Tiramisu specializes in Italian cuisine with a Japanese influence (Italian Japanese). The menu focuses on the Italian love for pizza and pasta. Tiramisu offers a festive and relaxed atmosphere and aims to celebrate the mix of varied cuisines found in Montreal. It is the ideal place to eat pizza, discover natural wines, taste sakes and Italian vintages - for any occasion.
Reviews describe Tiramisu as a stylish, welcoming venue with a warm, lively atmosphere and consistently attentive service, where guests enjoy a mix of Italian and Japanese influenced dishes, excellent pizzas, pasta, and cocktails, and a standout tiramisu; the setting and decor are often described as beautiful and cozy, making it a good choice for dates, celebrations, or casual evenings; many diners highlight generous hospitality and a willingness to accommodate dietary needs, while a few comments note slower service, occasional missteps with timing or temperature, and some dishes that fall short of expectations, yet overall the presentations and the dessert in particular leave a strong positive impression and encourage guests to return.
Maybe more like a 3.5, but I am rounding up because the service was impeccable, service & vibe are 5 star, it's the food that was a hit or miss
The meat sauce pasta was lacking in flavour
The margarita pizza was too heavy on tomato sauce & flavour of that sauce was just authentic pizza sauce.
This said the crust was very good, the pecking suck pizza was unique & yummy.
They just need to fine tune some of the dishes, the restaurant really has a ton of potential!
& again, service was AMAZING!

Beau décor. Atmosphère branchée. Délicieuses pizzas & pâtes & l'assiette de charcuteries est delicieuse. Portions de desserts tres genereuses. Carte des vins intéressante. Bon service avec une sommelière bien gentille. C'est assez coûteux mais ça en vaut la peine.
Ambiance très agréable
Le plateau de charcuterie & la burrata sont excellentes
Les pizzas sont très bonnes
Les gelatis moyennes
Le service est agréable pas trop rapide ce qui a l'avantage de nous permettre de prendre notre temps
Went with a friend for dinner - absolutely beautiful decor with moody lighting. Was attended to quickly for drinks, appetizer & main course. Didn't wait too long for the food, refills of water, or the bill. As for the food, really tasty! I got the ragu pasta & my friend got the prosciutto pizza. Would recommend & go again. My only complaint is that the food could have been a tad warmer.

From Saturday Oct. 15. Food was exceptional, service was terrible. Arrived for our 9:30 reservation & promptly seated, then waited almost 20 minutes for service. Hedged our bets by ordering drinks & our meal simultaneously, because service was very slow in our section. (Except for a nearby table of obvious social influences, who received 4 courses during our wait for service.)
Following a further 20 minute wait, our order arrived in this sequence: pizza & pasta, salad entre (we had to ask after this) followed by drink orders.
I think we confused our MIA server when we laughed at the arrival of our drinks - a meal perfectly served in reverse.
Belle découverte. Bonnes entrées, bons cocktails – quoique un peu petits –, desserts corrects, mais Margherita plutôt décevante, car elle ne goutait pas la pizza italienne (la pâte semblait être celle d'une focaccia plutôt que d'une pizza).
Belle expérience au Tiramisu. La nourriture est bonne, les portions généreuses & l'ambiance très agréable. La musique ne nous obligeait pas à crier & le service était très efficace.
Nous avons commandé la lasagne Tonkatsu (très bonne) mais elle est arrivée un peu froide au coeur du plat. Nous l'avons mentionné au serveur. Le manager est venu nous voir, il s'est excusé, a fait remplacer le plat & nous a offert deux cocktails pour s'excuser du désagrément. En parlant de cocktail, le barman (Simon) était très bon & bien sympathique. Il nous a préparé un cocktail hors carte qui valait le détour. À la fin du repas, quand nous avons mentionné que nous étions venus pour fêter l'anniversaire de ma conjointe, ils nous ont en plus offert un tiramisu!
Des erreurs arrivent dans les restaurants, mais ils l'ont corrigé d'une manière élégante. Félicitations
Par ailleurs, la pizza, les arancinis, la lasagne & le tiramisu étaient très bons.
TLDR: The quality & quantity of food do not reflect the price charged. Dinner for 3 people at 8 pm on a Sunday evening. After being told that a quarter of the menu wasn't available & there was no Pizza of the Day, we ordered a sushi rice beef tartare ($18), tuna tataki ($16), & heirloom tomato salad. 15 minutes later, we were informed that there was no heirloom tomato salad, so we took the house salad ($10). About 45 minutes after that, we finally received 3 plates. The quantity of beef tartare served in the dish was 1 heaping tablespoon at most. The quantity of tuna tataki served were 4 small, thin & over-seasoned slices, slathered with half a bottle of raw capers, along with 5 sprigs of salad leaves without any dressing or seasoning. When I asked for salt & pepper so I could dress the salad myself, I received a little saucer of what could only be rock salt that you may use in pasta sauce, but which is impossible to crack without a spice grinder or a hammer. At least the shavings of parmesan on the house salad were edible.
I am a little disappointed, the food did not taste the same, the pizza dough was very dry, the octopus tasted frozen. The drinks didn't taste the same. I don't know if they changed the people in the kitchen & their bartenders. But I left a little disappointed & my friends I went with didn't like the food either. Hopefully it was just a bad day, because the place is beautiful & the staff is very friendly.
Beau restaurant! Personnel attentionné. Repas copieux. Pizza très bonne selon ma famille. L'entrée de shushi arancini était un peu sèche en bouche, j'aurais ajouter au plat la sauce des polpettes (même a l'intérieur des arancini avec le fromage ;-) ) . Les polpettes étaient délicieuses. Belle soirée passée en famille. MERCI!
So disappointed by Tiramisu! So loud you barely hear the person in front of you
Pro: food, cocktails, décor (minus the graffiti) : Cons: LOUD LOUD LOUD
Will not go again.
Chef Chanthy Yen is a master & I wanted to try Tiramisu because he worked on the menu & plates. Overall, I will never go again in this LOUD restaurant. People at other tables were either screaming at themselves, or just stay silent like the table of 5 I could see from my seat.
FOOD: it's a pizzeria with influences of Asian cuisine. Very good plates presentation. & it mix well. The pizza dough was nice & airy, flavors were there, interesting combination of mortadella & truffle oil. I recommend this plate. The Tonkotsu was good, but it missed some punch. Pork meat was dry so a little less cooked would have been excellent. Missing a little spicy flavor that would kick just a little (& I'm not a fan of hot dishes). My favorite dish was the Tiramisu for dessert. Light, great coffee flavor.
Drinks: fair on alcohol, & balance between acid, sour, umami & sweet. Definitely you have to try one cocktail.
Ambiance: there is a DJ playing music you could hear on a fashion defile. Loud, rhythmic, & after 2h, you're feeling you've heard quite same song since the beginning. The décor is modern, with concrete surfaces that enhance echo. People come here for drinks & food & get to shout at their friends / partner to be heard. We came at 7, sound was 82dB. At 8pm, it averages 87-88dB. Improvement required here.
Great ambiance & spaces. The foods was delicious & the staff very accommodating since I came early in the evening around 5 pm. I would try their wooden pizza next time 😋. The portion of the pasta is quite reasonable & the sauce is very tasty. All the elements of the flavours is quite rich & I would recommend. 👍
I went with a girl friend, ordered Tuna Tataki & Endive salads as starters. They were ok, borderline a bit disappointed as the salad had bitter after taste & the tuna was lacking flavor.
We had the Duck pizza & Carbonara pasta. They were both good, the pasta texture was just cooked right, not too salty. It is a new flavor to have Pékin roast duck on a pizza, & it paired up well with their in-house habanero sauce.
The wine list offers great choices for bottles or glasses. I enjoyed my Pinot Grigio very much, & reasonable priced.
Finally, I gave a 4 stars because our waitress saved the experience as she did ask our feedback about the starters, & we expressed our disappointment. She was attentive & listened to our comments. It was very well appreciated given how hard it is to hire staff right now. It's a nice Happy Hour place, but I would say I had better Italian fusion dinner elsewhere.
