Découvrez notre restaurant italien PACINI de Rimouski. Notre cuisine italienne authentique saura vous charmer à chacune de vos visites!
Kim 41 was our server and she was amazing. I loved her sense of humour and interaction with us 🙂
Food was good but so expensif was a little bit slow not my kind of restaurant
We were on a short trip to Rimouski. And it's been (I think) 30+ years I have been to to the "bread bar". It's still there but the decoration/atmosphere is really good and enhanced. Food was excellent. Ravioli for me and carbonara for my wife. Also it was part of an Hotel. We were at comfort inn without an inside restaurant. The move was 👍
Stumbled upon this spot in Rimouski. Food was delicious, but prices are high for what you get. We are strictly english and are here for work. Felt very unwelcome since we couldn't speak French even though we acknowledged the staff with pieces we know.
If you have ever seen the South Park skit “welcome to the authentic Italiano experience, can I offer you some pizza poppers” this restaurant is it. Our service was good. We were there with young kids and they were wonderful. Prices were reasonable and cheap for kids. Service was quick. There are visible TVs everywhere which is a huge down side for us at least. We ate well in huge portions. Mostly the food was fresh and hot and tasty. But do not ever show it to an Italian person. It is less Italian than Dominos Pizza. This place serves American food with québécois twists. Calling it Italian is knowingly disingenuous. The most baffling part is the “bread bar” where you spread flavoured oil spreads onto commercial sandwich bread and then heat it on a shared grill that is not frequently cleaned and sits all day burning oil and garlic into a smoky mess.
My breakfast experience was absolutely outstanding, leaving me thoroughly impressed by the exceptional service and attentiveness of the staff. The most memorable aspect of the meal was the ability to toast a diverse selection of bread to absolute perfection, allowing me to relish the delectable flavors and delightful textures that resulted from this process.
I had an exceptional breakfast experience, where the service and attentiveness of the staff truly impressed me. The highlight of the breakfast was the option to toast a variety of bread to perfection, allowing me to savour the delightful flavours and textures that emerged from this process. The breakfast itself was impeccable, showcasing the establishment's culinary expertise. I left the restaurant completely satisfied, grateful for the excellent service and the opportunity to enjoy perfectly toasted bread that added an extra layer of enjoyment to my meal.
My dish was so good and filling I ended up not being able to finish it, brought it home, and was as good as on the table, which was d i v i n e. The staff was friendly and very helpful. Our waiter, Jerome; was incredibly courteous and kind. Definitely one of my most favorite dining experiences ever.
Wow! Caroline, co-owner! Perfect! Perfect Food!
Beef tartare wow!!! WOW service!!!! I recommend it to you all
Thanks to Anne we love you
Clean restaurant. Delicious bread bar. We were in a hurry. We are not from the region. We were served in record time. It is very appreciated. The meat sauce for the spaghetti, however, is ordinary for the price. Pacini is part of the Quebec decor after all...
Great location, quiet, clean, friendly staff.
Staple
. . !
The meal was very good but the employees forgot my sauce
Well certainly the food is good, but what amazes me is that the staff is so warm with personal attention
The atmosphere and service are very good. I like the bread bar idea. We took the package with the Navigateur hotel for dinner and lunch which is practical. I tried the pasta with cod, but it wasnt my favorite. The lasagna was good!
Atmosphere of the restaurant 5/5, The service by Vanessa excellent 7/5, We did not have alcohol so overall the bill was very reasonable. 5/5.
Very good service
Very warm welcome, the restaurant was full but the waitress quickly found us a table for three, very well placed. A beautiful atmosphere, lots of space, spacious, we had excellent service and hearty dishes. Nothing to say. Concerning the bread bar, always a pleasure to be able to toast your slices of bread with its different butters and herbs. In short, a great experience. Ideal as a meal before our marathon.
The waitress Anne should learn to manage her time better. She runs like a chicken with no head compared to the other waitresses. His service is not very courteous and really leaves something to be desired. If I return to this establishment and she is my waitress, I will definitely eat elsewhere.
Perfect place for a good dinner with friends! Outstanding service and our waitress Caroline had great energy! We had a great time!
Delicious quick and what can I say about Caroline just woweeee thank you for the beautiful evening and good food
Nice atmosphere, ok service. Food nothing special and above all too expensive for what it is. Pacini = a St-Hubert who shows off.
Lunch (Solo+) was very ordinary for the price. The egg was overcooked. The mini crepes were half dry. The rest was all beautiful. The waitress gave perfect service. Parking: Nice free parking. It is easy to access and park.
Impeccable personal service Smiling very good restaurant
Warm and delicious! We were served by Vanessa, an incredible waitress. The food is excellent even if the starter was not hot enough for my taste, also the possibility of choosing your bread and butter then having it toasted as you wish is great. THANKS
a little sad to have a not very welcoming welcome otherwise good food at least the server made up for it with good service Parking: Easy and close
Personalized service, 5 star cleanliness. Excellent food. A must in Rimouski
very good service very good meal (table d hôte)
My favorite in town. The meals are great, the wine very good. Excellent service and well-deserved tips. Even the butter choices at the bread bar are super good. The only negative points are that we sometimes find ourselves very crowded at the bread bar, its a little stuffy, but not a big deal! And the fact that the last time I went there I was told that they didnt do a tono crudo salad starter even though I clearly remember eating it and simply loving this culinary marvel. They probably dont make them anymore, which is a shame.
once again history repeats itself ..,,. I arrive there excited for the bread bar. I order a $25 dish of dough which disappoints me, I eat 4-5 slices of bread that is way too buttered and I leave. if there are two of you, take your $50 and go to the iga next door to treat yourself for the week
A big thank you to the waitresses for their kindness and their explanations! We had a great time and ate very well! I recommend!! Vegetarian options: There are pizzas or pasta dishes without meat and with a variety of vegetables Dietary restrictions: There are gluten-free options Parking: The parking lot is large Kid-friendliness: Yes the restaurant is suitable for children
Quality and personalized service, thank you again!!
We were early for dinner so relaxed atmosphere and very beautiful decor. Very good service and very good, hot and quick meal
A bit expensive but I really liked it
Lr shrimp risotto is a dish to discover...a real delight. Worthy of great restaurants.
I was there for lunch. The food was just okay: flavorless and lukewarm. The service was very good though.
Disappointed, the veal escalope is the worst I have eaten and yet the most expensive I have paid. For $43 Im not very impressed. The service is great but the food is really disappointing and the flavors are dull. Its so long that customers have left before having their dishes.
Impeccable service and delicious food!
Impeccable service from Anthony (efficient and very polite). We were a group of 9, and everyone was satisfied.
The best service I have received. Impeccable, courteous and exemplary kindness. Pacini in Rimouski offers excellent value for money. The dessert menu should be revised. Vegetarian options: Okay Parking: Okay
Thank you Caro!!!...super good restaurant...attentive service...
Meals, not at the same time
Service excellent
Our waitress Caroline is so friendly that we just want to go back! Our dishes were tasty, excellent service!
Delicious! Good service, not a long wait for the number of people present
The crusted cod is succulent and combined with Caroline Chassés attentive service its a winning recipe for a great meal.
Great experience.
Very nice restaurant, excellent food, impeccable atmosphere.
Best restaurant in town.
Best service I have received. Thank you for your hard work and your beautiful smile. Very warm.
Excellent time spending at Pacini in Rimouski. Very good food and the unlimited bread bar always wonderful. What can I say about the service, a pretty young man who is super kind, efficient and brilliant. I love this restaurant, it s my favorite in Rimouski.
Clearly my favorite restaurant. The service and meals are just woww .
excellent service from Émy
Perfect Atmosphere, food, service, speed, bread bar Big wow The employees all look so happy!!! Beautiful to see
For the service and the latte a 5/5 the food remains ordinary 3/5
Brunch dinner with my children and grandchildren for Easter dinner... a beautiful room, great service... a smiling and cheerful waitress. Super delicious... really affordable... I recommend and will return without hesitation...
Excellent service from Vanessa Good meals delivered quickly A well-deserved five star! Dietary restrictions: Gluten free
Pleasant evening with friends, excellent meal with impeccable service...
Always courteous and warm service, succulent and delicious dishes, a wide choice of cocktails without forgetting the bread bar!! Definitely the best restaurant in town!!
Excellent food but service has improved. Wait an hour after your order and never see your waitress if you need something you will have to change!
Good service, friendly employees, but just one small downside...if you want to take the rest of the lunch, they bring you an empty box and its the customer who empties their plate into the box and not the employee ...personally, this is the first time Ive seen this...is this a new practice?
Food is ok.
Best service in town, go there in large numbers.
Youre hot can you have your snap xxx ;)
Honestly happy with the meal. Very good service. Simple but varied menu, for all tastes. Well-thought-out dinner formula. Good mini desserts, just enough to satisfy your taste buds without going overboard. Ill go back. Smiling and cheerful team. Well done!
Disappointing taste and overpriced
Beautiful place.... beautiful atmosphere... good service... only fun....
Emy is the best waitress
Great experience, as always! We were served by Emy, impeccable service. Our meals were delicious and we missed nothing. Thanks to the whole team, great experience. Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian options!
Pizzas, a delight!
Excellent service!!! Kid-friendliness: Bon menu Food : 5/5 |
Excellent and the waitress Emy 10/10 Food
Very nice evening and Emy is great!
Excellent food +++ What service from Emy and Marika! Wow! Rarely been served so well. A big thank you for dinner on Saturday July 10.
Very good service from Emy and Marika we were a group of 20 people very nice atmosphere thank you We were there on Saturday June 10, 2023
A good mimosa served with an excellent AllItalianna egg benedict. It was really tasty, an explosion of flavor in the mouth. My partner opted for coffee, red smoothie and 2 eggs benedict with goat cheese and pesto. The smoothie was a little lacking in sugar and had a lot of small clumps, but otherwise everything was very good. We were served by Anthony, who listened to us and was very kind. Good service! Thank you for this good time.
Forget the steak at $44, it was dry in the bar and not even sauce to accompany it, as well as the wine doesnt make you have the waitress offers you a bottle on special and when I ask her the price she doesnt even know , we ended up with a bill for a bottle at $70 while others were much cheaper, and lets also talk about the seafood languine which has almost nothing apart from pasta, $34+tx for a handful of mussels and two or three shrimp and the rest of the pasta wow no there you have just lost several customers I would never recommend your restaurant, and I also add the brightness no one has ever told you that it was dark in C.
WOW! I still cant believe it. Being a big food lover, I have visited several restaurants (including Pacini) from the south shore of Montreal to those in Centre-du-Quebec, via Mauricie and the National Capital, they are good but... the Pacini of Rimouski has just set the bar very high. I have never had such wonderful service as the one that Émy and Anthony (the latter was in training by the way) offered us! The food was good, the atmosphere was warm, festive and relaxing at the same time. Our children loved it and appreciated the energy of the employees. To return to the service, honestly if you have the chance to go there, you will fall out of your chairs. Émy and Anthony will serve you with joy (huge smiles), they are warm and welcoming and have customer satisfaction at heart. On many occasions, they came to check that everything was fine, they were very friendly and attentive to needs. Also, I would like to highlight their dedication; They wanted us to have a pleasant time and it was brilliantly achieved thanks to their great professionalism and their skills. My congratulations to Pacini Rimouski for its smiling, courteous and friendly employees (a big nod to Émy and Anthony who made this evening more than perfect). Thanks again, -Roxane Dea Kid-friendliness: Very suitable childrens menu and several choices, good portions too.
Impeccable service. Thank you to the people who contributed to this great experience, directly or indirectly. Specially to Caroline (co-owner and exceptional waitress ). 3 hours drive very well spent. To do again! P.s. seafood pasta, pizza and excellent cod!
We waited more than an hour for our meal even though we were with a 3 year old child... The food was passable but really too expensive for what it was. I strongly advise against it.
Nice setting. Ordinary Italian cuisine.
Frankly, this Pacini is the best visited and in 35 years, I have seen several! The service was beyond excellent and our waitress was extremely entertaining! The atmosphere was warm and family-friendly, the background music also encouraged conversation, meaning we could hear ourselves talking unlike others I have been to. The food was excellent, especially the mushroom arrancini and the little sauce with it. Even the unordered fried squid that we finally devoured! Thank you and continue your exceptional work! Great company, we will return on our annual visits!
Good to find somewhere pleasant in a town full of dives. Merci mes potes.
I received a dry mound of spaghetti with a little sauce. Much too expensive for spaghetti.
We were 5 adults and 2 children, our starters (soup) was lukewarm, we received our meals 1h30 later than the starter, the pasta was lukewarm, Caesar salad limp and the cold chicken very disappointed for my first and last time at this place we arrived at 6 p.m. it was not full at that time and sum distributed at 8:30 p.m. and this putting a little pressure. Maybe just a bad evening for the restaurant but very disappointed
Correct
Well, enough choice, but the prices are still high. Parking: Parking is monitored
good atmosphere and excellent food! however the service really leaves something to be desired! Sunday lunchtime restaurant almost empty 1 hour wait! Poor service, very hot plate, doesnt even bother to go around the table to serve directly! Instead, I was treated to a very contemptuous look and commented that its not hot because shes used to it. . accustomed to burns perhaps but too thick to take 2 more steps to serve properly yet she is the waitress, it is not the customer who has to take the plate but this stupid waitress who leaves it in front of the customers ! a woman of a certain age who should reconsider her career choice! I was a regular and loyal customer until today but this was my last visit! everything else was great but this lady should consider a career change! The rest of the staff are very cheerful, she should take an example from her colleagues!
I wanted to eat oatmeal but its no longer on the menu....
Amazing service! Best Italian restaurant in town. I go back every time Im in Rimouski, thank you Caro for your good service!
It must have been 20 years since I last ate at a Pacini. At the time, I found the portions ridiculous considering the price. I tried it this time at the restaurant in Rimouski. I had linguini Alfredo with 7 veal meatballs. I felt like we had dropped a tablespoon of sauce on the pasta; it looked like there wasnt one. The meatballs...at the price it would have been nice to have something fresh and not what looked like frozen meatballs bought at the M&M a few blocks away. The minestrone soup as a starter was at least very good and the apple crisp too. But once again and as at the time, the quality/price ratio is incredibly ridiculous. I dont even understand why this channel still exists. For $55, there are so many better options without even having to force yourself. No more Pacini.
5 stars everywhere. Thank you for the welcome and the service Cindelle.
Disappointment for my part, quantity wise what concerns your lasagna and what to say about these famous Carbonnara pasta which was so doughy, for the price, the ratio is not there at all. Too bad I love pasta, but unfortunately, not anymore for me.
Very good and quiet atmosphere
I dont recommend flat pizza (not cheese, but rocket...) alfredo pasta with as many flavors as a 7up which spent the afternoon at 30 degrees. The McDonalds was popular after the Pacini
Very good service. Nice welcome
Excellent service and good food.
good experience
Wow great service. Waiters, waitresses and courteous, professional and attentive staff. We had lunch and dinner as part of our stay at the Navigateur hotel and we will leave with very good memories of our stay.
You cant go wrong with Italian food
Every time we go there, the service is just wow! And the meal is always super good. I always come away very satisfied!
Pleasant atmosphere for brunch! On the other hand, the temperature of the dishes was uneven.
Very good atmosphere and service for brunch. The coffee on the other hand had a very dish water taste and even the latte ordered out of spite was very ordinary. The food took a long time to arrive and was just ok. Lots of cold items and in very small quantities.
Too expensive, for what was on the plates, the plates were half empty. (Brunch)
Thursday, April 1, 2022 around 1:10 p.m. during my visit. Very wonderful service and great meal.
We had excellent service. The dishes were very good. I opted for the Cod in Cost and I was not disappointed.
Food was ok but quite overpriced for midrange wannabe Italian restaurant
Delicious meal, impeccable and fast service
Top quality food and service. Thanks for a great time Amy and Jean!
Service was good and provided with a smile. However what we were given did not, by any stretch of the imagination, qualify as « food » except if it had been served by an overworked, ill and hungover parent trying to make sure their kid got at least a few calories at lunch. The garlic bread (which was clearly store bought villagio) was as cold as it gets and had clearly not been heated up (looked like it was directly taken out of the plastic bag). Each slice came with a tablespoon-wide stain of melted garlic butter/oil on it. The pizzas crust/dough were barely cooked, and the different types of « cheeses » could not be tasted at all, a slap of unsalted sour cream (bad unflavoured yogurt?) would have given the same result. For $21/pizza before taxes and tips the portions were ridiculous. Looked more like a starter, and tasted worse than a $5 frozen pizza. We went to this « restaurant » only because after a long day of driving, we did not feel like going out anywhere and we were staying at Le Navigateur. The person who welcomed us at the hotel told us that as the hotel was full we had to book a table if we wanted to have any chance at being able to eat there . However, the place was entirely empty. Not more than 4 person in the whole restaurant people seem to know despite the average google reviews. Indeed most if not all good reviews of the « restaurant » relate to breakfasts/brunches, maybe those are decent. None of us would ever dare to try.
Great great service and excellent meal THANKS!
Me and my partner hated the meals. Bland and tasteless. (the presentation was visually good) The service was good and courteous but the recipes . , in taste, comparable to hospital food. For those worried about COVID, stay away from the bread bar.
We were VERY WELL received and served. The food was very good... a special mention to Caroline who took care of us with extraordinary kindness. We highly recommend this restaurant.
Poor coordination of service and cuisine . Results .. lukewarm, if not cold, dishes after waiting a long time!
I really enjoyed this restaurant. Beautiful decor, good atmosphere and good service.
Shania was our waitress and she was amazing !! And the food was fantastic!! Merci Pacini
Good food, good service but a little expensive Parking: Problematic
Extremely slow service. It took more than 1 hour before we received our dish. Very expensive for the quality of the meal. Ok food, nothing more.
very long wait
It was very good. Bread bar. Good service
Spoon test failed miserably... Young child at the next table throws a spoon into the passage. All but all the servers pass each side. I even had to warn a waitress to be careful not to snag her feet. The serving pass even went around the spoon 3x while looking at it and went its way.... Also very expensive for 4 pasta dishes, without starter, without dessert and without alcohol. Always good taste, our service was perfect.
Good atmosphere, relaxed and rested, the food is good although expensive, I am satisfied with my visit
Very good customer service, nice staff, however the food was very very basic and expensive. Not even close to a real Italian restaurant. Very good customer service. On the other hand, the food is very basic and poor value for money. Nothing like a real Italian restaurant.
We would have liked to be able to have lunch there but they no longer do it.
Staff was super friendly, the service and food were great.
Excellent
They should be ashamed of their food Your duck risoto is a pile of cheese with the duck meat equivilent of a chicken wing And its got no butter no white wine and no flavor
We would like to thank Jérome Chénard for his excellent service last night around 5:30 p.m. I came to eat a delicious meal with my partner and my mother-in-law and everyone was delighted by his good humor and his presence. Many thanks. We will come back.
Correct
This is the most beautiful Pacini I have seen. Food, service A1
Always super good and fast service
Good hearty dish. Free access to bread bar. Fast and pleasant service (but there were very few customers in the room) The desserts are a little expensive for the size.
Excellent restaurant, very clean. A special thank you to Jérôme our server for the excellent service.
I ordered boiled and turned eggs and received turned eggs. I returned them. They gave the yolk a few stabs with a knife, put them back on the plate and returned them to me. When I expressed my disappointment to the manager as I was leaving, she told me that they were trying to waste as little food as possible. Never heard anything like this!
What a pleasure to eat at this restaurant, the service, the kindness, the parking, everything is perfect. We were six elderly people, our needs were not met. We think this is the best restaurant in Rimouski.
Very poor reception. No understanding. Impossible to change tables because we were two people. Come on, we must take a table with great clarity. The waitresses were preparing the tables for lunch at two oclock before closing.
Very good service thank you Jerome
Very good, but expensive for the quality of the meal
Excellent service, very good and hot food, our server Jérôme, great service and what about our dessert prepared by Emmy, I will go back without a doubt
I understand that they are understaffed, but then DONT ACCEPT SUCH A LARGE NUMBER OF CUSTOMERS IF YOU CANT SUPPLY THEM! QUICK SERVICE, lunch took 1 hour, then the waitress was UNABLE to go see if we were out of coffee, we were out of coffee first HORRIBLE SERVICE. Lunch cost $20 and the plate was EMPTY: 3 sausages, 1 bacon, 2 eggs and potatoes, disgusting and very expensive. LUNCH ----->GOURMANDO
Very expensive for little food and food not good, never able to get a restaurant
Service was slow and food was mediocre, quite disappointing
The service was an experience in itself....Caroline is dynamic, jovial and her wise advice gave us a culinary experience marked by her laughter and her rich advice. She colored this place with her radiance. Nicole, François, Cécile and Jean
Almost $140 for 2 people and didnt like any of the dishes! Started with cheese without taste, Penne dish with duck no seasoning practically nothing ate pasta with almost no toppings looking for the duck and vegetables very disappointing and bland dish. Apple crisp..ish.. Too expensive for the lack of quality. Never been able to... a big 0...I strongly advise against eating out..
Super friendly! Very well eaten! Very good natural wine! Thank you for being so smiling! Peace
Superb service! Super friendly and dynamic employees. Great offer of excellent organic wines and delicious meals with perfect portions.
Thank you for the good service, I really appreciate your smile .
It was delicious! The service is WoW! And the waitress was super nice and in a good mood! Yum, what a delight! THANKS
Correct
Honestly, this was the most disgusting food I ve ever eaten and we had brutally terrible service. I never give bad reviews because its generally not worth my time but if I can save one person the headache of going to this terrible establishment, it s worth it. Please, save your money, don t eat here.
Like all the restaurants in this chain, clean, efficient and smiling staff, decent cuisine.
Normal atmosphere and variable service depending on who serves you. The food is really too expensive for the quality of the ingredients (the too long menu may indicate that the products are not necessarily seasonal and/or not prepared from scratch). 2 dishes only (vegetarian), around $50 with taxes and tip. We will not make another visit to this chain but you can form your opinion.
Excellent meals, however, the coffee tasted like water...
Very kind staff, very long to receive the entry, then quick
Nous sommes arrivés 10 minutes avant notre réservation de 19h. Mais navons eu notre table quà 19h30. Des gens qui navaient pas de réservation ont été placés avant nous. Nous avons réussi à manger vers 20h15. Cétait bon, mais jétais trop fâchée pour apprécier. Je ny retournerai pas, mais comme je ne suis pas de la région, ça ne changera rien dans leur vie.
Very good service
Excellent!!! My partner and I really liked it. The food was excellent and most importantly, the staff was really nice. Our waitress was great and made us enjoy our dinner. Good suggestion for the wine, Thanks!
Professional, courteous and unparalleled food.
Friendly waitress, I like the bread bar, good food, nice plate!
Portions of gnomes for the price of a weekly grocery store for four people! Really disappointed!
