Review from Katherine W.
Montréal, QC
Alright, so I should preface this review by saying that, because Eduardo's is a BYOB, we did a lot of Bing the OB and then I did more than my fair share of making sure all the wine bottles were empty at the end of the meal.
That said, this place was awesome. BYOB is like a godsend, and the pasta was cheapish and delicious, and they were able to seat 16 people (16!!!) within a few minutes. We got there early and a friend had called ahead in an effort to make sure that we wouldn't be milling around, waiting for a table, and it worked out really well. Everything we ordered apart from the bruschetta was delicious. The bruschetta was a little bit like salsa, but still ok. Of course, there's a slight chance that the reason I think everything else was fabulous is that the bruschetta was the appetizer and I was still relatively sober for that, but I don't think so.
Long story short, I highly recommend Eduardo's. -
Review from Dana F.
I've gotta start by saying that my favorite part of Eduardo's is the BYO. I'm partial to anywhere I can bring a cheap bottle of red. We went as a group of 8 and it took us about an hour and a half to be seated - we were ready to pop open the bottles on the side bench while the groups of 2 or 3 people passed us by! Heads up, they don't take reservations. That was not so fantastic, but as soon as the wine got flowing the mood was substantially lifted.
Because I'm a fan of irony, I ordered salmon at the pasta place. It was a little bit dry, but again, it's my fault for ordering fish at a pasta place! According to my colleagues, the pasta was fantastic. The garlic pasta and the fettucine alfredo were group favorites.
Plusses are the fact that it's a loud, cozy, wine-friendly environment where they don't rush you through your meal once you finally get seated. Just don't forget to BYO! -
Review from Rob T.
One of the most reasonably priced Italian restaurants I've been to in Montreal. Eduardo's serves unapologetic, hearty, and hefty Italian cuisine at extremely reasonable prices. I LOVE this place, not so much for the food, but for the great times I've had with my friends coming here over the past few years. The fact that you can bring your own wine, which they will cork for free for your table, makes this place a drunken, feel great, good eats kind of place with very friendly service - and there's this invitingly cozy charm here that can't be explained unless you've eaten here..seriously!
My friends and I recently ate here and had one hell of great meal: cold antipasti salad to start (awesome-see pics) $8.95C, Lasagna $9.95C (huge portion and delicious), and Veal Picatta served with a side of Fettuccini Alfredo $12.95C (very good quality and value). We were pleasantly stuffed while we sat and watched the blizzard outside as we leisurely downed 2 bottles of wine...good times! Although, I didn't have it this visit, Eduardo's makes one of the best minestrone soups that I highly recommend - and at $4.95C you get huge bowl of it!
Look, you're not going to find any award wining dishes here, but Eduardo's is not about that. Eduardo's, for me, is about the unreplicated experience it provides, that you must check out for yourself. For that, Eduardo's gets 5 stars! -
Review from Marie K.

meh is the perfect way to express how I feel about this restaurant. I've been here a whole bunch of times because I had a friend who LOVED it here. Everytime I've gone, I've never been very impressed with their food. Very average Italian food. not very original, nor particularly delicious. Not somewhere I would suggest, especially since there are far superior places in the same neighborhood.

Eduardo's is a good, cheap, fun drunk time. BYOB, cozy decor, albeit very loud on a friday night. Crowded, tiny, but warm and cozy, with friendly service. I had the tortellini with rose sauce, which was perfectly adequate but nothing to write home about. Everyone else dining with me seemed content with their meals. This isn't mind blowingly good food. It's just a big ol'e plate of pasta, cooked right, for a very very decent price. They seem laid back about letting you linger around with the rest of your wine for awhile, which was nice, and the atmosphere and warmt of the place really charmed me. I know where I'll be going next time I have a cheap bottle of red and a craving for carbs. Eduardo's, you's a sexy laid back son of a bitch. -
Review from Matthew A.
I just LOVE Eduardo's!! It is a very popular bring your own wine restaurant in Montreal. It has been around for about 20 years. Come early or later as you will have to wait in line.
The menu is Italian. I love that you can chose your pasta sauce: Rose, Alfredo, or classic tomato. The bread is also delicious.
Located up on the Plateau, on the corner of St. Denis.

Review from Sean B.
Went here based on Matthew A's review. The man knows what he's talking about.
We had the brushetta as an appetizer. While not the best brushetta in the world (merely just chopped tomato and a little basil on the bread, no cheese), it still had enough flavor to satisfy one's mouth. It was also nice that they had a little salad in the middle of the plate, so basically you're getting two dishes for the price of one (at a bargain rate of $6.95).
My main dish was the meat tortellini in the rose sauce, and my friend got the fettuccine Alfredo. The pasta seemed very fresh. Both sauces were creamy, but not overly so. The rose sauce was flavorful, but the alfredo was a little on the bland side. No complaints though since each was a little under 10 dollars.
Lastly, the server was very attentive and the hostess was H-O-T. The latter is irrelevant for the most part but hey, if you need eye candy during your meal, this place ain't so bad on a a Friday night.
And matthew is right, this place is BUSY. We got there just in time (around 8:15). There was a substantial # of people waiting by the time we left 45 minutes later. -
Review from Olivia G.

I've been to Edwardo's twice now, and its definitely a good meal for a good price. I'd say the worst thing on the menu is the fettuccine alfredo (kind of try and pasty), but everything else is really, really good.
The second time I had the Surf and Turf: a filet mignon, shrimp and pasta for $24.00. That meal anywhere else would have been over $30.
Great place to go with friends and a bottle of wine, in my opinion WAY better then going to the factory that is l'Academie across the street. -
Review from Keewi H.
Montréal, QC
(Ben writing in Keewi's account) It wasn't awful, but it wasn't much good. The server was friendly, but very distracted chatting with her friends, so it was hard to catch her eye. The bread was a bit burned, enough to be black in spots and taste like carbon. The linguini alla vongole came in an alfredo sauce, of all things, not the white wine sauce it's supposed to have. The clams were canned, and gritty with sand. The pasta was overcooked, not al dente. The soup was oversalted. The fried calamari's breading was soft and chewy and oily, not crisp. The mussels appetizer was the best part of the meal, and it was just OK, not divine. The prices are low, so if that's all that matters to you, then there you are. And there may be better things on the menu that we didn't try. But we will not be going back to find out.
