly recommend it & definitely coming back 😃
Super bonne expérience ! L'ambiance est vraiment sympa, détendue, & on s'y sent bien dès qu'on arrive.
Les pâtes étaient délicieuses - bien cuites, pleines de saveur, & en bonne portion. Franchement, ça faisait longtemps que je n'avais pas mangé des pâtes aussi bonnes dans un resto.
Le service était top aussi, rapide & sans prise de tête. Le personnel est super gentil & accueillant.
Je recommande sans hésiter si vous avez envie de bonnes pâtes dans une ambiance chill. J'y retournerai sûrement !
Pasta was hot & fresh, & the portions are so generous. Needed take out after a long day on the road & this spot was a short walk from the hotel. Friendly service & seeing the pasta being prepared was a cool touch.
Food is fine, nothing spectacular but decent place in griffintown for pasta. HUGE portions though oh my gosh. Expensive though, 18$ 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
Terrible service. We were left standing while the staff disappeared instead of helping or giving recommendations. They also refused a simple pasta substitution request. Very unhelpful & disappointing experience.
Yum yum yum. I was starving & a giant bowl of meaty pasta was exactly what I needed. The portion size is massive though, so best tackled in teams of 2! I had the minced beef with meatballs.
I visited recently with a friend after seeing the spot recommended on TikTok.
FOOD: Good, but not memorable. The menu is extremely limited: mainly penne pasta with 4 or 5 sauce options. We tried the cream of pesto & a spicy version, both decent & ready in under 5 minutes. We added meatballs & chicken on the side, which I wouldn't recommend. The meatballs were mini sized, dry, & served cold without marinara sauce, while the chicken tasted processed, bland, & not freshly prepared & also cold. There's no alcohol (the available wine is non-alcoholic), & the overall menu is very minimal (no salad, soup, etc). No bread service, & no fresh parmesan or pepper grinder, just chili flakes, ground pepper shaker & a solid chili oil (though the Ikea bottle is awkward to pour from).
ATMOSPHERE: Clean, open, & airy with an industrial, minimalist aesthetic. No music, just quiet. Seating is somewhat limited, with a loft-style second level. The washroom was notably spotless, which is always a good sign.
SERVICE : Underwhelming. Despite the restaurant being quiet, service felt inattentive...we had to ask for everything, from side plates to ice. The overall interaction lacked warmth.Even something as simple as ice...when we finally got it, it was just a few small cubes, which didn't go far with canned drinks.I also found myself wishing the owner featured in the videos had been there, as the experience didn't quite match the energy or care that's portrayed online.
OVERALL: A no-frills pasta spot with generous portions & simple offerings, which likely keeps prices reasonable. It could be elevated with small touches like bread service or wine. Be prepared to walk, as parking in the area doesn't exist.I'm glad I visited & supported a local spot while in town, but it's not somewhere I'd go out of my way to return to. It has potential, but for me, the service & small details made a lasting impression, & not in the best way. No hate...just constructive feedback which I didn't score to harshly on. I do agree with some of the lower scores I've seen in the reviews but I want to give a small business a chance to improve, even if some replies to diners real experiences have been met defensively & with sarcasm & rude comments from management.
