Grocery Store

Épicerie Alimentari Sud

May be temporarily closed

Saint-Lambert

Café Ice Cream Desserts & Sweets Sandwiches Pastries Italian

Review Summary

Épicerie Alimentari Sud is seen as a small, offbeat gem on the South Shore with a strong Italian focus, offering a solid selection of panini, sauces, cheese and pasta, plus a notable array of Italian cookies and potato chips. The sandwiches are often praised as delicious and well filled, bread is described as excellent, and cannolis are frequently highlighted as a standout, though a burrata omission in some orders and occasional stock shortages, including pizza sauce, dampen the experience for some. Service is repeatedly characterized as friendly and the store itself is valued for its authenticity, with some noting slightly high prices. Online closing times have caused frustration when the shop appears closed earlier than stated. Taken together, the place is regarded as a hidden gem rather than a typical grocery store, delivering real Italian flavor and memorable meals that bring customers back despite occasional inconsistencies.View restaurant profile
