Just got back. Our server was lovely and so knowledgeable about the area. Our food was delicious and so fresh! I highly recommend.
Reviews / Ratings for Wienstein & Gavino's
Located in the vibrant downtown area near Concordia. I didn’t expect the place to be this big, but the service was still great. Our waiter knew what he was doing and checked in regularly without being too intrusive. We ordered the Salsicce e rapini pizza and a lasagna, both were really delicious and different (in a good way) from what we’re used to. We also tried the homemade tiramisu, which was excellent. I also really liked the interior design of the restaurant, looked traditional and classic!
One of the best Italian restaurants in Montreal! This is our favorite place to go right after going to the cinema. The staff is extremely kind and always on their feet despite the restaurant being super busy. We really love the appetizer Arancini along with the different varieties of pasta and pizza for the actual meal. A definite 10/10 and would highly recommend this place located on Crescent street.
Great atmosphere and lovely patio, but the food was really corporate and just okay. Mostly, the service was inattentive. Your server could walk by you, make eye contact while you're asking for the bill, then not acknowledge you for another 20 minutes.
Nice atmosphere and great location, but parking was a bit hard to find. We tried the Margherita and Pollo Pesto pizzas, and they were honestly just average; I expected a bit more from an Italian restaurant. That said, the cocktails were really good and definitely the highlight of the night.
Amazing food and service. The only downside was the noise. It's so loud in there we had to yell at each other to be heard.
This place really needs to be inspected by the government. I went about 18 months ago and woke up later that night with food poisoning. My partner visited last night and woke up out of her sleep throwing up. Two separate instances over such a long span of time suggests serious recurring hygiene problems and a pattern of mismanagement. Service is outstanding and the food certainly tasted good but seriously, what are the odds? If I were you, I wouldn't risk it. It's not worth the money.
Everything was spot on for flavour. Service was very attentive. Very large open area. It did get a bit loud in general. The servers accommodated us to a little less nosy area. Really enjoyed the experience.
Excellent Food and Service, would definitely recommend to other's. And yes, I would dine there again!
Great food , friendly and professional staff . Highly recommend
We absolutely love Wienstein & Gavino’s—it’s a must-visit every year when we come to Montreal from Toronto. We were lucky enough to have Kamiah as our server again this year, and she was just as fantastic as we remembered. She’s incredibly knowledgeable about the menu and genuinely cares about your experience. At one point she said, “I want you to be as happy as I would want to be when I go out,” which really stuck with us. Her recommendations were spot on every time. We ended up eating there four times in three days and were never disappointed. The manager, Laura, was also very warm and welcoming, and it’s clear she’s well respected by the team. Already looking forward to coming back next year—W&G never disappoints!
Florence is just amazing so caring and nice Thank you Florence you deserve to be a manager.
The restaurant was terrific!! A good classic italian restaurant - nothing extraordinary but still delicious!
Second time in Montreal after 15 years. Was craving some good Italian food. Found this place. Stopped for lunch. We ordered the seafood pasta- mussels, shrimp, calamari, clams, squid- in a tomato sauce. It was amazing! Flavour was just right, pasta cooked perfectly and most importantly it was served hot! Loved every bite! We did our tour on Mount Royal and decided we should try it once more for supper since it was so delicious! My husband ordered the pesto, beef pasta- which was outstanding- must try! I ordered the same seafood pasta but it wasn’t as good. It was served warm not hot. A big let disappointment for me. And somehow the seafood tasted like it was just mixed with the sauce. It was mixing the flavours. If I visit Montreal I will definitely return! The portion was very generous, price is very reasonable and the staff & waiters were amazing!
Everything was fantastic! Mary chungus loves fresh pasta. And the pizza was amazing. Great food and service A+ in mary chungus' book
Delicious pizza- flavourful and authentic Italian vibes.
The bar tender today is honest, respectful. Highly recommend to anyone who wants a good dining experience with courteous employees. Thank you for the experience 🙏🏻
The lasagna was very good and my wife and daughter enjoyed their pasta dishes. Good service and a nice, clean restaurant.
Food was absolutely delicious and a lovely atmosphere. As someone with several dietary allergies, they were very accomidating to my needs. Listened, wrote down what i am allergic to and double checked that everything was being cooked without cross contamination. They even called a cab for us on the way out. Would definetly recommend
Friendliest most helpful staff. Octopus and arancini are really good. Perfect place for a frosty beer after some urban exploration.
delicious bowl of whipped cream
Delicious, pasta was overcooked like in any Italian restaurants.
Not what I expected
Very delicious food and excellent service. I really like the chorizo in my pasta as well. I highly recommend.
Weinstein’s is the place to be in Montreal. The real highlight is the bar staff, especially Santiago, who makes every occasion feel special and personal. Nowhere else will you receive this kind of service. The food is excellent and reasonable. Thank you so much to all the W&G team. Will continue to come here for years to come - highly recommend!
