What guests say about Wienstein & Gavino's

Wienstein & Gavino's in Montreal seems to be especially appreciated for its fresh pasta, pizzas, generous portions, and often attentive service. The atmosphere is attractive, warm, and lively, but several reviews mention that it is noisy, especially for a quiet evening. A few customers also reported slow service and inconsistent experiences with certain dishes, so the experience can vary depending on the time and what you order.

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.

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!

We enjoyed ourselves but if you want a quiet date night it might not be the place. It was fine with us but like I said, busy.

The service was excellent and I even took a chance to order the waitress suggested. Fabulous 👌. Nice selection of good wines, fun atmosphere and pretty busy on a Friday night.

Very nice upscale Italian restaurant. We had reservations for a group of 9. Great service. Complimentary bread with oil/balsamic and oil/pesto to start. We split a pizza. It was delicious. High quality ingredients. The infused chili oil was delicious but be careful...it's sneaky spicy. Overall great experience.

We went to Wienstein & Gavino’s to celebrate a birthday and had a great experience. The food was excellent, and we especially loved the calamari appetizer. The Pasta Sofia and the steak were also excellent, and the mojito was very refreshing. For dessert, the chocolate cheesecake was my favorite. The restaurant was quite busy, but the service was still very fast. Our appetizers and main dishes arrived quickly and everything was perfectly timed. A special thank you to our server, Meghan. She was incredibly friendly, patient, and professional. She made us feel very welcome and took great care of us throughout the evening. Overall, the food, the service, and the atmosphere were all wonderful. We will definitely come back again!

Returning to W&G, we enjoyed a flavorful burrata bruschetta and incredibly cheesy mac & cheese. While the pesto pasta was good, the chicken felt bland. Sam provided great service, even recommending the homemade tiramisu. Overall, it remains a solid choice for a pleasant dining experience.

Not good for large groups. They made us wait for 40 minutes at the door for a table that was reserved in anticipation. We were stopped at the door saying the full party of 18 needed to be present to be seated. Twelve of us were present hoping to order drinks and apps while waiting for the person whose birthday we were celebrating. When asked to be seated instead of standing by the door, the manager was defensive of their policy instead of accommodating for us as the clients. It used to be a great place for large groups, with a reliable and speedy experience, but management is choosing to be less accommodating

The dishes are very small, the place is elegant, but there are adjustments to ask the shopkeeper to put an end to this. I'm talking about servers

The Mac and cheese was pretty good, and the Moscow mule was very good. The pizza however was really bad, the sauce too sweet. The pasta good tho
