What parent doesn’t dream of enjoying a delicious plate of fresh pasta, glass of vino in hand, while the kids are too busy devouring their spaghetti to even think about complaining?
I recently had the pleasure of discovering Pastamore in Dollard-des-Ormeaux, and let me tell you — it’s an absolute hidden gem for families (and all fresh pasta lovers!). Here’s why you’ll want to bookmark this article for your next restaurant outing — with or without the kids.
The moment you step inside the restaurant, it smells like heaven. The sauces are simmering, the pasta is cooking, and your mouth starts watering instantly. The place is spotless, and you feel welcome right away. You quickly realize that here, the food is fresh, made with care, and served straight from the heart.
I had the chance to chat with Vince, the owner — a second-generation restaurateur who took over the family business. Everything is made in-house: the pasta, the sauces, the chicken, the sausage (oh my, the sausage!), the desserts… even the bread is custom-made in a family-run bakery.
I tried the cheese ravioli with their diavolo sauce — absolutely divine. And their spicy eggplant sauce? Perfect for slathering on fresh bread… an absolute treat! There’s always a daily special, the portions are generous, and the flavors are truly unforgettable.
At lunchtime, it’s a casual dining vibe, perfect for a quick (and tasty!) stop. In the evening, the service is a bit more elevated — ideal for a relaxed dinner in good company.
You can bring your own wine (major bonus for parents who need a little moment to themselves). And the best part?
The prices are unbelievable:
Pastamore is more than just a restaurant. It’s a story of family, passion, and perseverance. Even their server told us how much she loved the place… so much that she decided to work there! Vince also offers an impressive catering service (think: an 8-foot sub for 50 people!) — perfect for parties.
