Overall, Joe's Panini 24h comes up as a go to late night spot with a casual vibe and a wide menu, where the grilled spicy chicken panini is repeatedly noted as a standout and a common pairing of a can of Brio and a brownie is mentioned as a solid combo, while outside seating and open hours make it convenient for late bites. Reviews also reflect mixed value, with several mentioning fair prices and decent food, but others complain of shrinking portions and price increases since Covid, and some experiences report deterioration in quality after ownership changes, including underfilled or bland paninis and occasional order mistakes. The place is described as a hidden gem by some, a reliable grab after drinks by others, and a testament to Montreal style sandwiches, though a few critics say it does not rank among the city's best and a few even note slow service or indifferent staff. In sum, the reputation blends nostalgia for flavorful favorites with warnings to temper expectations on consistency and portion size.View restaurant profile
