🍝 Une belle découverte chez Birra & Pasta !
J'ai adoré souper en ville avec ma mère & ma fille - un moment précieux à trois générations.
On prend plaisir à explorer d'autres quartiers & à découvrir leurs commerces locaux.
Ambiance chaleureuse, plats savoureux… on reviendra, c'est certain !

Came after work meetings & was beyond impressed with the food, setting & service. Had the carbonara pasta with burrata & nearly died & went to heaven. It was honestly one of the best carbonaras I've had in quite a while, & more than reasonably priced! Calamari & tartare were also equally impressive (the tartare had a bit of a kick to it that was surprising so if you like a bit of spice, you'll love this clever twist). Found this restaurant by chance via a google search, now it's one I'll make sure to keep on my list should I ever find myself back in Quebec City's old town.

Just had a lovely dinner. Very quiet evening as it's so cold. The gnocchi has a wonderful pesto sauce & my clam pasta had a zesty garlic, butter sauce. The portions were well sized! Our bilingual waitress was a peach. Lovely restaurant, though we would prefer no music. Thanks!

The food was delicious! All 4 of us ordered the Gigi pasta dish & Caesar salad. Everyone loved both! I am not a huge blue-cheese fan, but I loved the depth & added flavour a touch of blue cheese added to the salad. Well done, chef! I reccommend this restaurant for its convivial atmosphere, attentive service & great food at an affordable price.

Sad to say but my experience was average & probably less than average considering the price. Pizza was good. The pasta of one of the dish we had at our table, were undercooked with big lumps. Service was fair. Ambiance - noisy.

Good & friendly service & quick.. but the food was not as good as it use to be, pasta seemed undercooked or old.

I got myself the carbonara & my friend got the margherita pizza. The pizza was great, no complaint. I tasted it a bit myself & it was very tasty. The carbonara (pasta is in ravioli form) was on the tasty side but it was way too small for a 24$ dish. It should've been 14-15$ price range for the quantity that was served. Then we got sfogliatelle as desserts (picture). I've never had it so I can't really compare it but while it was tasty, the puff pastry felt dry/too cooked. Not sure if that's how it's supposed to be. Overall, food was tasty, its just that I didn't feel full when I left & for 40$ a meal+dessert, it's a bit disappointing. I'll get the pizza next time. Servers were nice, ambiance was enjoyable.

Enjoyed a decent couple of bowls of pasta here on a quiet January afternoon after a snow storm. We needed a refuge from the weather, Our waiter was attentive, the food was tasty & the wine was good. It was a bit overpriced & it was reheated rather than freshly cooked which is why I have dropped the rating down a bit. No doubt it would be a completely different experience on a summer night.

Very dark & gloomy ambience . Food was overpriced & mediocre at best . The pasta served with chicken parm was an unattractive looking glop with a vodka sauce that did not complement the red sauce on chicken . The pasta tasted as bad as it looked .
