The atmosphere was really nice with lots of natural lighting, real plants, and well palced decor that worked with their theme. The staff was super friendly and since we didnt know what to get they gave a few recomendations. The chocolate pastry was flaky and light and decently fresh. I usually like the pastries that are a bit chewy or carmelized so maybe I should have gotten something else but it was still pretty good overall.

We stopped in on a Saturday and it was definitely busy lots of people studying, chatting, and enjoying donuts, which honestly just adds to the vibe. We were picking up a box for a friend's event, and of course I couldn't resist grabbing a few for myself too. The space is still just as cozy and charming. I love the mismatched furniture it gives the café such an authentic, relaxed, slightly hipster feel, like you could sit there for hours. It was also decorated really sweetly for Christmas, which made it feel extra warm and inviting. As for the donuts... there's so much variety. We tried a mix of flavors including passion fruit, Boston cream, cheesecake, tiramisu, framboise, and a caramel butter one all fresh, soft, and generously filled. It's honestly hard to choose because everything looks good. Pricing is also great for sharing or events: * 6 donuts for $20 * 12 donuts for $36 Perfect for bringing to a gathering or treating yourself to a little variety. Still a great spot years later cozy atmosphere, fun flavors, and a place that feels just as welcoming whether you're grabbing a box to go or staying awhile.

The focal point of the bakery is of course, the counter. There is a paper ticket system for service on busier days. When I went in, it was quiet so ticket optional. We were greeted right away by friendly staff. When I asked for recommendations, Marie took me on a visual and descriptive tour highlighting some of their specialty products. I went for the seasonal maple roll dusted with icing sugar, topped with white chocolate chips and a maple crust. Also took a slice of pear almond tart. They were both $4.50 each. The maple roll was densely packed and so much more than a snack. It's really bready so you could have it for breakfast. Slightly sweet and covered in a light glaze. The tart was light tasting and the pastry was full of buttery goodness. Texture is a little bit interesting because it's a cold tart, the juice from the pears soak into the almond paste and make it a little bit cold and slightly mushy. Some people might not like that but I found it ok. Service is friendly and attentive. Pastries are good but a bit expensive.

They have a great lunch counter in the back with soups, salads and wraps and sandwiches. I didn't get to try them this time but I will be back to give it a go next time. The pastries looked great still haven't tried mine yet as it's to early to start diving in to the sweets but they had some great options. I would return here as it's super close to me

He said he had put it aside to take home himself but gave it to me instead and said it was free of charge, and then he walked in the back. I was dumbfounded. I have never met such a generous shop-owner in my life, who truly cares about his clients satisfaction. Thank you kind owner of this bakery. You deserve all the wonderful things in life!

As for this being a sit down café, although they do have a few tables and chairs, I don't go there for that, only for the food quality which I genuinely appreciate.

I had not been to their new location, which isn't really new anymore, since it's been there for…read moremany years - so better yet, I'll say it's my first visit to their Sherbrooke St. location. It's only down a few stairs; so I'd really call it a half basement as there is a lot of natural light, which adorns their baking racks right behind the front windows. They have squares, brownies, cookies, pain au chocolate, croissants and scones and more to choose from. It was mid-afternoon so many of the trays were empty, but I got the last berry scone and a darn good looking bread pudding square. They also have a bunch of quiches and even matzoh balls which were a surprise; plus a section of dry goods, including what looked like those round Italian breadsticks called Taralli. I ended up turning the bread pudding into my on-the-go lunch and boy was it satisfying. Semi-sweet with a great consistency and moistness. Needless to say I ate the whole thing. I had the scone the next morning with a hot beverage, but in truth it was pretty dry and somewhat tasteless. I'd say a proper disappointment. The service was also a mixed bag, the counter person was patient and kind, while one of the owners came across as pretty curt and unfriendly. Not the kind of personality befitting a welcoming neighbourhood bakery (seems by quick perusal this vibe is noted in other reviews). With all that to distill, choosing an overall star rating was a bit challenging so I let math decide. The bread pudding was obviously a five, the scone a two, the counter person a four, and one for the other's attitude. If my mind calculator is correct, that averages it out to three which is fitting since it yields: average, which sums up the overall experience and taste. See

Their sweets counter would rival any of the Italian bakeries in the city. Mima and her staff are friendly and always accommodating. Don't get "shut-out", order your flat red pizza in advance for weekend pickup they sell out early, that also goes for their breads and other baked products.

TL;DR/The Short Version: Italian bakery. Four locations in…read moreMontreal. I tried the eclair. The caramel flavour of the icing was good, but the choux pastry and custard were a bit dry. The Long Version: So I had never heard of Rossetti before. They didn't exist when I was living in Montreal (the 2000s) and after I left, my husband (who was still my boyfriend at the beginning) and I would return often (at least a few times a year until 2019) and I'm pretty sure they weren't around then. We took a few years hiatus from visiting Montreal and then when we returned in 2024, boom, Rossetti had 4 different locations in the downtown core! What's their origin story? I have no idea. Their website has no "About Us" section. All I know is they opened sometime between 2020 and 2024, lol. I tried their caramel eclair ($5.50). The caramel icing was really tasty, but I found the choux pastry and the custard filling a bit dry. They have cannoli, amaretti, financiers, croissants and tarts. They also have sandwiches and pizza. I was disappointed that they didn't have sfogliatella, my favourite Italian pastry. Oh, they also have coffees and teas. The interior is nice with seating to dine in. Service was neutral. I may return to try another item. Maybe at one of their other locations. Review #16 (2025)

While in Miami last year, my husband, mother-in-law and I became big fans of the Rosetta on lower Collins Ave and then once they opened the one by Lincoln Center in NYC, we began to visit that one often since it's walking distance. After climbing to the Kondiaronk Belvedere on Mont Royal, we decided we needed sustenance on our way back down and we spied Rosetti as we were walking back to our hotel. Since it looked very similar to Rosetta, we decided to stop in and grab a bite. The sandwiches and pastries were on full display and we knew we made a good choice. I had a Pizza Margherita which was huge...I could have shared it. I also had a caramel tart for a sweet treat afterwards. Others in the group had sandwiches and other sweets which they all enjoyed. There are some stools at a counter downstairs and a little more seating upstairs with a few low tables along with some high tops and counters. The ladies who worked there were very nice. We enjoyed our food and think it's a great place for a quick bite that's a bit elevated from traditional fast food.
