We dined here on a Saturday after making a reservation for two - the place fills up fast. We…read moreinitially wanted to come here weeks prior but the place was fully booked when we called. The restaurant seems to be very popular for birthdays or special group gatherings. What interested me in the first place was the large menu, there is a good selection of everything so it easy to please a picky eater. The restaurant itself it medium sized, there is a small parking lot and free street parking. It is located in a very residential neighborhood. The interior style and vibe is fancy, higher end, white table cloth and intimate. We were seated and served very promptly. Our main meals were the penne romanoff which is a pasta in a rosee and vodka sauce, along with the grilled lamb chops. This is served with a side of potatoes and veggies but we were able to swap this out with a side of simple olive oil and garlic pasta instead. They serve complimentary flat bread and buns to start. The pasta was delicious, extremely rich and flavorful, and pretty generous in portion. The lamb chops were dainty, cooked well and tasty however we expected more of an herb or seasoned crust to these -they only had a sprinkle of herbs on them. Service is super speedy and efficient, we were in and out very quickly since we did not order anything else. I would highly recommend this place for pasta, if you live in the area, take out would be ideal. The pricing and portion is very reasonable. I would definitely come back and want to try other things from the menu, we saw several other dishes at nearby tables and everything looked delicious.

At 7:10 we told our waiter that we had to be somewhere else at 8:00, he went to check in the kitchen and we were told that our meal would be ready in 10 min., after 20 min. We asked for our bill and the waiter apologised and said that whatever we took would be on the house. I left some cash on the table and left. They had accepted another reservation for 80 people without realizing that they could not serve that group and the other vlients which also had reservations.

***4.5 Stars***…read more Solid Italian restaurant in Montreal with a focused menu. 7 appetizers, 3 pastas and 3 entrees to choose from. An intimate and mostly casual atmosphere. I had a great Negroni and wife had one of the best non-alcoholic drinks ever. Mostly Italian wines by the glass. We shared the scallop crudo, buffalo mozzarella and beef carpaccio appetizers. The scallop was probably my favorite out of the 3, but the sheer size of the beef carpaccio dish would make me order it again (good to share amongst 3-4 ppl). For mains, we ordered the cavatelli with pork ragu and the lamb special. The pasta was nicely al dente which complemented well with the tangy-savory cherry tomato and olive ragu. The pear tart with white chocolate yogurt was also a good way to end the meal. Overall a great Italian option in Montreal that I would return to.

Came here a couple months back, we made a reservation for a group of 5, but once seated we realised…read morethe booth and table they gave us was far too tight. Our group had 2 larger guys who just couldn't sit comfortably behind the table since it was pressing on to their chest/stomachs. The restaurant looked empty so we asked to change tables but after talking to our server and possibly the manager on site, it just took far too long to accomodate us. Our friends felt embarassed that they couldn't even sit at the table and stood around waiting when there appeared to be tons of other tables. It seemed like the staff was annoyed with us, as if we were asking for too much. After standing around for way too long, we decided to walk out. Sadly can't comment on the food but the overall service was awful. Everyone here seemed stuck up and unwilling to comply with a simple seat change. So just a note, unless you are skinny, you won't fit in a booth and the staff will embarass you for it.

Let me tell you a little story about a little restaurant that could. It's a little restaurant…read morecalled Le Saint-Jacques. This little restaurant has been operating for about for years. My girlfriend spotted this little restaurant hidden from any main Street. One of those little restaurants that you drive by and blink and you missed it. And that's ok because this little restaurant is filled with regulars only, where the owner calls you by name, pats you on the shoulder and treats you like family. This little restaurant has nothing hip or trendy, you don't get served by strippers or hipsters with oily beards and man buns, they don't play loud music and you don't have to scream your conversation. No it's a quaint family owned restaurant, with a charming homey décor that seats 30, maybe 35 guests, tops where you get served by the owners, the chef is the owner's daughter, assisted by her husband. This little restaurant has a menu that lets face it doesn't reinvent the wheel, straight up Italian and French cuisine (trust me it works) but as with all meals, it's all in the execution and boy does this little restaurant execute well. The menu is simple and short. This is good. It leaves more room for quality. The opening was a simple soup, a potage, a cream of carrots and ginger. Perfect balance between the sweet of the carrot and the spiciness and bitterness of the ginger. If this was a preview of things to come, we were in for a great meal. I could have eaten a bucket full of that soup. This was followed by this giant veal meatball served in this perfect tomato sauce that I licked up from the bowl with bread once I was done... the meatball was perfect melt in your mouth goodness, no weird spices or weird add-ins. All that topped with slivers of Parmigiano Regiano (hope I spelled that right). Seriously delicious. My girlfriend had fried shrimp wrapped in angel hair pasta served with a balsamic and maple syrup reduction. Looked awesome but I'm allergic to shellfish so I can't taste, but it was an eye crossing mind blowing experience for her. The owner then asks us if we want to get the main right away or wait. We took a break. But the owner brought us a complementary plate of bruschetta which were just perfect and non acidic and not too salty (common mistake) Then comes the main. I had duck confit served with roasted vegetables and this crazy ass potato mash that's so simple and yet so perfect. The roasted vegetables was equally delicious. I was expecting the duck to be super fatty because it was confit, but it was well balanced and the accompanying sauce was... it was.... I dunno what it was made of and I should have asked but it had this fruity taste that just married perfectly with the duck, I want to dare say it was cranberry but I'm not sure. All I know is that I was thrown for a curve. Perfectly prepared, fall off the bone, perfectly seasoned and very flavorful stuff. My girlfriend had the pistachio crusted rack of lamb and there's no describing how good that was. The chef really has a knack for cooking meats perfectly. And the accompanying sauce was disturbingly tasty. The meal was concluded with the classic tiramisu, often drenched in alcohol, but not here. Equilibrium was achieved. It was sided with fresh blueberries and caramel. POW! My girlfriend had a 3 chocolate layer cake that was very chocolaty but not over powered with sweetness. The owner even introduced us to regulars sitting next to us and we became momentary family. He gave us nicknames: Francesco and Angela. Our new family was friendly and even shared with us some of the shoestring fries which were freaking awesome. By the bucket please. Outstanding service. Mind blowing food. Subdued and welcoming atmosphere. So this obviously gets a 5 outta 5. We'll be going back and we'll bring more people.

Came here to eat with a friend and definitely had the best spaghetti bolognese I've ever had in…read moreMontreal. The bolognese sauce was so good that I bought some of their bolognese sauce for take out so that my family get to try it. The service was really good too. My Italian friend who dined with me here told me that the restaurant is very Italian. If you're looking for a very good Italian restaurant, come check out this Apportez Votre Vin restaurant. The food is very good, the staff know how to make their customers feel comfortable and have a good dining experience. I also like the fact that they have a terrace which gives customers the option to eat outdoor and enjoy the summer weather. Love how they also take preventive measures to help reduce possible COVID-19 transmission which definitely made us feel safe throughout our dining experience. Thanks so much, Pasta Presto for the best spaghetti bolognese I've ever had in Montreal. Please open a resto in Toronto as well one day and bring the bolognese sauce there.
