Overview

Located towards the north end of Boulevard St-Laurent, this is the area where the first Italian immigrants settled in Montreal. The district is now crammed with shops, restaurants, social clubs, cafés and bars. There is a festival atmosphere year-round as businesses vie with one another to attract customers and the streets overflow with pedestrians. Take a stroll through Dante Park, where you will find families enjoying a day out, and card and bocce ball players focused on their game.

Little Italy in Montreal is just that : LITTLEby Yahoo | 2005-06-22 13:31:36 |

Pros: Some pretty good restaurants. The market nearby is pretty neat to see (although not an image of what it once was!). Cons: Very little italian residents left! Aside from the 5 or so Italian restaurants left...I would not consider this to be little italy anymore. There are real efforts to try and emphazise this as little Italy...but tourists should not expect much.
