We came here as a party of six to celebrate my sister's birthday and had the most incredible experience. From the moment we walked in, the service was warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. The owners went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect, which made the night feel extra special. Every single person at our table was raving about their meal. The food was outstanding across the board. As someone with celiac disease, I was especially impressed and grateful for how accommodating and knowledgeable the staff was. It's rare to feel so comfortable and actually enjoy a full, delicious meal without worry. Amazing food, exceptional service, and owners who truly care!! this place is a gem. We'll absolutely be back and highly recommend!!! read more

The food and service were exceptional!!! The food brought back delicious memories of our trip to Tuscany. Each bite was a delight. Arancini. Prosciutto. Penne pasta with truffles and sausage. The Pinot Noir paired perfectly. There were only two servers and the young woman and man never stopped moving. The restaurant was full yet we were never forgotten. I don't know how they did it. All phenomenal. read more

Comfortable restaurant with great service. Had the $43 lamb shank and it was tender, juicy, flavourful, and loved the gravy that came with it. It's one of the best lamb shanks I've had. Highly recommend. read more

Excellent Italian in Montreal. The place was beautiful decorated for the holidays, staff is friendly. Great wine list, if you like octopus get it as an appetizer, executed very well. All dishes were executed well from presentation to taste. MAke sure you get a reservation since the place is packed and get a Uber to get there. A must for Italian food in Montreal! read more

Food was great, servers were helpful and ambiance was modern and warm. Would go again!

Food was wonderful, service even better. Beautiful modern interior What more could you ask!

Excellent food and great service when the family owners are present. Not great service with others.

Three of us arrived at the restaurant at 6:30, the only customers. We ordered salad and main courses. The salad came quickly and was delicious. We asked for bread and a basket was delivered to the table. Then we waited and waited. Other customers came and their dinners were delivered. We waited. At 7:40 we asked about our main courses. We were told, by our waitress, that there is a new computer system and this impacted our order. Still other meals were delivered. We inquired about our meals from a different server. The waitress checked the computer system and did not look at us. Then we were told our food was being prepared. Finally at 8:00 the food was delivered. They should have been forthright and told us that a mistake was made and the order not submitted. The food was delicious but the service poor. read more

If you want feel like you are visiting Italy, this is place to go! Everything is fresh, authentically prepared, and downright delicious! From the appetizers to the main dishes to the desserts, each course was a gastronomical delight. We have not had Italian food like this since our trip to Italy. Frank and Josie, your hosts, make you feel like you are one of the famiglia. Sharing stories with Frank about our similar Italian traditions made our last night in Montreal something we will always remember. Can't say enough about this ristorante - come see for yourself. Gracie Mille, Francesco e Josie! read more

we had a lovely Friday night dinner with family. the price fixe dinner was yummy and well priced. All 3 of us had the risotto seafood special. I'm especially happy because I have a dairy allergy and their recipe is dairy free. read more

Second time I've eaten in this Italian restaurant. It never disappoints. The owners, Frank and Josie, are such great hosts, very welcoming and gracious. The food here is always on point. The lamb is tender, juicy and flavourful. The Sunday sauce was the perfect blend of spices on rigatoni, with fall off the bone beef and delicious homemade sausage. The filet of cod had a buttery sauce. The salads, beet and ceasar, were perfect starters! Definitely a place to go when you're in Montreal. read more

A restaurant in old town, Montreal. A comfortable cozy, charming restaurant with the service and friendliness is understated but wonderful. There were four adults, and we all ordered the same thing which was Pasta Seafood. We all agreed it was the best we ever had. The menu is varied with plenty to choose from. We found the price was very reasonable. Next time we're in Montreal, we will revisit the restaurant. read more

Another wonderful meal here. We loved all the dishes. Dairy allergy handled easily. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Wine list and choices are great. Pastas are fab. Special fish dish was great and eaten with glee. Red tomato sauce on the gnocchi was beyond. Great ambience. We enjoyed our meal and the owners are gems. Friendly and nice. We are dropping our son at McGill and they offered their number if he has any needs. Come on! Can't get better than this. Will be back! You will have a most enjoyable meal. read more

We decided to come here for dinner on a Friday after visiting Notre Dame. We were looking for authentic italian food with good wine selection and this place delivered just that. To start, we were given bruschetta with delicious tomato tapenade along with balsamic vinaigrette. The bread that came afterward was soft and sweet and unlike anything we'd had before. We then got the arugula salad as an appetizer followed by the Fettucine al gambier and the filet mignon. The arugula salad was delicious, fresh and very healthy. Good quantity as well. We got the fettucine with the regular tomato sauce and asked for the hot oil on the side. It was quite good and also had substantial amount of shrimps as well. We were pretty full by the time the filet came but that tasted amazing as well in combination with the sauce and the vegetables. They have pretty good wines by the glass at reasonable prices. Service was very good. Overall we have a good experience and would recommend coming here. read more

Wonderful food! I had the mushroom risotto which was wonderful. But my husband had the rabbit, he won the ordering contest. The staff was very helpful and the chocolate soufflé was amazing! Would definitely recommend. read more

The BEST Italian meal I have had in comparison to actually being in ITALY! The service was incredible. The ambiance was truly perfect. Candle lit dinner. Honestly this is the best of Montreal - I am from Nashville, TN and this is best part of the trip! From being welcomed with bruschetta, app- burrata, main course to desert ! SO GOOD! Michelin worthy! read more

Ristorante Quattro - Lamb Shank - Italian Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

Nice looking restaurant with pleasant servers but the food was expensive and awful. I ordered meatballs, minestrone and gnocchi with pomodoro sauce. The meatballs had a terrible spongy texture. Seemed like there was a lot of filler (ie bread/milk/egg) and not much meat. The sauce for the gnocchi was delicious but the gnocchi itself tasted undercooked. The minestrone was flavorful but cold. My order was to go but i was only staying a block away so I don't think it could've cooled off that fast. Spent $60 to basically eat bread and sauce for dinner. read more

This restaurant has delicious food and great service. It's a great choice for a high quality Italian meal. The gnocchi was soft and pillowy in a delicious sauce. The penne tartufata was flavourful and not too heavy. Would definitely recommend either of these or the Papardelle al Ragu (didn't take a picture but also delicious) read more

Quattro is a classic Italian restaurant with a typical pasta and meat menu and all Italian wine list. The background music is 60s American, sort of incongruous. The food and wine are pretty good, but the service is a little slow. The whole thing works pretty well. read more

High quality ingredients, flavorless food. Service is very good, ambiance is definitely interesting. Avoid the risotto.

We had dinner at Quattro Saturday night after a satisfying March day wandering Montréal and visiting the amazing Leonard Cohen retrospective at MAC. Our reservation email was promptly answered. We showed up in the midst of a light snow storm, which was on a March evening, perfect. From the moment we walked in the door we were wrapped in welcome. It is the spirit of the place, they love their clientele and ensure you know it. Not cloying, not intimate, but embracing in an entirely human sense. The atmosphere is rich without being gaudy. Tasteful without being reserved. Classy in a word We were dressed for Saturday night, but would have been as comfortable in something more casual. She practices a vegan discipline and loved her vegan edited Insalata de rucola followed by a slightly edited pasta pomodoro. She raved about the pasta as the best she'd had. I, a carnivore, started on a gentle note with the buratta which was heavenly... then to a stew featuring wild boar. Fabulous, rich, deeply satisfying. We had a conversation about boars in human history ( the porcine kind) and honored the animal but also the perfectly crisp and distinct root vegetables that made the boar his bed. This place understands wine. She had an Italian chardonnay which she loved. I had a wonderful Barolo... both of which, by the glass, make so much sense and yet are unavailable in so many restaurants, even in Québec. The service was unfailingly attentive and helpful. In a very busy place, the focus never wavered and we felt looked after. As we put on our coats to wander off, the owner cane over to thank us and to look forward to our return. That is the kind of place this is, and we will be back. read more

We ended up here on a fluke Saturday night. We thought we had made reservations for Bremner but it turns out we had booked the reservation for Monday instead of Saturday. So w e needed a restaurant super last minute and something in the old port. I didn't want to go to just any restaurant. The reviews for this place online were good so we took a chance and called and luckily they had tables available. We got there at 9:30pm and I would say the restaurant was about half full. I ordered the chardonnay and then a pinot grigio. They were both good. The waitress didn't let me try the chardonnay before she gave me my glass which I thought was unusual. But the waiter who served me the pinot grigio let me try it first but perhaps it was because I asked to try it. I do like the wines here. I tried my boyfriend's glass of red wine and it was very good. The wine menu by the glass was written on a chalk board. They gave on small plate with two free Bruschetta. It was very good! I politely waited for my boyfriend to arrive before eating one but I think it would have been even better if I had eaten it right away because then the crunchy baguette would have been even crunchier. We both ordered from the MTL a Table menu. My boyfriend ordered the beet soup but he didn't like it. We switched entrees but I didn't like the soup either and after awhile I gave up on trying to eat it. I'm not a big fan of beets to begin with. I only eat beet salad because its healthy. I had ordered the salmon gravlax with red onions, fennel and capers. That was good. For mains my boyfriend had the rigatoni with tomato sauce and melted smoked gouda cheese and I had the pork shank on a bed of pumpkin risotto. The rigatoni wasn't what I expected at all. It looked more like a lasagna to me. It was tasty though but I would have preferred it with a meat sauce and some chili flakes. The pork shank was a definite winner. The meat fell easily off the bone. The risotto was good and didn't taste like pumpkin at all. Both portions were huge which I like. My boyfriend could not finish his rigatoni. For dessert I had the homemade pumpkin ice cream with walnuts. It was so good! Think pumpkin spiced latte but in ice cream form! My boyfriend had the Sicilian cannoli. I honestly don't know what the difference between a Sicilian cannoli and a regular cannoli is. All I know is that there were two small cannolis on a plate. One was pistachio and the other was lemon. The pistachio was good but I didn't really enjoy the lemon one because it was too lemony for me. For $31 for three services I felt it was worth it. Besides the beet soup the food was good. The restaurant was nicely decorated. There were tons of art on display for purchase. If I was in the area I think I would come back and try something from their regular menu like perhaps the truffle penne or maybe I would go back for some wine and some antipasti. read more

We had a delicious dinner at Quattro while visiting Montreal. The staff was very accommodating with two of us needing gluten free options. We enjoyed a gluten free rigatoni meal with gluten free rolls and crème brûlée. The others enjoyed their meals as well. We had great service and the meal was very tasty. We highly recommend this restaurant! read more

Perfect spot, easy to park, and delicious dinner. We got a few appetizers which were outstanding. I highly recommend the grilled calamari and the tasty greens that come with it. We also ordered meatballs, which weren't my favorite but my girlfriend enjoyed them a lot so it was worth it. I had the fettuccini ai gamberi which blew me away. I didn't expect the shrimp to be so large and the pasta had a very nice heat level. The braised rabbit was also incredibly tasty and the vegetables that went with it were seasoned impeccably. I would hope to return again soon. read more

My experience summed up in one word: outstanding. Although the "$$$" on Yelp made us a bit hesitant, the 4.5 star rating convinced my friends and I to splurge a little for our last dinner in Montreal. Our meal was worth every penny. We ordered 3 pastas: the Pappardelle, Linguini allo Scoglio and the Penne. All three were heavenly. The Pappardelle (pasta in a tomato cream sauce with Italian dry-cured ham) was rich and flavourful. I usually get sick of eating anything too creamy but the Pappardelle was so good I ate every single bite. The prosciutto (dry-cured ham) was delicious and perfectly complemented the pasta. Overall, a stellar dish and well worth the $25. The Linguini allo Scoglio (spaghetti noodles in a light white wine and garlic dressing with seafood) was also delicious - it was flavourful without being "heavy" and had a deep but clean taste. I loved how the Linguini was packed with a wide variety of fresh seafood (muscles, shrimps, clams, etc) - you definitely get your money's worth. Last but not least, the penne. The Penne (truffle cream sauce with sausages) is one of the most popular dishes at Ristorante Quattro and for good reason - it is unlike anything I have ever tasted before. The sauce was very rich and creamy like a typical Alfredo sauce but it had a unique hint of sweetness reminiscent of melted white chocolate. Very distinct and pleasant flavour - definitely a must-try! The customer service was beyond amazing as well. The entire staff was incredibly friendly and constantly checked up on our table to make sure we were satisfied with everything. The owner even personally recommended specific wines to go with each of our respective meals and assured us that there would be no charge if we did not enjoy his recommendation. He even brought me special Italian chilli oil for my bread when I told him I liked spicy food! Overall, I had an amazing experience here - not only was the food outstanding, the customer service blew me away. Don't let the "$$$" stop you from taking a visit because it's not everyday you come across such an incredible gem. read more

Was disappointed with this restaurant. We went here because most of the Italian restaurants are closed on sundays in Montreal. Service was mediocre. The the kept switches waiters on us. After we ordered everything, waiter comes back to tell us they don't have oysters. Waiter originally stated kids dishes are half off/half portion with exception of a few dishes. After my 7 year old finally picks a dish, she then stated it doesn't apply to meat dishes either. Food was mediocre at best. My pasta tasted half cooked. Calamari was good tho. Other 5 people in the party were also disappointed. When we got bill they charged us more then they said they would for the kids size dish. When we asked about it, manager said it's impossible that the waiter would say the kids dishes are half off. Not sure if waiter was uninformed, or what, but the entire experience wasn't a pleasant one. read more

We had great fun here with the very charming and spontaneous waiter Frank, this is not an everyday experience in Montreal as the staff in a lot of the newer places in the business district are rude and incompetent.

Food was excellent. Highly recommend the tagliatelle. Only giving four stars because the service was very poor. Drinks were never refilled since our arrival. Nobody checked in on us after bringing our meal until it was time to pay the bill. Overall, great Italian dinner though. read more

So, getaway weekend in Montreal. We told the concierge at our hotel we were in the mood for something like Italian, he recommended Quattro Ristorante, called and made us a reservation and away we went. We were immediately met at the door by Vince, one of the owners. He was warm, welcoming, and genuine. He took time to chat, learn our names and was a very friendly start to the night. We ordered our meals, with input, and the food was fantastic. E had the in-house made gnocchi, I had the penne with truffle sauce and sausage, accompanied by the antipasto della casa. Finished up with the tiramisu and the chocolate soufflé (in house made) and wow. This is an amazing place to eat. The staff, the atmosphere and the food are absolutely a must try. This place is great. read more

Wait...what?! Came here last minute on my visit to Montreal and this was AMAZING! Everything was so tasty from the free bread they give you, to the octopus appetizer, to all the pastas. They even make most of the pastas in house. We called an hour ahead and made a reservation for a party of 5, but since it was a Monday it wasn't that busy. Service was great too, they were really attentive and did thorough checks on the food to make sure they didn't include nuts due to an allergy in my group. Before I left Montreal I was so sad I didn't have time to come here twice. Ugh. So good. read more

My mom wanted Italian, so we decided to check it out. Loved this place. The only thing that brought it down to 4 stars was the price of a small Caesar salad - $10?!? We had the penne with truffle cream and sausage (definitely recommend), pappardelle with prosciutto (would eat again, but nothing outstanding), the fish of the day, and the veal with lemon butter sauce (the latter 2 were ok). We had gotten the grilled octopus appetizer as well...so soft and tender with a hint of chargrilled taste. Yum! My sister was on a hunt for delicious creme brûlée and we certainly found it here. All in all, a definite recommend! read more

Ristorante Quattro - Pappardelle - Italian Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

Not sure why people are giving this place stellar reviews. Aside from the nice interior, good wine, and on the fancier side. However, here are the downsides: the bread was average, and not even hot. They only had one soup (unlisted) which was a gazpacho and not any hot soups. Was expecting at the very least a minestrone. Then I had a dish with the rigatoni. It has octopus which was hard and served as baby octopuses as opposed to bits of it, and the pasta dish itself was stodgy. I think I'll rely on Quebec for just the French food. I was really hoping this place was going to be amazing, after I personally heard this was great but it was nothing more than slightly above average for me. read more
