Opened just last year, La Panzeria has already built quite a fan-base here in Montreal.

The family-run bistro is known for homemade Italian recipes, like pasta, panzerotti and focaccia, making La Panzeria an authentic corner of Puglia in Montreal.

Currently, the menu is available for pick-up only. 

The bistro is open from Wednesday to Saturday from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.

And once the red zone is lifted, you can hang out in the cozy spot and feel like you're away in Puglia.

Address: 4084, rue Saint-Denis, Montreal, QC
