Restaurant Tre Marie

Found this place by accident. Loved it. Had traditional dishes and not so traditional. Quaint but homey feeling. Excellent food.

Hoping to kickstart labour, we headed here for a lasagna feast. I’d always admired the tidy, traditional building exterior, and I was curious to experience the interior of Tre Marie. We found it to be brighter and more pleasant than many traditional Italian restaurants. The service was very warm, and the food was delicious– and served in generous portions. When the waitstaff heard about our goal of inducing labour, they plied us with their homemade hot sauce. In the end, something worked: Our baby arrived two days later. We’ll definitely celebrate future events with lasagna at Tre Marie!

This place is the old school neighborhood Italian restaurant you’ve been looking for… Everything was wonderful; the friendly service, the great food, the reasonable prices. I had the three pasta sampler, my daughter the fusilli with rose sauce, my wife the gnocchi. Just delicious! Go and enjoy!

Tastes like really good home cooking. The pasta is cooked just right, the cheese was tasty, osso bucco cooked perfect.

The food here is great! Everything is so fresh and the staff are very friendly. If feels like Italy. Worth the trip!

Quaint Italian restaurant in the heart of Little Italy. True Italian ambience. Family run business. We were there for lunch. Restaurant very busy but staff all working hard and incredibly friendly.
I had Fish with Brodo to start. Fish was well prepared. Not ‘to die for’ but I would get it again. The Brodo was awesome! Definitely try this if you are here.
Overall, a very nice lunch experience at a true Italian restaurant run by people who care.

After trying to find a spot for my family, we stumbled upon this casual trattoria. The ambience was ‘homey’ and quaint. The food was delicious, simple, and consistently good amount all dishes ordered. We had the lasagna which was good and the rigotoni with meatballs. A little sauce-​y, but good.

Want to know what family run trattoria in Italy is like? Go to Tre Marie on Clark, don’t look out the windows and you are in Italy. Went there last night and was amazed. The food was outstanding, the staff warm and friendly. Just a great place.

I had the veal in white wine sauce with a side of pesghetti in red sauce. I know a lot of people have reservations about eating veal, and how the practice in which they’re raised is inhumane and whatnot — I understand, I respect that, but I don’t care. I believe animals were meant to be eaten, if not, someone please explain to me why are they so tasty? It would be inhumane if they farmers flooded the barns with Celine Dion’s greatest hits album through loud speakers and made the cow wear a party hat — THAT I will not stand for… no offence to Celine as she is a frequent customer to this place — you keep doing your thang girlfriend.
The highlight of this plate was the veal itself — obviously. Tender slices of milk-​fed veal smothered in white wine sauce, the aroma coming off this plate made my nose drool. Meaty and bovine in taste, the veal was swimming in this sweet sauce that I would have been more than happy to drink as a soup; which says a lot considering, I don’t like soup! The pasta as always was perfectly al dente and tossed with the homemade tomato sauce.

Outstanding. The dishes here are uniformly good. I’ve eaten here twice. This is an authentic and very tasteful Italian restaurant in the dwindling (becoming more multi-​ethnic, that is) Little Italy neighborhood of Montréal. It is run by Italians who know their craft and is not a trendy eatery run by those blending California-​Italian cuisine or some other newfangled spin on Italian. This has evidently been a Montréal institution for decades. I recommend it highly.
