Great vibe, great staff, warm and welcoming all around. The walk along the canal was further than expected in the cold, but that’s not the restaurant’s fault.

About the restaurant

Located in Pierrefonds, Quebec, Vivaldi serves authentic Italian cuisine in an elegant atmosphere. Every menu item is prepared with high quality ingredients including handmade pasta, pure olive oil, fresh mozzarella and the freshest meats and produce available. Vivaldi has a full bar featuring an extensive wine selection by the glass.

Start out with an appetizer to share at Vivaldi such as the fried calamari or the bruschetta. Choose from classic Italian favorites such as the grilled chicken parmesan, the scallops with pesto or the linguine primavera. For dessert, try the tiramisu or the homemade chocolate cake and a cup of specialty coffee.

About the restaurant

Les Mômes offers a friendly table where French techniques combine with a love of local products and an eco-responsible logic, thought out by Chef Yoann Van Den Berg. We break the codes of classic gourmet cuisine as we have seen and reviewed it, and we appreciate the attentive service and a warm, yet festive atmosphere, worthy of a dinner party. Don't forget to bring your own wine!

The table d’hôte is the way to go, the braised beef and Wellington are great. The ambience and restaurant are very cute and the food is very fresh since it’s all locally sourced. Great place for an intimate dinner or small group of friends.:)

This charming and intimate restaurant serves a generous and creative fresh market cuisine, cheerfully prepared by chef-owners Marc De Canck and Olivier de Montigny. At La Chronique, the pleasures of the table are always front and centre. But in addition to the delights it serves up, the restaurant is also known for its extensive wine list awarded ''Best Award of Excellence'' by Wine Spectator in 2024, welcoming décor and impeccable service.
