Café Gentile opens in West Island's Dollard-des-Ormeaux

Anthony Gentile has a story about growing up Italian in Beaconsfield. His mother would pack his school lunches—meatballs, chicken cutlets—and the bags would get greasy. The smell embarrassed him enough that he'd swap his food with other kids.

Now he runs restaurants built around those same sandwiches, and his fourth location just opened in Dollard-des-Ormeaux, minutes from where he grew up.

Café Gentile's West Island location on Sources Boulevard has been packed since opening a few weeks back. It's the biggest operation Anthony's launched, but it's also the one he's wanted to open since entering the restaurant business. The other three locations—the original on Chabanel, then Westmount, then the Pizza Parlour—were steps toward this.
