This was one of those places that McGill students had their parents take them for dinner during university while I attended there several years ago. On a recent visit to Montreal, I brought my husband there to see if it was still as good as I remember. It was. Pasta was fresh, menu as extensive as ever, bread and oil dipping sauce delicious. The place is huge and we were seated right away, even on a busy night. A good place to go for good italian food downtown.
