Restaurant Il Miglio Express

So glad I found this place! Amazing pasta- perfectly al dante with incredible sauces. Will come again!

I honestly rarely go out to restaurants to eat pasta because I can cook great pasta at home, but the only exception would be if the pasta is handmade. This place is legit! I had the best gnocchi and mushrooms pasta. The highlight was really the mushroom pasta, the sauce was rich and very deep in flavor. The service from the chef itself is amazing as he was extremely friendly and nice. I would definitely return!

Excellent food overall for quick and efficient fix of my fresh pasta craving. Everything is on point (if we still say that in 2024). Dishes are cooked right in front of you while. Gnocchis are soft and buttery, guanciale in the carbonara is fried just enough to be crispy yet not burned. Only downside is this location is mostly for takeout, but they do have a table for 8-10 people to sit communally.

Such a great and delicious spot. Sandwiches, salads, and pasta. Authentic Italian food. It’s quick, clean and easy, no table service, just order and sit down. They also sell fresh frozen pasta to go and a few other dry goods, sweets and Italian food related items. Highly recommend!

If you're looking for an authentic Italian dining experience without booking a flight to Italy, Il Miglio is the place to be. I’ve tried countless Italian restaurants, and none have left me as satisfied and impressed as this one. If I could give this place more than 5 stars, I absolutely would. Everything about Il Miglio is genuine, from the chef's passion for authentic Italian cooking to the carefully selected ingredients that go into each dish. The dough is made with a traditional touch, the sauces are rich and flavorful, and the attention to detail is unmatched. The flavors are not just there; they shine in every bite. Each dish takes you on a journey to Italy with its depth of taste and authenticity. One of the highlights of dining at Il Miglio is their daily special. I always end up choosing the dish of the day, and I'm never disappointed. The creativity and variety they bring to the table make every visit a new and exciting culinary adventure. I’m never afraid to try something new here because I know it will be exceptional. In fact, I went today and just had to write this review. Today's dish was the Rigatoni Gricia, and it was absolutely divine. What sets this Il Miglio apart is its consistency and dedication to quality. I sometimes drive all the way from Laval just to dine here, even though there are other franchisees under the same name. This particular location surpasses them all, offering an experience that feels uniquely special every single time. The ambiance is cozy and welcoming, making it perfect for a relaxed meal with family or friends. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable, always ensuring that every guest feels at home. You can taste the love and effort that goes into the food, which is rare to find these days. Whether you’re craving a classic pasta dish or something from their ever-changing daily specials, Il Miglio delivers on every front. It’s the kind of place that turns a casual meal into a memorable dining experience. Do yourself a favor and visit Il Miglio, you won’t be disappointed. It's Italian cuisine at its finest, right in our backyard.

Amazing Italian food served with a smile. All the classics and daily changing specials. Went for lasagne for late lunch and didn’t need dinner.

This is a hidden gem at the edge of the Old Montréal. The food is great and the owner is generous and nice. You can eat standing up on a high table, but it's mostly takeout. There is however a nice terasse in summer. Try the gnocchis, they melt in your mouth.

Chanced upon this based on good reviews. Good quality and delicious pasta 😋😋

I come here once a week to get my pasta fix. I've pretty much ordered every pasta on the menu from the risotto to the lasagna to carbonara, they're all pretty decent, except it's always a bit off, too salty, too sour. Only the linguini with pistachio pesto is perfect every time. Not too creamy, not too salty, nice nutty flavor, pasta cooked just right. Can't go wrong with this one!

For a food court Italian place it was absolutely amazing. Quick service and despite that the gnocchi was beautifully plated with just the right amount of Parmesan. I felt that the texture was right on but my son felt the texture was inconsistent. The sauce was simple and delicious. Would definitely recommend if you are in Centre Eaton and craving Italian. W enjoyed it with a glass of wine at the Bar Vin which was perfect.

I came here for the first time this week and I wish I knew about it when it opened in February! I am in a constant state of craving pasta and there aren't many options around my work so this place was much-needed. A full, satsifying pasta meal for a casual lunch price. My Italian friend told me that all the Italians were saying it was good (and they are quite picky) so I was excited to try it. Because it was my first time the man cooking said I had to have Campanelle with mushrooms and truffle so of course I got that and it was perfect. The sauce was smooth, perfectly flavored and stuck to the pasta very well and there were tons of mushrooms. My friend didn't know what cannelloni was and the man working the cash register said he could try it and he ended up giving us an entire dish of two cannelloni. Also so good. Perfect filling. Although we ate a lot on this trip because it was our first time, just one dish would have been enough for an ordinary day. They also have a few desserts in their refrigerated area that I'd like to try, I heard the tiramisu was good. The space is really bright and the people were super nice. It's been less than a week and I already want to go back and try everything else on their menu.

I will never apologize for desiring so much pasta in my life. Fairly priced, al dente and savoury dishes- and you are going to complain about that? Give me a break. Under Le Club Chasse et Pêche, Le Filet and Le Serpent, the most charming sibling Il Miglio was born on June 16, 2017. Il Miglio is a casual Italian restaurant that focuses mainly on the surrounding offices, but that won't stop me from making a pit stop. They have 2 locations: Plateau Mont-Royal and Griffintown. If you have some time to spare and want quality lunch without breaking the bank, Il Miglio is truly the way to go. Their establishment consist of daily fresh pasta. That's right, if the only thing you know is Catelli or Barilla, you're truly missing out on the art of savouring fresh pasta. Whoever told you that carbs aren't good for you haven't spent enough time at Il Miglio. Campanelle served with mushroom and truffle. I'm telling you, Italian is the only way to go. Besides Moccione, I think Il Miglio truly stole my heart. Al dente mafaldine amatricana with a glass of wine during lunchtime is truly the only way to go. Go see Francesco and his staff at the Griffintown location and you'll know exactly why I'm raving about this place. The only thing that truly breaks my heart is that their location isn't open on weekends.

If you are looking for a quick exquisite lunch or a casual but refined dinner this is the spot! Delicious and made with love, excitement and dedication to the finer art or Italian simplistic cuisine.

This place is amazing. Really affordable and high quality, plus their 3-6 special of a pasta and a drink for....10$! Is amazing. It's a rare treat and overall exceptional when a place goes the extra mile to make you feel like you spent your money well, as opposed to all the other places where you leave with a pit in your wallet and sadness in your stomache. Support this place! 5 stars from me
