Enoteca Mozza

A colleague invited us for lunch, so I was excited to try it at first.
Our workplace is very strict, and we only have one hour for lunch, absolutely not a minute more, and since our office is right next to this place and my colleague had been here before, we knew it was entirely doable.
See, the problem is that we had a reservation for 3. When we arrived, we were told the table was being cleaned and that we would be seated shortly. Then a couple minutes later, the two hostesses started seating other groups of 3 without reservations. Since when are reservations not seated first?
Oh, we were the last unseated reservation, by the way. I could see it on their screen, which also clearly displayed we were already 15 minutes behind.
15 minutes is not much unless you have, you know, 60 minutes total for lunch.
Soup of the day (zucchini cream I think) was good, pizza was alright, caesar salad was rather bland. Place is loud, service is non-​existent.
The 15-​minute wait for a reservation, when we arrived precisely on time, is a complete lack of respect and shows that staff is poorly managed.

Loud loud loud
Had a drink and so glad I walked over to Bellagio instead
More bar than restaurant which is fine but I was looking forward to a relaxing dinner.
Mozza is fine if you want a more vibrant evening with friends

I’m from New York, so pizza is my middle name. This place is pretty good for Montréal. The pizzas and their toppings are well constructed which is key, creating a good texture. However, what establishments beyond New York always fail to execute correctly on is the crust. Crust here was a bit soft/​floppy, not crisp, so it was a bit disappointing. However, the salads were good, other appetizers were good, and like I said– pizza was good enough. Service was a bit slow, but it was early afternoon.
Restaurant has a very modern atmosphere that somehow still captures the coziness of Montréal — I found the space very appealing.

I can get skeptical when it comes to going out for lunch or supper at a chain type restaurant but my colleagues reserved a table here for lunch a few days ago so I thought what the heck.
Turns out the food was actually a lot better than what I was expecting, or maybe I was just really HUNGRY by the time my food made it’s way to me!
The horrible service is the reason this experience was a bad one. We were a table of 8 and two of us ordered before everyone else and specified to the waitress that we were going to dine and head out before the rest of the group because we had a meeting right after lunch. We still had an hour ahead of us so we were not too stressed. The rest of our table ordered about 15 minutes after us, yet all 6 of them were served almost right away. The waitress was rude and kept telling us it «wasn’t her fault» instead of just apologizing for the wait.
We waited for 40 minutes longer and by that time everyone had finished their plates and had to sit there waiting for us. At this point, the waitress just tried to avoid us so as not to have to come check up on us and reassure us. Still not quite sure how it took over an hour to make 2 pizzas after they made an error with our order.
The least we would have expected was for a manager or someone to come apologize and offer us our meals, but since that never happened we just grabbed our food when it was finally ready and left the restaurant.
