Trattoria Gio offre une cuisine italienne solide, des pâtes et pizzas bien exécutées, des pâtes fraîches et des sauces savoureuses, et une ambiance animée mais accessible dans le Vieux Montréal. Selon les avis, les plats sont généralement savoureux et bien préparés, avec des mentions de linguine al dente, burrata, bolognaise et une variété de plats qui plaisent au plus grand nombre. Le service est souvent salué pour la chaleur et l attention, bien que plusieurs visiteurs signalent des expériences plus lentes et incohérentes, des erreurs de commande et des prix élevés par rapport à la valeur. L'ambiance globale associe chic décontracté et convivialité familiale, en faisant un choix populaire pour les groupes et les célébrations, et de nombreux clients disent revenir pour les saveurs et l'accueil. Le lieu est décrit comme accessible avec une bonne ambiance et des options de terrasse, et bien que certains estiment l'expérience correcte mais pas exceptionnelle, d'autres soulignent des soirées mémorables et un sentiment d endroit spécial dans le Vieux Montréal.
From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere felt warm, authentic, & inviting. A big shoutout to server, Emmie who was incredibly welcoming, attentive, & genuinely made me feel at home.
The food was outstanding. Chef Dali truly knows what he's doing. The Penna Alla Gigi he recommended was exceptional - perfectly balanced flavours, rich yet not overwhelming, & clearly made with care & expertise.
Overall, everything about this place: the food, the service, & the atmosphere was top-tier. The staff really elevated the entire experience & made it a solid 5-star visit. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a great Italian experience.
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.

The food here is absolutely amazing! The bruschetta & fries were super delicious, & the pizza was just divine. The service was impeccable, staff were very polite & attentive. Everything was prepared perfectly, & the quality of the food was excellent. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a great italian restaurant! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Far from Italian food or even good food. Pizza that seemed frozen & pasta that was tasteless & sticking together. It is just a quite expensive tourist trap. Very disappointing.
Good food, good service, & great place for rest after old sight seeing at old port. Food is not super crazy but the quantity is good. *Venue: cute patio at old port plus a large space inside. We were looking for a place to eat lunch & rest after a long walk at downtown in a hot weather. The large space inside with good air conditioning lured us inside. The theme is Italian which was cute but they played latin music which was a bit unfit🙃 *Food: good portion, good quality, okayish taste. We ordered one arugula salad & pasta dish for two hungry people. We were quite satisfied with the portion. Salad taste was amazing. Pasta taste was very ordinary. We also ordered white wine, we got very small amount fod the price which was a bit disappointing 🙃 *Service: good & friendly staff but a bit slow service. *Price: I think it is a bit overpriced but so are the restaurants in the neighborhood.

Trattoria Gio is a very nice Italian spot in Old Port with very courteous staff & good food! I ordered the Caprese pizza & mojito & both tasted yum!! The mojito was a bit sour for my taste but the staff was able to accommodate my request & adjust it accordingly. Overall, good experience! 😊
If you grew up with an emotional bond with Italian food &/or pasta is comfort food for you, this place is your go to spot. I don't have either relationship with these foods so it was just good spaghetti. The calamari was pretty good. The live music was fantastic so we chose the patio.
Picturesque location, nice staff, excellent decor, & good food. Italian food, as the name suggests. Walked in for a quick bite, pizza & calamari fries. Good enough to order another round. Both indoor & outdoor seating available.
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.

When I decided to take my boys to a late dinner at Trattoria Gio I expected that the food would only be mediocre, since the location would be perfect for a tourist trap. The service was friendly & attentive however the food was as expected: underwhelming. I bet that the pizza they serve is frozen. I'm not complaining about this, as mentioned, it met my expectations. The reason I'm writing this are all the raving reviews about this great Italian food. Folks, you can definitely have a good time at this place but great Italian food is not what is being served here.
