Restaurant de cuisine italienne traditionnelle, depuis plus de 50 ans établis a St-Jérôme.
Ordered to take out the Veal Parmesan and Veal Piccata, all was absolutely delicious! I never write reviews but I was so happy with meals that I had to share! Was greeted warmly at the door as well, I know we’ll be going back!
Updated review: our first time there was delicious. The second time not so much. Still a great place to eat but next time I will get the plate of the day and not from the menu. The live music while having supper is a plus Thank you guys
One of the best restaurant experience we've had in a long time. Food was womderfull, the service was hors pair and the atmosphere is delightfull. We had the lamb and the veal for the main course. The cheese cake and tiramitsu for dessert. Everything was great ! Tres intime ! Must try.
Very nice style restaurant with live music on weekends. The food was very good and so was the wine.
We have been hoping to try this place for a very long time and seeing the raving reviews, we came in with pretty high expectations,. After a great start with the warm atmosphere of both the decor and staff, we thought we'd be in for a night to remember. Unfortunately, our initial impressions were quite changed when we saw, and tasted our main courses. My wife took the veal osso bucco, and I took the steak+shrimp plate. Both meals were quite underwhelming. The osso bucco wasn't particularly tender, and the sauce tasted of canned tomato paste. The filet mignon was cooked rare as requested, but felt a little hard to chew. The accompaniments were quite disappointing as well, some generic blanched veggies and chicken broth yellowed rice, which both looked and tasted like something you'd get at Vieux Duluth. Given the almost 300$ tab (we had 1 drink, 1 appetizer, 1 main course each), we were hoping for more.
Had a pre birthday dinner here. We had the baked oysters, then I had a house salad and the sweet bread ( Ris de veau) which was devine! It was in a calvados sauce with mushrooms.I also had a both of the veal Marsala and the pasta carbonara …all yummy… but my choice was scrumptious. The Napoleon dessert was delicious which was like a Mille feuille with real chocolate melted over it. My boyfriend had an Irish coffee prepared at the table which a tasty and pretty solid cocktail too.
Very good experience. Staff very nice and friendly. Would recommend !!
This place looks amazing on the outside, and the interior is very classy and elegant. Staff is super friendly and service is fast. Food was great, especially their onion soup! It’s probably the best I have ever had my whole life!! I also recommend their gnocchi, they were super fresh. I was expecting big shrimps on the Villa d’Este shrimp platter, but only got 1 big and the rest were baby shrimps. I would definitely go back :)
Its been around twenty years since Ive been there and its time to go back
Very attentive employees and owners, great variety on the menu and everything is of impeccable quality.
Which owner
The food was exceptional, nothing negative to say, I had the racks of lamb as a table dhote. The price for the quality and the portion size was perfect, I would definitely come back!
Honestly very disappointed, the food was terrible. We were 3 people, one of us ate land and sea with lobster tail. It wasnt a lobster tail but a scampi. A risotto, a real gibelotte, canoli bathed in oil. The snail starter with gorgonzola tasted not of gorgozonla but of cream. Horrible desserts. The only positive thing is the impeccable service and decor. For the price and the place it is extremely disappointing I do not recommend.
Very good food, generous portion, beautiful atmosphere, tables d hôtes highly recommended!
Vegetarian options: Rather limited, but they have the best rosée sauce and the pasta was top notch quality, as good as Italy. Food
What a wonderful birthday evening! Good tasty portions. A classic menu without the fla fla. Our host for the evening was excellent, a nice lady who never rushed us. We will return.
Excellent attention, very fine, category service. Exquisite food and warm atmosphere. It I recommend and rate it with the maximum number of stars.
Everything is perfect, impeccable service, delicious dishes and a romantic atmosphere, ideal for a meal between lovers. I recommend without hesitation.
Super nice discovery and we will return. Thanks to all the staff. Thank you Ciao
Good food, great service. Its a little dark inside in the evening but otherwise it was very good.
An amazing oasis in the desert!
Best restaurant in the Laurentians, and best meal Ive had in a long time. Real gastronomy. Lovely service. We feel somewhere else and at home at the same time. I will be going back to try every dish on the menu!
Just wow
I looooove it
Super nice welcome, excellent food, very affordable...thanks for the good service.
Relaxed chic atmosphere and original and very tasty cuisine. Everything is homemade. Small terrace overlooking the parking lot.
Thank you for this wonderful evening and the owner who makes our customer experience a success
This is definitely our favorite place to treat ourselves. The decor transports us to Europe, the service is impeccable and Alvaro the owner and his employees are really friendly. And the food, ...everything is excellent, with a beautiful presentation.
The service is impeccable and the food excellent! The restaurant is very beautiful inside, I love the look! There was a singer, which created a very nice atmosphere in the restaurant! I really recommend it! Dietary restrictions: I could validate the ingredients with them directly because I am pregnant
Perfect food and service!!
Impeccable in all areas excellent table service welcome atmosphere very good times.
Magical and welcoming place. Friendly menu and well presented dishes. Wine cellar and full bar. Im going back before the end of the year. Impeccable owner and his team too. MK
Refined Italian cuisine, the little details in the plates prove the chefs culinary genius...the impeccable personalized service, a warm welcome WOW...A restaurant to discover...the atmosphere and decor are worth the detour, a restaurant where the weather is good linger for a flambé dessert to extend the pleasure....far from the impersonal bistros of today...I recommend it without hesitation
When you enter, you step foot into another era. And the surprising decor is part of the gastronomic experience. This true Saint-Jérôme institution brings together two main ingredients: attention to detail and the generous flavors of Italy. The service is never intrusive, but friendly and competent.
Great service. Quality food and excellent taste. Beautiful presentation. Very affordable price. Musician on site which creates a beautiful atmosphere.
Went on a Saturday in April, for my father-in-laws birthday. As soon as we arrived we knew we would have a great evening. The teamwork of the servers, the explanations of the menu, the quality and quantity of our plates, it was perfect! The musician adds a pleasant ambiance. In addition, we found the price affordable for this type of restaurant. I look forward to our next visit. THANKS! Parking: Enough in our case!!
The lamb is so good!!!!
This restaurant is extraordinary. The decor is very warm. The service is personalized and the food is excellent. I highly recommend this restaurant.
Great experience, great service
Great service! Quality food and the owner is a sweetheart!
Its the first time but surely its not the last, however very subdued light .
Very good table d hôte! Great discovery for me! This restaurant has existed since 1971! Wow! All the dishes were exquisite! Salmon tartare! Wow! Snails with caries yum! Not to mention the tiramisu again! Its worth a stop!
It was our 50th wedding anniversary and we had a meal worthy of great chefs! Birthday lights! THANKS !!!
Warm welcome, delicious food and impeccable service. THANKS!
Always good!
Very good dishes. Impeccable service. Magnificent decor.
Excellent restaurant Good food and competitive cost and cheaper than other comparable large restaurants I highly recommend it
It was delicious! I loved the atmosphere of the restaurant, my dish was excellent and what can I say about the service WOW! I went there as a family, with my 3 year old son and the waiters (waitress) came to talk to him often, loved the experience
Very warm, intimate place. The food is also excellent. I loved the atmosphere and the employees are very dedicated.
Impeccable service and atmosphere
Delicious, delicious and more delicious. In a castle setting, 5-star service.
My girlfriend and I loved it! Super friendly employees and waiters and more than reasonable prices. We adopt!
WOW!
The food is truly delicious!
A quiet and warm atmosphere, perfect service that you dont see elsewhere, delicious cuisine
This is our first experience at Villa d Este and what a great discovery! Alvaro is so endearing, he took us on a journey to gourmet Italy with passion. He looks after his guests and the service was impeccable. We went all out to celebrate our sons 30th birthday... we had a great time and had the national drink (Spitz) to give a nod to Italy. The plate of octopus was stunning...the pieces melted in your mouth. The salmon tartare, succulent, the veal layered and so on, finesse. In terms of price quality, its honest and fair and theres something for all budgets, plus the choice of wine is accessible. On Friday and Saturday evenings we were treated to discreet but cheerful live music. Happiness filled the room and we stayed there for a good three hours...an unforgettable moment. We will definitely come back to bathe again in this beautiful country and taste the authenticity of other dishes on the menu. Well done and how lucky to have a restaurant of this caliber in Saint-Jérôme. Also, all our thanks to the musician. Louise, Aristotelis and Mathis
If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. Food, service, atmosphere everything was perfect
Amazing experience and what about the price. Wow not expensive for the quality. Fantastic. We will come back GUARANTEED. Thanks for the good service too.
Traditional crepes Suzette, served at the table! Excellent Italian cuisine. In short, a reference in the Montreal region and Quebec
Wow wow wow! First experience at this restaurant, which will not be the last! We were scared at first because we had a table for 2 directly in front of the musician/singer, but that was one of our best experiences! Music not too disturbing, which adds more to the experience! What can we say about the menu! Curried snails, a must if they are on the menu! The pasta is fresh, the sauces traditional with quality ingredients! Unlimited hot bread, great wine list and Italian beers (Moretti and Peronni), very good espresso, the tiramisu cake to die for! The decor is incredible. The staff is very kind and attentive. Very happy with our experience! Dont hesitate to try it, you wont be disappointed. Dietary restrictions: It is possible to have gluten-free pasta.
We were very disappointed with the food. An extra $7 for a pepper sauce and an extra $8.75 to have bolognese instead of tomato sauce to accompany the veal parmigianna. I wouldnt mind paying at all if it was very good......The veal was delicious but the bolognese sauce really disappointing.
Excellent service. Excellent food. We are always well served by the owner and his staff. Very good catch never disappointed with the quality of the food. On every occasion there are tables dhôte, several services, always excellent. This is our restaurant especially for crepes suzettes.
Gorgeous!!!
A completely unexpected discovery: we were looking for a pizzeria, and by chance we noticed the surprising facade of this establishment. What can we say about our impression when we entered! The decor is picturesque, the staff very efficient and friendly, the dishes are copious and tasty. We would also like to highlight the excellent acoustics of the room, which allows guests to chat without having to raise their voices.
If I could have given more than 5 stars I would have done so! Excellent service and food! Thank you for the wonderful evening! All 6 of my guests are extremely satisfied! Glad to see you soon!
I took my partner here to celebrate her birthday and we were delighted. We particularly appreciated the talents of the musician. The food was delicious and the service excellent.
Very nice place in a beautiful atmosphere. Very good food and reasonably priced. The impeccable service and welcome.
Italian atmosphere, very good service, reasonable prices! To do again soon
Each time you visit, the welcome is unparalleled, the food is excellent and the atmosphere is relaxing. I go there every week.
Dinner with siblings for our sisters retirement. We ate and drank very well there. The service was impeccable.
Best restaurant in the Laurentians! The food, service and ambiance are worthy of an excellent European restaurant. I recommend it to anyone!
The best!!!!!!!
Magnificent restaurant that we rediscovered, very nice atmosphere, very good service
Very good and very beautiful restaurant.
too noisy and dough leaves something to be desired
Thank you again for this beautiful evening of my birthday which my husband brought me to celebrate my birthday. I was charmed, everything was perfect. Quality meals, succulent, music, service, welcome. Price . It was memorable. I highly recommend this place for outstanding Italian cuisine. Incredible decoration, well done. Lots of success, continuity for you and all your team. Philippe and Louise thank you xx Parking: Lots of parking spaces. THANKS
Excellent welcome by the owner! Very nice atmosphere and our 2 table dhôte choices were excellent: goat cheese on hot beetroot and succulent green soup! Risotto and veal liver too! Excellent choice of wine but the beer is less varied. Famous tiramisu dessert wow! I cant wait to go back and thank the owner for his welcome! On the other hand, the scent leaves something to be desired, it smells a lot like candlelight and/or musty...
Excellent meal for my birthday. Everything was delicious and the staff were professional and friendly. Beautiful evening and good value for money... for a short trip to Italy.
I went there for my birthday I highly recommend it very good decoration really impressive well done to you all and thank you again signed yvon
Good. There there. One of the best restaurants ever. Extraordinary atmosphere and service. And what about the quality of the food. Everything is homemade. Everything tastes like heaven. This is our first visit... of a long series. Simply wonderful. Run to this restaurant!
Always a delight and fast and impeccable service, thank you to the whole team.
Excellent restaurant! My favorite in St-Jérôme but also in the top 3 of my best restaurants ever, the food is divine, the service is perfect and the atmosphere feels like somewhere other than Quebec, I really loved my experience and I I will go back with joy!
Delicious. Wines at affordable prices. Renovations would however be required.
Magnificent place, beautiful atmosphere, the owner served us, very versatile singer, nothing but happiness
first time and not the last really like all customers food service everything was perfect you deserve a 5 star yes
The best restaurant I have visited in a long time. The service was attentive, friendly while being respectful. The food was excellent from starter to dessert and I recommend the crepes suzettes flambéed at the table (almost no restaurants do flambé at the table anymore). The atmosphere is warm and conducive to tête-à-têtes, all in a castle setting. The owner is very friendly like all his staff. I highly recommend this restaurant, it was my first visit and rest assured it will not be my last. P.S: I would have given 6 stars ;)
Excellent, like a little castle
Excellent I love this restaurant
Everything was perfect excellent service
Excellent ! From start to finish
Good experience overall. Quality and know-how come at a price. You will not be disappointed.
Very good service!
Everything but absolutely everything is perfect THE restaurant par excellence north of Montreal
Wow, magnificent restaurant, courteous and professional staff, and the food is simply divine. A restaurant tried flawlessly.
Impeccable service and food A+ atmosphere Kind owner close to his customers My discovery and favorite restaurant in Saint-Jérôme
An Italian gastronomic odyssey on Jérôme soil. Fresh homemade pasta is delicious. The traditional Tiramisu will satisfy dessert fans. Excellent service and the owner is very friendly.
Definitely the best restaurant in all categories in Saint-Jerome!!
Nothing but great things to say! Excellent and friendly service, wine was delicious, steak was nicely cooked and the live music was perfect. Really appreciated the interior decor and overall vibe. Wonderful place to spend our anniversary and highly recommend!
Excellent food and courteous service!
Excellent, very good from start to finish. Very warm staff
By far the best restaurant in St Jérôme, everything is absolutely delicious. The owner is a loving listener and present throughout the service. The whole team is truly amazing and what can we say about the food Wow, big crush! Tip: the café flambée is to die for! An experience in itself.
A great discovery for us, wow! A warm atmosphere in an enveloping decor with a saxophone melody in the background, really great! The charm of the place adds a touch of magic and comfort to the meal which is just as excellent. Taste the carpaccio please!! He was sublime! Make sure the style of the place never changes, its so inviting and we will definitely go back!
Very good dish
Ah! Amazing food, nice wine list, pleasant staff. We love going there!
A great discovery for me and my partner this evening. Excellent welcome, a very warm and intimate atmosphere. The menu is still to be discovered because we will return there without a doubt. But my partners snails were delicious. I had the veal escalope with capers and it was divine! I highly recommend.
The service is impeccable, the atmosphere perfect and the food excellent. You find yourself in a setting that mixes the romance and luxury of a castle, while remaining intimate. In addition, a singer-musician adds to the atmosphere.
Excellent! Thank you so much!
Excellent food... Portion a little small, service excellent
For our 28th romantic wedding anniversary: Magnificent calvados sweetbreads Succulent ossobucos Impeccable service Thank you Alvaro and your wonderful team!

Super mega surprised to have discovered this little gem of an Italian restaurant in this region. Welcoming staff who know their job, perfect portion, mega atmosphere (a little more lighting please) Well done !!
My partner and I were at this restaurant for the first time and we loved everything. The starters, meals and dessert were simply delicious. Im Italian myself and the pasta was as good as my grandmothers. :) In addition, the service was impeccable and warm. We will return without hesitation. Thank you once again for this great experience and for your good work! Grazie mille! :)

Warm atmosphere, succulent food, very beautiful wine cellar.
Very good veal liver with raspberry
I have absolutely nothing negative to say. Any meal is excellent! More than magnificent atmosphere. Professional, courteous and very friendly staff. The prices are amply justified.
Very good food but a lot of waiting too long
During my 2 visits, we were charmed by the place for the service, the decor, the atmosphere and the quality of the meals. Our hosts are warm and you feel at home. A must for Italian cuisine! And dont forget to make yourself a real flambé coffee!
Everything is perfect... the ambiance, the service, and the food Wowwww its simply exquisite
Great hidden gem in St-Jérôme. Insanely good service. Nice attention to detail for the food, authentic. The decor is also very nice. Dont hesitate to try this place if you are in the vincinity.
Warm and impeccable service. Excellent food. Very good value for money. Appropriate wine list! In short, a great experience...
Everything was excellent! From the starter, to the wine selection to the main course. I highly recommend the land and sea plate! Delicious! In addition to the charming and intimate decor, it was the ultra personalized, efficient and friendly service from the team that was the icing on the sundae! Wow! I will return there shortly with great pleasure! Thanks to the whole team !
Super good
Ive been there 3 times and nothing to complain about. For me, it s my little treat when I pass through St-Jérôme. I highly recommend it. Perfect service, succulent food.
Quality service, excellent and fresh food. I recommend keeping your eyes closed.
Very good, we eat very well there
Good food with very good service
Excellent restaurant. Cozy atmosphere. Very good food and impeccable service.
Excellent food and service
Great service and ambience
Our warm hosts Alvaro and Marie Lou served us tailor-made delicacies, in a generous table dhôte setting. We will be happy to go back and taste all the other menus, all just as appetizing...
Me and my husband and a couple of friends loved it very very good and service too
Good from start to finish, thank you very much, it was very much appreciated.
Very good Italian Restaurant. Best seafood pasta we had in a long time and good service.
Not complicated everything is wonderful excellent service and delicious food thank you for this beautiful moment and see you next time Oh yes I forgot the restaurant is magnificent
What more can I say than WOW! We went for the 50th birthday of my partner and her twin sister... This restaurant also celebrates 50 years... Trying the Caesar salad prepared at the table is worth the joy!!! Friendly and warm service, everything is delicious in a great atmosphere! Hats off to the whole team!!!
The place is clean, quiet, good service
Great discovery in St-Jérôme! I love the decor and atmosphere and the service was excellent. Croutons and foie gras as well as some bruschettas are offered by the restaurant on arrival. A nice touch! Everything was delicious except for my pasta carbonara. A far cry from the usual rich and creamy dish. Did the leader just miss his shot? The duck risotto was exquisite, as was the goat cheese and beetroot starter. And what about cheesecake? It almost had a whipped cream texture! Ill go back, but Ill be wary of the pasta, I think.
Very good food, staff is ++, excellent service!
Excellent food and very attentive service by the waiters. I recommend this restaurant
Warm welcome, courteous service and good cuisine
I recommend it. Very good
First class impeccable service and excellent meals. 100%
Very good service and very good meal Thanks for everything
Never disappointed, staff so kind and helpful. Excellent food as always. Warm place without a doubt especially with the music
The Best Restaurant in all of Saint-Jérôme, Warm and welcoming and the food spectacular, well done for your super beautiful place Marie & Jean
Very good Italian dishes. Great Service! Would highly recommend it.
Thank you superb evening impeccable service excellent food I recommend it to all the atmosphere and the decoration will take you elsewhere not to forget especially asked for a Brazilian coffee once again wow
What a great quiet restaurant experience, soft music and delicious food and what can I say about the owner wowwww super nice It was worth the detour.
Pitiful service!! 30 min have menu 1 hour before having the aperitif and 1h30 later no soup. I ask the waitress if the soup is coming soon and she responds: I HOPE!!! All while continuing its activities without even coming back to see us to say that it wont be long or anything. we paid laughs and leaves lapperitt
Excellent very good and above all very good welcome
Very beautiful setting, gourmet cuisine and excellent service.
The people are great. The meals were delicious and above all we were given time to take our time. THANKS
The people are great. The meals were delicious and above all we were given time to take our time. Thanks
memorable experience
Very nice birthday party for our boy. We all loved our dishes and the service was impeccable. Staff very attentive to our needs and those of our children. THANKS
Very good restaurant in St Jérôme. Up to date!
We havent been to the Villa for at least 10 years. We were able to enjoy the four-course Valentines Day menu. The filet mignon was very good but lukewarm and the shrimp were overcooked (tough) but the rest (service, accompaniment and atmosphere) was excellent. The vegetables were tasty. Unfortunately, the singer who performs electric guitar solos has no place in a restaurant called fine Italian cuisine....Too bad! We will return there on....Sunday.
Very good I recommend!
Excellent meal and lovely atmosphere
Yesterday May 19th was my birthday, surprise a meal delivered to my door by my son and his partner came from Villa DEste. My favorite meal, succulent, pink and juicy rack of lamb exactly as it is served at this restaurant with starter of pâté de foi, snail bruchetta and vegetable soup, crème brûlée dessert and cheesecake and in addition Mr. Alvaro owner had the Kindness to send me a bouquet of balloons. Thank you Mr. Alvaro
Great restaurant with a magical atmosphere and the food is of exceptional quality.
For an authentic Italian restaurant, very high quality ingredients (even the desserts) as well as impeccable service... Plus its the most family-friendly chic restaurant Ive seen, my children loved their experiences ...I didnt find any faults!
Very disappointed with the owners response when sharing with him that two out of 5 dishes were really ordinary and his response was wordless, which in my opinion was very condescending and above his business. We will no longer go to this place and above all do not recommend it!! Given the current situation that restaurants are having difficulty, I find the owners reaction totally inadequate. We wish him good continuity!!!!
Still delicious and enjoyable
Following my comment, the owner told me that he would rather forget honestly, we mentioned a few times that we were not satisfied. Empty plates, certainly not mine. For the person who accompanied me, she was really hungry and for a steak @ $44, she didnt want to leave it on the plate, especially since there was no offer to exchange it. We WILL rather forget you.
Wow! 100% Beautiful welcome, beautiful atmosphere, beautiful decor, excellent service, exquisite food and ultra friendly owner! Well done and thank you!
Beautiful restaurant finely decorated in the Italian tradition. Excellent cuisine, warm welcome and impeccable service.
Professional and welcoming owner and staff. Excellent food to be repeated without fail. THANKS
Its overrated. The service is excellent but the dishes are stuck in the past. Its not worth the price.
Excellent food and friendly service with experienced people. To do again!
Very good restaurant and ambient music
Thank you for this good meal and super good service as usual, big love friend restaurateur
Authentic Italian restaurant, the decor brings us into the Italian world. The fine Italian cuisine with the warm advice of Owner Alvaro without forgetting his excellent choice of wines delighted us. The service is excellent, the meals either a la carte or in the table dhote menu have choices for all tastes.
We took two tables dhôte to take away and it was still hot. The lamb and filet mignon with mustard sauce are a real delight in the mouth...
