Pizzeria dei Compari is a reliable slice of Italy right in the heart of Montreal’s Quartier Latin, and it’s the kind of spot that keeps locals and visitors alike coming back. Located on Saint-Denis, this pizzeria combines authenticity with a warm, laid-back vibe. The menu leans classic Italian, with wood-fired pizzas and fresh, handmade pastas that hit all the right notes. From crowd favourites like the quattro stagioni to unique options like escargot or smoked salmon, there’s a range here to satisfy everyone.
The pizza crust is just right—thin in the centre with a slightly chewy, crispy edge, paired with a rich, garlicky tomato sauce and a layer of mozzarella that brings it all together. Though it’s often busy, service is friendly, and the quality rarely wavers, even when the place is packed. Pizzeria dei Compari isn’t just another pizza spot; it’s a hidden gem that balances quality, variety, and value, earning its spot as a top choice for authentic pizza in Montreal.
