Like in being in Italy, Daniel & his dad including all the staff are amazing!!!! Great service, food & atmosphere!!! Thank you, Jimmy & friends from Ontario.
Amazing food with a server that truly cares about the customers. Felt very welcomed & appreciated. Would definitely come back. For special occasions or just a night out. Has a regular menu but also a menu that changes every 3 days which keeps it interesting. Honestly we let the server decide what we were going to eat & it did not disappoint at all.
1st time there - great food & service. Met Daniel & his dad (Chef Mike) - authentic Italian food, all made there including bread & desserts. Great family run business.
Wow, nous avons été traité comme des rois. Entrée d'escargots, pieuvre, vin blanc. Un délice. Comme plat principal épaule de boeuf braisé pour ma conjointe & moi linguinis aux fruits de mer. Deliciosos. Les desserts sublimes. Le service wow, très bon travail d'équipe dirigé par Daniel. Nous y retourons!!! Rapport Qualité prix très bon.

This evening, my cousin & I dined at Trattoria Bellamore. My first time there. I cannot begin to tell you of the gastronomic experience we had. The evening began with an entre of sausage & peppers with stewed red kidney beans mixed with cuttlefish & with a side of crusty Italian bread to scoop up the deliciousness. That was followed by the most delightful spaghettini with seafood! All seasoned to perfection! The next dish was a lightly cooked whitefish with baby potatoes. Light, airy & delicious! This was capped off with the most fluffy vanilla strawberry cake...we actually had two different cakes, both so so delicious, accompanied by the most perfect cappuccino! Daniel, one of the owners, was the consummate host & server. He delighted us with his inventive suggestions & attention to detail. Michele, his dad who is also the owner & chef greeted us like we were old family friends. You can be sure I will be gracing their doorstep again & again! If you're looking for a warm, welcoming & delicious atmosphere, Trattoria Bellamore is the place to go!
I ordered a tortellini, the sauce was hot but the inside of the pasta was cold. The sauce was very delicious. We tried several items from the menu, they all tasted well. Not a big variety as an italian restaurant (2 or 3 types of pastas & no pizza). It's a small place, & it feels cozy. I think it's over priced as well, we paid 170$ for 2 persons (2 entrees & 2 main courses, no dessert, no coffee, no drinks). You can bring your own wine.

Amazing atmosphere, the food was incredible. The staff were very attentive & friendly. I can't emphasize enough how good the food was. Worth every penny & a drive if you're from the city.

We had the pleasure of trying this amazing restaurant yesterday as our little date night! Its so hard to find a nice, cozy, intimate ambience that allows you to bring your own wine in Laval. This is a family owned business that everything is homemade from head to toe; which provides high quality food & freshness especially when all is made daily ..which is so hard to find these days. We were so pleased with service, the sizing of the plates & the presentation of the food. The food was impeccable; that we are still floored of how everything tasted. The owner even came out at the end of the evening to present himself which showed us how they really cater, care & appreciate there guests. My partner & I cannot wait to bring our family here so they can try this hidden gem that deserves so much recognition; highly recommend!! Thank you again Daniel for everything, was beyond what we ever could have expected.
I've been to this gem a few times, from the food to the service A1 ! The owners & waiters were always around making sure our glasses were full & if we needed anything else. It's such a romantic vibe, with the dim candlelights & makes an evening so enjoyable. Will definitely be going again!
