Cozy family run Italian restaurant. The pasta dishes were amazing & everything tasted fresh. Very lucky to have stumbled upon this restaurant.
The food was amazing took me just back where I wanted to be with the Ravioli!
Last night I ordered a pizza for pickup from La Villetta. Somehow mistakes were made & I was given the wrong one. I consider this more my fault for not checking it before leaving the restaurant but when I got home I called them & they sent their delivery person to my door with a fresh pizza. This kind of service is really not common & I really appreciated it. After all of that I sat down & ate an amazing pizza I highly recommend it. Toppings plentiful, well done like I asked. Will definitely be going back. Reasonable prices in this economy too make it extremely worth it.
August 2025 update: the picture was added to show how perfect my pizza was tonight. This restaurant never disappoints me!!!
I've been to the restaurant twice so far. Last year, the food was a letdown, but this year it was good.
For starters, I had the soup; a chicken broth with vegetables (tomato & a couple of others). It was very average. Table d'hôte is like 2/3 extra dollars so its whatever.
I ordered the table d'hôte rigatoni with a meatball. It was good, the sauce was a bit undersalted, but the herb mix in the tomato sauce was nice, & when combined with the melted cheese, it made for a tasty combination. The meatball, however, was a bit overwhelming, slightly dry on the inside, & lacking in flavor. Not bad overall, but I would have preferred smaller meatballs with a better cooking method. It seemed oven-cooked rather than pan-fried. Still, it was enjoyable to get a bite of meatball with the rigatoni & cheese would recommend.
My girlfriend had the ravioli. She said she liked it, but I tried one & I'm pretty sure it was frozen. Not a bad option, but I'm not sure I'd pay $25 for it. The sauce was either vodka sauce or some kind of cream sauce, & it was good, but I wouldn't recommend the meat ravioli.
My friend had the carbonara. He said it was good & well-seasoned, but I didn't taste it so I can't say for sure.
The lamb rack looked amazing. It came with spaghetti, & I would definitely order it if I liked lamb (I don't). My friend said it was cooked exactly to his request, with a well-seared crust that trapped the juices inside, just waiting to be released when cut open. Delicious, according to him.
The most underrated dish here is probably the pizza. I forgot how good it was & didn't order it this time, but maybe I should have. It's more of a'fancy' pizza (the kind you eat with a fork & knife) but it looks great: not too oily, generously topped, rich in flavor, with low cheese content on a crispy flatbread-style crust.
Overall, this restaurant is a solid spot to try on a weeknight if you live in the area. I wouldn't drive across the city for it, but you'll likely get a table right away, be promptly served, & enjoy good food, making for a solid 4/5 experience.
The food was excellent. Don't know why I avoided this Restaurant. THE Veal was better than most places I've been to. Going back for Lamb!
Excellent service for a big group! Communication was easy & food was delicious!!! Will be coming back!
I fell in love with this family-owned restaurant. Also, I felt comfortable dining with the kids. The dishes were generous & delicious.
This is one of the best Italian restaurants that I have ever eaten at. There's not many family owned businesses left anymore where you meet the owner, the wife is cooking & the owners mother is taking your order. desserts are home made from scratch & they appreciate you when you come into their restaurant. If you ever in Montreal make sure to give them a shot.
Anyone wanting to know what it was like to get served in a restaurant in the 1960's should go eat in this place. The invoice they give you at the end of your meal is written by hand. The waitress looks like she is in her 70s or 80s. The place needs a total remodel & the menu needs to be updated. The pizza was under cooked & when this was brought to the owner's attention, he became totally defensive, like all restaurants did in the 60's. Needless to say this was a very disappointing experience.
Family restaurant with delicious, homemade Italian cuisine. There's an affordable evening table d'hôte menu. Laid back, casual atmosphere.
