Siamo Noi offers a visually stunning and upscale dining environment that is frequently praised for its high-quality ingredients, particularly its fresh handmade pasta, exquisite Caesar salad, and tableside tiramisu. Many patrons highlight the exceptional service provided by specific staff members, often noting the welcoming atmosphere and attention to detail. However, the restaurant faces consistent criticism regarding its elevated price points relative to the small portion sizes, as well as an ambiance that many find excessively loud and occasionally pretentious. While some diners enjoy the vibrant energy, others report inconsistencies in food quality, service delays, and issues with reservation management, suggesting that the experience can vary significantly depending on the timing of the visit.
Comment dire, un restaurant italien un peu trop cher, mais avec des plats tres gouteux! J affectionne leur pizza a la mortadelle & pistache. Cependant notre service fut tres lents malgre le peu de d achalandage. Le restaurant est magnifique tres cossus, mais vieilli vite. Les menus sont deja tous grafignes & collants. Une place utile si vous etes un gros groupe. Le tiramisu monte a la table est une belle experience. Mais pour de la nourriture traditionnelle italienne, le prix est tres haut.
Came on a Monday night & it was just absolutely exceptional. Shared the Caesar salad & pizza with my friend & just wow! One of the best Caesar salads I've had. The margherita pizza was extremely fresh & the dough was perfection.
For our mains I got the cavatelli which was incredible & my friend loved her maccheroni.
The HIGHLIGHT of the night was definitely the tiramisu. Definitely worth the $38 if you're a group of 3-4. We were only 2, so we brought most of it home, & somehow it tasted even better the next day. Truly the best tiramisu in Montreal. It was such a fun experience to see it being made in front of us.
Although the food was overall acceptable, the experience was honestly quite disappointing-especially for a place that presents itself as fine dining.
The tuna appetizer was excellent & definitely the highlight of the meal. Unfortunately, everything went downhill from there. The veal lasagna was still frozen at its core. Literally straight from the freezer to the plate, which is inexcusable at this level.
On a previous visit, I asked for half a pound of mixed cold cuts & was told they only serve mortadella… on pizza. That raises a serious question-what kind of Italian restaurant doesn't offer basic items like prosciutto, salami, sopressata, capicollo, pancetta ? & if you already have it in-house for pizza, why not sell it to-go? It just doesn't make sense.
As for the tiramisu, it came with a nice presentation, but the ladyfingers were as dry as the Sahara dessert most of the coffee ended up spilled across the serving tray instead of being absorbed where it should be.
To top it off, the ventilation is a real issue... it's a joke I left the restaurant smelling like I had just worked a shift at La Belle Province-not exactly the fine dining takeaway I was expecting.
Overall, acceptable food at times, but far from a fine dining experience.
Amazing experience! The food is absolutely wow. The fresh homemade pasta is delicious, the pizza is extra tasty, a real treat! The tiramisu is even made right in front of you, which makes the experience even more special. & the alcohol shots are huge, USA style! Honestly, I highly recommend this place. We will definitely be coming back!
Great place for a special occasion. The food was incredible. The best pasta & pizza we've had in years. I was concerned about how kid-friendly is was going to be & we were pleasantly surprised. They had high chairs & kids menu. Thank you for that! Because it was a bit noisy, it was perfect for dining with kids because we didn't feel pressure to keep them super quiet. We all had a great time. It's also vegetarian-friendly.
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.
Heard of this place from a few friends & a buddy & I decided to try it. Decor is impressive & quite airy. Waiters are smartly dressed. Place is a bit loud so you will need to be aware of that. We both shared the mortadella/ pistachio pizza & it was good. It's a mini pizza so not the traditional 12' but closer to 8or 9'. The toppings were generous & the dough was good but there was something missing. We enjoyed it but something needs to be added to'spice up' the flavour. We also shared the branzino which had crispy skin & was excellently prepared. We also really enjoyed the gramigna genovese which was delicious. The braised veal was tender & flavourful. Although the service was friendly, it was definitely lacking. After the waitress explained that the menu is geared towards sharing, when we received our food, no additional plates were provided. Once we mentioned this, cold plates were quickly delivered. We explained to the waiter that the moment we put our hot food in these plates, our food will become cold. Hot plates arrived shortly thereafter. Not once did any of the waiters who served us ever come to us & ask us how our food was! We needed to ask for our water glasses to be filled. Thankfully the delicious food prevented this evening from being too frustrating. Had trouble getting out bill since our waitress seemed very busy & never saw us flagging her down. Congratulations go to the kitchen staff for their delicious food but service needs to keep up with the quality of the kitchen staff. Would recommend & hoping that these issues are being worked on.
