Discovering an especially fine restaurant where the food is truly extraordinary, the atmosphere is entirely unique, and the attentive service is under the personal supervision of its co-owners is reason enough to let everyone know about a place they absolutely must discover. - West Island Surburban
"This was our third or fourth visit to Mundo. We really like that it is close to our home in the West Island, yet feels more like a downtown restaurant. Up until this last visit our experience has always been very positive. Perhaps it can be attributed to younger, less experienced wait-staff this time, but we felt very rushed. At 7:45, while one of our party was finishing her meal, our plates were cleared whether empty or not while a waiter hovered waiting to take the last plate. When we mentioned to the waiter that we were feeling quite rushed, he had the audacity to tell us that it WAS a Saturday night rather than apologize for this behavior. We are not inclined to want to go back anytime soon - we left to have dessert elsewhere."

"I thought the service at Mundo Trattoria was outstanding, and really made the meal for me and my friend. The waiters were as charming as they were helpful they patiently explained the specials, and even entered the wifi code for me into my phone. The food was good. My mango salad had nice flavour but was a little wilted. The osso bucco serving was very generous and the flavour and sauce seasoning were spot on. I have traveled and eaten throughout Italy, and it was nice to find such a good Italian meal in the West Island."

"The food was amazing but we found the service to be extremely slow. Two tables that came in after us were served their main courses and were on dessert before we were served our main courses."

"My wife and I have been there many times alone and with other couples...& we often suggest it to friends that want a fine restaurant to visit....
Vito (the owner and chief chef) is charming and him and his staff are great people to spend an evening with....Rest assured that with him or his mom or any of his cooks in the kitchen, the meal experience will be great from start to finish...
The "Table D'Hote" menu (which changes weekly), offers a fine selection with entrees to die for, my favorite being the Mussels in Sambuca sauce.... This entree would be the normal size meal in another restaurant, but nowhere has it been better tas..."

"It was our second dining experience at Mundo. We did not enjoy it as much as the first time. Only because it was on Valentine's day and the restaurant was full. Like any other restaurent you go too, especially on weekends od special occations, the service and quality of food is just not the same when a restaurent is completely booked. It is unfortunate but understandable that is why we would dine at Mundo's again."

"Upon reserving it was NOT made clear that the reg menu was NOT avail. I was really looking forward to specific items on the menu. That being said the fixed menu items were alright. That being said,what a great appetizer spread they offered, calling it Mama's favourites it was impressive. The dessert were also delicious. I insisted that at least my young daughters have a pasta meals each & they accommodated us for that. I had the lamb which was good but not on a bed of mashed potatoes another side would have worked better, my wife modified the pasta dish offered with another sauce & it was great. I was a little surprised/disappointed that no special offering was made for the ladies, like a Rose, maybe next year !"

"Great west island eatery with lots of energy (stay away if you are looking for a quiet meal with your lover or a meal and conversation!). Manager made us feel special and genuinely wanted us to enjoy our visit, which we did! Oh ya, the food was fantastic, especially Mama's Special of the night. Looking forward to going back!"
