Opening of Pacini Quartier Des Spectacles: The First Pacini Restaurant in the Heart of a Downtown Core

MONTREAL, June 17, 2019 /CNW Telbec/ - The new Pacini Quartier des spectacles restaurant officially opened its doors on June 14^th. It is the first-ever Pacini location in the downtown area of a major Canadian city, with a seating capacity of 330 people including indoor and patio areas. It is the ideal location for urban professionals and families to savour delicious Italian dishes made with love!    

A Top Destination for the Young Crowd
Located at 425 De Maisonneuve Blvd. West, in Montreal, in the LEED-certified La Capitale building, the new restaurant exuding Italian charm will attract a large clientele thanks to its prime location. Whether it be for a drink with friends or a business dinner, Pacini Quartier des spectacles can host up to 330 people over an area of 8,500 square feet, including two separate patios where guests can enjoy their meals and drinks comfortably seated in armchairs. The restaurant, representing an investment of over $1.8M, features an urban style, with a concrete finish, a long bar with a lounge section and a large glassed-in kitchen visible to clientele passing by. Hungry patrons can order online for takeout or through UberEats and have their meal delivered, a convenient option for time-pressed professionals.   

Employee Comfort a Priority
Particular attention was also given to ensuring the well-being and happiness of the 70 people who make up the new team. The new space offers them access to a spacious relaxation area and an indoor bike stand. Pacini management takes employee satisfaction to heart, which contributes to an outstanding customer experience. Employees are ready with a smile to serve clientele a wide selection of dishes from the different menus: breakfast, brunch, presto lunch, dinner, happy hour and tables d'hôtes to satisfy every appetite.

An Ongoing Evolution
Since the strategic shift taken by Pacini Restaurants Inc. at the end of 2018, many eco-friendly initiatives have been put in place prior to the restaurant's opening, including table napkins made out of fabric instead of paper as well as the use of ecological soap. Pacini Quartier des spectacles takes sustainability even further with eco-friendly washers and dryers, an energy-efficient adjustable smart range hood and on-site laundering of employee uniforms to eliminate carbon emissions from vehicle transportation.

"With a new visual identity, a new restaurant positioning centered on Italian charm, redesigned menus and a target of 200 restaurants, today we are very proud to announce the opening of our first restaurant in a major downtown core. The new Pacini Quartier des spectacles brings together all our best nutritional practices. Moreover, clientele can enjoy it all in the LEED-certified La Capitale building located only 300 metres from the Place des Festivals!" explains Nathalie Lehoux, Happy President of Pacini Restaurants Inc.

The Pacini Quartier des spectacles restaurant also actively contributes to the local community through its support of the organization ACEM Microcrédit, which works to reduce poverty and exclusion through socially responsible financing.
