Siamo Noi, which means “Simply Us,” is a project of the heart. It’s dancing in your kitchen on a quiet Sunday night, with nothing to worry about but your glass of wine and the wooden spoon caressing your pan, bringing to life the phrase “made with love.”
Siamo Noi is our heart in every plate. With many years in the industry, Chef Marco Bertoldini pays homage to classic Italian cuisine while infusing it with a contemporary twist, creating an experience that is both nostalgic and dreamy.
Specializing in handmade pasta, we have designed our menu with the finest ingredients from Italy and Europe, balanced with local products, to offer a decidedly Montreal experience.
Our passion is reflected in every detail of this project, from the imported Italian tiles and wines to our exceptional service. We honor the simplicity and beauty of Italian culture.
Reviewers describe Siamo Noi as an upscale Italian dining experience with beautiful decor and a lively, sometimes loud atmosphere. The menu is praised for authentic, fresh flavors, especially handmade pastas, seafood such as branzino and octopus, and standout starters like burrata and focaccia, with tiramisu prepared tableside earning frequent cheers. Service is widely regarded as attentive, professional, and warm, often complemented by knowledgeable staff, though a few visits note slower pacing or occasional miscommunications when the restaurant is busy. Prices are described as high, with portions sometimes smaller than expected, leading some guests to feel the value does not always match the price, while others deem the experience worth the premium for the quality and atmosphere. The lounge area and speakeasy entrance add to the sense of occasion, and the overall impression is of a culinary journey to Italy, ideal for special occasions or a vibrant night out, with many guests planning to return to explore more dishes and desserts.
The service was impeccable from beginning to end. Gabrielle, who was serving drinks at the table next to ours, kindly took the time to answer our questions about the menu & suggested dishes that we absolutely loved. She was gracious, knowledgeable, & effortlessly professional.
I'm genuinely surprised that previous reviews don't highlight just how extraordinary the Caesar salad is. The lettuce was vibrant, crisp, & exceptionally fresh. The dressing was perfectly balanced, & the pancetta was far superior to what is typically served - flavourful & beautifully prepared.
Another standout was the Maccheroni alla Giovanese. You could truly taste that the pasta was freshly made & cooked to absolute perfection - al dente, exactly as it should be. The generous pieces of veal had clearly simmered for hours, creating a sauce that was rich, deep, & incredibly satisfying. Without hesitation, some of the best pasta I've had.
Our server (whose name I unfortunately didn't catch) was attentive & provided outstanding service throughout the evening. The warm welcome from the owner added a lovely personal touch, & we adored the cozy banquette seating that was assigned to us.
& I almost forgot - the tiramisu is absolutely worth it. Prepared tableside with finesse, it was delicious & perfectly executed.
An exceptional dining experience. We will definitely be back.
We visited this restaurant with another couple last Saturday night, & the experience was exceptional from start to finish. Both the service & the food were truly on another level.
We chose the chef's tasting menu & were treated to some of the finest Italian cuisine I've ever had. Each course was beautifully prepared, showcasing thoughtfully sourced ingredients & introducing us to remarkable flavors.
If you haven't been yet, I highly recommend giving this place a try-you won't be disappointed.
A big thank?you to our waiter Pasha, to Valentina for the outstanding wine pairings, & to Marco for the unforgettable dishes. We're already looking forward to our next visit.

Whether celebrating with the girls, dining with family, or simply sharing a night out with my husband, I truly love everything about Siamo Noi. From the food to the ambiance & the service (thank you Erika☺?), it's just an amazing experience every time! It's elegant, yet their dishes give me a comforting, nostalgic taste of Italian tradition. Thank you to the team of Siamo Noi! I'll definitely be back again soon! 🫶🏼
The staff is welcoming, & service was great. The food is average, dishes 7-7.5 rating on 10, my favourite was the prosciutto pizza, & linguine Alfredo. The pizza is tiny (probably the smallest pizza i seen in my life 😂). The decor & vibe is nice at this restaurant.
The place delivers across the board. Both the pasta & meat dishes are good & well executed, the cocktails are good & the wine list is strong. Service is solid & professional, even when the restaurant is busy-which it almost always is. The décor is beautiful & adds to the overall experience. Pricey, but in line with other high-end Italian restaurants in the city.
I ordered the Ravioli di Zucca e Ricotta, & I can honestly say it was the best decision I've made in 2025. This restaurant is incredible. The ravioli were soft, buttery, & packed with flavour, super rich, comforting, & absolutely delicious.
My mom chose the Filetto al Porcini, & you could immediately tell the quality of the meat. Knowing it's Canadian, sourced from Alberta, made it even better. My stepdad went with the Cavatelli all'Onda, & it was perfectly balanced & deeply flavourful. Overall, the prices truly match the quality of the dishes - everything felt thoughtful & well executed.
For dessert, we shared the tiramisu & the key lime. The tiramisu was the standout, especially since it's homemade & prepared in front of you, but the key lime was still excellent & full of flavour.
The service was flawless. Our server, Lucca, was attentive, warm, & professional, & the staff bringing out the plates already knew exactly who had ordered what - a small detail, but one that really impressed me.
The only downside I'd mention is the noise level. Even though the restaurant has a stunning aesthetic with beautifully painted ceilings, it can get quite loud. That said, the ambiance is still wonderful & the overall experience was outstanding.
Pleasant contemporary decor. Dishes & appetizers were good overall. Service was gracious & attentive. Overall prices are high for Italian fare. Beware: extremely loud ambiance..... cafeteria-like..... need to speak loudly for you to be heard over the room & music.

Great service from the staff & phenomenal food. Pasta are artisanal & delicious; I highly recommend the ravioli, funghetti & genovese. Best lamb chops in the city as well. Their dishes derives from authenticity & are artistic. Cocktails & drinks are made with love & effort.
The food was not bad, loved the tiramisu but i was so full so said to our server we'll take it to go.. we paid went to the bathroom waited for our coat & they never brought our tiramisu & I forgot about it till I was home -.-
Service was a bit slow & thats why I couldnt have my tiramisu 😭
Also didnt liked how they snatch the empty dishes.. we ordered pizza, it was the last piece I took it to take a bite & put it back (as I had pasta in my plate & no other plate to put my pizza,) & as I was biting in the pizza the server just took the pizza plate & couldnt say because my mouth was full.. Hate that they take everything before we're done eating!! Dont do that!!
Overall the food is great & the ambiance is nice!
Went for a casual diner with my wife on a Tuesday night, food was amazing, great decor, especially the excellent service we received from Ayman, very professional & kind, all the dishes he recommended was absolutely delicious, will go back again!
I really wanted to love it here. The pasta was really good, the portions were decent & the decor was stunning, but I will not be going back. I initially asked to be seated at Bar Limone (in the basement of the restaurant) & the hostess, who wasn't able to communicate in English, instructed us to go down by elevator. Once we got out, the bar was completely empty & there was no staff. We therefore went back up to the restaurant & couldn't understand why we were sent down to the empty bar when it was clearly closed. Once seated, our waiter was very hard to understand, didn't speak clearly or enunciate, & was slightly arrogant & unfriendly. When I asked about certain ingredients in the dishes (due to intolerances), I was told by way of answer'we are a high end restaurant miss'. Needless to say, that unfortunately did not answer my question. Once we ordered, the waiter asked us to repeat our order multiple times, instead of writing it down. Our Siamo Noi martinis, which we ordered with gin, were so bad we didn't drink them & when we mentioned it to our waiter, he was curt with us & didn't offer any solutions, despite them being a'high end restaurant'.

Absolutely amazing & gorgeous decor. The service was phenomenal in the food was amazing.
Very delicious authentic Italian & French food. I would highly recommend the mortadella pizza & the fish & pasta dishes were great.
For dessert the tableside tiramisu was great!!.
Stepping into Siamo Noi is akin to being whisked away to the sun-drenched coasts of the Mediterranean, all without leaving Montreal. Our recent visit, centered around Chef Marco's inspired chef's menu, wasn't just a meal; it was a transcendent culinary journey that has already etched itself into our collective memory as an experience we'll be recounting for years to come.
From the very first exquisitely presented course, it was clear that Chef Marco possesses a rare talent for not just preparing food, but for translating inspiration directly onto the plate. Each dish was a vibrant testament to his profound understanding & passion for Mediterranean flavors, a delicate dance of fresh ingredients, aromatic herbs, & bold spices that sang with authenticity. The progression of the menu was a masterclass in pacing & balance, revealing new delights & surprising complexities with every bite.
What truly set Siamo Noi apart, beyond the impeccable execution of each dish, was the palpable passion that permeated every aspect of the experience. Chef Marco's vision didn't just transpire; it soared, elevating familiar Mediterranean staples to new heights of gastronomic artistry. The collective hum of satisfaction from our table of six grown men, all seasoned diners, was a clear indicator of the magic unfolding before us.
Indeed, the impact was so profound that as we left Siamo Noi, still buzzing from the sheer brilliance of the meal, the immediate, unanimous decision was not to discuss our favorite dishes, but to secure reservations for our wives. This wasn't merely a suggestion; it was an imperative, a shared understanding that this was a culinary experience too extraordinary not to share with those we cherish most.
Siamo Noi has redefined what a Mediterranean restaurant can be. It's more than just a meal; it's an immersion, a celebration, & frankly, a culinary benchmark. If you're seeking an unforgettable dining experience that will leave an indelible mark on your palate & your memories, look no further. You'll be talking about Siamo Noi for years to come.
Really great restaurant! We got the mortadella pizzette which was the perfect appetizer to split between 4 people. I got the cavatelli pasta & it was delicious. Great service our waiter gave us recommendations on dishes & we loved everything he recommended! Will definitely go back here!
This restaurant is truly emblematic of the Montreal food scene & its culinary tradition for excellence.
A new establishment going beyond signature dishes & recognizable names, Siamo Noi focuses on what matters most, the entire experience from start to finish.
The food, absolutely incredible, beautiful with rich flavours. Some nostalgic, like the fettuccini Alfredo & the breaded veal, others, new & vibrant, like the tuna, scallops & the ravioli (just to name a few).
The waiting staff, polished, professional & attentive. The owners, constantly on the floor, making patrons feel as welcome as if they'd enter their very homes. The chef, masterful, creative & humble.
No detail is overlooked as you are treated like an honoured guest & family all at once.
Siamo Noi, an absolute must!

While a pain to find the entrance - once you know, it's OK. Loved the speakeasy type bar entrance on ground level. Elevator up one floor & it's a whole different vibe. Beautiful decor. Superb food! Try the cod & olive to start. As well, the scallop & apple (or was it pear?) Was devine! The focaccia was served with a teeny dollop of green olive tapenade & olive oil - it was jam packed with flavor! Yummy! Pizzas were tooooo gooood! Too many gojd things to mention.. don't skip the key lime pie for dessert! Next time I will try some of the pasta dishes... service was great (thanks Vasili, or was it Gianni??? 😉 )
Montreal has a new star on the dining scene, & it's Siamo Noi. From the moment you step in, you're transported to an effortlessly chic, Cipriani-esque atmosphere-elegant, lively, & undeniably stylish. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply indulging in an unforgettable meal, this is the spot.
The food? Absolutely to die for. Some dishes are simply must-haves:
• The Acciuga & Burro & Focaccia di Recco-so good, we reordered three times.
• The Indivia salad-a perfect balance of flavors.
• The Funghetti pasta-a standout, full of depth & richness.
• The Branzino-cooked to absolute perfection.
• & for dessert? The tiramisu is insane.
Every bite, every detail, every moment at Siamo Noi feels special. An instant classic & hands down the best dinner experience in Montreal.
