One of my new favorite pasta places in montreal ! The restaurant has lovely ambience, and the owner is so cute and quirky as well!
The way you order is that first you decide your pasta sauce choice, and then decide which type of pasta you want
We asked about wine options, and I think it was BYOW, but there was a dep right across the street and if you’re unsure about what to get, the owner has recommendations as well.
There’s so many pasta sauce options that my friends and I took forever to decide (as usual), but I finally opted for the bow tie pasta with marinara, bacon, mushrooms, grilled chicken, white wine, and cream and it was delicious! I also tried a bite of my friends clam (and I don’t remember what else) linguini, which was very tasty as well.
Portions are generous, and my friends and I food comaed for at least half an hour after we finished eating
The owner was super funny because he’d always tease us with desserts before he brought them to the table which ordered them
Definitely coming back here again hehe

La visite à ce restaurant est une expérience en sois. Les pates sont cuites a la perfection, mais le serveur est un pince sans rire qui vous jeteras hors des chantiers… à visité de nouveau

Came here a few times with my boyfriend when he still lived in the area. Honestly, best Italian restaurant… all the pasta is great. This place specializes in pasta, so don’t expect any pizzas or anything. You can’t go wrong with any. They have I think over 30 different kinds of pasta including seafood, vegetarian, traditional etc. Presentation is really well done too! Ambiance is great, low lighting (romantic!) small (so reserve!) and service is excellent. Our waiter drew on my mat what the types of pasta were because I didn’t know the difference since the names were unfamiliar to me. (ex. rotini/​linguini etc) I was a total pasta noob back then. Anyway he was very sharp and witty, definitely knew his stuff. It’s so inexpensive here I mean you can walk away with a full stomach for less than $ 20. Some pasta are more expensive but its not by much. This little Italian spot is worth checking out. It’s right next to Verdun metro about 1 minute away. So it’s very convenient. Go here if you are a pasta lover! Oh and btw it’s a mom and pops kind of place.
