We hesitated a bit about this restaurant because of the 4.2 rating… but, ultimately, decided to give it a try because it was more conveniently located than another we considered.
The atmosphere is a bit younger than is suitable for us, being, on average, over 60. There was a DJ. I think that covers it.
But the service was excellent, and the food was exceptional. Maybe Montreal has a biased scale, being a cosmopolitan city. I'm just from Boulder, Colorado, a place previously considered to be "foodie."
We sat at the bar. Sort of like a chef's table. It was fun watching the young fellow making the pizzas and managing them in the wood-fired pizza oven.
I had a Tiamo salad, the sausage rigatoni, and a chocolate mousse. All were delicious. The salad was larger than I expected; the rigatoni perhaps a bit smaller, but really just the right size; and the mousse was fantastic! It was light and wonderful. I hope I can sleep after that.
You should try this place. Don't be fooled by the 4.2.
Also, the total expense included a couple drinks (each) and a bottle of wine, in case you're looking at the budget.
