Graziella - Montreal, Quebec

Great Italian food with very friendly staff. Some of the best squid ink pasta and Ossobuco I've ever had. My young kids loved the 'marshmallow' like gnocchi (their words).

Salmon appetizer was well presented and flavourful. Duck main was pretty good, especially with the sauce. Basil cornetto was delicious, sweet and herbal, creamy and crunchy. Arianna cocktail was was well balanced. Polite, efficient service. Decor was a little simple for a high end restaurant. Uninspired music choice as well, basically waiting ... room music. Read more

We went for my boyfriend's birthday, and the ambience was quite romantic with its dimmed light and quiet atmosphere. The staff was friendly, and our waiter professionally funny. The food was good. I was a little surprised to be charged for the bread, but, as it was 4$, it wasn't ... too big of a deal for me. Read more

I don’t understand how this restaurant can be considered one of the best in Montréal. I ordered a $126 bottle of Cabernet, recommended by the waiter. It was mediocre at best. I had already returned a first recommendation so I let it go. For dinner, I ordered sweetbreads, which I ... usually love. They were thickly breaded, which made them dry with very little sauce which didn’t ameliorate the dish. My husband ordered the veal loin. It was adequately cooked but the accompanying sauce was boring to the point of being unpleasant. The restaurant is beautifully set and the service was good. I only wish the food would have been more than barely eatable. I will never return and I recommend that you stay away. Read more

Graziella was excellent. We loved the food there. You will be happy that you came. I got the gnocchi. It had a ton of flavor. They also get you bread with olive oil while you wait for your food. I ended the meal with a chocolate dessert. The wine ... was great too. The waiters got to us quickly. They were really friendly. I also loved the design of the building. It was a really classy place.
