    the outside of a restaurant
    Michael K.

    Decided to come back and try this place again. Tons of free parking and public transportation. Reservations are required and recommended. We were brave and decided to try the chef board. Which consist of a ribeye steak, lamb chops, giant shrimp, fries, mushrooms and broccolini. We also added a side of roasted cauliflower. Let's begin The roasted cauliflower is a staple at this place. Seasoned well and roasted until golden brown. Comes with a cauchupepe sauce. This is a favorite of mine and will order it again. Next up the main star of the evening. The lamb chops were cooked well but they rested to long and were cold. Seasoned well and cooked right. If they were warm they would be a star if the plate. Since it rested to long for the steak to be cooked it was a bummer. The giant tiger shrimps were overcooked and stone cold. Same issue with the lamb with resting to long The fries are fries no need to say much more . Cooked golden brown and were served warm. The mushrooms and Brocollini were seasoned well and cooked perfectly and we're served warm. Stand alone item for next time. The ribeye which was to be the highlight was not cooked evenly and some parts were over cooked and some was raw. The steak itself was seasoned well but there was a huge vain that ran in the steak making it chewy and hard to cut. Was not impressed for the steak . Will i go back yes but will stick to there staple dishes. Enjoy

    Wow this place was awesome ! Love how laval is doing their own thing and getting way more fabulous as time goes by.. you don't even need mtl anymore lol It was Super EASY to get a reservation on OpenTable ! The resto even called to confirm our presence twice pretty sweet! We came here for a dinner date and it's seriously a nice intimate place for it. This place is bomb!! They're in the food space of the place Bell in laval! It is super beautiful decor as you walk in Parking is free underground if you eat here ! dope! Our waiter was super nice and friendly he gave us good recommendations and made sure to cater to all our needs very efficiently ! Food: 5++++ everything was freshly prepared and cooked perfectly ! We had a bunch of Appetizers we shared they brought us extra plates so we can grab stuff on our plate more easily loved it! My faveeeeee the Charred Cauli caccio i pepe wow the sauce was super flavourful and the cauliflower was cooked so delicious ! Super crispy and well seasoned I really enjoyed it The olives were served warm that's super rare and I loved it ! Its so different from just regular olives .. they were delicious ! 5/5 The sautéed mushrooms 5/5 Chicken dish 5/5 .. it was a chicken breast and I was amazed by how much juices were actually flowing out the breast it was extremely tender and nicely seasoned 5/5!!!!!! It's so hard to get chicken breast cooked right and that juicy kudos!! Drinksss kept pouring !!! I enjoyed the rome sour and vodka/redbull really enjoyed how fast they got to the table! Overall, we had an amazing time a great first impression and we will obviously be back here again for part 2 our new favourite spot !! Super happy we found this place by fluke !! Can't wait to try their other dishes next time! Totally recommend !! Cheers

    Came here for a friends birthday on a saturday night and it went really well! we got 3 pizzas to share and I got the salmon tartare as an entree. I loved the tartare, one of the best I've had in a while. The pizzas were good but the toppings and the cheese kept sliding off. The waiters were all very nice and attentive, a bit slow at time but it was really busy. We had brought our own cake and they were nice enough to bring it out for us but they brought it out while one of our friends was in the bathroom! That could've been executed better. The restaurant is really well decorated and chic. We were at a booth and all six of us were comfortable. The bathrooms are so cute and instagrammable (It's like they knew girls take selfies in bathroom mirrors or something) There was one mishap when the fire alarm rang and we weren't sure if we had to evacuate or not, makes for a great story! It's also very well located, right next to the metro!

    I give a 4 star because the food here is amazing, the food has been always good when I've been here. They have a cute flowery decor all over the restaurant. They also have a very pretty big bar. This place is located in the same building as the Place Bell On the weekend they have a DJ that plays. This place is always full and very very loud, with the music and everyone talking it's very hard to hear the other person in front of you This is modern Italian restaurant, so if you go don't except for it to be authentic. If you go I recommend getting the calamari, the burrata, the filet mignon, the salmon tartare and the pastas. This place have underground parking, you just have to give them the ticket before leaving and they will exchange it with alot ticket which makes your parking free. During the summer they have a very big patio outside. If you go here you the need order the "suivez la Rose" sangria pitcher is taste like the watermelon Jolly rancher. So good to drink but also dangerous haha. Nothing negative to say about the staff I suggest this place for 2+ group of ppl $$$+

    Calamar was good, sauce i really liked different

    We enjoyed it, food was good had the cauliflower entree was really good, my boyfriend had the calamar was good but small portion. Then we had steak very good and pizza. Pizza was ok had the burrata one. Was just soo thin that went through and with burrata felt wet a little. But crust was good. I would maybe try another one next time or something else. Ambiance was nice went on a thursday night not too loud. Was able to talk.

    Got multiple courses with desert and champagne, nice atmosphere. Was for a friend's birthday and I can't speak on the price; but my experience here was good! Nice dishware as well; something I take notice of.

    Beautiful resto! Very modern. Solid place to have a bite or a drink before or after you attend a show/game at Place Bell. Parking is available indoors. Entrance is on the south side of the building. Please make sure to ask the hostess to validate your parking before you leave. Kid friendly. Service during my dinner was top notch and friendly. We were a group of 4 and tried a bunch of plates/appetizers and wanted to get our DRINK ON the celebrate an occasion!!! This place is great if you go out with friends and to celebrate an occasion. We started the evening off with a pitcher of red Sangria and it was decent. It did feel a little watered down and had excessive ice. The pitcher was evenly split into 4 and that ended up about 2/3 of a glass (they're pretty big). More than a quarter of the pitcher was ice. This kind-of left us wanting given the price-tag so we decided to go for individual drinks instead. I had a bloody Caesar and it was good. As far as the plates go, for me it was kind-of a mixed bag. It was my first visit but everyone else in my group has been here 2-3 times before me. Apparently, the menu changed? The pizzas looked different? Can't say firsthand but this stuff does tend to happen with new restos. Here is the plate breakdown: Calamari (3 stars) - The calamari were good but for $15 the plate was a bit too gastronomic. Basil aioli sauce was fab. If this plate was more filled out it would have been great. More sauce too! Burrata (2 stars) - $22 is a stiff price given this plate's small size. Decent. Wouldn't have it again. Veal Meatballs (3 stars) - 3 meatballs for $14. Taste was decent. Had better though. Neeeeext! Charred Cauliflower (5 stars) - This plate blew everything else I tried off the table. Loved it! That cacio e pepe cause tho... OMG! Porchetta Pizza (2 stars) - The pizza was cold and somewhat runny on the inside. Distribution of the pizza was amateurish. This pizza was $23? Thank you, next. Gnocchi Pasta (2 stars) - The gnocchi were decent, but the sauce was off? I wasn't the only one who felt this. In fact, everyone at the table who tried this dish in the past felt it was "different". Overall, nice place to have drinks and share a few bites. Food was weakest point. Maybe it was an off-night? Somewhat pricey. I would be back, but I'd like to try the other restos in Place Bell first.

    Loud, this place is insanely loud so do not expect to come here for a quiet chit-chat or a relaxed ambiance. We were about 25 for a late night Christmas Party and we had an isolated corner spot which was nice. The set menu was $65 for an appetizer, primi piatti and main course. I chose the Beef Tartare which was ok, i should have gone for the prosciutto which was heavenly. It's drizzled with a Giardiniera oil and whipped ricotta. This was followed by gnocchi which were good but only had one piece of sausage in a white cream sauce The final course I chose was a 7oz Filet Mignon. While it was good it lacked the taste from a steakhouse. The sides were mashed potatoes and simple broccoli, which was not very original. The other choices were shrimp or a vegetarian pizza and almost no-one selected that. The parking in this area is worse than downtown Montreal as it's close to Bell Place and a Metro Station, there was a hockey game so the parking at the Bell Place was full so take this into consideration. The service was very attentive (Kristina rocked) and the decor is very nice and modern. The clientele is very young and branché for Laval. It comes down to the noise level for me, by 11pm the place was empty yet the DJ still kept blasting away a mix of 70s to 90s hits.

    i am not one to leave negative reviews but i was thoroughly unimpressed with this place. the waitress for whatever reason was extremely rude and interrupted me multiple times while ordering and even gave us a dirty look or two for no apparent reason. it is overpriced for what it is - near 30$ for a tiny plate of pasta with mediocre sauce. handmade pasta is great and all, but many other places make it for much less and better service. will not be returning.

    We really wanted to like this place. The decor, music and overall vibe was immediately impressive. However, our eagerness quickly turned into frustration when we were forced to wait almost an hour for a two person table that we reserved days in advance. Within that 50 minute period, we watched countless other tables walk in and be seated before us, and the only attention we received from any staff members were a couple of uncertain "it won't be long"s from the hostess. We finally got seated at the smallest, most mediocre table in what would've been an uncomfortably crowded area had the tables around us been full. But much to our surprise, they were vacant and stayed that way for the remainder of our meal which led us to question whether our prolonged wait time was at all necessary. Shortly after being seated, our smiley and polite waiter (who ended up being the best part of our experience) took our order and things began to look up. However, our disappointment quickly re-emerged when we noticed that the couple who was seated after us received their main courses before we even got our cocktails. We ended up waiting a total of 40 minutes for our meals. The food was good but definitely not good enough to make up for the rest of the evening. Our experience goes to show that no matter how trendy a restaurant appears to be or how picture-perfect their wallpaper and food is, nothing can compensate for poor service. Will not be returning.

    This place was really hyped up, so before going I had high expectations but to be honest it was pretty mediocre,there are a few high points thought, beautiful ambiance and a great decor for a nice big space,very trendy also the music was great and the staff was very friendly. We started off with a few appetizers, whipped ricotta and some focaccia, I found it delicious I just wish it came with more focaccia, we also took the salmon tartar.... the colour looked off, not your usual pink but more of a dull colour... tasted alright but it needed some salt. Then we took the pesto pasta with burrata, the pesto tasted very vibrant but it lacked salt, and we also took a Calabrese pizza, which we found to be a little salty but the crust was nice and crispy with a little chew the way I love it! All in all I'm glad I finally tried this place it was just a little underwhelming.

    Slow service in the beginning then improved. Burrata was memorable, ambiance above average. Service needs to be a team effort.

We went in a group of 9 people with reservation. Free parking and it was completely packed. Certainly a good sign of a nice restaurant. We arrived 10 min early but the table was delayed by the last round of patrons. The waitress was so smart to offer each of us complimentary champagne because of this. Pretty darn nice. We ordered pizzas, Panozzo (big size pizza pocket stuffed with ham, eggplants, and mozzarella), calamari, cheese, a few fettuccine, and a couple of Martini. Among those items, pizzas stood out pretty well. Not only the taste and size but also the toppings as well as the firewood aroma. Beautifully done. Highly recommended. Cool ambiance for dining with great music. Great vibe. The servers were nice and friendly. On top of typical Montreal-style small restaurant tables, this place also offers long tables to accommodate bigger groups. It certainly brings you a very enjoyable dining experience with your buddies for sure. It's such a good dining place. We had a wonderful time catch-up with friends in Laval. No wonder the parking lot was jam-packed! Haha.

The staff were rushing around trying to get people to pay and clear tables quickly, and we weren't the only ones waiting. Others seemed a bit upset too. The entrance area is very small and also right next to where the kitchen is and staff comes out with the dishes, so it felt a bit chaotic and cramped while waiting. Despite that, once seated, the food and service made up for it. Everything was tasty and well-prepared. I really hope they improve the flow and spacing of reservations, because the staff definitely deserve better support!.

This place seemed to be more of a place for groups, they had private rooms. If you are celebrating a birthday party or a big get together in Laval with Italian type of food, I think it's a good choice.
