Restaurant Graziella in Montreal

4.5 stars. Their lunch menu is perfect, great service. I really enjoyed my experience. One of my favorite restaurants in Montréal

One of the best , no doubt!

Superb experience, like in Italy! The burrata is excellent, the pasta is very tasty and the products are fresh. The server was very patient and smiling. To recommend.

I loved it!

What a DISAPPOINTMENT! The prices are way too high for the quality offered. STARTER - Half a burrata with a few tomatoes for $35 (see photo). MAIN DISH - A plate of pasta with just a few tortellini, and another of scallops as a main course, which only contains 3 scallops. DESSERT - A cheesecake supposed to be accompanied by a blueberry coulis... but without a blueberry coulis. An extremely disappointing restaurant that I do not recommend at all. There are much better choices in Montreal and even on McGill Street. For a bill of more than $100 per person (without drinks), its a steal. Dont let yourself be fooled!

The quality of the food is very good, beautiful execution and fresh produce. The portions are small though. When you receive a bill for more than $350 and you are charged $10 for a small container of bread and $8 for house water (without brand) that has supposedly been filtered, its an insult that ends badly a good meal and a beautiful evening. Especially without prior warning. In short, there are plenty of good restaurants in the area that dont use this kind of tactic to inflate the bill.

I really like the classics and of course Italian cuisine. So I couldnt wait to try this place which has been on my restaurant list for years. The food is simple and quality, well made. Our favorite dish of the three-course meal was the tortellini with parmesan cream - tender and delicate. The second left us a little more indifferent (including a slightly dry stuffed meat). The wine pairing was delicious. There are some great finds to be made on this side. On the other hand, the service was deplorable. Its such a shame for an evening that we hope will be pleasant. Slow service, lack of attention. Concretely things like the aperitif glass (here a prosecco) which arrives at the same time as the first wine and dish (the empty champagne glasses waited for the famous liquid for almost 10 minutes). Asking for the basket of bread that was forgotten, wine leaking down the side of the glass during service, placing an unclean knife on the table, waiter who is not sure of the composition of certain dishes on the menu... Disappointment.

Fancy and gastronomique! It s an experience and don t go there if you re just hungry!

Wow!!! A big BRAVO to the chefs, I have never eaten good pasta like this, not to mention the osso buco which melts in the mouth, a service of superior quality

Exceptional and flawless evening at Graziella. We enjoyed the appetizers and desserts, including many dishes from Northern Italy. Piedmont was particularly faithfully represented there. A special mention for the Agnolotti del Plin with parmesan cream which was a favorite. Thanks to Maxime for one of the best services in Montreal. His knowledge of the excellent wine list and his suggestions were remarkable.

Fantastic Restaurant, great food and atmosphere, need to try

Awesome food served with grace and elegance. After 10 years of coming to Montreal it s still my favourite.

Food was ok! No more, service good, price very expensive especially for the outside menu dishes, be sure to ask for the prices as they don t tell you up front. Avoid côte de beouf! we were very disappointed for 150$ dish

Mixed experience and below what one would expect from a restaurant aiming to be upscale. The setting is great, the atmosphere is cozy and pleasant. However, the rest is disappointing. Several dishes not available, ridiculously small portions for the price which is very high, a lack of flavor and a waiter who was barely pleasant, even if the rest of the staff was very friendly. To summarize, not a bad restaurant but according to our experience it is not worth the price.

Fish ravioli!

Superb food with excellent service.

Nothing special

Great Italian food with very friendly staff. Some of the best squid ink pasta and Ossobuco Ive ever had. My young kids loved the marshmallow like gnocchi (their words).

Was there as part of an SAQ event. Service staff was great despite dealing with a terrible heat wave and poor ventilation.

An exceptional evening with friends! We had a blast! One of the best restaurants in Montreal! THANKS

If you like perfectly executed food and consistency you will love this place.

One of my favorite meals in Montreal. Had a wonderful pasta and mocktail here. The service was good and the atmosphere was relaxing. I would come back.

WoW great first experience with my 13 year old daughter and my dad! Impeccable friendly service, a big thank you especially to Xavier who served us with great elegance, thank you!

Our Server Stéphane was exceptional and very hospitable and helpful. From the moment we walked in, greeted and sat our table. He is hands on, making wonderful exceptions making our evening very enjoyable. From the apetizers to the main course, ossobuco topping it off with delicious sweet dessert. Look forward to getting back to Montreal and making reserverations.

We had a private room for my father s birthday. There were eight of us, four elderly people, and half of the party was a half hour late because of old people moving slowly, lol. Our lateness and general high maintenance in no way affected the absolutely superlative service Amma gave us. We had the room for the night and were treated like royalty. It was super quiet and luxurious and for several hours we were spoiled rotten. Anna was super kind, flexible, knowledgeable, funny, and just a total gift of a server on what could have been a really awkward evening. Oh! And the food is TO DIE FOR. Among us we had almost everything on the menu, and every single thing was amazing. Thank you so much! Families can be difficult and I was nervous af, and this was perfect. Very grateful.

This was a memorable experience to celebrate a family birthday. The decor, music, atmosphere were splendid. The service was outstanding. The meal was more than delicious. Each course brought another delectable surprise. Even the mocktail was a revelation. This was my first visit but defintely not my last. Bravo! Grazie mille:)

We went for my boyfriends birthday, and the ambience was quite romantic with its dimmed light and quiet atmosphere. The staff was friendly, and our waiter professionally funny. The food was good. I was a little surprised to be charged for the bread, but, as it was 4$, it wasnt too big of a deal for me.

Excellent service and delicious food. Great wine pairings.

I wont hide the fact that Im not a fan of Italian cuisine. Its probably the fact that it only has 4 stars. I was there for a business meal in a private room in the basement. In my opinion, its one of the best places, its quiet and conducive to discussion. Impeccable service!

The cocktails are original and delicious. All the dishes are wow! The food at this place is the reason you have taste buds!!

Alright

I loved the experience at this restaurant! the quality and freshness of the food, home cooking, service and very welcoming team, I highly recommend, the best pasta I have eaten to date! Buon anno!

Excellent. Loved this place and will revisit

Fresh oysters mmmmmm

This was an amazing experience. The food was exceptional. We got to taste nougat from Italy from I believe to be the owner herself. Definitely would go back.

Service was ok for us. I found everything good but not spectacular in any sense. We spent around 700$ for 3 guys with 2 bottles of wine

It was okay. I wanted to try it but it didnt have that much of an effect on me.

7-course gourmet service for the New Year. Excellent. Land-sea veal sweetbreads, lobster ravioli. Ricotta canelloni. Lotte. Exquisite flavors and exceptional fresh products. Very nice varied cellar to match your dishes

Nicholas

Too salty, presentation good, not to return

Great dinner meal. Impeccable flavor and presentation. A smile from the waiters would have given a perfect score I recommend

Super cute, cozy, delicious food and great staff. Would highly recommend.

Ok, so the overall experience wasnt for me..the portions were very small..the menu was very limited..the prices werent cheap. But the service and atmosphere was good

I had the most perfect date with my boyfriend here, very friendly service, waiter gave us great suggestions, portions are small but im a picky eater the food was so good and fresh. we will definetly come back!

Incredible service, masterful dish. It was perfect thank you

We enjoyed all the dishes and Stephanes impeccable service. An excellent restaurant in Montreal. Andre Laperriere.

Super good. Calm and very generous team of advice and services. Superb experience. Cheesecake is divine.

Excellent sea bass

Mrs. GRAZIELLA was cooking. What an awesome meal!

Delicious. The salmon trout was amazing.

Seriously, avoid. Decent quality, high price and everything is extra, even still water ($16)

Excellent food and fantastic team

it was ok, overpriced but it s old port. most disappointingly was that the lobster pasta had chunks of completely uncooked spaghetti and the staff didn t seem to be concerned about it at all

Love this place!

Delicious lunch! Plates are not overly filled. Well proportioned. Excellent cappuccino! I even bought there bean coffee.

This is a top notch restaurant (with prices to match). I had the sweetbreads and they were absolutely delicious. The service is friendly yet unobtrusive, and the atmosphere is very nice.

Very beautiful and cozy! But, I did not like the food.

We loved every meal in Montréal except this place. I don t mind paying high prices but we felt nickeled and dimed the whole meal. The service was not good and the food ok. Everything was extra. Our young daughter asked if they had anything with just plain pasta and marinara and they said no. So she ordered the $36 stuffed pasta. Minutes later we see the someone else getting spaghetti with marinara and we ask if she can have instead. They said no because our order was already in but we could pay $25 more for it. The waiter asked us if we would like some bread with our meal but didn t tell us we would be charged. They even charged us $8 per person for water. $300 for pasta and two glasses Of wine. Avoid this place - there are so many incredible restaurants in Montréal. No need to pay these prices for meh food and feeling ripped off.

The most amazing experience. The ambience, the maitre D the entire staff (extremely professional and very nice) and especially Edwardo, the waiter who made our experience so amazing. Edwardo is so knowledgeable and his service extremely professional. Looking forward to going back and have another amazing experience.

A great fusion between Italy and Canada, the Pacific Salmon is a deligh and the appetizers are numerous and generous.

Nice Italian restaurant. The antipasti plate is nice.

I went there once on an anniversary. I ate for two hours and the food was very fresh.

Very nice family driven restaurant. Food was excellent

Amazing service. Loved the wine suggestion and pasta

Very good food and fancy vibe. Quite pricey, but the quality is there.

Following a last minute cancellation, me and my boyfriend went to dinner at Graziellas for our two-year anniversary, they were super welcoming despite our late arrival at their place. Their service was impeccable, very professional and warm. All the dishes were delicious, the pasta was fresh and the sauce was excellent. The scallops melted in your mouth. We had a great evening!

Well eaten, well drunk, great service! Beautiful holiday menu, fresh mozzarella, succulent ravioli and what about the cheesecake

Very little elaborate menu and value for money

Too expensive! The entries are tiny and their prices are exorbitant...

The best Italian restaurant in Montreal! If you are in the city, you must experience the Graziella gastronomic experience. The PASTA is impeccable, the seafood tastes of the Mediterranean, the meats transport you to Italy To do again: OH YES!!!!! TO DO AGAIN ALL THE TIME!!!

All I have to say is the overall service doesn t meet the price we spend ! We have a group of 11 spend 2.5k , there is even no bread to serve , to me everyone is like a tasting menu , but the food taste really soso , and during the whole meal , I called twice the waiter , didn t hear me and we have to serve the wine ourselves some time ?? Anyhow , my first time and last time , Thanks , oh , and mention of that , the only dessert choice is chocolate whatever ? No tiramisu , no other dessert choice pick , excuse me ? I assume tiramisu comes originally Italy , isn t it a italien restaurant ?

Alright! Personalized service and cozy atmosphere

The food was exceptional and the service was top-notch. I really cant praise the professionalism and courtesy of the staff enough. I tried the octopus and sea bass, and both were absolutely impeccable. At the suggestion of our server, I paired my meal with an exquisite Californian Chardonnay, and the combination was sublime. The coffee was excellent, and the pavola with local strawberries was just perfect. This is an easy five-star review to write.

The waiter was rude, complained about the 15% tip only 9 dollars?! Food was bland.

Somewhat original Italian restaurant but perhaps looking for a winning formula! The head waiter speaks Italian perfectly (there were 3 Italian people in my group to judge) and is extremely friendly. On the other hand, the experience will not remain indelible! A plus, the decor is of a good standard. Unfortunately, you have to pay a certain amount of money to consume.

Wow wow wow the food was perfectly prepared, exceeded our expectations. Our server Stephen was super helpful and made the perfect meal even better. The wine list was extensive, lots of great choices. Thank for a great experience.

First time back since the most recent COVID shutdown. Food and service are as good as ever, but the menu is *much* shorter and the prices have moved up. If you want wine with dinner, plan on $100+ per bottle.

Very bland, poorly balanced, extremely expensive, and sad for this price to have food that does so little to work. a physically inedible dessert because it was a ball of gelatin. (We tested it on the plate and it bounced ) You will eat better and for less with impasto and moccione.

Took the 50$ lunch menu (+5 to 10$ extra unless you take the spagettis) Left empty stomach after spending 180$ for lunch for two ppl, (without alcohol). I would have order more food but there was nothing on the menu. Very average soup, tiny cod fish portion with 4 aspargusses, very buttery, tasteless. My friend had two mini cannellonis as his main course. Dry baguette bread. Service was good but quite slow. Had to eat again somewhere else an hour after. Never again.

Very nice experience, delicious from A to Z. I was dreaming of pasta with cream sauce, but he already had none when I ordered at 7:30 p.m. Very few options on the menu and although the waitress was nice, she had a bit of an attitude and that bothered me.

Great food and stellar service. Always a great selection of wines

It was great. Food, service, atmosphere.

Superb restaurant. Very pleasant service

Simply beautiful. One of the best if not the best service in Montreal. In addition to an incredible wine list and tasty dishes.

Perfect meal, perfect service. The menu has limited choices but everything we had was exceptional.

Great food and fabulous service within a sophisticated atmosphere. I highly recommend this place.

We held our wedding reception at Graziella Restaurant in their beautiful private room upstairs on October 8th. We discovered Graziella in August 2021 in the middle of a pandemic as we began planning our wedding. Our choice fell on this restaurant following our first dinner for two: the exceptional service and refined cuisine immediately charmed us. A big thank you to the incredible Graziella team, especially Pierre and Stéphane. You brought to life everything we dreamed of for our wedding reception: being able to share great food, attentive service and a memorable evening with our guests. We particularly appreciated their great flexibility and the care they take in personalizing their service. We cant wait to go back! Vegetarian options: Option offered for vegan guests

Beautiful decor. But several drawbacks: a rather thin menu with 3 choices of starters, 3 main courses, 2 desserts. The meat portions are correct, the presentation is neat. The pasta dishes are tasty but with a presentation without the slightest effort: not a single herb, not a shaving of cheese, nothing. It s a trait of the house to focus on simplicity! » . It s not simplicity, it s a lack of effort. We asked for wine suggestions, and were presented with 3 whose prices varied between $260 and $225 per bottle . Bread is not included. It s homemade bread! » A bombastic service, no presentation of plates during service - an expected gesture for a table of this caliber. Toilets: at 9:30 p.m., no more toilet paper, no more hand towels, no recent maintenance of the spaces. Value for money: too much, too little.

Three bon merci to xavier super service

Excellent service and food.

For our Christmas dinner , our choice was Graziella. We have never been disappointed. All the items used to prepare our meal were well packaged and everything was accompanied by an explanatory sheet. Really easy to follow. What can I say other than everything was so delicious. A 5-course gourmet dinner at home that made us happy and very proud of our choice. A huge thank you to everyone who helped make our Christmas dinner an unforgettable moment despite these difficult times!

A Mother s Day menu at $70/person should inspire us! This was, unfortunately, not the case. Correct, nothing more!

Great refined Italian Cuisine. Loved the delicate taste of Cappelletti al Cappone and the caramelized Apricots dessert

Phenomenal service, best in Montreal! If you are lucky enough to be seated in Stefan s section, you will be in for a treat! Immediately you feel as though you arrived at a good friend s house. The ambiance is warm, with a simple sophistication, which is extremely comfortable and very inviting. Stefan was lovely, offered excellent recommendations, impeccable service. Hugo offered eloquent descriptions as dishes were presented. Exquisitely prepared, every bite mouthwatering. We had the scallop appetizer and veal appetizer to begin, both were delectable. An asparagus dish, halibut entree and pistachio pesto spaghetti entree, all outstanding. An exceptional evening! Safe environment, sanitizer and sink in foyer, tables spaced, staff all wore masks, guests did as well when they were not seated. Street parking possible, several parking lots available, lovely to walk around after dinner. Cheers!

I dont go to Montreal often, but one of the restaurants I like to go to is Graziella. First of all, for the attentive welcome from Pierre Jullien, Graziellas partner, and the entire team. Then, because I always have trouble choosing my menu, I like the choice of the menu so much. Graziella cooks with soul, generosity, patience, refinement. She is very kind too! A place that leaves a lasting memory with each visit, whether for lunch with a friend, or to treat yourself in the evening. And above all, you must let yourself be guided by Pierre and his team when it comes to wine pairings. They are always impeccable. Graziellas cellar is full of treasures!

Fine Italian cuisine. Dont miss the shrimp bisque, and the incomparable Osso Bocco accompanied by the delectable Brunello. Sublime!!!! Outstanding Services.

We went to eat there on July 29 for our wedding anniversary. It was a delight from starter to dessert. I am celiac and they were able to accommodate me, I ate there like a queen! The lobster risotto was fantastic. Everything was superb! The service was impeccable! We will return, guaranteed! THANKS !!

Great italian restaurant and impeccable service. I had the best snow crab pasta ever !

All the dishes we tasted were excellent (veal, scallops, tortelli and tuna steak), the ingredients were fresh and the service was impeccable.

Very nice meal here. Staff was very friendly, for was good, we had a really nice dinner experience. We ordered À la carte, and we enjoyed our dishes very much.

We discovered this restaurant with the lunch menu. The starters are original and delicious and the tuna was literally to die for, even the vegetables were cooked to perfection. The service was excellent. There is little choice, however. There are choices included in the lunch menu but others with extra $$$ including tuna ($35 lunch menu + 22) and scallop starter (+$4). +14$ for dessert. We had a blast!

Great atmosphere and food

As always, the experience at Graziella was exceptional with fresh local products. The outdoor terrace (summer) offers a dynamic environment but not too loud or crowded. I had the Lobster sandwich, perfect for the season. The Lobster was cooked and seasoned to perfection. Simply delightful. The sardines were great as well with a very tasty caramelized onions.

A very good address for special occasions and business lunches. The pastas are all handmade with great delicacy by chef Graziella and her team. The daily specials are always very refined. We must not forget the exceptional wine list maintained by the team of sommeliers. The food and wine pairing was perfect. Definitely one of the best gastronomic addresses in MTL.

Great service and great food.

Magnificent Italian cuisine and superb selection of wines.

Excellent Food, good service!

Excellent attention to quality ingredients, preparation, and plating. Attentive and professional service. Extensive wine list and a selection of quality grappa. It can get a little loud when busy but otherwise a delightful experience.

Decent restaurant, terrible service. We had a reservation for 2 at the bar. The host was very gracious (we were early and was hoping we can come in early and start with drinks) and he was more than willing to accommodate us. The person behind the bar who poured our champagne was very friendly and likeable. Its too bad these two gentlemen were not our server. Our server was rude and condescending. Its been a week of eating at most of the Montreal spots (we were at Au Pied de Cochon the night before) and we were not sure how hungry were. Our plan was to order some antipasti and primi and go from there. Our server was put off by our decision, rudely informed us that the kitchen needs all out orders right away. I used to be a director of a 5 diamond hotel (with a five diamond restaurant) and I have never told any of my servers to behave or serve this way. We informed our server that we will stick with our original order (share an antipasti and a secondi) and our server rudely informed us that it wasnt enough! We were taken aback by his rudeness so we asked him to give us a few more minutes. He acted so insulted that we actually considered ordering an antipasti, primi and secondi each! I was also so angry that we considered just paying for our champagne and going down the street to eat somewhere else. We stuck with our original order, ordered a bottle of wine and left.

Excellent service but too expensive it lacked flavor

Excellent

Delicious lunch + organic wine! Excellent value!

expensive. menu is limited

An excellent place to eat.

Awesome food and staff

Simply excellent! Impeccable service. Pleasant atmosphere.

Excellent lunch menu! Impeccable service!

Excellent culinary experience. Delicious food and awesome ambiance

Best contemporary Italian restaurant in Montreal. Sublime wine list. Friendly staff. Highly recommended.

Very good meal. Customer services ++

Excellent food- its a classic of this street. Always full. Reservations required.

Excelente food and great service. Will definitely return.

Fine dining Italian experience. You pay for the price!

Just a great place to rat and be w friends or business lunch

Nice atmosphere and good food

Montreal at its finest!!

Super good Italian restaurant for lovers. The dishes are fine and delicious. This is true gourmet cuisine. To redo

An extraordinary experience for the taste buds, outstanding service, the restaurant is very beautiful, very warm, I will definitely come back.

Experience was very good. Appetizers, Grilled octopus and zucchini flowers, were excellent! Mains, lobster pasta and osso bocco were very good but not at the same level as the apps. Would definitely go back and most certainly worth a try if you havent been here yet.

Excellent, from starter to dessert, sublime! One of the best restaurants in Montreal.

32$ lunch

One of the best Italian restaurants in Montreal, perhaps the best!!

Excellent dish, very good service, recommended place

Great food, small portions

We started with the grilled octopus and burrata as appetizers, I cant begin to tell you how tasty they were. Very well done presentation wise, and very complex flavors! The main course was the gnocchi and rabbit ragu pappardelle, those were even better! The food was perfect. The staff and decor made it all just a fantastic experience. Recommend!

Restaurant well located in Montreal. The conference room located on the upper floor is large and pleasant. On the other hand, the room located in the basement is small and dark. The food is okay, nothing more. Some dishes are delicious and others are simply dud, lacking in consistency.

Fresh pasta. Quality ingredients. Fine dining. Great for a special occasion.

The food is absolutely to die for and the service is spectacular!

Really tasty, amazing cuisine, service is great just the place is a little bit noisy.

Refined Italian cuisine. Cozy and friendly place. Were having a great time

Perfect lunch with a great ambiance. The wine pairing was impeccable. Cant wait to go back.

Amazing food and great ambiance.

Best Italian in Montreal.

I went there for the first time with my family, we all loved it, it was really delicious! The decor, the service everything was perfect. Thank you I will come back
