Ordered two pastas & a pizza. The pizza was great, my pasta was average. Overall, with the service, we had a good experience.

J'ai commandé les pâtes « Di Mare » un mardi après-midi &, malheureusement, j'ai eu une réaction allergique modérée peu de temps après les avoir mangées. En général, je ne réagis que lorsque les fruits de mer ne sont pas frais, ce qui m'a inquiétée. De plus, les pâtes étaient assez fades & ressemblaient plutôt à un plat maison simple, préparé avec des ingrédients qui ne semblaient pas très frais.

I ordered the'Di Mare' pasta on a Tuesday afternoon & unfortunately had a medium allergic reaction soon after eating it. I usually only react when the seafood isn't fresh, so that was concerning. On top of that, the pasta itself was quite plain & tasted more like a simple home-cooked meal made with ingredients that didn't seem fresh.

Las entradas estuvieron ricas. Las pastas les hizo falta sazón. El mesero olvido hasta darnos agua. Pedimos el salero en más de tres ocaciones antes de recibirlo. No estaba lleno el restaurante fue un domingo a las 7pm.

Ate at a patio table & loved it. The food was fabulous & the service wonderful. The pasta de la mere was very good with a nice selection of seafood. Tomato base. The Caprese salad was nice maybe a bit light on the basil but a very tasty appetizer. I had the penne arribiatta with meat balls. Very tasty with just the right amount of hot pepper taste. A truly authentic Italian meal in the art district of Quebec city.

Good Italian restaurant with a French twist.

Ordered the salmon tartare, mushroom & chicken pasta, & the mushroom & ham pizza. (Forgot the exact dish names)

The salmon tartare was nice, i ordered it with a medium spice level which was perfect if you're looking for something flavorful without overpowering the salmon taste. It went very well with the crouton, however I wish they provided more than just 3 as you're left with over half the tartare after finishing the crouton.

The pizza was very Quebec style, the cheese & dough were softer rather than the crunchy/crispy crust you'd find at a wood-fired restaurant. The toppings complemented the more neutral-tasting cheese & overall it was good. This is definitely a more fork & knife kind of pizza rather than one you'd pick up slice by slice.

The pasta was decent, had a very Herby & mushroom flavor with an olive-oil based sauce. The noodles were on the softer side & the tomatoes went well with the rest of the flavors.

Overall, the atmosphere was quite lively & can get a little louder but the interior design provided an old-intimate kind of feel.
