Overall, a good experience. The pasta is delicious & freshly made. The drinks were served cold & presented well. The service was alright, expected a more consistent & timely experience due to the elevated class of the place. The tiramisu & lemon dessert were great but the panna cotta was not what we expected. The bathrooms are very warm & there are only two stalls. It's a nice ambiance & a pretty spot, love the open kitchen & the bar is cute too. One of the servers, Nico was kind enough to offer us a birthday dessert for our special night, which was a nice touch. Eric was very professional & friendly too.
Fabulous find. Very friendly, cheery, relaxed team. Small menu but absolutely delicious, fresh, made on-site, pasta - quality ingredients that taste out of this world.
Visited 4 times in one week - highly recommend!
We were just passing by this place late afternoon on Saturday (Aug 1). They have a great patio, so we decided to have dinner early. Very friendly & professional staff. I had the Tagliatelle & my wife had a shell pasta dish with calamari. The food was absolutely delicious...honestly the best meal we had while we were in Montreal for 4 nights, & we had many. Caveat...the smoked meat is still awesome too!

Delightful culinary experience ( the pasta is outstanding), attentive service, & an elegant ambiance. The outdoor seating provides an enchanting setting , with a view on the heritage architectural masterpieces of Rue Saint Jacques.
We visited here for lunch before checking in at the InterContinental, choosing it on the spot via Google Maps.
Although the 4.3 rating made us hesitate briefly, we decided to go in because the exterior looked trustworthy & reliable.
The building exterior has a classic Old Montreal charm, & the interior is cozy & beautifully designed, creating a wonderful atmosphere. They also have an outdoor patio space, which looks great for dining during nice weather.
The lunch menu was reasonably priced & the portions were satisfying. The appetizers were pleasant, & the fusilli pasta course was a bit salty, but still delicious. The main filet mignon steak felt like finding the best tenderloin steak of my life. It was cooked to a perfect medium-rare, & the meat was incredibly tender & pillowy soft.
The service from the staff was welcoming & polite. It is recommended Italian spot near the hotel.
Unfortunately, our experience was disappointing. The food took quite a while to arrive, & when it finally did, half of the dishes were cold & had to be sent back to the kitchen. For the price point, especially with pastas around $38, the quality did not meet our expectations.
That being said, the service team handled the situation professionally. They were very apologetic throughout the evening & kindly offered us dessert as a gesture of goodwill. While I appreciate their efforts to make things right, the food itself fell short of what we expected.
I personally really enjoyed my fish (linguini scampi). It was rich & creamy & the scampi was fresh & not rubbery at all. I went for a party with some friends & two of them both felt sick after eating. One of my friends ordered the taglionini & they were soo salty she only had a few bites of her meal & had a stomach ache the rest of the night. The waiter had implied that this was one of the restaurants signature dishes which & it was disappointing. Another friend of mine ordered the carbonara & she enjoyed it much more, but similarly the dish was way too salty & hard to finish. For a restaurant serving $40 pasta dishes you can get better elsewhere. The waiter also tried taking away our octopus appetizer dish when there was still half of it left & didn't even ask before trying to clear the dish. Lastly, we had reservations at 8:45 that we made two months in advance & we didn't get seated until 20 minutes later. I had this restaurant in my list for a long time & after finally going, I wouldn't go back & wouldn't recommend it either.
Took the kids here on a Tuesday afternoon & it was honestly one of the easiest family meals we've had in a while. The staff were super welcoming & didn't bat an eye when my youngest made a mess of the table. We ordered the pasta & it was simple, fresh, & exactly the kind of food that pleases everyone without a fuss. We'll definitely be back, probably on our next low-key weekend when we want something relaxed without having to plan too much.
Service started out great but we had multiple people attending to us which made it difficult to know who to ask when we needed something. I prefer to have 1 server per table. The hosts were so sweet & accommodating even when we needed to modify our reservation time last minute. The ambience is great - but the tables & chairs felt a bit flimsy which I found odd. The food was pretty good. The bone marrow pasta was touch dry, but still delicious. The potato tortellini was so rich, but I really enjoyed it. Others claim the portions are small but I felt they were fine. There aren't many options for vegans, but there are some for vegetarians! The highlight was the tiramisu! I don't normally like it, but my friend really wanted it so we gave it a try & this is a dessert I would eat over & over again! Great wine selection.
