3131 Boulevard Cote Vertu Ouest, Saint-Laurent, Quebec H4R 1Y8, Canada
Trendy Italian pub serving international beers & Mediterranean food, plus a cocktail menu.
The restaurant has a nice appearance, but the experience was very disappointing. The customer service was extremely poor—staff were unresponsive and unhelpful. Ordered spinach dip(4/5) and magarita pizza (2/5). Food was ok. To make matters worse, the food took an unreasonably long time to arrive. Overall, a frustrating experience, and I won’t be returning.
Omg excellent!!!!! Was not expecting such good food but this place was marvellous! Their BLT has got to be the biggest and best I’ve ever had! Thick piece of juicy white meat in a delicious fresh bun. Fries are excellent. Pizza and salad was super tasty. Cider, Bloody Mary and were divine! Beer was great and the service was fast and very efficient. Waitresses are kind and friendly. Overall a heck of a great place!!!
Went for a Saturday early evening with a friend. Place was pretty empty so got seated fast and service was excellent. I got the impression would have been good service regardless but our server , Kam was very friendly, attentive and helpful as well. Didn't have especially high expectations but everything was pretty solid. We ordered a couple of cocktails, the Calamari D-something to share, I had the Sicilian burger ( a burger with pepperoni in it, so simple but just felt so right) and a poke bowl for my friend which was huge so they got to take it home. Burger itself wasn't the most flavorful but sauce and ketchup helped and the fries were really good. Calamari was the standout, comes out sizzling and despite being in oil it's not greasy at all and seasoned very well. Service 4.5 Atmosphère 4 Food 4 Overall 4
The restaurant specializes in pizza, sandwiches, burgers and pub foods. The fish n chip is great. Although the name suggested a connection with Italian food, it missed the mark in pasta dishes.
Wow!!! Excellent restaurant, super nice discovery in Ville Saint-Laurent. I took the Godzilla burger - the portion was huge as was the portion of fries. Other dishes were the salmon with roasted potatoes and veggies and a fish n chips, also huge portions. Beers were great. Excellent service, too. Washroom: soap dispenser dispenses for about 2-3 seconds, so if you place your hand under briefly and pull away, it drops on the ground. This unfortunately made the floor sooooo sticky. There was a group that was placed snack in the middle extending off a booth, so it was very loud, as they were right behind us (and we were meeting over lunch for an important convo. Otherwise, great resto. I'll be back 😊
Very nice experience, excellent pizza and impeccable service Peter-Joe the best ever!
Vegetarian / veg review: It was not on the menu but the chef made us vegetarian pizza and rose pasta, that was very kind of chef and staff. We loved the pizza, but pasta was not to our liking, they had green beans in pasta which tasted not good. Definitely recommend veg pizza, but not the pasta at all. It was expensive and didn’t find worth the price or hype.
We had a late Christmas supper tonight at this place, prior this, I've been here a few times . The greeting was good, we had a whole section reserved for us, the waitress made sure we had everything we needed . Now on the about the foods. The soup and the salads were ok, it lacked taste a bit. Our main meal was the Rib Steak. I ordered a medium one and received a well cooked , there was barely any taste to the meal that was deceiving .Unfortunately. Despite the good service , good drinks , I don't really recommand eating there. Nonetheless , we had a great night with the people there .
Excellent service from Paula, very pleasant, happy and attentive. Food was fresh and good. Calamari entree was a bit on the poor side in portion for the price charged. Pizza was very tasty with plenty of tomato sauce. Chicken Parm was huge. Vegetarian options: Offered options for pizza
Food excellent service, atmosphere a sober but perfect for chatting
Not happy.
Excellent food and service! Very enjoyable.
Good morning. Ive been going to Italico for a while and have always had a good time. Last night I dont know what happened but the waitress and the person who greeted us at the door had an attitude. At the end of the evening we asked to split the bill somehow. She said one way and we corrected her by telling her how we wanted the bill split, repeating ourselves several times. Well, guess what, she did it her way, like she didnt listen to us. Its unfortunate, but this will most likely be our last visit to Italico.
The food, beer and service was excellent.
The flank steak was very good and the pizza too. Good service
Great place for drinks and fin
The food was super delicious The server was friendly and wonderful Food
Birreria Italico is an awesome restaurant with fantastic service, great food, 48 imported beers on tap, tons of yummy cocktails, gorgeous relaxing rustic and modern decor, and a wood fired oven which is hard to find nowadays! I highly recommend this restaurant!!!
Foods not entirely the best. Along with poor service with the waitress.
Food is way too greasy. Not quite authentic Italian cuisine. The waitress did provide excellent services. Not recommended.
Warm, cozy atmosphere, food was to my taste. Place separated in two. For those who want to talk There is room and for those who want to be more intimate there is room too. Go find out for yourself!!
Alright
A nice surprise! The meal was excellent, succulent and very hot. Our server Kham was super friendly. I highly recommend!!
Great food, AMAZING customer service, and amazing drinks. Cocktails are big, beer comes in big glass you name it. This place is worth it. Prices are comparable and fair.
After a delightful day trip, we decided to stop for dinner, which unfortunately turned the day sour. Regrettably, my daughter and I received the Malibu burger, which was over-crisped to the point of being charred. My wifes fish and chips also fell short, with the fish being overcooked and excessively oily. Furthermore, my other daughters carnivore pizza and my sons cheese pizza were both burnt. The only palatable item was my other daughters chicken wings. I advise you to reconsider spending your hard-earned money at this establishment and instead seek out a restaurant with superior culinary offerings and a chef who demonstrates proficient culinary skills. Paying over $120.00 for such a disappointing fare is truly disheartening.
Very good, the diavolo squid is exquisite, the octopus is well prepared and the portion is generous
Good ambiance
I dont know this complete place I was once alone
Went there when I was in town for the night and it was amazing. The service was super friendly and quick, the music and ambiance was even better. Would recommend
The service and atmosphere are perfect, however we go to the restaurant mainly to taste food and discover new flavors, no quality in the food, hence only 1 star. The Salmon Poké that I ordered was really not good (not even the same ingredients as written on the menu).
Love the place! Great food, decent price, and great service :)
We had read a few reviews before visiting but our experience was very good. Ordered pizza and spicy calamari, and both dishes arrived quite quickly and were very good. The service was fast and courteous. We will go back.
Took the Med Burger based on some reviews I saw. It was indeed a good choice.
Delicious food!! And great waitress. But very loud (think jack Astors) and was quite long waiting for our food. Food
Lots of imported and local beers on tap. Wood fired pizza. Artisanal cuisine far from the formatted cuisine of the big chains. Parking: Shopping center parking Wheelchair accessibility: Ground floor
Great place to have a few beers after work
The venue offers a decent atmosphere for a casual 5 à 7, but diners should be cautious about the food. I found plastic in my pasta dish, which the staff attributed that each pasta dish is rationed and stored in plastic wrap. This resulted in my dish being cooked with plastic, which is unacceptable. When I requested a replacement, I was surprised later when I reviewed the bill for company expense that I was charged for both plates, despite not touching the first. Their cost-cutting practices and contamination issues have lost my business; I won t return for what should be freshly made Italian food.
Im hoping this review will be read by the owner. I was in this restaurant a lot of times and the food is very good. I love the calamari and the Godzilla burger, really really good. But tonight, I feel like I was harassed to leave a tip for a takeout order. I came in and ordered a Margherita pizza and I see the price about 18$ +taxes total 20.70$Cad. Word for word what happened: He, the server, gives me the bill, I give the guy 25$ and he asks me its ok like this? Im like what do you mean? He goes For tip? Youre not leaving me any tip? And I go Bro for what? For a takeout? No! (In my head I was, you got the nerve to impose me to leave a tip?? Of course I will not leave you a tip!) And he continues, you know, what you leave as tip is for me and I just let him know that he needs to give me my change. He came back with 4$, still 30 cents short but I was thirsty and went to wait at the bar whilst having a beer. Btw, the girls at the bar were cool and friendly. This bullshit needs to stop. I drove my car to come buy a pizza from and you bug me to leave you a tip?!? Are you for real?? Am I giving a tip when I go to Metro to buy bread?? I leave a tip for a takeout wheyi feel like it, not when Im imposed.
Great service. Amazing food. Good price and quantities Vegetarian options: Many delicious options Food : 5/5 |
Good food, fun and relaxed atmosphere
The food was really good but we waited a bit too much for our plates
One of the best pizza in town . Lots of beer selection.
I love this place, always a friendly greeting very good food, a great variety of different beers. everyone sho Parking: There is parking right there in the mall.
Excellent food! I will definitely go back.
Loved the charcoal oven pizza
Really good pizza!!! And what about the hamburgers!!!! I highly recommend!!
The food was tasty, and the portions were satisfactory.
Went to dinner. Fast and courteous service. Succulent margherita pizza.
Very nice for a fee beers and eats. 50 taps to choose from and the pizza was good!
Good food and good bar. Service was good as well. Only complaint i have is the area around is very dodgy and dangerous at night.
ate there three times i dnt recommend all what s on the menu. i recommend the burgers and the meatball pasta most.
another Dr legend recommendation great ambiance , fast service food sooooo delicious a must have experience DJ works Magic on Thursdays love it recommend it Dr legend approved location
Great and tasty pizzas! Good atmosphere with serving staff! Food
Vegetarian options: The vegetarian pizza was delicious! Food
Yurr
Great
Great experience every time I go, I go regularly and am always satisfied
Nice place to have Italian food. For me, it was a different experience as well since we were visiting the place with few or our work colleagues. Due to some some misunderstanding, I ordered something which I dont eat. So the service person was happy to exchange it with any added cost. That was really nice. Due to just this service, I am giving 5 starts. Food was okay and the atmosphere was decent for a pub kind of environment.
We went late (10 pm) on a Monday when most restaurants turned us away because we were a group of 8. Turns out it was good we got turned away because the food and service here was amazing (pasta, pizza, burger, steak sandwich), all 8 were extremely satisfied!
The food is really good and value for money is good too, setting is not bad and service is good, pizza and burger and calamari fritti were really good
Update as of junne 2024: Service was great. Food was good i ordered the grilled octopus ( great plate) and the burrita ( unfortunately not at room temperature..very cold) but overall happy. 2023 Terrible service. The lady came 3 times to ask me uf i was finished already. Calamari were great
I ordered their pizza and the only words I can describe it is WOW! Their pizza has so much flavor. Mine had no sauce on it just amazing tasting cheese topped with chicken and other ingredients. You must try their pizza.
Pretty good place and good food for the price. But I dont know if they change the chef, because last time the linguini seafood was not good as before. So sad!
Great atmosphere, food is amazing and the stuff are realy professional
Perfect taste, very fast service, excellent food. I highly recommend you
There were 15 of us in the VIP room. Kams service was perfect. We didnt lack anything. The meal was ready at the same time and everything was hot and very good. Well done!
From the authentic flavors of Italy to the cozy ambiance, Birreria ITALI.CO at Côte Vertu captivates with its culinary mastery and inviting atmosphere, making our every visit a delightful journey through Italian gastronomy.
I usually don t poorly review restaurants, however the food deserved an honest review. No flavor whatsoever in most of the dishes we ordered as a big group, with some exceptions. The one plate that was good was served in an immensely small portion. I tried to finish my plate as best as I could, but it was insufferable. I really wanted to like it, but I couldn t unfortunately. The atmosphere, the interior design and the service were nice though!
Kam gave us amazing service ... what a fine young man! Food is always fresh (especially stone oven baked pizza). Flights of beer yum! Great place to discover. I recommend updating the booths.
Lots of beer brands you wont find anywhere else, the food is great...and I was surprised to see a full crowd at the bar...my first time there so I have to go back to find out why...recomended!!
A fine place for a quick lunch.
Sumptuous!!!
Food was great. Even the instant mashed potatoes. Prices were reasonable and staff was amazing!
Their home amber beer is pretty solid Parking: Perfect for 5-7 Food : 4/5 |
The menu was very confusing but the general tao chicken was very good but the bbq pizza was overwhelmed by the BBQ sauce, the chicken was in pre-cut, very dry and frozen form and we asked for no peppers and sun-dried tomatoes but we ended up with bell peppers and banana s peppers, that we didn t ask for. The service seemed rushed even though the restaurant is half empty as they were pumping plates from the kitchen. All this and I haven t mentioned how disgusting the bathrooms and the tables are. The stalls were also falling of the walls , the toilets didn t flush, there was molded all over the sinks, the floor and the mirror, and the soap was very smelly and sticky as if it was just mold and water that was getting mixed with the smallest quantity of actual soap.
Could have been so much better if service had been more focused on customers than on enjoying themselves....
Good experience, we enjoyed the people who went there, good food, an explosion of flavors, a wide menu with several options at a very competitive price. The service of the guy who helped us was very good, always attentive to what which we told him in general, 100% recommended.
We usually order pizza and pasta from ItaliCo for lunch, both for us and for our clients. Theres always only positive feedback! They deliver on time, the food is always hot and delicious. If you decide to go in person for lunch, youll see there are a lot of people there, too. However, as for dinner time, especially at the weekend, the place is a bit too loud & crowded. Its better to have a reservation to make sure youll get a table. Overall, were satisfied with the service and definitely recommend the place
I ordered poulet general tao in Italian restaurant. Then i regret right after my order. But it was the best which I could think. The pizza was also good. The pasta from kid menu was bad. I will go again there for their General Tao again.
I celebrated my birthday in their VIP room a couple of weeks ago. I received exceptional service from Sharif who helped with planning the event, as well as our waiter Cam (I believe his name was) who took extra good care of us. Food and ambiance were on point! I highly recommend for your events.
Food
I ve been going there for years, mostly with work colleagues for lunches and dinners. There are not that many places around to eat, and this one has a tavern vibe, with a good selection of beers and a menu with something for everyone. I recommend it.
The atmosphere is pleasant created by the smell of the wood oven. The food is ok. The service is good and fast.
Nice place to have an Italian meal and a nice drink with a fair price and good quality
Starting with the very confusing menu, I decided to take the calamari as an entry and Linguine Tetrazini pasta as main dish. The calamari was a poor plate filled either 10-15 pieces barely heated and sad looking. The pasta sauce was very much watery and not your usual thic Alfredo white sauce. I had 6 defrosted chicken cubes, and thats pretty much it. There were few semi dry, semi fresh, small tomatoes, too acid for the pasta. My friend got told two of the main dishes were out of stock... on a Sunday evening at 6pm... yes it was the super bowl night BUT the place was half full and many waiters were on the floor looking at their phones. Moving on with the service, as a party of 7, we had to ask for water and menus ourselves, after waiting for a good 15 mins. Although the place looked nice and the ambiance was great for a Sunday evening, the prices absolutely DID NOT match the service nor the quality. Highly DO NOT suggest.
We went in a large group. The consensus was the same for everyone... atmosphere ok, service was poor and food... questionable. The chicken came from a bag of frozen cubed chicken, no seasoning and questionable texture. The pesto on one of the pizzas was very sour and bitter. The poorly cooked dough despite their pizza oven clearly visible in the dining room. White sauce, flavorless. There was no more soup of the day or fillet of fish even though it was only 6 p.m. on a Sunday. One of us had the rib steak. She asked for medium rare cooking, she received it rare or barely cooked. After asking to cook it more, she received the meat medium inside but some parts of the outside were still raw... A long explanation to say that they dont know how to cook a steak. As for the other dishes ordered, they all lacked seasonings and SALT. The best dish was the starter of fries. At least, upon telling the waiter what was wrong with the food, they gave us 3 brownies because it was a party for 3 of the friends in the group (our parties were the reason for this outing).
Great place. I went there with friends for a birthday dinner. It was delicious we shared a mixed Plat and had a couple of drinks. Prices are reasonable for the type of restaurant +/- 50$ each. Food hot tasty and plentiful. Food
Decent pasta and drink selection
Very nice evening
Excellent !
Jasmine and Kyle best waiter ever!!
Office Xmas dinner. Good food and service.
DIRTY!!! my friend and i went to eat there at around 10pm while there were no other costumers, i look at the floor and see a mouse running around and i completely panic. when we tell the waiter he says oh that s the first time i m hearing that but now when i m reading the reviews, many other people have seen it. he said he ll tell his boss but i m sure they all already know and aren t doing anything about it. that was absolutely disgusting and disturbing and we re for sure never going back. Also fyi the pizza wasn t the best and i got 10$ fries just because there were a couple of banana peppers on them. very bad!
Sitting at the bar, we can see a lot of flies flying around our glasses and barrels, not very inviting. Friendly waitress. Dumb manager and responds repeatedly in English when asked where to go out in French even though the main door was locked.
Been here many times for work lunches, honestly the food and everything about the place is casual, good, decent. Good pizza and I love the meatballs!
I stumbled upon a restaurant that serves laughter with a side of deliciousness! The food was so good; I almost forgot I was there for the jokes. Five stars for flavor and fun! Thank you Andréanne and all the staff!
Quiet place, good food, good customer service
Probably the best wood fired pizza ive ever had- its a pretty big portion for 20$(americano) could be shared but i ate the whole thing! The home fries are really crispy too. Finished off with a apple crumble and scoop if vanilla ice cream- Have been for buisness lunches a few times and its always been better than expected. Food
First time there for lunch I had the spaghetti and meatballs surprisingly the spaghetti was not soggy I thought it would be it was Al Dente and the meatballs are pretty good service was excellent very friendly staff if Im in the area Ill go back
Food is awesome and the service is super quick! I recommend the restaurant for every hockey games and if you have sharif or kalina to serve you you will have the best host ever! Parking: Lots of free spot
Amazing staff and food
The food is good there Very noisy space Pleasant service Parking: Mall
Good pizzas and salade choices but this place is now in a bad shape (chairs and tables are overused and not very clean). Time for renovation... Parking: Large parking space
Finally some really good wood-fired pizza! Try to have a real spicy oil please
Noise level too high for conversations.
Every time Im in that area for work, this is the first place i go to for a delightful dinner and good atmosphere. Staff is friendly and attentive. Highly recommend the peri peri chicken or the salmon. That said, any other item on the menu will be a great choice.
The pizza is excellent. For a 5 to 7 its perfect. Plus there is parking.
This place is more sports-bar related than restaurant. Lots of beer choices. Bar food choices-pizza, burgers, finger food. Overall, pizza was okay-to-good, not memorable or exceptional.
Good prices, good portion and great service Just full tables after 5pm Food
Cool for a beer. Be careful, the Guinness has as much foam as my bubble bath last night. Also poutine has as much salt as the Atlantic Ocean. Sincerely.
Mehhhh
Went for supper with our friends , good area with lots of parking and conveniently next to the cote vertu mall. Rustic vibe, nice atmosphere and well decorated. Leather seating definitely needs to be fixed cause it does make the place worn down. We were told they were revamping the menu so not everything was available. Sorry forgot to take pictures but we order a bbq pizza, meat balls, fish and chips, tony burger, mussels and fries with a Alfredo noodles for the kids. Drinks, we order sangria which had a bit to much ice and sweet but good, and Couple beers for the boys. Everything food wise tasted good, no complaints, except . Our kids noodles came extremely hot that you could see the steam coming from the plate. Now I am no Gordon Ramsey, but watching any cooking shows when plates arrive like that, food was cooked then reheated in a microwaved at high temperature. We had to ask for an extra plate so we could cool down the noodles. Adults were served first before my kids were. But the biggest complaint is the bathrooms! Now I won t go into details about what we seen in the bathrooms but they were both extremely disgusting, not just dirty but filthy! Definitely not cleaned for days. Now again watching any restaurant shows the bathroom reflects the kitchen so I m not sure about the food now and just praying we don t sick. Other than those complains everything s else was great, staff was friendly and attentive. We sat next to the guy making the pizzas, it was nice and open. If the pizza guy did tricks like throwing the dough up that would have been awesome especially for the kids to see too.
The best pizza in Montréal. I recommended trying Rustica pizza. Super yummy. The only negative point in this restaurant is that providing the bill takes time as much as making pizza ready to eat. I dont know why. Next time, we will ask for bill after ordering maybe it helps.
Very nice workers, food was great, love this place
Delicious food, very pleasant atmosphere and ambiance and excellent service!
Amazing experience? A+
The food was excellent, unfortunately the service was so bad I won t be coming back. Cut into the polpetta appetizer and the meatballs were hard and completely cold, waiter didn t come by to check on us until the main course was ready so the cold meatballs sat on the table for 20 mins. Tried to get the waiters attention but he was mostly standing by the kitchen on his phone, didn t even glance over once (mind you the restaurant was empty). Wanted to order a refill on our cocktails and again, the waiter was nowhere to be found. It s truly a shame because we loved the food and the prices were decent but the server ruined the experience, one of the worst I ve had.
I got a salmon poke bowl, and my friend got the bavette de boeuf. We tried 2 cocktails, dragonfruit mojito, and longstaff. The dragonfruit is sweet, and the longstaff was perfect for me. In the past, I have only ever had the calamari diavolo, which I like for its spiciness, but I wanted vegetables this time, so I tried something new. I dont mind this place, but this place is, unfortunately, borderline trashy. I dont say this with any bad intent. It would be nice if they made some changes with certain things. And their washrooms are disgusting. They really badly need to be updated.
An average place. Overpriced.
Super good restaurant! I often come here to eat the MedBurger with Halloumi cheese which is DISGUSTING! The fries too! All their pizzas are really excellent and I especially recommend the beer fish and chips discovered this evening! Plus: The portions are very generous!
I ordered the pulled pork poutine and it was very good. The squid starters and the others were super good too. I would go back anytime. Parking: Shopping center parking lot.
It tooks more than 10 mins to give me some napkins
Right after I finished my plate I saw a mouse in the dining room that was running back and forth. We told them about it and no action were taken, they answered « it happens, it s an old building ». I wouldn t even put a star if it were to be an option.
DO NOT COME HERE. There was a mouse in the dinning room. We reported this and they said it happens often. I don t understand how you can tell customers so casually that there is a rodent that could potentially be in the kitchen. I m absolutely disgusted. Stay far from this place.
Nice place, highly recommend
Great choices of beer, had the IPA Goose Island, great. Loved the linguini seafood, yummy
MICKEY MOUSE MICKEY MOUSE!!! While eating with my friends, an unexpected friend showed up. And guess what, it was a mouse. A mouse sprinting on the floor of the main dining room. We told the waitress and her reaction was oh sorry i will tell my boss . It literally seems like no actions were taken. As I went over the review page, I noticed that many reviews were reporting this issue.
