Restaurant Vino Rosso — Restaurant in Montreal

Service was absolutely wonderful. The waiters were attentive, courteous and quick. Their attitude and cheerfulness was definitely the highlight of our dining experience that evening, though the competition wasn't exactly fierce, as you will see as you read the rest of this review.

Food was barely acceptable for the price. I expected much more considering the glowing reviews and price tag, and I'm not talking about the portions. Both my partner and my dish were lacking in depth and way, WAY over salted. None of the bright, aromatic and complex flavors Italian food is known for. At some point I began doubting the freshness of the clams in my pasta. Their Tiramisu was good though, thank god for that.

Atmosphere was absolutely awful. There was some kind of party going on in the reception hall next door, and the loud music from the outdoors overlapped with the downright awful indoor music choice. Royalty free pop music covers in a restaurant that markets itself as an upscale authentic Italian restaurant? Really? Combined with the Uber Eats ringer going off every half minute, I was very close to just getting up and leaving....

My wife and I celebrated our 10th Anniversary. This was our first visit to Vino Rossa and we had a fantastic night! We were there for 2 1/2 hours, we never stay that long at any restaurant, and it was by choice! The food was simply spectacular, the same level as any high-end restaurant I've ever eaten at. And I mean everything; the focaccia with olives and peppers to start, the crab cake entrées, our main dishes, the pistachio ice cream cake for dessert, all of it was five-star for both my wife and I. Obviously, that's important when deciding to ever return to a restaurant, but it was our waiter who made the night. His genuine friendliness and hospitality was through the roof. He made us laugh constantly, he took care of absolutely everything we needed without ever needing to ask, every suggestion he made was spot on. It was just the perfect storm of pace, atmosphere, food and hospitality. It’s really rare for us to get a night out to ourselves, so when we do and it turns out amazing, we really appreciate it. I'd recommend this gem of a...

I had my engagement party there and I couldn't be more pleased with the outcome. The food was AMAZING and PLENTY. All our guests felt as if they were individually and personally taken care of as the staff delivered an excellent service making sure that all courses were served in a promptly manner and wine and soft drinks kept getting replenished throughout the night. Our guests and ourselves had an unforgettable night. The ambiance was DELIGHTFUL. The owner of the restaurant was very welcoming and most importantly, the price was affordable and more than justifiable. The QUANTITY, QUALITY and TASTE of food delivered exceeded all standards. The privacy and coziness of their private room made our experience so unforgettable. The customer service was TOP NOTCH! We appreciated the flexibility to decorate the room and have our own music to customize the event. Vino Rosso is definitely my favorite restaurant in town. We had an amazingly pleasant experience! Definitely to be repeated for...
