Overall, Tiamo is described as a stylish, cozy Italian spot with standout wood-fired pizzas and generous, well-prepared dishes like burrata pizza and pasta, while noting that portions and prices can be steep and the space is small and sometimes noisy; service is a mixed bag, ranging from attentive and friendly to slow or inconsistent during busy times, with some visits marred by long waits or hurried pacing, especially on special occasions; many guests still plan to return for the atmosphere and solid food, and reservations are recommended, particularly for dinner.
We ordered the tuna tartare, prosciutto pizza, & lamb chops. We also got two alcoholic drinks each.
The tuna tartare was okay. There wasn't a lot of tuna in it though, but I think that if you are new to eating raw fish, you would enjoy this as the creaminess of the sauce & fresh vegetables in it are the dominant flavors.
The prosciutto pizza was also okay. There was a good amount of prosciutto on it, but it is mainly a plain cheese pizza with prosciutto on it. I would not recommend getting this unless you like plain pizza. I would also recommend splitting this with at least one other person as the pizza is quite large.
The lamb chops were very good! They were cooked to the specification requested (medium-well), & the vegetables accompanying it (asparagus, potatoes) were cooked very well.
The service is good. We requested to be reseated to the upper level, which was promptly fulfilled. If you sit by the open kitchen, note that it is VERY hot. The rest of the restaurant is at a good temperature.
The drinks were not very good. In my opinion, they tasted very similar to hand sanitizer (like rubbing alcohol with a hint of fruit).
Overall, I would recommend this restaurant. The lamb chops were a highlight!
We wanted to try a new Italian restaurant & the pictures online looked great . The age group was very very young . ( teens going out on dates , & groups ). Service was great . Our waitress was sweet & attentive . Everything was correct & fast . The food was a real disappointment . I ordered the grilled octopus for appetizer . It was over cooked & rubbery . Lacked flavor & it came sitting on way too much potato salad , that had no effort or imagination put into it . My main course was cavatelli al ragu. Very simple. Bland . Nothing special for the price . My friends ordered each a pizza . Other than the dough being under done , it was ok . They would have sent it back so they can put it back in the oven for a few more minutes . But time was not on our side that day . But excellent service . Too bad the food needs personality & refinement.
La nourriture était vraiment excellente, les pizzas très savoureuses & bien préparées. En revanche, l'accueil aurait pu être meilleur. À notre arrivée, on nous a placés au bar, juste devant l'endroit où les pizzas sont préparées - ce qui générait beaucoup d'odeurs. Nous avons demandé à changer de place, mais la personne à l'accueil n'a pas été très aimable. Heureusement, un autre membre de l'équipe a pris le relais, a été très professionnel & nous a installés confortablement. Merci à lui pour le service.
Vous cherchez un resto Italien qui sert du Pizza au Four Bois & une place pour un Happy Hour 5 @ 7 au plein Centre-Ville de Montreal, allez
Chez Tiamo! Son menu est tres simple, seulement 1 page, rien de complique. L'accueil, le service, le decor, le pizza simplement magnifique
(si la croute etait moins epaisse & plus de sauce @ ce moment encore meilleure).
Je ne recommande pas de commander
la pieuvre grillee; la qualite & la texture de
la pieuvre n'etaient pas la meilleure. J'etais tres decue de ce plat. J'ai adore le' playlist' du DJ par contre la musique etait beaucoup trop forte. Je vous conseille fortement d'appeler pour une reservation & d'y aller en grand groupe de 6 @ 8 personnes pour partager ensemble en bonne compagnie
les differentes sortes de pizza du menu.
Les places sont limitees & je vous suggere de demander pour une belle table au
2e etage car cette section est plus confortable sans se faire constamment deranger par le service alors fais vite d'appeler & reserver votre table en avance. Merci pour le bel accueil! Bravo @ l'equipe Tiamo!
Phenomenal food & incredible experience!!! The Prosciutto Pizza was unreal!!!! One of the best pizzas we have ever had!!! We also had the Octopus & Cesar Salad that were delicious!! Massive thank you to Lina!!!! Such a wonderful experience!!
We recently dined at TIAMO, where we tried two pizzas & were quite impressed by the food. The pizzas were delicious, with fresh ingredients & well-balanced flavors. The atmosphere of the restaurant was warm, inviting, & interesting, making it a pleasant place to sit & enjoy a meal.
However, there were a couple of service issues that affected the overall experience. First, the cutlery on the table was dirty, & I had to ask for a replacement. While they did respond promptly, this shouldn't happen in the first place. Secondly, I was mistakenly served someone else's order, which was then quickly taken back with an apology after about a minute.
Despite these service hiccups, the quality of the food & the ambiance stood out.
Me & my friends sat at the bar & I had an excellent Burrata pizza with the meatball entree. The decor & ambiance is young & fun. Also want to give a shout-out to Sofia the bartender who brought a super fun vibe & really enhanced our fun experience.
EDIT: The owner was very kind & reached out. I received a refund which was very appreciated. Thank hou for making it right. Unfortunately we were pretty disappointed with our time here tonight from the prices, to the food & the service. We got the fettuccini Alfredo which was extremely small for $25, tasted bland & was not creamy, however the pizza I had tasted good. Now the drink prices were a shock for us. $5 for the tiniest cup of coca cola & $12 for a Shirley temple (which is just sprite snd grenadine). So essentially we were charged $7 for a tiny squirt of grenadine?! We also got two so $24 but would have never even gotten one if we knew the price would be outrageous. Lastly the service was slow. It took about 30 minutes to get our bill & the place isn't big so not very busy so unsure why it took that long. It also took awhile to get the second Shirley temple & by time we received it we were already done eating. Safe to say we left unhappy & felt like our money was wasted :(
Woooowweeee this was the best authentic Italian I have had in a LONG time. They brought out bread while we waited for our food & it was to DIE for. I ordered the pizza & it's a huge portion & tasted soo so good. Definitely want to come back!!
We dropped in one evening in search of a cocktail after having dinner elsewhere & were taken care of very professionally by mixologist Bianca & her very able assistant Fatim. The old fashioned was perfect & the Alto Amati was delicious, & served with such flair. So we returned the next week to have a meal there too. We sat at the bar & were again dazzled by the Bianca/Fatim team - the food was great too. My buratta pizza was excellent & my date really enjoyed the fettuccini Alfredo.
Un bel endroit, une décoration paisible & chaleureuse. Les employés sont aimables. Nous avions tous pris des pizza différentes & des pâtes. & tout était succulent. La pizza cuite au four de bois était excellente, une cuisson parfaite & le fromage était frais. Overall une belle expérience. Je recommande.
