Très bon moment que nous y avons passé. Merci à Daniel pour son excellent service & que dire des plats, tout était parfait. Nous le recommandons fortement.
Food was fantastic! Amazing quality & service. There were so many delicious meals to choose from. I also loved the ambience! A must try, you will not be disappointed!
Excellent service & fantastic meal! Chef Mike & Daniel, the manager, were extremely kind & generous. 10/10, highly recommend! Best Tuna I have ever had, will definitely be coming back.
Nous étions un gros groupe & tous ont passé une excellente soirée. Allant de l'antipasti, au jarret d'agneau & aux côtes de boeuf, tout était délicieux. Les portions sont plus que généreuses & l'ambiance est intime (enfin un bon restaurant où on s'entend parler!). Mais outre la cuisine, ce qui distingue ce restaurant est le service. Daniel a su nous offrir un service hors pair, répondant à nos questions & modifiant même un des plats pour respecter les restrictions alimentaires d'une des invités. Je recommande ce restaurant sans hésiter & c'est certain que nous y retournerons!
First of all let me start by saying the food was AMAZING !! & it was a bring your own wine so double points for that!. The thing the restaurant needs to work on is their booking process which was a bit too complicate for nothing. You have to state the hour you prefer & then the owner or whoever is responsible sends u back an email to confirm if what you want is available. Normally all the other restaurants you book, you go online & there's a set of hours available. It takes 2 minutes to do instead of their system where you have to wait 24 hours to know if your reservation was accepted. & since they only have 2 sets of hours on the weekend. 6h00 to 8 pm or 8h30pm til 10h30, if you pick the early dinner you will feel rush. The servers were constantly passing by our tables (they were very polite though) & we didnt have much time to enjoy our evening as they asked us to leave on the dot! We had to finish our convos in the car. Anyway, if you want to have a gastronomic italian experience its very good but it is not the place to chill for a long time.

I recently dined at Trattoria BellaMore, & I must say, it was a disappointing experience. The food was ok but nothing to write home about, especially considering the exorbitant prices. The antipasto to share was a whopping $120, a price far too steep for what we received. Furthermore, the atmosphere was excessively noisy, making it difficult to enjoy the meal or hold a conversation. Adding to the disappointment, the waiter's demeanor bordered on rudeness, leaving a sour taste in our mouths. My advice? Steer clear of Trattoria BellaMore unless you enjoy overpriced food & a less-than-pleasant dining atmosphere.

I consider myself a foodie. Cooking enthusiast, & had the privilege of eating at many top-rated restaurants around the world. Tonight's dinner at Bellamore blew me away. Tied for best meal of the year! From the homemade gnogghi bursting of flavor, to the veal in a bisque sauce with scallops, to a beef rib melting in my mouth, yet with a crispy exterior... We cleaned the plates with the sliced bread. & byow?! Wow! Mille grazie to Daniel & his chef, we shall be back!
Very friendly & cozy environment, service was fast & efficient, food was excellent, nice presentation, perfect temperature. Unfortunately it was a slow night, so not many customers. This restaurant deserves more attention. They are a rare breed in Laval. Thank you Daniel & Family, it was a great evening!
