2955 Chem. d'Oka, Sainte-Marthe-sur-le-Lac, QC J0N 1P0, Canada
Unpretentious Italian eatery featuring pastas with a choice of sauce, veal options & a BYOB policy.
Nice little place even when very busy service is good.
Great restaurant! I go there with my family regularly! The staff is amazing and always give the best service!
Had the tortellini a la Gigi- was fantastic. My fiancé had pizza- I liked it, he wasn’t impressed. Calamari was good. Servers were kind. Would come again
Veal parm was excellent, ambience terrific. It's a BYOB, So everyone brought their own. Six people, six different entrées and from all accounts everyone enjoyed their meals. Very friendly and helpful waitress. Head chef came out and ensured we all enjoyed our meal and provided us with a free sample of his homemade mint/chocolate ice cream cake which was fabulous.
I wish I could give 3 and half stars. On the plus side pasta was very good, good sauces, and staff is friendly. On the negative, I found the full plate size to be small for the price, waited a while for bread although asked from the onset, while it was served to other tables all around us. Lastly, there are no English menus available.
The pasta dish i had was excellent. Husband ordered pizza and it wasnt great for a stone oven pizza. The calamari were very good, fried zucchini barely battered band not spiced they were just okay.
The owners are warm and friendly people (JF and Isabelle). The food is high quality and freshly made. Two great servers ( Kathy and Namoi) will take care of your needs. It is bring your own wine at reasonable prices. I think everyone will enjoy their experience.
Great pastas which are apparently home made. I only ever take pasta so I can only comment on that. They have a really nice variety where you have farci and normal pastas(then choose the type of pasta). I often go there and always had friendly staff. The fa t that it's bring your own wine already great too. They give good portions and you can get a half portion of you don't want to waste.
Great discovery not far from us, different!
Excellent dishes. Attentive and courteous service. Espresso which is not one (I would have given it a 4.7 for the kitchen). We go there for the food and service, not for the decor or atmosphere.
Beautiful atmosphere view of the tarmac staff at their business beautiful experience carrot cake caramel cheese great plates everything was delicious Thank you Mrs. Fortier
My partner and I went to eat at this restaurant for our wedding anniversary. It was the first time we went there. Way too expensive for what we ate. Good service. Atmosphere and decor outdated. Chairs dated and uncomfortable. My husbands food was lukewarm. Although we informed the waitress that it was our anniversary, we were not served a cupcake. Note that our bill was $135.00 without the wine because we had brought it. In short, we will not return there.
Very good service and good meal.
Always good...
Super delicious, owner very involved and friendly with customers, a first for me but not the last, if I may say so, the sauces are delicious but a little lacking!
Very good pasta and excellent service
I had a 50th birthday dinner with a group of 24 people, impeccable service and very good food. To do again as a group and with friends
Always a pleasure, good service and excellent dishes!
Very good restaurant. Fine cuisine, even for vegetarians. The chef is accessible and you can see him working. So open kitchen. Very good service by Catherine and Noémie. A little noisy. We think putting sound absorbers on the walls and/or ceiling would help. Vegetarian options: There are several options and different dishes Very good Parking: Lots of room Kid-friendliness: Children are welcome Wheelchair accessibility: Restaurant at the parking lot
The food was okay, but the menu wasnt worth the price. The atmosphere was ordinary, the service poor, and the chairs not comfortable. For this type of menu, 30% cheaper and it would better align with what you receive. Damage.
Excellent food!
First time for my girlfriend and me; just Wow, very good service, excellent meal and reasonable price.
Very good food and generous
I simply love your cuisine, it s delicious
Very good
I went to eat several times with my family at Finocchio, the food is super good and the waitresses are pleasant!
It was super good and very chic. 10/10 service and the staff are very pleasant and smiling with their customers. I recommend this restaurant and Finocchio deserves 5 stars.
The service was long and the welcome very ordinary. Some of our plates were lukewarm while others were very hot. Some components of the dishes seemed to reheat in the microwave. Portions are good. Attention lasagna lovers, it s a layer of pasta with barely any sauce between the layers. Dietary restrictions: Gluten-free pasta
An excellent meal and good service.
Very good meal! I asked for the table dhôte meal but unfortunately they charged me individually for the entire meal. As a result, my meal without tip cost me $58. I spoke to the waitress only to be told that its not a table dhôte.....I wont be returning!
Super good!!
Very good...nice environment
Its delicious and the employees are very nice. Perfect service!
As my first visit was not a success..normal dough..overcooked shrimp..we went there a second time..oven pizza super hard to cut, ordinary cheese, my boyfriends plate..overcooked shrimp again..but hot bread.we wont be going back there anytime soon. Dont forget to bring your wine..
Great experience and good food. Dining room and bathroom really very clean.
Trees good food
Very good restaurant, on the other hand very very very noisy, they do not separate the space on the group side and the 2,4, and 6 people side. Unfortunately we can no longer hear each other speak, once again very unpleasant. Ive been there a few times but yesterday was the last. They would do well to correct this noisy atmosphere.
As usual excellent service very good food Vegetarian options: Homemade salad vegetable dough
Excellent meal and service...I recommend
2nd time there and it was excellent, were going back for sure, soooo gooood. But no Swiss roll or Joe Louie for dessert, lol.
Very impressed with the food, it was excellent! A first and not the last!
The food is excellent, however, for your pizza...the only thing missing was the wood-fired oven!! Your sauce and other ingredients were excellent...think about it!!
Beautiful restaurant, nice atmosphere and good homemade pasta.
Me and my partner have frequented the restaurant a few times over the past 3 years. Nothing to say so far. Very long waiting time between services and to welcome us. When I dared to express my dissatisfaction to the waitress with respect and a smile, she was not very receptive and rather in a position of attack. The owner (I think) was equally nonchalant and in a fight back position with me. No excuses, no offers or accommodations to encourage us to return on either side. It s a shame since the food is excellent and some of the employees were perfect (welcoming, pleasant, easy to approach) Ill spare you the details, but I felt attacked and hyper vulnerable instead of feeling understood and welcomed in a restaurant where the customers should feel at least respected and important. Note that I never name my dissatisfaction having myself worked in a restaurant and being very understanding. Very disappointed. I will unfortunately never go back there again.
The service is very friendly, the portions are generous and the dishes are delicious. For lasagna, you have to like lots of layers of pasta and little sauce between the layers... The grilled chicken that accompanies certain dishes like the Caesar salad is really delicious! Vegetarian options: Lots of meat-free dishes: pasta, pizza, salads Dietary restrictions: Gluten-free pasta available
Stupid, cheeky waitresses who dont listen to their customers comments. We wont go back there, at the price we pay, we will spend our money elsewhere. Where restaurateurs and their employees have understood that if their business is still open, it is thanks to the satisfied customers who return.
Horrible service
Very good food, service still long
Good Italian dishes. Good portions and attractive plates. Fast and courteous service. The only downside is the noise in the dining room when the restaurant is full. Very good restaurant overall. The possibility of being able to bring your own wine is very advantageous. Ill go back if Im in the area again.
I went with family, the waitress was pleasant, and served quickly for a table of 8 people, the atmosphere is really pleasant and it is one of the best spaghetti I have tasted. All left with a full stomach and above all happy. I recommend you try it
A very good restaurant, everything was delicious and fresh. My family really enjoyed the restaurant, we will return!
Very good restaurant at a good price
Checking the QR code while sitting at our table after being comfortably seated did not inspire much confidence in me. We enjoyed good service. Parconte we did not like the meal for our part we will not return there
Enjoyable meal. Reasonable priced. Very friendly staff.
I particularly liked my evening at this restaurant. The service was lacking, the main meal was good but nothing more and the desert I didnt like and no one came to see me to ask me if it was to my taste. I will not return to this restaurant. Too bad, it looked good.
Alright
Very good food, beautiful presentation and very courteous personalized service.
Very good food, bring your own wine, I recommend it
Very disappointing for my 2nd visit. The service is extremely long, even though the restaurant was not full and it was only 6:30 p.m. on a Saturday. Caught todays special at $29.95; trio of large ravioli; one with crab, one with scallops and the other florentine which was more of a manicotti or cannelloni but not a ravioli. I was looking for crab, very few scallops and very small and tough. Only the cannelloni was good and had to taste. It took so long that we left without having had dessert and coffee/tea. It cost me almost $39.00 for this, for just this very ordinary dish. I wont go back there again.
Very disappointing, no service, too bad! Dont mind paying, but its really not worth the cost
Obviously summer 2022 is difficult for this restaurant. Difficulties having staff in the kitchen? Probably. The serving staff was very friendly and accommodating but that didnt make up for the excessively long waiting time for the food (nearly an hour for two soups and half an hour more for the pizza). Everything was too salty, the quality and freshness of the ingredients was questionable. The restaurant was almost empty when we arrived but gradually filled up... I pity the staff and customers for the rest of the evening!
The starter tasteless, the pasta good. EXECRABLE service. We were kicked out at 9:30 p.m. with the reason that the owner did not want to pay 8 employees if we no longer consumed. All the last customers were kicked out. First and last experience. We do not recommend it.
Very friendly staff, excellent meal
Each visit is a pleasure for the palate. Thank you so much.
Beautiful restaurant, super long service and very very expensive for the size of the plates
excellent pasta
Unfortunately.... we were hoping to enjoy a good Italian meal.... but the only dish that was... good... the spagetti bolognese... lets hope the owner improves the quality of the dishes for his survival... but after a few tries... we finally understood, we wont go back there again...
The staff is friendly but nothing more, 1 hour wait for the starter, snail with garlic....burnt and the waitress seemed surprised by our dissatisfaction. The pasta seems to be frozen, tasteless. We wont go back there again.
Not very good service. Its cold inside. We ask for ketchup and are told that we are not a pizzeria. You can find ketchup anywhere??????
Excellent veal plate, very good service
Screaming kids not appreciated.
First time, Average service, they only serve pasta, pizza and fries when I ask the waitress for ketchup she tells me that they dont serve any that their regular customer knows and brings their own???? It was the boss boy who brought us our bill, we were never asked if everything was correct.
The waitress made us feel like she couldnt wait to finish her number...she made us pay in advance without even having time to know if we wanted dessert...then we got kicked out to 8:30 a.m. under the pretext that we are the last customers when the restaurant is supposed to close at 9 p.m. and we didnt even have time to finish our wine. I wont go back there again...really very disappointed with the service...I dont recommend..
Very satisfied. Take out.
The service is far from pleasant. It s true that the pasta is good. On the other hand, when youre the only Italian restaurant that makes sense in the corners, at least try to be courteous! Have a good dinner everyone
Excellent restaurant in every way!! The food is tasty, the presentation of the dishes is really successful and the service...! Incomparable!! Catherine was unparalleled in her kindness. And the chef... He made us happy to come to our table. Truly a most recommendable restaurant where we will definitely return before long. We referred it to our friends and those who went there were also delighted. A little gem to discover.
Honestly, I dont consider myself a seafood fanatic. However, I must admit that the crab pasta dish that I just tasted was beyond my expectations. I highly recommend the place, with smiling and friendly waitresses, who work hard to provide quality service. P.S. To all the young men who will come to eat here, the young waitress who offered us water is cute.
Good meal choices, the menu is very varied and everything is excellent. The staff are friendly and attentive. The only negative point is that the place is quite echoey and it can quickly become noisy.
I went for the first time....delicious and the staff is great, I will definitely go back
Eat really well
Last minute booking, we were warned that they were short of staff and that we would have to be extra patient. Pleasantly surprised by the service in the end, fast and friendly. And the food, as always, was excellent!! I recommend!!
The service and attention received from the waitress was excellent. The place is rustic and the food is more than average. This will be our only visit. NO MASKS IN THE KITCHEN, EVEN UNDER THE NOSE OR CHIN.
The best pasta Ive ever eaten!
Excellent home made everything. Great service and staff. Bring your own wine
Fresh pasta so good its amazing, to eat on site or to take away, pleasant staff, the food deserves 5 stars, but they dont have an alcohol license, so if you dont know in advance, you eat without wine, and without being able to match your wine to your meal. Reasonable price too.
Very good service to recommend.
Very good restaurant, Catherine our host was very kind, smiling, very good service. She took part in our follies throughout dinner. Thank you to the employees it will be a pleasure to return
Food is very good. Friendly service. Bring your own wine.
Nice eggplant pizza! Ill go back.
Dont be fooled by the look or the decor! The best AUTHENTIC Italian cuisine in the region! Homemade pasta (for real!!!) The tomato sauce identical to the one we eat at nonnas! Everything looks delicious I will go back often!
The best restaurant Italian in our area
Food and service was excellent!!!
Impeccable service
Long wait between dishes
FANTASTIC! The mannacotti and garluc bread was delicious. I tasyed a friends ceasar salad and was very impressed. Alot of places use a bittle dressing and so I never order it. There, it was their own receipe which was delicious. Highly recommend this place to everyone.
The owner, to say the least...A crazy woman!!!
The meals are wonderful
Tasteless bruchettas... Too bad
Delicious!!
Excellent Italian cuisine. Good service.
Great find in Sainte Marthe. Kind staff and a big thank you to Catherine for her service

I loved my dinner, my veal was excellent and very good service
Very good cuisine. Service a bit slow.
What a good restaurant. Magnificent surprise. Everything is homemade with very good quality products from QUEBEC. We really liked Mne s welcome. Isabelle the owner and her services are excellent despite the lack of employees. It s bring your own wine and I was told that on Friday and Saturday it s by reservation. This is word of mouth advertising. You will love it
Excellent food and great service
Very expensive for the quality of the meal. Table d hôte for two $83. A small bowl of vegetable soup and a green salad. A real green without even a tomato or cucumber. Chicken drowned in pepper sauce with a few small steamed vegetables. 7 rolls for 8 people, coffee and a piece of Dunkins Hines style chocolate cake. And we take our wine. Very very expensive...
Excellent and the employees are superb
Super good, pleasant atmosphere.
This place rules! Staff is super nice. Kicked is clean and most importantly the food is killer! Also cant go wrong with bring your own wine
Very good food. Very good service and we bring our wine. What more could you ask for...
Homemade pasta very good condition good service
Great Italian food
Very good Italian cuisine
Excellent service, good choice of the day.
One of my best meals of the year. Service a bit slow. Worth knowing. Parking a little small.
Great service Italian family atmosphere. We liked it. We will definitely go back there.
After 3 visits 3 dinners Very disappointed if you order An extra like brucetta to take with your wine as a starter forget it you will have after the soup the bread will arrive after the soup As customers you have no right to decide Where do you start eating? The waitress that we were very stupid, very dry, she said that it was the same thing that worked, I couldnt return it. Please if you organize dinner with a group Go to places that people can choose something other than the group menu So that guests are satisfied with their outings We were 20 people
Always delicious, great meal at a reasonable price and you can always byo
Fairly good choice of dishes, generous portions with the possibility of bringing your own wine. The service was also pleasant with a dining room that was not too noisy despite a good number of customers. Now for the food, it was okay, nothing more...
Always excellent!
The food is decadent and the service is excellent, they are constantly checking to make sure everything is to our liking. The exterior appearance does not match the quality of the food or the service. The eggplant parmigiana is a must! Well come back!
Everything is perfect there. Both the food and the warm welcome. A safe bet where its good to eat.
Absolutely the most amazing restaurant we have been to in many years. All the pasta is made by the fabulous chef. Service was a 10 of of 10 and the 3 different pasta dishes were incredible. The dried Calamari as an entree melted in our mouths.....we would certainly drop by and drive 70 KMS out of our way to dine here again enroute from Toronto to Montreal...Les & Elizabeth..Toronto
Super good homemade food! The staff is very warm!!!
Excellent service food is exceptional
Plain and pricey
Its more than excellent its an oral orgasm
Super good food and excellent service
Delicious fresh pasta and excellent pizzas. Every visit I try a new dish and Im never disappointed. 4.5 out of 5
It was delicious
Very good restaurant, best fried squid Ive eaten in a long time
Excellent Italian food! A little noisy, though.
Top notch Italian food with totally home made Service excellent and friendly. How the cook managed to have 20 meals ready ypto serve at the same time was amazing.
A good neighborhood Italian restaurant. We celebrated a birthday there as a group of 30 people. A group menu with 6 or 7 choices was offered to us. The service is very good. Please note that meals are prepared to order. Very little pre-cooked. Also, you can observe the kitchens from the dining room and it is commendably clean. You can bring your own wine.
Excellent welcome, fast service. Correct food. Neither more nor less. A little expensive for what we had on our plate.
Excellent
The food is sublime!
What a nice restaurant. The food is always fresh and tasty. The prices are very good for the quality of what is served there. I dont give it five stars because of the somewhat sad atmosphere of the place and the lack of comfort in the furniture.
Good food decent price. Bring your own wine.
Best restaurant in the region.
Worst service ever given to a restaurant. The owners daughter and the owner gave me the most horrible service! In addition to the food not being very good! Farsa is worth a thousand times more
Excellent service. If you want to eat well for cheap, look no further
