It was warmer than ideal inside, & our pastas were lowkey bland😖 we got the lobster ravioli, chicken alfredo & the Burrard pizza. We went in v optimistic but only the pizza seemed to come any close to our expectations. They've quite a variety of cocktails tho!
I came here to celebrate Father's Day & my brother's 20th birthday. The restaurant has a great atmosphere, & the décor is beautiful. Unfortunately, the food was below my expectations.
I ordered the Carbonara & the Alfredo pasta, & both dishes were quite bland. Not only did they lack flavor, but they also tasted very similar despite being different menu items. Overall, it was a disappointing dining experience, especially for a special occasion.
The food was amazing & the portions were just right. It is so beautiful inside & the service was super quick! Would definitely go back. Loved my pasta (Rigatoni Tiamo) & the tiramisu!
When you walk in you'll think you're at a beautiful 5 star restaurant. The ambiance of the place is wonderful. Service was more than adequate. Then you get to the real problem which is the menu. Lacking options & for all of their pasta dishes you'll get 2 pieces of chicken & 3 noodles. Not only is it the smallest portion size I've ever laid my eyes on but it also wasn't all that great of quality either. It left me so unsatisfied I had to go home & make my own pasta just to fulfill the craving that I had. Pizza looked to be a good size though.
We had dinner at Tiamo on Sunday night during F1 weekend with a group of 11 people, & honestly, it was one of the highlights of our trip to Montreal.
With such a big group during a busy weekend, I expected things to feel hectic, but our server Hamza made the entire experience feel smooth, relaxed, & genuinely special. He was so welcoming from the moment we sat down & took care of us all night like we were regulars.
I asked him for his personal recommendations, & without hesitation he suggested his favorite drink & pasta dish. Both ended up being the best things I had all weekend. You can tell he truly knows the menu & cares about giving people a great experience.
The food was amazing, the atmosphere was lively & fun, & what really stood out was the service. Hamza & his team made our whole group feel taken care of, & that kind of hospitality is hard to find. Huge thank you to him & the entire team at Tiamo for such a memorable night. We'll definitely be back next time we're in Montreal.
We came in with no reservation & got sat at the window which was nice. The atmosphere was nice & the decor was modern. The food did not match the outside. I ordered the grilled chicken Caesar salad & the chicken was grilled till bone try. It was like biting into old bread. My boyfriend ordered the fettuccini Alfredo & it was good. The portions are small, there was a handful of pasta on the plate. The waitress was super nice. But while the waitress & the other employees were dressed nicely. The manager was wearing jeans & a t-shirt. Overall ok experience.
We came to Tiamo on a weekend & it was pretty busy, the atmosphere was pretty nice. We ordered the soup of the day as an appetizer, & got a beet soup. It was pretty good, & the croutons added some nice texture. For mains we ordered the Burrata pizza & the Cavatelli Al Ragu. The Burrata pizza was very good, the burrata was very fresh & creamy. The Cavatelli Al Ragu on the other hand was a little too salty & the pasta was a bit too hard. We sent it back & got another one but it had the same problem. However the service was amazing & they even offered us dessert on the house. We got the Tiramisu & the Cannoli which were both very delicious. The service was great & they were very understanding. We would definitely come back.
Sofiane is the best chef & he makes the best pizza in montreal by far
The burrata pizza is one of the best if not the best i've ever eaten
The pasta was delicious
& the bri fondant entree was delicious as well
service was impeccable
Booked a reservation & they are fairly accommodating to our group of 7 with dining upstairs & down stairs. Very aesthetic & cute for photos (lots of mirrors). There is loud music but the playlist was good. Cocktails & wines good, well priced as well. 3 courses & cocktails won't run you up a ridiculous amount.
-Food-
Appetizers: Meatballs are a little dry but seasoned very nicely & have a good taste, octopus very forgettable
Mains: The rosé rigatoni & sausage was one of the best options, good sauce but not a lot of sausage. Ragu veal pasta good but nothing extremely wow. Duck linguine had a fake bacon taste. Will not be coming back for the pastas. All dishes came out pipping hot!!!
desserts: DELICIOUS & the best part of our experience. Even if you don't traditionally like chocolate mousse, like me, i still suggest giving this one a try. The chef creates a decadent twist to this dessert & it was AMAZING. The tiramisu creme was so delicious. At the time of our visit, the dessert of the day was cheesecake. Super creamy & light, maybe just missing a couli.
-Service-
The food runners seemed very young &
confused, not dressed well, & basically slammed the plates on the table. Water was very scarce & wasn't refilled. Old plates stayed on the table even if second courses had come. Wine glasses weren't very shiny & unused ones weren't cleared from the table even if we didn't have much space. Minimal knowledge of the menu. We were not informed of any last calls for the bar & couldn't order more. They were definitely pushing for us to pay quickly & leave even if we hadn't ordered dessert yet. The waiter was still sweet all things considered.
