We came here around a week ago, the Owner & staff provided a magnificent service for me & my brother. The chicken parm was amazing & we really just had a phenomenal time.
The food here was only second best to their service. The wait staff was incredible, constantly keeping our water glasses full & refilling our carafe when necessary. I ordered the arrabbiata modified with spaghetti instead of penne, which was delicious & perfectly spicy. My friend had the bolognese. The portions were perfect & our plates were wiped clean with the fresh rolls provided. Wish we had time for the tiramisu, which looked delicious as it passed by!
I would recommend this restaurant to anybody who wants to eat truly authentic Italian food. Everything we had was amazing & the service was great. The homemade pasta really stood out to me. Thank you especially to Mauro, I will surely be passing by often!
The reason I am giving it 3 stars is mostly due to the service. The food was O-K (lentil soup for entree was bland, veal for the main meal was good, the tiramisu for dessert was delicious). I brought my parents here for their last night in Montreal. They are 80 + years old. My father eats slowly, & the waiter took his salad (entree) away while he was still eating! The waiter didn't even apologize, he just said "the main meal is ready". There was still salad in the plate & my father had his fork in his hand... Then, for dessert, my father ordered the Cassatta Siciliana; which is supposed to be a cake but it was in fact ice cream. They should mention it's ice cream on the menu as he probably wouldn't have ordered it. At the end, while paying, my 80 + year old father has trouble seeing the screen on the debit machine so it took a while for him to proceed with each step. The waiter was pushing him to hurry up which caused a mistake in the transaction & final total. There was no remorse & in fact the waiter was annoyed he took so long. Service was overbearing / impatient & rude. We felt rushed, & there were many empty tables around us as it was a Monday evening.
This place has to be the absolute worst Italian food I've ever had in my life. I'm Italian so trust me. I know. Service was decent but it took 1 hour to get the pasta we ordered that probably came from a can. I ordered the caprese salad. What a joke! The mozzarella was similar to a no name pizza mozzarella you can get anywhere with a shelf life of 5 years. Special note to the chef. Caprese salad is made with fresh mozzarella, ripe tomatoes olive oil & basil. So simple but yet you messed it up. Try using Italian tomatoes for a tomato sauce & starting with extra virgin olive oil. It's a must to be considered Italian food. I can go on & on here. Save your money. Pizza pizza is more Italian
Tonight, my friends & I visited Trattoria Trestevere in Montreal & we could not be more pleased with the experience that we shared. We were here for a bachelor dinner & we were greeted & served by our waitor & owner, Mauro! He was very warm, welcoming, hospitable, knowledgeable, & dedicated to excellence in customer service. He made great recommendations & the food was nothing short of delicious. We had an incredible 5 star experience & we highly recommend this establishment; the service, environment, & food! Thank you for an incredible experience & we hope to cross paths soon!
The service & the food were phenomenal & felt like I was home at nonnas for dinner! Mauro & the his staff make everyone feel like family!!! A must stop for anyone whether you're from Montreal or visiting!!
An absolute jewel in the heart of downtown Montreal. If you haven't been, it's time to visit. We visited this restaurant last night & we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Beautiful ambiance & amazing food which is worth elaborating...I had their escargot as a starter & gnocchi rose for main & my friend had smoked salmon & Osso Buco. My meal was to die for. We also shared a tiramisu & fried gnocchis for dessert which both were so yummy. Last but not least...Exceptional service. Mauro, the owner who served us was very inviting & charming. Thanks for an amazing dining experience!!
