The food was delicious, but the service was quite slow and less attentive because they prioritized the terrace. There were so many servers and all of them were basically always outside.We went for lunch/brunch on a Saturday. There was no need to wait and we immediately got a place inside just next to the window. There, the tables are quite small and can maximum welcome three persons. The waitress only gave us one menu for three, not a very good start. After we ordered a pistachio latte and a normal latte, we had to chase after our waitress to order. All their attention was on the terrace.The lattes were given in glasses that weren't made for lattes/coffee. They don't keep the warmth of the drinks as long, so our drinks got cold in minutes. After we finally got our orders in, our knives were dirty. Fortunately, the food quickly arrived.The big salad Cesar was good and creamy. Their small pasta was a small portion but delicious. I think the pasta was made fresh and was cooled al dente. The focaccia was fluffy and soft and full of toppings.Overall, the food was tasty and the prices aren't overpriced. I liked the half portion sizes. The service, however, was the biggest disappointment.
My friend and I stopped here by chance on a busy Monday for lunch time and their outdoor terrace was what attracted us to sit down for a meal. The staff was very friendly and the food was quite delicious. The appetizers were tasty (not shown in photos, but we ordered focaccia, burrata, prosciutto) & the cocktails were good too, so the overall experience was enjoyable. Unfortunately, one out of two pasta dishes was undercooked (too hard to chew) but the other one was a true al dente cooked to perfection. For the price we paid (around $58 per person, tax and tips included), we were expecting flawless pasta dishes to blow us away, but in our case, the appetizers stole the spotlight. I would personally give here another chance sometime in the future due to the overall pleasant experience.
Everything and Focaccia. Love it.
Very nice atmosphere and great section of wine&cider with good price! Also very delicious pasta!!!!
Ok, so we arrived tonight on a quiet Sunday.We though the place looked nice and decided to try it.Nice atmosphere, but disappointing experience overall. The waitress was nice but spent more time chatting with her friends than taking care of her customers, it took over 20min to great us and never asked us how was the food or anything.About the food… The octopus tasted nice but the skin was very rubbery and over cooked. Main course was good but portions were very small and left us hungry. We ordered a risotto and it was so incredibly salty. Inedible.. we only ate the clams in it. The waitress was nice enough to take it off our bill, which was still pretty pricey for the quality and quantity.Sorry to say, we will not go back.
Just a perfect little place for a bite or a drink.
Full of amorous feeling of Italian restaurant. A great handmade pasta. Order seafood pasta with original taste, not white sauce. only simple and plain olive oil with some seafood soup , never overpowering, very appetizing.

This is the “new” hotspot in St Henri! My friend and I went on a Wednesday night just after 7pm and it was super packed with a lineup. They were so nice and allowed us to wait behind the bar near the espresso machine. The bartender Chloe took really good care of us. We were able to have wine, fried olives and their homemade focaccia (delicious!) to tide us over. We waited just about an hour and sat at a communal table (no dividers). What I loved is they offer half portions at very reasonable prices for their homemade pasta. I had the creamy pesto and it was amazing. We also shared a roquette salad which I found lacked flavour and was quite bitter but my friend enjoyed it. We also shared the tiramisu which was excellent. Good vibes and food all around!
Very good pasta salad and service ! Simple and well balanced ? only downside was the desert.
