" Il Pagliaccio is superb! On my birthday visit, they treated us like royalty. From the delicious food, notably the house-made Gnocchi, to the perfect wine pairings. The service was attentive but not intrusive, just the right balance. The only minor note was that I’d like to see larger portion sizes, especially for sharing. Overall, an experience worth every penny! " (*Curated Review*)

" I have to say, Il Pagliaccio is one of the best places for authentic Italian food in Montreal! Our server was super attentive and ensured we enjoyed our meals. I ordered the ravioli and was seriously impressed by how fresh it tasted. I do wish the deserts offered larger portions, though! Still, this restaurant is a staple I will definitely return to. " (*Curated Review*)

" My visit to Il Pagliaccio was less than perfect this time. While the service was friendly and helpful, I found the food below expectations. My tomato bruschetta was underseasoned, and the mains did not impress me either. Overall, it felt a bit overpriced for what we received. However, I'll give it another chance based on the many good reviews. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Il Pagliaccio after a long day of exploring Montreal, and it was perfect! The warm ambiance was just what we needed to unwind. The food was delightful; I had the veal and it was incredibly tender. Flavors were rich and well-balanced. While the service was great, I felt a bit rushed towards the end of the meal. Still, a fabulous dinner overall. " (*Curated Review*)

" I want to highlight the consistency at Il Pagliaccio! Each visit is a gourmet journey through Italy, and I've never once been disappointed. What I find particularly endearing is their commitment to customer satisfaction, which is always present. I recommend the homemade pasta; it never fails to impress. Just this last visit, I felt the portion sizes could be a bit more generous. Nevertheless, a fantastic place! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful experience at Il Pagliaccio! The service was friendly and welcoming, making us feel right at home. I opted for the ragu, and while it was good, I felt it could use a bit more seasoning for my taste. On the other hand, the desserts were nothing short of spectacular, particularly the limoncello dessert which reminded me of summers in Italy. Overall, a good meal within a charming atmosphere! " (*Curated Review*)

" A delightful evening at Il Pagliaccio! Everything about our meal was wonderful, from the attentive service to the exquisite food. They truly capture the essence of Italian cuisine, with every ingredient carefully selected. I especially loved the tortiglione amatriciana. Just one note: I found the portions small for the prices, which was a guest bit disappointing compared to what some other Italian restaurants offer. " (*Curated Review*)
