Pizzeria Geppetto

The food was OK i took the crevette pasta (was too spicy for me) and the chicken lasagna (was good) the service was slow and not friendly.

We loved this little restaurant. Service was okay, but their amazing tomato spaghetti pasta made it all okay. So far, this is the best tomato pasta I have tried. My boyfriend and I were going nuts on the sauce — just saying if you are into those kinds of things! Pizza was good, crust was thin and well baked. Toppings were fresh. I’ll have to go again and try another flavour (my boyfriend ordered one I wasn’t crazy about but he was :)). Their wine is good too, so it was a nice addition to this meal. For my Italian cravings, I’ll know where to go!

Went there with some friends. We had really nice time here. The pizzas had nice taste. And the service was also good.
I would try something special so I took the ‘Salsiccia’ pizza which with lamb sausages. It was really tasty but next day I was really sick, I thought I had food poisoning…
Others were eating ‘Quattro Formaggi’. They were fine.
Maybe I was unlucky but after all my personal opinion is 2*.

Place was busy outside and empty inside.
Not many people for lunch. But staff was not in a hurry and in total we waited for pizza 40 min.
For start we ordered octopus– i do not suggest to order it cause it is not fresh and 100% preheated from the microwave, taste also so so.
Pizza was OK, one was under salted underspiced — generally talking no taste at all if i don’t add more salt and pepper. Chicken in pizza was totally no taste — to any spices. In generally pizza was not so bad. size was good, crispy dough.
Second pizza it is last in pizza menu i do not remember the name but it goes with chorizo, onion and etc, it is crazy fat pizza… omg our stomaccks were dead after it…
Coffeee latte was nice i liked it.
Lemonade for 3 dollars they bring usual San Peligrino from bottle.
Thank you

My 3 kids said their margarita pizza was the best they’ve ever tried!
My husband and I enjoyed the grilled octopus and grilled chicken pasta. We will definitely coming back tomorrow :)

I got the risotto, my husband got the penne, and our two other guests got pizza. We should have gone with pizza!!! The risotto was ok, not great, and not bad, same review for the penne, not amazing, but good. The pizzas however were great!!! Good crust, interesting selection of toppings! Will be coming back again for pizza!!!

8:30 reservation (6 person) on a Saturday night. Got here a few minutes before and they told us the table wasn’t ready and would be about 15 minutes so we sat outside.
Ordered wine and waited patiently. After almost an hour, the waiter took our order (we were still sitting outside in the cold). After a bit longer than an hour after our reservation we sat down. Food came about 30 – 40 minutes later.
Was a little burnt but still pretty good. But waiting for over an hour was pretty brutal… Even if they did bring us shots (twice).

I love me some thin crust pizza! Geppetto is my go to pizza joint when I’m not in a hurry, I had the chorizo pizza and it was delicious, nice & spicy the way I like it. Most often then not a personal size pizza is not enough for me but I left the restaurant feeling satisfied with my meal. A must on my pizza are fresh pepper, spicy oil for the crust and pepper flakes which they had :-) My water stayed empty a little too long for my liking was the only negative point… I had to ask for a refill. For desert we shared a vanilla crème brûlée which was spot on! We will be back!

I’ve been here a couple times and I love it. I’ve had pizza, salad, and the lasagna and all were amazing. I’ve eaten inside but the tables are pretty close so I preferred eating outside.
The only reason I don’t go here more often is cause it’s a little on the expensive side.

My wife and I eat out often and like to try one or two new places each week. This was the worst service we had experienced in years. The restaurant was not busy when we arrived. We asked to sit on the terrace and were told to go ahead and pick a table. About 5 minutes after sitting down, a busboy brought us water. We waited at least another ten minutes before the waiter showed up, and asked if we were ready to order. No one ever offered to take a drink order. We ordered a pizza and salad. The pizza was brought out by a «runner» who placed it on the table and left. That was the last time anyone came to our table, or any other table near us, for the next half hour, The waiter finally showed up and, noticing our empty plates, apologized for forgetting our salad. We asked for the bill, he brought it, and then disappeared again. Fifteen minutes later we left, leaving exact change in the folder.
The pizza was okay, nothing special. Prices are a little high, but not unreasonable. There are many many better places for pizza and Italian food in Montréal. We will not return to Geppetto’s.

On habite le coin, et on aurait aimé avoir une bonne pizzeria de quartier, mais malheureusement à cause de la pizza pas tout à fait maîtrisée, on n’y retournera pas: pâte décevante, sauce industrielle…

Went there while visiting Montréal. It’s not on the main drag (by Atwater Marche & the Canal), but that’s it’s charm — it feels like a cute neighborhood place. Very solid pizza right from the oven. One of the best places we ate while in town. There are a lot of over-​priced food places in Montréal, but this place is worth the 50 bucks we shelled out for two pizza and two drinks.

This little «Italian-​inspired» restaurant is very good, a little gem in the Little Burgundy neighborhood! It might be a bit high on the price side, but the portions are of a good size.
They have a very good selection of wine bottles and glasses, and the menu is simply good. I tend to take their pasta or menu of the day, but the pizzas are pretty good, and very different from your average pizza joint. Never had a bad service neither, so it did help to make me love this place.
Overall, my favorite place to go when I’m with people who have difficult culinary tastes.

Best damn carbonara pasta I have ever had, and I’ve had more than my fair share in my day. Perfect combination of cream, cheese, pepper. Generous portion, excellent dish.
I also had the burrata on two separate occasions. Yes, the dish is $ 24, but if you understand the quality and sheer volume of ingredients that go into the dish, you’d be hard pressed to make it at home for less than $ 20.

Went to a food truck launch and ended up at Pizzeria Geppetto across the street with a friend !
This place is quite charming and the food is pretty good but the service was like we say in french ”Laisse à désirer” which means could have been much better.
My first impression of the place was the decoration: intimate, cozy and romantic feel with vintage furniture and low lighting. I love many details, the fact that you could see a part of the kitchen from most tables is pretty cool and booth banquet seats are always a plus for me! Oh there is also a very nice patio outside for summer days/​evening!
Now about the food ! The menu offered a variety of pasta and pizza dishes with some interesting entrees and a wine selection: Typical italian place or at least what most people would expect. I ordered a pizza called Americana which was a pretty standard with tomato sauce, green peppers, cheese, mild soppressata (type of salami which i abstained from) and Mushrooms — which was the main reason why i ordered it. The pizza was a pretty big size for one person but anyone can easily finish it because it didn’t have that ”heavy-​greasy” feeling that most fast food pizza’s have nowadays. The dough was the tastiest in my opinion, you could sense it was an oven wood pizza. My friend only took an entrée, the grilled octopus which was served with chickpea purée — THAT was really delicious and i’m not usually a fan of sea food but i would go back to that place just for that one dish. A must try.
The thing that made me give it 3 starts instead of 4 was the general atmosphere of the place. It was so very busy, waiters were running right and left and it seemed to exist some type of disorganization. My friend and i arrived and waited behind 2 girls to be seated, they had a reservation and were seated after a few mins. After that we waited for about 10 mins at the entrée before a man who worked there approached us to ask us if we had been previously approached, we told them no and specified we would like a seat for two and did not have a reservation. The man nodded and left and we waited…& waited…& waited all the while waiters were walking passed us without any acknowledgement. The man who previously spoke to us never came back and we had to stop a waiter in his tracks while he was rushing past us to ask once again if we could have a seat, he then told us finally YES and we were seated within 5 mins.
I would go back if ever i’m craving that grilled octopus or maybe just to give it one more chance. Overall this place has great potential but could really benefit from better service especially at the reception area.

I’ve eaten at Geppetto twice now. Once out on the terrace and most recently I picked up a couple of pizzas to go. My first experience was neutral, the prices were a bit high for what you got but the food was ok, nothing memorable.
My most recent experience was more memorable, but unfortunately in a negative way. I called in my order, a Marguerita and a Funghi. I arrived to pick up the order, the restaurant was not too busy, and after waiting a couple of minutes at the front was directed over to the bar area to collect my pizzas. Throughout my interaction with the staff I got the impression that I was clearly some sort of inconvenience and that their evening would have been much better if I had chosen to order my food from somewhere else.
As for the pizzas they were bland and disappointing. There are a number of excellent Pizzeria’s in Montréal that produce great thin crust pies so I will not be visiting Geppetto again.

I’m really not sure why the ratings are so low for this place, my friend and I walked in for lunch on a total whim since we were in the area. It was quiet and empty, except for a group of 4 sitting across from us. The restaurant is cozy and our waiter was really helpful.
They have a pretty vast variety of beverages. I had a glass of Italian Sangiovese wine, and for 8 $ I was very satisfied and enjoyed it thoroughly. We shared an appetizer of grilled octopus (14 $), which was phenomenal. It was by no means chewy or rubbery; it was rich in fresh flavour, very soft and tender, and served over some delicious hummus and a side of chickpeas. The dressing was simple: lemon-​y and some garlic. Nothing overpowering, it was just right. Following our appetizer was their special of the day: A small (but not actually small) pizza and side salad for 15 $. The pizza had been made with pancetta, arugula, and feta– really fresh ingredients that blended well together. I loved it.
Empty or not, I’d come again.

Basilic frais, tomates cerises, proscuitto, roquette et généreuses boules de ricotta dulce, la pizza Mazzarina est la préférée de ses dames, selon le serveur.

Was it that I thought it was pricy? Tucked away in a corner? to be honest, I’m not even sure why I haven’t taken the time out to eat here prior to this visit but, I sure glad I did.
Another interesting thing was that we headed in at about 830pm on a Tuesday, and the place was pretty busy still (people were coming in after us too AND it closed at 10)!
So first things first: Ambience — This place is felt very warm, and I don’t just mean sitting in an open pizza kitchen warm, but the décor and photos, and mirrors, it was totally cute. Secondly, there were a mix of crowds there, I saw 4 couples, a couple of families, girls dinner, guys dinner, among the mix of people, and of all ages.
There was 3 of us I ordered and split the Veggie Pizza with Goat Cheese, my 3^rd friend the 4 cheese pizza, and we all shared the Grilled Octopus. I watched my friend Anna inhale her half of pizza and it was good but the highlight has to be the Grilled Octopus! It was so delicious!!! Not chewy, perfect in taste, and the Chick Pea (not even sure what it was exactly but was like hummus but even better) Salad, Dip (?) that came with it was so tasty! The only thing it was missing was bread to go with it.
Service was good, nothing that caught my eye superior or bad and I waffled on giving this place a 5 star because of price. Prices were just a notch above reasonable but I felt satisfied with my meal, It won’t be my go-​to neighbourhood resto unless Im feeling a bit more spendy! Just to give you an idea of price: 2 pizzas 1 entrée = $ 21 per Person with tax and tip, no beverages.

Uh, Jessie Palmer was eating right next to us. No, that doesn’t mean i’m impressed, nor does it mean that I’m a fan. I’m neither. But i do watch the Bachelor (ya, go ahead, judge me, i don’t care) and was just hoping I would hear something juicy that I could share with friends with similar bad taste in tv. No such luck. He seemed totally vapid. OK… now the food!
I had NO complaints with the food. We split an arugula salad that was large and mainly arugula (a good thing), the grilled octopus which was yummy albeit a tad chewy (hard to escape) and the marazinna pizza which was delicious although a bit too much ricotta. Overall the pizza had a great thin crust and we had a great evening.
My main issue lies with the waitress who had a BAD attitude. Never smiled once, seemed annoyed to have to ask what we wanted and took awhile with the bill. Maybe she was distracted by the overinflation level of her lips and chest… ooooh did i just go there?! Ya, i guess I did. That was low. I know. Sorry. But… whatever.

i nice little discovery!
so glad i tried the pizza but the pasta on the menu looked good too!
the place is really cute, the ambiance nice… and the service was perfect!
i will for sure return.
i had the pizza+prociutto+ricotta+basil and arugula… i kept thinking how amazing it could have been with burata instead of ricotta but the ricotta did not displease!

J’aurai tellement voulu donner une meilleure cote à ce charmant resto italien de la Petite Bourgogne. Dès que j’y suis entrée, j’ai adoré le décor à la fois intime et romantique, mais aussi relaxe et décontracté. Avoir une vue sur le gros four à pizza à partir de presque n’importe quel siège du resto donne même l’impression d’être assit sur le bord d’un feu de foyer. Puis le menu! Rempli d’ingrédients frais avec des combinaisons classiques, puis d’autres beaucoup plus imaginatives. Un pain na-​an avec du saumon fumé, des concombres et une sauce blanche? Oh que oui! Une pizza blanche aux champignons et truffes? Bien sûr! Un ragoût d’escargots et de rapinis. Miam! La nourriture a été aussi bonne qu’elle en donnait l’impression et j’ai adoré le concept du menu régulier ajouté au menu du jour qui est affiché sur un grand tableau noir. J’ai aussi trouvé les prix très raisonnables.
À ce point là, vous vous demandez probablement pourquoi je fais ma difficile et je né donne pas plus d’étoiles que ça. Il y a deux choses qui m’ont achalées pendant la soirée, et elles sont importantes.
1) La mosus de télévision. Elle né fait pas de sens dans ce genre de resto. Tout le monde y était en couple ou en groupe d’amis pour un souper agrémenté de belles conversations. Ça n’était même pas un soir de hockey, donc on y jouait des émissions du «Food Chanel» sans le son. Si la télé avait été fermée, je né l’aurais probablement même pas remarquée et le resto aurait eu une étoile de plus.
2) Le service était extrêmement lent plus le repas avançait. Nos desserts étaient terminés, nos verres d’eaux vides depuis au moins 20 minutes (il a aussi fallu qu’on demande pour nos remplissages tout au long du souper même si une personne avait l’air d’y être dédié sans n’avoir à servir de table), puis on a dû demandé pour la facture à 2 reprises car on nous avait oublié. Et il y a même une fois ou le serveur m’a clairement vu lui faire un signe parce que je voulais demander la facture mais il s’est retourné pour aller derrière le bar jaser avec d’autres serveurs. Pas fort.
Donc, si on fermait la télé et que le service avait été plus attentif et rapide, surtout vers la fin du repas, cette place se serait méritée un 4 étoiles au moins (peut-​être même 5). J’espère y retourner quand même parce que j’ai aimé la nourriture, mais j’espère y avoir un meilleur service pour leur donner une autre étoile qu’ils pourraient facilement se mériter. Tout ce que je voulais, c’était les payer pour continuer ma soirée mais on dirait qu’ils né voulaient pas de mon argent! Étrange…

Simple but delicious was my suitable and sufficient margarita pizza with crust that was crispy all the way through, and thick, sweet tomato sauce topped with very nice mozzarella.
Bruschetta was refreshingly fresh and flavourful, and my bresaola plate came with a nice heap of arugula. Two of shared the pizza and three appetizer, which was a good amount of food. I guess the third appetizer wasn’t so remarkable as I really can’t remember what it was… The dining experience was overall very pleasant — lovely atmosphere that is classy in an understated way but still casual.
Oh, and a fun Italian-​centric cocktail menu with campari, citrus and prosecco as prominent ingredients.
