What a wonderful Italian restaurant, right on Greene Ave. in the heart of Westmount!…read more My folks dine here occasionally as they live nearby, but I've never been - until a few nights ago. Had a 6pm reservation and we were first there, but within 15-20 minutes, the restaurant was filling up fast. I recommend reservations here to ensure a seat. It clearly is a popular spot. The interior is lovely, with well spaced tables, and due to its location on the second floor of the building, it's great sitting by the front window walls to look out onto the avenue and people watch. I loved the white linens and the clean black and white aesthetic, combined with the window wall and areas of exposed bricks and tall glass-enclosed wine racks. Our server was Francesco and he was absolutely amazing. Onto the food.... wow, it was good. My dad had his regular Caesar salad and after I tried a bit of it, I could see why he's such a fan. The intact romaine leaves were so perfectly crisp and perfect, I don't think I've ever had a salad where the lettuce was so perfect. The dressing and parmesan on said salad was also perfect. Honestly, I think it was the best Caesar salad I've ever tasted. Next time, I'm ordering one, for sure. My mom and I shared the eggplant parmesan and it was delicious and not heavy or overwhelming as most eggplant parmesan dishes are. We also shared their version of Caprese salad, with buffalo mozzarella and tomatoes. This was, for me, the only miss of the night. The cheese and tomatoes were delicious, but they only used olive oil on the salad, and it really called for some good balsamic vinegar as well. (Note to self: next time ask for some balsamic on the side. The dish really called for it). My folks also shared some ice cream for dessert and they said it was super good, they could tell the quality was super high. We all had drinks (even my dad, who NEVER drinks). Dad's red wine was, he said, perfect, and my mom loved her gin martini (which she noted was the biggest martini she ever had. They sure don't scrimp on drink sizes here!). As for me, I asked Francesco for a sangria on the sweet side, and he returned with the best sangria I ever had, hands down. I am not exaggerating, it was beyond delicious. We had a wonderful dinner here. I should note, at the end of our meal, my mom had a bad reaction from her meds and her drink and it got a little concerning there for a few minutes. Francesco was really helpful to us, as I had to help my mom out. (My apologies to the restaurant and nearby diners. I know it must have been disturbing for them. Mom was fine soon after and has since had some med dosages tweaked by her doctor). I should also add that parking here is a breeze. There is a large parking lot a few yards away on Greene and parking is free after 6pm, and I think street parking is free after 6 or 9pm, too, and free all day on Sunday. FYI. I am already looking forward to returning here, before I return back to my home in Vancouver in a few weeks.

Parking is not the easiest here, there's a lot but it fills up quickly. The good news is that there is also street parking for an hour from 8 AM-6 PM. We walked in and didn't have a reservation but we got a table and was seated immediately. The service is tremendous here. Everyone we had come to our table was super attentive and friendly. Nothing was ever needed, nor had to ask for anything either. I started with the Caesar Salad, which was a good portion and the dressing was incredible. We didn't have lunch, so I inhaled it. Their rolls came out warm with a side of butter, also delicious and had a nice bite to it. I went with the Linguine Gigi, and asked if it could be prepare with no mushrooms. Totally no issues, and when it came out it was piping hot, al dente to perfection, and the sauce was so tasty I almost took the last roll and drug it through the bowl. (I didn't!) my colleague went with chicken parm, came with mashed potatoes and vegetables. For dessert my colleague had the tiramisu. I got the chocolate mousse. Mine was plated beautifully and was light; flavorful, and insanely delicious. My colleague was so happy he chose the tiramisu. I wish I caught names, but I'll do it next time. I will guarantee that I'll be back here whenever I'm in town from now on. Support small owned businesses!

They have parking behind the restaurant with less than a dozen spots. I ordered the caesar salad and freddo (charcuterie plate) as starters. The salad was tasty though a bit heavy on the dressing. The charcuterie was very good but the star on the plate were the cheeses, especially the parmigiano. For my entree I went with the Mediterranean cod which was cooked nicely. The portion was a bit small and I would have liked if it came with some vegetables or a side. The restaurant was a bit loud, but it was a Saturday night. Overall a nice meal with good food, just go in knowing the portions are on the smaller side.

Beatrice was a delightful surprise. Food and service were excellent; the staff was attentive and very accommodating of the youngest diner in our party - for a white table cloth restaurant, it is surprisingly kid-friendly. Portion sizes were beyond generous - check out the Vitello Milanese. We also tried the veal meatballs, the octopus, and the lamb chops. All were beautifully prepared, fresh, and flavorful. We were too stuffed for dessert, so our waiter whipped out a bottle of Sauternes. Only small bone to pick is the prices - they are fairly steep, but rest assured the quality of the food, the service and the ambience lives up to them.

We ordered a few appetizers and I ordered the chicken parm. Here's the breakdown: Arancini (10/10) - these little appetizers were great! Very well made and was just the right texture and consistency. Calamari (8/10) - good appetizer. The calamari was cooked just right with the right crisp and ability to bite into and through it. Not too chewy and it was of good quality. Chicken Parmesan - (8/10) - same here for this entree. The chicken was cooked just perfect with a good crispy outer layer covering the chicken. The pasta seemed like it was a cheese filled pasta, and I would have personally preferred a spaghetti with my chicken Parmesan. We had a large party of 20 people and they accommodated us and provided great service throughout the evening. The servers were constantly checking on us, refilling our water, and taking our drink orders. Overall, great visit to this Italian restaurant!

I ordered the tagliatelle but they ran out of that pasta so they switched the noodle to a spaghetti. The waitress advised all their noodles are made from scratch in house and oh my was it delicious! I probably could have had a second bowl. I also had a glass of their house rose which was a great compliment to the food. The people I went with got salads as appetizers which were actually massive and the salmon entree for main. Everything was great but I took one star as I thought the prices were a little high for the portion size of the pasta.Overall I would recommend for a date night or a family outing if budget is not a concern.

We were very disappointed after our most recent visit. After coming here in the past, and loving…read moreit, we had high expectations. To start, Service was very slow. There's some understanding when things take long when folks are busy, but for a 8:30 reservation we didn't order any food a little after 9:30pm. After only being served drinks for that first hour plus, we were hungry. We ordered bread. It never came. Salad came first, dropped and walked away. I took 2 bites and the look on my face prompted my wife to ask me what was wrong. Rotting greens was wrong. The arugula/spinach was rotting in plain view, and on my tounge. You know that taste of bitter greens, it tastes kinda slimy? Ugh. My wife immediately flagged the server down. They went to talk to the kitchen. Coming back, the server offered us a new dish, "maybe one that has less dressing" completely ignoring the issue in front of everyone and playing it like this was a preference thing, or our fault, as opposed to serving us inedible food and acknowledging that. I know right from there that we were going to have a bad time because when a restaurant messes up, and they blame you? It's like you're stuck in quicksand, not to recover. That exactly happened as the meal got worse. Then came the pastas, this was supposed to redeem everything. It didn't. The tagliatelle was cut in what seemed 5 different sizes, looked like pasta scraps. Looking beyond that the mushrooms were gritty and pretty dirty. Not a great taste again. Not really seasoned, just oil and dirt. The dish looked like a rush job, an after thought for a restaurant that prides itself on pasta. There was also the ravioli, which was also rushed as some of the pasta was undercooked. It was hard, and crunchy. Again, not a good mouth feel experience. My wife flagged the server down again, and we were dismissed again, they said "our pastas are generally cooked that way" Undercooked? Yikes. I'm not done yet, then came the beef. Preparation continued to be an issue as it was so tough we couldn't eat it all. Chew chew fest. We had half a plate of food untouched and the server came to say, "I'm all done for the night, bye." He knew we were disappointed left and right, dismissed us as it being our problem, and then bailed. New server didn't come until he was forced to clear our half eaten plate. No desert was offered, and we never got that bread... Needless to say I was excited to come back, and now we will never come back. I was also excited about the other restaurants, which we will never go to either. After $100+ per person, we left the restaurant still hungry :( We've sent dozens of people to Nora Gray over the years, and that will cease as well. Don't go, there's so many other places in Montreal that won't gaslight you when they mess up. Or just, won't mess up this way in the first place. We sent a email to avoid a public negative review. They said they "unfortunately don't remember it that way." More gaslighting and deflecting the problem. Don't worry, I'll make sure you're reminded. This review is a reminder of our experience, since you all seemed to have forgotten so quickly. Stay away. Buyer beware.
