What an amazing experience! We came from London, Ontario for a vacation, & I was really craving some good Italian food. We came across this restaurant, saw the great variety on the menu, & decided to give it a try - & I'm so glad we did!

The Vegetariana pizza was absolutely delicious. The dough was beautifully thin, soft, & perfectly cooked, & the toppings were fresh & full of flavour. Every bite was so good!

The pasta was another highlight - incredibly creamy, rich, & full of flavour. I genuinely loved every bite of it. We also tried the Spaghetti Pomodoro, & it was fantastic. The sauce was juicy, fresh, & tasted like it was made with real tomatoes, which made such a difference. Simple, fresh ingredients done really well!

The service was amazing from beginning to end. Everyone made us feel welcome, & we truly enjoyed every moment of our visit.

The atmosphere made the experience even better. They even had people performing live music, which added such a warm & lively Italian vibe to the restaurant. Great food, great service, & a wonderful atmosphere all in one place.

If you're craving authentic, flavourful Italian food, this place is definitely worth trying. We came in hoping for a good Italian meal & left extremely happy & satisfied. Would absolutely come back again! 🇮🇹🍕🍝❤?

Excellent Italian restaurant in Old Port! The food was fresh, flavorful, & beautifully presented. The pasta was cooked perfectly, & the atmosphere was warm & inviting. The service really stood out as well-if you visit, ask for Yassine, who is friendly, attentive, & makes sure you have a great experience. Overall, one of the best Italian dining experiences in the area. Highly recommended!

I had a really disappointing experience at this restaurant. The pasta sauce tasted like it was right out of a can. There was no cheese, & the pasta didn't taste fresh. My friends got the pizza, & it was also nothing special. We were there with a big group, & the service was at least decent & they brought our food fast.
However, the owner or someone working there came over & asked us to leave a positive review in exchange for a free tiramisu. It really felt like a tourist trap, especially considering the price. I paid about $37 for one bowl of pasta, & it just wasn't worth it. I would not recommend this place.

A masterclass in Italian simplicity! The linguine was perfectly al dente, tossed in a silky, golden emulsion of olive oil & garlic. The garlic was sliced thin & toasted to a sweet, mellow finish-no bitterness at all.
?With just the right kick of red chili flakes & fresh parsley, this dish proved that you don't need a heavy sauce to make a massive impression. Highly recommend if you appreciate authentic, well-executed fundamentals.

We were a group of 6. While having some issues withe order mix up with order but- the food did not disappoint. It was fresh & tasty. Chicken dish was exceptionally good. Pizza was also good. We had a mix up with the order but the establishment was sincerely apologetic & did care to make their customer happy by offering concessions. Would recommend.

Stopped into Trattoria Gio on your last day in Montreal. The atmosphere was very nice. They have outside dinning as well as their main dining room. I loved the copper pipe decor in the back. The food was very delicious. The sauce was definitely one of the better ones in the city. The presentation of the plates could be better. I feel like with the quality of taste they should have fresh parsley as a garnish not dried, & a better parmesan cheese available. Overall I recommend this restaurant for classic Italian cuisine.
