Reviews consistently rate Iconoglace as a standout Montreal ice cream spot with a strong emphasis on vegan options, big generous portions, and creative, original flavors that change weekly.

Service is frequently described as fast and friendly, even during busy lines, though a few reviews note occasional waits and pricing that can be higher than average. The atmosphere is described as cute and lively, with a small interior and a back terrace, and the staff are commended for being helpful with non French speakers.

Overall, Café Vito is described as a warm, vibrant neighborhood café with superb espresso and a delicious array of pastries, cookies, cannoli and other Italian snacks, plus tasty on site sandwiches and panini; the atmosphere with a welcoming terrace reminds many guests of Italy and makes it easy to linger with friends or solo; staff are consistently praised for friendliness and attentiveness, and the place is often called the best espresso in town and a staple in the neighborhood. A few notes balance the praise: some visitors note changes to the pistachio cannoli filling compared to earlier versions, and one review mentions an incident where a dish included meat despite a request to omit it; despite these, the overall impression is of high quality, fair prices and a lively, sociable scene that draws regulars and newcomers alike.View restaurant profile
