Info & Location
The creation of young, up and coming Montreal restaurateurs, Wienstein & Gavino’s debuted in Montreal in 1996. W&G is a large Mediterranean restaurant spanning two floors and complimented by two terraces in the summer months. A large bar is the focal point of the first floor while the open kitchen complete with brick pizza oven is the main attraction upstairs. W&G is best known for its fresh, homemade pasta and traditional sauces and thin crust pizza. There is also a good selection of steaks, veal, and seafood. W&G serves lunch and dinner every day with a weekly table d’hôte available daily at $12-$16 for lunch and starting at $23 for dinner. In addition, a selection of pizza and pasta is available for 10$ from 11a.m. until 3p.m. for the lunch crowd and after 10pm every day for late night diners looking for a meal after the game, a concert downtown or before hitting the dance floor. W&G can also accommodate groups and can plan your party for you whether you’ve invited 10 people or 300 people! From Monday to Friday there is a “happy hour” at the W&G bar where guests can enjoy 2 for 1 from 4pm until 8pm. After cocktails at the bar, you can choose from one of the largest wine cellars in the city, stocked with reasonably priced wines, private imports, or premium fine wines. The focus is always fun at W&G with a DJ keeping things lively on the weekend and special events year-round. There is always something interesting going on at W&G!

Ambiente aconchegante, excelente serviço.
Vinho, aperitivos, pizza e sobremesa foram as nossas escolhas. E o curioso: a conta já vem dividida conforme o seu consumo. É costume local.View more

The food was okay-nothing terrible, but also nothing memorable. Given the price, I expected better quality & more attention to detail.
What really affected the experience was how the service was handled. I did leave a tip, though less than the usual 15%. Instead of politely asking if something had been wrong or opening a respectful conversation, the waiter reacted in a way that felt confrontational & unprofessional.
I understand that tipping is customary in Canada-typically 15-20% pre-tax, & around 10-15% in Montreal-but it's not legally required. Recent changes in Quebec (Bill 72) even clarified that tip suggestions must be based on pre-tax amounts to ensure fairness, not to enforce gratuities.
A respectful approach would have gone a long way. Sadly, the tone of the interaction overshadowed the rest of the meal. I wouldn't recommend this restaurant based on the overall experience.View more

All the food was delicious. We went with friends to celebrate a birthday, & the experience was great. At the end, they surprised us with a slice of chocolate cake, which was a really nice. The staff knows how to treat their customers. I ordered the'Pollo alla Parmigiana', a pasta dish with chicken, & I highly recommend it.View more

After living in Italy, this has been my'go to' resto in Monteal to take me back to that time. The pizzas & rich pasta sauces are always on the mark. The tiramisu needs work Mr Gavino. Always a great spot & always popular.View more

Would absolutely recommend W&G for your Italian cravings. We enjoyed our outdoor seating & loved the fact that they were able to get our order just the way we wanted it! Happy with our pasta & gelato experience in Montreal 😋View more

Le resto m'a été référé par une amie. Au début j'étais un peu sceptique car je voulais un endroit plus calme & intime afin de célébrer notre 6e année de mariage mais finalement on y a été & nous avons tellement aimé.
En fait, nous avons tout aimé. L'ambiance, le repas & le service.
Le repas était simplement excellent. Le prix était abordable. La serveuse nous a simplement mis à l'aise, elle a fait du bon service. Malgré le bruit autour de nous, mon conjoint & moi avons pu discuter calmement.
Je recommande le resto, j'y retournerai prochainement avec des copines.View more

The food was very underwhelming. The carbonara was not traditional at all. The calamari was extremely rubbery, but this bartender that was serving us. Did a great job handmade great cocktails.View more

We came as a group of six & even though it was busy, the service was very attentive. Very spacious, nice decorated place. I personally recommend the bruschetta baguette & carbonara. A great spot if you're with a group & looking for good portions. Make sure to book tables before visit.View more
