Tiramisu delivers a precise synthesis of Italian culinary traditions and Japanese precision within a high-energy architectural space. The menu emphasizes structural contrasts, pairing hand-stretched pasta with delicate raw fish preparations and artfully executed crudos. Guests encounter a fusion concept where traditional starch-based comfort meets the clean, umami-forward profiles of Tokyo-inspired seafood techniques. The kitchen maintains rigorous standards for ingredient sourcing to support a diverse selection of appetizers and shared plates. High-gloss surfaces and theatrical lighting define the atmosphere, mirroring the duality of the dual-continent culinary influence. This establishment serves as a focal point for those seeking a modern interpretation of Mediterranean and East Asian flavors prepared with technical consistency. Every dish highlights the intersection of two distinct food cultures through a calculated and methodical approach to plate assembly and flavor layering.
Tiramisu is widely recognized for its beautiful, chic, and inviting atmosphere, making it a popular choice for both casual dinners and celebratory group events in Montreal. Many guests praise the creative fusion of Italian and Japanese cuisines, particularly highlighting the high quality of the pizzas, tartare appetizers, and the signature tiramisu. While a significant portion of the clientele reports outstanding, attentive service and a friendly, professional staff, experiences can be inconsistent. Some patrons have noted challenges with long wait times, occasional errors in order accuracy, and smaller portion sizes, while others have expressed frustration regarding rigid reservation policies and mandatory gratuity structures for larger groups. Despite these mixed reports, the restaurant remains a highly recommended destination for those seeking unique flavor combinations, expertly crafted cocktails, and a stylish environment.
Tiramisu hits a lot of the right notes with its outstanding pizza & cdmx design, but the food & service execution can be uneven. The ambiance is great, blending a mid-century italian aesthetic with sleek Mexico City design elements that create a very cool & visually stunning space.
The Mortadella pizza was excellent, featuring a well-blistered crust, & paired nicely with a solid wine selection. However, the pasta side of the menu missed the mark; our vodka sauce pasta arrived noticeably dry, & after a clunky back-&-forth between the kitchen & our server about whether to fix the dish or remove it from the tab, the second attempt still came out improperly cooked.
Would go back for the mortadella pizza & wine alone.
Je déconseille fortement le poulet, il est juste servi avec de la sauce tomate & des pommes sèches quasiment brûlées. Globalement la cuisine y est fade
Got a reservation a week in advance for 16 people, waited 15min to get seated upon arrival even though the restaurant was empty. Waited 1h to finally order our food. Our pizza was 50% crust & half of it was burnt. Our pasta bol was 28$ : it was tiny, contained 2 small pieces of meat, tomato sauce was sour just like the cheap ones at IGA. Atmosphere was nice but overall very underwhelming experience for the cost of 120$ for 2.

We tried out this new place yesterday, the ambiance was quite chill but the decor was really nice, perfect place for a date night. Our server was nice, refilling our glasses of water constantly during the evening which we liked; he made our drinks & they were really good. We tried the polpettes, fritto misto, & arancini tartare for appetizers. Polpettes were delicious, sauce was tangy & umami, fritto misto was fine but skippable, & arancini tartare was good, but i suppose that'beef tartare crispy rice' would be a better description name, because the rice was not similar to an arancini whatsoever; still good tho. Portions are a bit smaller, but it is expected for that type of restaurant. Our beef shishito pizza was really good, especially topped with their house chili oil/spread with sesame seeds. Cesar salad was fine, nothing of the ordinary. Overall, i'd come back here, but probably mainly more for their fusion pizzas, because the flavor options were interesting, & their pizza oven makes for the best type of fluffy, slightly charred pizza crust.
Nice evening dinner was delicious
The appetizers were med
Salad was over dressed
Pasta could have had more sauce
Pizzas were great!!
Good blending of Japanese & Italian
This is one of my favourite Italian restaurant & is surprising considering that it is a fusion restaurant with also Japanese cuisine. Pizza is one of the best I had in the city, dough, ingredients & portion, all at a really good price. Pasta also seemed like a safe choice, the Caesar salad had a great sauce & just slightly grilled enough to give it a tasty smoky flavour, meal finished with the tiramisu that you can't miss.
Overall a very nice experience, good food & service. The mushroom truffle pizza was exceptional & the beef carpaccio was delicious. Very interesting fusion of flavours which worked perfectly except in the caccio e pepe. Unfortunately the sauce felt clumpy & the miso didn't add to it. Highchair available for baby, but do note there is no children's menu.
I sat at the bar & the service from the bartender was excellent. I only stopped here for a late night snack & night cap. Like some other places in the area, the bar selection was fair. I could find something I wanted but the selection wasn't vast. I ordered the fried eggplant appetizer & it was super rubbery. That was really disappointing as far as fried eggplant goes. The sauce had good flavor but the texture really bummed me out. No complaints otherwise
On part de Granby pour aller souper où dîner au Tiramisu. Pour les Coeliaques comme moi, les gnocchis sauce à la crème, champignons & huile de truffe, extraordinaire. Aucun gluten dans ce plat. Toujours un plaisir d'y retourner....
Really aesthetic place for a special occasion or a formal occasion. Staff is hella friendly. Got the focaccia, pretty good, but not a must have. The cacio e Pepe (we customized it to be vegetarian) was fantastic. The noodles tasted really fresh & the sauce was fantastic. A bit light on the pepper though. The gelato was disappointing. Got the tiramisu flavour to avoid the whiskey in the actual tiramisu. I'm not sure if it would be considered gelato, it was not very creamy, & was even a bit icy (might be freezer burnt)
