The food was great and the portions were bigger than expected. It is a bit expensive, but the servings are generous. One thing that would make the experience better is the menu, all the plate names are in Italian, and adding English or French translations would make it less overwhelming for the customer. The service was good, and I love that it’s a Bring Your Own Wine restaurant. I also really appreciated that they were not pushy about the tip, that only encouraged me to give more.

Oh, sure, if you enjoy being personally victimized by incredible value and authentic flavor, then Brussco in McMasterville is a real nightmare. Honestly, save yourself the trouble and stay in Montreal where you can pay $220 for a meal that tastes like a lukewarm microwave dinner—at least there, your wallet won't feel so heavy and burdened afterward. But if you must go, here is what you’re in for: The Review: A Total Disaster of Quality The "Problematic" Value First of all, they have the audacity to let you bring your own wine. Because clearly, we all love having extra money left over at the end of the month. The entire bill—two appetizers, two mains, and a latte—came to $110 including tax and tip. It’s frankly offensive. In Montreal, I could have paid double that for half the food and the added luxury of a waiter who forgets my name three times. Who does Brussco think they are, being "reasonable"? The Meatball Extortion We started with "Nona’s" homemade meatballs. I felt genuinely threatened. They were so soft and perfectly spiced with that mix of veal and pork that I was convinced a grandmother was actually lurking in the kitchen, waiting to beat me with a leather shoe if I left a single bite of that rich tomato sauce behind. The psychological pressure to enjoy something that delicious is just uncalled for. An Actual Caesar Salad Then came the Caesar salad. Imagine my shock when it actually tasted like... a Caesar salad. They used real anchovies in a homemade dressing. Apparently, they didn't get the memo that modern restaurants are supposed to use bottled mayo and call it a day. It was vibrant, salty, and authentic—absolutely exhausting for my taste buds. The Main Event Cruelty My friend had the All-Dress Pizza, which had the nerve to have a perfect "in-between" crust—not too thin, not too thick—and a criminal amount of cheese. I suffered through the Veal Parmesan. It was tender, loaded with cheese, and served with roasted vegetables that actually tasted like they grew in soil rather than a lab. It had that specific "Italian taste" that makes you realize how much you’ve been settling for elsewhere. It’s really quite rude of them to set the bar this high. The Final Insult To top it off, I ordered a decaf latte. Now, usually, decaf is supposed to taste like sad brown water. Not here. It was strong, rich, and delicious. They can’t even let you have a mediocre coffee to end the night? And the service? Excellent and kind. Just disgusting. Summary: Don't go here. I mean, unless you want better food than anything in Montreal for a fraction of the cost. I’ll be going back, but only so I can continue to be outraged by how much I love it.

Not sure if I just ordered the wrong meal but I don't see what is so great about this place. I was not the only person in my party of five who was disappointed. I would not choose to return unless obligated to be polite and attend someone elses event dinner. I ordered the meatball appetizer, they were tasty but a little salty. My main dish was the chicken paninni, I did not even eat a third of my sandwich, nor the fries. The whole meal was pasty, so much so that when asked if I wanted to take it home my response was no. I told the waitress that is was too pasty, the initial tasting was positive. Sure it had a nice taste/ flavor but was just non edible after a few bites, quite the turn off.
