Pizza Motta - Montreal, Quebec

I used to love coming to Motta and I haven’t been in 2-3 years - I decided to go for lunch one day impromptu and the service I received was SHOCKING. I waited 20 minutes to get served as the two women at the counter didn’t even acknowledge my presence ... and they kept serving people who had arrived after me. When they finally took my order it took 10 minutes for them to reheat my eggplant Parmesan in the microwave, and halfway through eating my lasagna I realized the middle of it was completely cold still. I went to the counter so they could reheat it and went back to my seat - after 6 minutes I still didn’t receive my food back so I went up to the counter and saw the dish just laying on the counter before the server noticed I was there and then quickly scrambled to bring the dish to my seat. Overall just a bad experience and Motta isn’t what it used to be, food isn’t nearly as good as it was and the people working there shouldn’t be in customer service . I’m usually a patient person but I was really tested today. Not coming back!! Read more

So we've been long time Motta customers for over 20 years and was are favorite Pizza in the City. Last night we ordered are usual pizza and it was absolutely the worst pizza I've ever had, nothing like it used to be. I had heard they changed ownership ... but we loved the pizza so we hoped that everything would be the same. The pizza was awful. The new owners obviously have cheaped out on the ingredients they use. We asked for extra sauce and there was no sauce and they put ham or sausage rinds that make the pizza taste like you chewing on plastic fibers. It was totally tasteless, low quality ingredients. Further more we called it in for pick up , arrived 30 minutes later and it took them another 30 minutes to cook it because they hadn't started it. SO DISAPPOINTED. Read more

Superb hot meals, pasta, pizza, and salads, all with super friendly service. Love their meatballs, as well as their 3-salad special, which has hot & cold items. Nice dining area and huge selection of desserts. Located across from the Jean Talon market, it's the perfect stopover ... while shopping in the neighborhood. Read more

I always go there for their salad combo, they have different kind of salad to choose from. Also a good amount of pasta dishes made fresh daily and all kind of pizza slices. Decent pastries for the price. The service could've been better, there's not enough staff for the amount ... of customers. Read more

Beautiful pizzas and I especially recommend salads. Three choices of salad is only $12.99 (small size option is enough for a person’s lunch) and they tested great! I visited here twice during my short stay in Montreal.
