Pizza institution featuring a classic Italian menu & throwback decor to kitschy, old-world lodges.
I would like to share some feedback about our recent experience at Di Menna restaurant. The food was excellent and well-prepared, which we truly appreciated. However, the service was extremely slow. We waited 1 hour and 15 minutes to receive our main course, which I find unacceptable . I’m not sure what caused the delay, but it really affected our overall experience. Unfortunately, this was our first visit, and with such slow service, it might also be our last.
Enjoyed the dinner here very much.Started with Polpette as an entree which were very tasty, but a little soft. My the main course was Pollo Parmagiana which was really good. The pizza is amazing!
I went to Di Menna and thought the food was good. We tried pasta with marinara sauce and it was good and very all dente. We also had the salmon and veal marsala. The salmon was delicious and the veal was ok. The sides of vegetables and potatoes were really good. The service was excellent.
Expected better from a restaurant such as Di Menna. The pizza was too doughy and under cooked. The mussels weren't fresh but the sauce was good. We saved some of the bread to dip in the sauce. Calamari was tasteless. Lamb was just ok. The hostess was very friendly and helpful.
The appetizers were so excellent, we’re so stuff when it comes to the main courses! The staff is very nice and courteous. The restaurant is beautiful and spacious but people were a bit loud!
A legendary Italian joint. This is home-cooked goodness that feels like it’s been handed down through generations. Unapologetically old world Italian food. So fn good! Then new interior can come off as a little kitschy - especially the bar. But the black seats and table linens definitely warm things up and give the place a chic vibe. Yet at the same time you can feel totally comfortable dressed casual here. Ok so they don’t list everything on the menu. I’m not sure why, but it’s just that way. So be sure to ask about dishes and see what they’ve got for ya. Lasagna (not listed on menu) was beautiful. Veal meatballs were almost as good as my mom’s. Arancini balls were cooked so perfectly and ouie-gouie on the inside. Yum Oso bucco done right, served on a bed of risotto Tony and Deborah were awesome! Friendly and so professional. Deborah became my crush now - she’s too sweet!
To all the DiMenna crew that worked so hard on July 29th for my parents 50th anniversary party I want to say thank you for making things go smoothly. I know my party was a lot of moving around guests mingling with family they have not seen in ages in the private room but you did fantastic serving us in the jovial madness. Thank you for sorting out the 2 missing chairs for my extra guests and lighting up all the tea lights that were on the table ready for the guests arriving at 5pm while I was slightly late to arrive due to lovely South Shore/ Montreal construction traffic. You guys did marvelous! 🤩 This Vancouver family is very happy to have used you guys to get all the Montreal family together. Fam. H. Blok and Nonni Civitillo hope you all the best!
We found this restaurant by chance and my husband and I are absolutely so glad we did. Not only is the atmosphere beautiful and very romantic (as well as calming and relaxing) the food was perfectly cooked. My husband was tempted to order a second plate of his order of short ribs to go but we were in a hurry to make it to see the Cirque du Soleil. Our waitress was wonderful. We were visiting from the states and before we headed back we made sure to have dinner there again. We even had the same waitress which we were thrilled with. She remembered us and even asked how the show was. This was our favorite place to eat during our trip to Montreal. Definitely check it out.
A wonderful authentic italian restaurant !! The food is amazing and the staff is very friendly Highly recommended Food : 5/5
Reservation at 6:45 a.m. Left at 7:15 a.m. No one came to serve us, waiter walked past us without deigning to serve us. Very unfortunate.
I went to get a medium all dress, it was my first time and I was really quite surprised!! Very good pizza, delicious crust, fresh ingredients, a real taste of pizza as I like them. the pizza box was not just beautiful, a nicely browned pizza! Great job, it was a Saturday lunchtime!
Easy to make reservations. Private events room. Able to make options vegan friendly from the menu
Im never going back! Forgot the starters...we went there for the salmon with lemon sauce seen on the internet menu, I called and the receptionist told me we still have this salmon..ok once arrived the waiter said it was the old menu ! They got mixed up and forgot the coffee and dessert! Half an hour later it arrives and the waiter gives me a cold coffee saying can they give you another one it was forgotten on the counter! In short, no starters, no salmon...only mistakes! I will return to the Greek casa at least I know what to expect! Although very moody, the server was super nice!
Great food and great service!!!!
Italian food by name but not by preparation. Pizzas covered with cheese.
It used to be delicious, now its gone. They didnt even put bacon on our pizza and also they changed the kind of meat and sauce. Just a big NAH, too bad.
Excellent food and the service just wow
Pizza was ok gnocchi werent homemade at all .. Very expensive! But the service was good ! Food
Service, nothing to say, a waitress who listens and the meal is super good, I recommend it.
Very good service
A splendid wedding of 100 people! Delicious food and impeccable service as always!
Food are served quite long
Good
Good service, fast, the meal good and comforting.
Very good especially the squid!
Best Italian restaurant. Food is great and a great service.
The SPAGHETTI ALLA CARBONARA is magical
Best pizza in the east end
I recommend
A first visit for a small couple s dinner. The restaurant menu is not as varied as the delivery menu but there is something for everyone. The salmon was delicious and so was the pizza. Wine list with several bottles at affordable prices. We had good service and will return. This place is perfect for a couples dinner, family dinner, between friends or even for an event.
On your website you are open We are traveling as a family on a Tuesday, the restaurant is closed Please update the information on your site
Upscale restaurant Exceptional service Warm atmosphere A delight
We had a pizza delivered and it was EXCELLENT.
Very good food, cozy atmosphere, friendly service.
Very good...fast delivery
A half-baked experience with an extremely long waiting time and dishes that lack finesse and culinary work.
Good morning. I am almost a regular customer (delivery). The vegetarian pizza/pasta/everything is tasty. All. THANKS! Vegetarian options: Vegetarian pizza.
Too bad we were alone in the restaurant. Because the atmosphere. The service and the meal were perfect. As starter an arugula salad, followed by a Canadian pizza finished with a cheesecake. Just perfect.
Great atmosphere, amazing customer service, delicious food! Our Saint Valentines day dinner was a great experience at restaurant Di Menna. We enjoyed a glass of wine wile savoring their new dishes especially created for the St-Valentine. They also had live music. What can you ask for!? Vegetarian options: There are vegetarian and vegan options. Parking: Free parking both in front and at the back.
Ive ordered from this restaurant several times now, and its always excellent! The quality of the ingredients is top notch! This is real pizza. Well done to the whole team!
GARNISHED ITALIAN SAUSAGE LARGE $39.57
I ordered delivery and the plate was missing one of the main ingredients . I called the restaurant and the girl that answered said yes indeed they forgot to put it. We are sorry and will try to be better next time. I found her customer service underwhelming to say the least. I tried to call back and they aren t picking up the phone. That says a lot. I was just wondering what management thought, but I guess I got my answer.
One of the best well-dressed pizzas in town. Very generous and the dough is succulent.
Delicious food...loved it.
No one to serve...
Excellent family dinner, beautiful atmosphere
It says its open today I came from a little far away and I find that its closed
Relaxing ambiance, friendly staff and the food is amazing
Luckily the food was good! Reservation at 7:30 p.m. we left there at midnight! I had to ask for water twice! And I never received my second glass. The Asian waiter was very stupid and didnt know how to talk to customers! There was no beer available on a Saturday evening! 45 mins to finalize our invoices! An evening like that ruins the whole atmosphere. We had other things planned when we left the restaurant, unfortunately we had to cancel given the time! Dont be in a hurry if you have this server!
5 years ago i wrote this: Really nice ambience. Modern looking decor. Great food and service. Really awesome Italian live singer. Today: it hurts my heart that I have to change this review. The service is still great. The waitstaff is super friendly. That said...something is wrong with their cheese. I dont even think its a question of cooking skill because had it not been for this the pizza and pasta would have been good. That being said I cant let that slide as it has a disgusting aftertaste and ruins the meal. Its inexcusable for a restaurant like this to serve this quality. Please fix it.
The best pizza. Absolutely delicious.
Your delivery driver is a real danger on the road, dangerous driving, beyond all limits. If it hasnt already caused an accident, get ready because its coming. Totally ridiculous. Please take care of yourself.
Staff was awesome. Food has changed a little. Especially the menu. All in all was good and Id definitely return. Waitress was super friendly.
The food was great, good service and very friendly staff! We had a lovely evening!
Very pleasant atmosphere and excellent services
Went to Zibo and had no service so decided to change venue with my friend. Ended up at this gem. Great service, good cocktails then even had a lobster festival high end service and very affordable prices had a nice carpaccio di Manzo and seafood linguini. Wine list is very good and up to all budgets. Definitely in my book for another visit
Great food, amazing service but because there was a family party so the atmosphere was a bit too heavy
Excellent
We come Ristorante Di Mena at st Leonard at Sunday night . The food was very good and all the staff . I recommend the menu of lobster
Italian cuisine at its finest. Had the pizza and it was undeniably delicious. Friendly staff and impeccable service. Definitely coming back. Kid-friendliness: Very spacious.
We have always loved the food at Di Menna. Recently we hosted an event there and were so very impressed with how amazing the food and service was! Thank you for the great experience!
Excellent food, great service at a very reasonable price. Only problem is it can get very loud in there if theres some larger groups. One of our go-to restaurants.
Everything was perfect! Good portions and its really excellent
I came by one afternoon. The pizza ordered was good. We had time to chat without being rushed by the waiter.
Great fried calamari, great antipasti plater for groups, great osso bucco, loved the lemon scallop, however personally I don t recommend the vegetarian pizza, it s too much like an American pizza, did not taste like an Italian pizza and was a bit soggy, I don t think it s really their specialty. In general most of the food is great and I recommend sticking to their specialty.
Excellent pizza
Fresh simplicity Everything is excellent!
I order the pizza to pick up. I work at MTL in Laval-Ouest and it s not on my way. Its worth the trip and I asked for a few extras and no worries. It was an oral orgasm! THANK YOU for your fast service. Well done to the team!
Ordered a meat lasagna With no to little meat Will not be ordering this again. Food : 2/5
Delicious Italian food, attentive staff, great ambiance
I love this restaurant. And their freezers full of good things to take away
Not Italian. Its slop.
Loved succulent pizza
Enjoy the frozen pizzas however the prices are now through the roof.
Excellent pizza, Real Italian recipe
Excellent Italian restaurant.
An excellent restaurant which has been renewed without losing its quality We were customers of the old Di Menna and are now customers of the new Di Menna, still as satisfied by the quality and good taste of the food as by the kindness of the staff. When we go there, we feel like were having dinner with family, the service is so warm. They take great care and always ask if everything is to our liking. Their new menu lives up to our expectations and the dishes are well presented and super tasty. We will return there often! France and Roger
I had heard a lot of good comments from a colleague who used to live in Montreal, and I am really glad I was able to get food from this restaurant in my trip to Montreal a few weeks ago. I really enjoyed the food (got lasagna and pizza), and Bita went extra miles in offering excellent customer care. Once again, thank you Bita! BTW, the pizza boxes were really cute too!
Amazing home delivery food and quality
Very good restaurant, foos delicious, I had a Lambert Chops a la Griglia .
Fancy and classy place. There was even some live guitar performance. Italian atmosphere. Service was also amazing. The waiters were really kind. Vegetarian options: Theres a vegetarian pizza
Excellent restaurant, I had lambs chops delicious!
Went for my Birthday dinner. The food is amazing and the service is top notch.
Good pizza and dough
Unfortunately before the pandemic 5 stars and now only 2 stars!! Sorry but its nothing comparable to the Di Menna of the time...
Update November 2023, Guess what just received their take-out menu again, and it went up again by $1.00. Special No.1, (1 soda-pop, one fries, and a small pizza for $26.95 +tax. WOW!! Just got their take-out menu, Nov.2022. Their combo special NO.1,went up $1.00, again. Combo special #1: $25.95, 1soda pop tin, fries, and a small pizza, with only 4 ingredients. $25.95?????
Beautiful restaurant great service And the food beautiful and tasty ! Great experience !
Nice place, good service and good meal of chicken with cheese au gratin.
Loved it.
To do again!
Their food not bad good thank you
I have never ordered from this place. But I would like to try, the pizza must surely be good.
Everything was going well until one day they gave me the wrong pizza and made me move and not even a sorry for the mistake its the least of things normally especially in customer service and with a looking stupid on top of that
Always EXCELLENT pizza
Waited 1 hour and 30 minutes for a pizza delivery. I live 3 minutes away. I was told by the lady thats what it is , thanks bye. Well i used to order once a week but i guess i will go else where. Disappointed with service
It is fresh and I love that their sauce is not sour
The special Di Menna pizza is a real treat
Eat well
Closed Mondays
We ordered a family lasagna for Easter. It was very good and everyone enjoyed.
Hi, i know the food industry very well. Especialy the industrial one. I was expecting a good quality pizza because it was 34$ for a large. All the ingredients are the worst industrial ones u can get. Even the bacon has the slimest cut ever. Every single ingredients in that pizza is made to be profitable. Will never buy again
This pizza shows that its quality ingredients, authentic flavor and fantastic crust. Probably best take out in the city.
Really good
The pizza....uhhhh very delicious
Penne arabiata is amazing!! Highly recommend
Closed even though it says open..
We have been going there for years since the previous generation of owners and the pizza is still good. Fast service
It was good and with good service Thank you
excellent pizza, however my last experience was very disappointing. Waiting times of more than 1 hour 20 minutes, when I paid my $82 bill with a $100 bill, the delivery guy assumed that I was leaving him the $18 as a tip, I had to persist with him
Just got back from Italy and wanted to try local Italian. We order Gnocchi and Spaghetti a la Carbanara (received spaghetti Bolognese). Food was just mediocre if i compare to what we ate in Italy, and greatly overpriced...
Family get together
Best pizza in the area!!
We were a group of 35..! The food was excellent, so good!! The service impeccable ! Have a great meal with yours eyes closed!!
This used to be my go-to pizza place. We have been ordering here for 20+ years. The quality and quantity of toppings on the pizza have been on a steady decline the past few years. We usually order the dimenna special, the pizza used to have an abundance of toppings, several layers of pepperoni, ham, meat sauce, multiple cheeses and bacon. It was a struggle to eat 2 slices. Now, they have definitely cheaped out on the amount of toppings, pizza doesnt taste the way it used to. I cant recommend it as the best pizza place on the east end any longer
We held a Christmas party (22 persons overall). Service was great, staff was super friendly, efficient & always smiling. We had to delay the main course, a surprise visit from Santa Claus. They made fus about it... they went back to the kitchen and slow down the service. Food was perfect for a large group. Its not fine cuisine but it was good.
I have been ordering all dressed pizza from Di Menna for at least 30 years. I must say that there has been a decline in the quality and amount of toppings on the pizza. This time the pizza was not even warm. I ordered a medium on the side, but that one was hot. I am sure that they gave me a pizza that a previous customer did not go pick up. The cheese on the pizza was dry. This is my last order with this restaurant. Might as well order from 2 for 1 places at least I am not getting robbed $69.00 for a cold and dry xl and a medium. Pizza looked like the ones you buy by the slice.
I ordered an extra large and a medium all-dressed pizza this evening. Unfortunately, the pizzas were cold and they looked as if the $1,00 a slice variety we find at Guy-Concordia metro as well as on St-Laurent blvd, or one that a pervious client never picked up. Even after I heated the pies in my toaster oven for more than 10 minutes, the food was not able to hold the heat in. We called to complain and were offered complimentary replacements. They said you can pick them up. How can you ask someone to fetch food during the years worst snow storm? The management was defensive when I suggested our pizzas were discarded ones left on the oven from a previous order that was never picked up. Indeed, the quality has declined. The dough was thin, the mozzarella dry, and pepperoni greasy. As well, the medium was not cut correctly. The meal was not worth the $69,00 I paid. In sum, I am going to go elsewhere for my pizza from now on.
Top notch service, food and staff. The owner is a delight and always accommodating. Best pizza Ive ever had, all homemade!
I have a customer at DiMenna. Tonight, I am waiting 2HRS for a pizza I ordered. The lady at the counter, told me it was on its way!!..where is it? Folks, go pick it up. Because, this is horrible.
No respect for the customer. Order error and after 55 minutes of waiting at the counter I was given the pizza that had been lying on the counter with some semblance of modification. But whats more, they reheat the pizza in the oven so the pizza burns but they dont care at all. If Franco saw this he would be so proud of his restaurant he worked so hard. I have been a customer and my family too since 1973. Di Menna no longer exists for me too many times disappointed he does not deserve our loyalty. Look at what I was served.....Im postponing my opinion because of course they removed the photo of the pizza that I was served
Best pizza in st-leo!
Great food nice service
Delicious food, cozy atmosphere, great staff.
I cannot comment to the pizza, which has much better reviews. However re the lasagna and pasta dishes, arancini, chicken wings, and Insalata bocconcini. Not worth the hype. The food was bland... nothing special, and definitely not worth the cost of each dish. I was expecting some quality food, and it felt like I could have gotten the same food in a food court low end restaurant. So not bad food per se, but definitely not worth the money. The service however was fast, efficient and timely!
Great pizza!!!!
Everything is excellent! I love the take out frozen food counter.
Agree with one other writer. Maybe the pizzas are great. But I had the grilled salmon and I can say that I never thought a restaurant can miss the mark on cooking such a fish. Grill marks give off a smell which I suspect is from the grill not having been cleaned in a while. Disappointed to pay top dollar for such a dish. Didn t come garnished as advertised and sauce s top layer thickened into a slimy film.
We ordered pizza from this restaurant yesterday. We had it delivered. I must say I was very disappointed. It was soggy and greasy. The topping slipped right off! I don t know what happened. Usually pizza is very good. For a large pizza with tax and tip it cost almost 40 dollars! For that kind of money I expected a decent pizza!
I stay 20 minutes away and despite everything, this pizza is worth the detour. Just the right level of cheese, not too much which allows all the flavors to come out of the pizza. The crust too, probably the best Ive eaten. Not wet or overcooked. I took the opportunity to buy a frozen green lasagna. Delicious and an excellent weekday convenience store. Will I go back? absolutely !
ZERO STARS, A SHAME!!! WHAT A SENSE OF BUSINESS!!! They refuse to deliver to me because I am 17 minutes away and that exceeds their maximum of 15 minutes... While I have a friend who lives 5 minutes walk away who orders from them... LONG LIVE DOMINO S!!! ZERO STAR, TO SHAME!!! WHAT SENSE OF BUSINESS!!! They refuse to deliver me because I am at 17 min and it exceeds their maximum of 15 minutes ... While I have a friend who lives a 5-minute walk away who orders from them ... LIVE DOMINOS !!!
Twice I ordered a pizza that was overcooked
Super good Italian restaurant, the pizza and especially the bacon rosé pasta are mentally ill!!!
Great pizza great staff too
The best authentic pizza on the eastside of Montreal! Very classy restaurant and the food is amazing.One of my fav!!!
Still so delicious!
Good
The best pizza in Montreal.
I never miss the opportunity to order pizza from Di Menna. Been around since the 70s and theyve never let me down.
Great pizza! Generous toppings, quality ingredients, recommend a must try for pizza lovers
The pizza is excellent! The toppings are generous!
I love this restaurant my grandparents, my parents and I...all 3 generations will eat where we order for home. Always fresh and generous portions.
Great place for authentic Italian pizza
Ive been a loyal client at Di Menna since 1997 as food has ALWAYS been excellent. Either on the phone or dining in, Im always greeted with respect and a smile. Their delivery personnel are punctual, grateful and also very respectful. In my honest opinion, DiMenna has the best pizza in town.. bar none, as their dough is delicious and toppings are plentiful. Their gnocchi alla Catarina will have you hooked. Their veal is tender. Eggplant Parmigianna will have you wanting seconds. Whatever you choose from their menu, you will never lose out. Although their prices are a tad higher than most, quality comes at a price. Not many restaurants in St. Leonard which can hold a candle to Di Mennas authentic Italian meals. Attention to detail is what these people are all about. Obviously, I highly recommend this restaurant
