Chez SHNOOPA, un restaurant montréalais spécialisé dans les pâtes fraîches préparées chaque jour, nous croyons que chaque plat raconte une histoire de passion, de réconfort et de tradition familiale.
Guidés par notre slogan — « Les recettes de ma mère » — notre aventure a commencé avec un simple rêve : partager la chaleur des recettes maison avec Montréal, réinventées sous un angle local, créatif et moderne.
Chaque assiette reflète notre dévouement à la qualité, à l’authenticité et au soin. Nos pâtes et nos plats sont conçus pour rassembler les gens, mariant le réconfort de la cuisine de maman à l’esprit de la gastronomie contemporaine montréalaise.
Chez SHNOOPA, nous ne revendiquons pas un héritage — nous le célébrons. Notre cuisine est l’endroit où les recettes familiales rencontrent les expériences modernes, transformant les traditions simples en repas qui dépassent vos rêves culinaires — que ce soit dans notre restaurant ou lors de votre prochain événement traiteur.
Globalement, Shnoopa suscite des éloges pour des pâtes fraîches et savoureuses, des portions généreuses et des prix raisonnables, avec beaucoup qui décrivent une ambiance chaleureuse et propice aux photos ainsi qu'un service sympathique et attentif. La carte des pâtes, y compris la signature Shnoopa et les sauces variées, est soulignée pour ses saveurs marquées, sa texture et l'impression d'une qualité maison, et plusieurs critiques indiquent des portions assez grandes pour emporter. Bien que l'ambiance soit généralement conviviale et détendue, quelques notes évoquent un niveau sonore modéré, des tables serrées ou des retards de service et des aléas de réservation. Néanmoins, les clients affirment vouloir revenir pour les pâtes, la valeur et la convivialité, les variétés à la truffe et à la crème de champignon étant parmi les meilleures et l'expérience globale décrite comme agréable et digne d'une nouvelle visite.
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 !
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.

Absolutely amazing! the best pasta I've ever had! The flavors were incredible, the place is cozy with a great ambiance, & the prices are very affordable. Highly recommend! 🤌
I had a wonderful experience at Shnoopa! We tried both the red sauce pasta & the creamy pesto pasta, & they were absolutely delicious. The flavors were rich, fresh, & perfectly balanced. The portion sizes were very generous - honestly, the quantity was more than expected, which made the experience even better.
The quality of the food was outstanding, & everything tasted homemade & fresh. The restaurant & kitchen were very clean, which is always a big plus. Moreover, the owner Youssef was extremely nice, welcoming, & attentive. His hospitality really made us feel comfortable & appreciated.
Highly recommend this place to anyone who loves great pasta & a warm atmosphere. I will definitely be coming back!
J'ai beaucoup aimé l'expérience ! Les pâtes étaient délicieuses, le service excellent & le serveur très gentil & professionnel. J'ai aussi adoré l'ambiance & la musique. Je recommande sans hésite
Shnoopa is such a great find in Griffintown. The vibe is cozy & clean, the staff is welcoming, & the PASTA is honestly soooo good. Everything was fresh & served fast. You can tell they care about quality. Highly recommend !!!!!
I ordered the four cheese pasta to go & it was absolutely delicious! Rich, creamy, & full of flavor. The portion was generous & everything was perfectly cooked. Great quality & great service. Highly recommended!

Excellent restaurant! The food was high quality & absolutely delicious. The service was impeccable, with attentive & fast staff who made us feel very welcome. My children loved it as well, which is always a great sign. I highly recommend this place.
We came to Shnoopa for a date night after having heard great stuff about the pasta! Overall, the experience was fine. We ordered the minced beef rigatoni, four cheese, & shnoopa truffle pasta. The minced beef was truly delicious, the truffle was lovely, however the four cheese one was far too rich, claggy, & very very strong!! & for somewhere that specialises in pasta, it felt pretty overcooked. Portion sizes were great though & we could take away what we didn't finish.
As for the overall atmosphere & vibe - it was very odd. It was very industrial & empty, with odd plastic chairs & strange paintings everywhere! There were also weird plastic vines & solitary plastic plants dotted around on empty shelves. I don't want to be rude at all but the atmosphere just felt really off, it was super quiet, especially as no music was being played until the radio started playing with ads. I'm surprised none of this has been mentioned in the reviews before. Wouldn't recommend for a nice dinner out, probably for takeaway. There's a lot of work that could be done.
Had an amazing time at Shnoopa. The service was outstanding everyone was so kind & welcoming, which made the experience even better. The place has such a friendly, cozy atmosphere that makes you want to stay longer. The pasta was really tasty & full of flavor. Overall, Shnoopa is a great spot with delicious food & top-tier service. Highly recommend
We had a lovely experience! The service was very kind, prices very reasonable, & the food was excellent! the portions are very generous as well- we have lunch for tomorrow now :) Definitely recommend!!

We decided to try this place we had heard about, it did not disappoint! I had the house special & my boyfriend tries the pesto penne & the portions were big, we both couldn't finish it so they gave ua take out bowls. We recommend it ❤?
Don't let the look fool you when you walk in - this is one of the best pasta restaurants I have tried in my life. Great service, amazing food, & super affordable. We couldn't finish our meal. & if you're a wino while eating like I am, they have delicious non-alc options. Highly recommend!!!
