What guests say about Pistachio

Pistachio is especially appreciated for its original and very tasty desserts, with several reviews mentioning beautiful presentation, a good selection of pastries, and classics like baklava, trompe-l’oeil pastries, and pistachio ice cream. The service is often described as warm, fast, and attentive, and the atmosphere as pleasant, cozy, or relaxed. However, a few customers find the prices high for the portions, and some experienced slow or uneven service. Overall, it is a much-loved spot for a dessert outing, but the value for money can vary depending on the experience.

A very cute dessert place. Comfortable atmosphere and super welcoming people. The tiramisu was super delicious and we loved the Nutella croissant. They definitely don't skimp on chocolate!

Lovely dessert spot. The desserts weren’t overly sweet and they have a good variety. The mango trompe-oeil we took had a layer of something like a mango shaved ice inside, which would be really refreshing for the summer, the person who was there was also very kind!

I visited Pistachio in downtown Montreal with four friends yesterday, and unfortunately the experience was very uncomfortable. As soon as we entered, we greeted the staff member and asked how she was doing, but she completely ignored us and gave us a dirty look. When she asked if we were dining in or taking out and we said dining in, she gave another unpleasant look that made us feel unwelcome. Shortly after, she told us the restaurant was closing, which clearly felt like she wanted us to leave. What made it stranger was that when other customers walked in afterward, she reacted similarly toward them — giving uncomfortable looks and seeming visibly upset. We understand that everyone can have a bad day, but customer service should still be respectful and professional. The atmosphere made us feel like we weren’t welcome there at all, which is disappointing when you’re just trying to enjoy a dessert place with friends. I hope management looks into this and ensures customers are treated respectfully in the future.

Service is great and the prices are so reasonable and the desserts are delicious. The Dubai chimney cake is worth a try!

We visited this spot when we took a trip to Montreal and it was super cute! We took a pistachio gelato and a mango trompe-l’œil, and it was delicious. We also loved the customer service. 10/10 recommend 💯
