Incredible disappointment. I went here on my last night in Montreal based on its proximity to where I was staying, a recommendation from Fodor's, and the fact that Pizzeria Napoletano only takes cash. Unfortunately, it was not the last meal I had envisioned on my vacation.\n\nThe atmosphere of this place is nice, I will give it that. It's small, intimate, and in decent weather, they open it up to the outside.\n\nService, however, was a bit inattentive. I had to ask for more water, and I also had to exchange a plate with another place setting myself because the one in front of me was dirty.\n\nFurther, and most importantly, the food was overpriced and mediocre. My salad, which was a small plate (smaller than a typical side salad) of vegetables and cheese drizzled with an olive oil vinaigrette, was originally $16, but they knocked $3 off because they had run out of burrata mozzarella and had to substitute ricotta. It was decent, but it was just vegetables. My dining companion's risotto, on the other hand, had to be sent back because it came out rock hard undercooked. However, even to do that, it took effort to flag down someone because all of the wait staff was having a conversation and couldn't be bothered to attend to the two parties of customers in the restaurant. The menu was very limited too, and for an Italian restaurant, there was a serious lack of anything resembling pasta.\n\nI wouldn't come back here, and I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone either.
