We had a fabulous time here. Excellent food, large portions with a very friendly service. The restaurant was nicely decorated for Christmas, with pleasant music. A mix of 60s, 70s, and more contemporary so everybody happy. Prices also very correct, considering all the food is freshly made, no microwaved shortcuts here. The parmigiana was my absolute favorite. I don't eat meat so can't say anything about the meat dishes but they looked yummy.

Drinks were really good, and the pizza was amazing — so delicious! The arancini were also excellent. The service was very good. We were a big group, and our server handled everything really well. It was very busy and a bit crowded, barely room to move, but overall I definitely recommend this restaurant. Everything was very good!

My wife and I have traveled to Montreal for our first trip to the city and it has been amazing. The food and drink has been on par with our trips through Europe (Netherlands, Belgium, France) and Corneli has been at the apex of the trip so far. We were walking through Mount Royal and decided to catch a quick Uber to Jean Telon Market. Getting peckish, we decided to take a random walk through Little Italy and stumbled upon the restaurant for lunch. We were immediately seated, drinks served quickly and asked for orders (the accommodation for English was quite welcome). We started with the Bruschetta and loved the fresh tomato, delicious olive oil, and sweet balsamic. My wife ordered the Penne alla Romanoff (pictured) and I had the recommended Lasagna (pictured). My exact words to my wife "I think this might be the best lasagne I've had.... In my life". I should be careful as she makes a phenomenal bechamel with her lasagna :) Her Penne was al dente, the sauce was buttery and not overpowering, and paired quite well with the parmasean. Our drinks of a Spritz, Martini, and Manhatten were satisfying and done expertly. Much better than the price would suggest :) Shout out to our server Andrew who was very attentive, easily provided recommendations, and looked after us with care. If you get a chance, please check out Corneli, you won't be disappointed.

I visited Restaurant Corneli for my birthday and overall had a good experience, though I left feeling a bit disappointed. The food itself was excellent. The lasagna was rich and flavorful, the gnocchi had a great texture with a fresh tomato sauce, and the pizza was perfectly cheesy with a crispy crust. Everything tasted really authentic and made with care. The restaurant has a warm, classic Italian atmosphere, and the service was friendly and attentive throughout the meal. However, as someone who works in the service industry, I was a little surprised that nothing was mentioned or done for my birthday — no small dessert, acknowledgment, or gesture. It’s something I always make sure to include for guests at my own job, as it adds that personal touch and makes their special day memorable. Still, Restaurant Corneli delivers great food and a cozy dining experience. It’s just missing that extra bit of hospitality that would’ve made it perfect.

We dined at Restaurant Corneli in Montréal over the weekend. Parking in the area can be challenging, but once inside, the restaurant offers a refined and inviting atmosphere. We sampled a variety of dishes: the pasta was excellent and a clear highlight, while the pizza was enjoyable and well-prepared. The chicken with mushrooms, however, was less impressive compared to the other options.
