Café Milano in St-Leonard is a popular Italian bistro with café. The specialties are sandwiches (Salcicia/ Steak/Chicken), submarines, soups and salads. Open late for the late night diners and offers what many say is "the best Italian espresso".
Reviews describe Café Milano as a legendary and historic spot with an old school vibe and a reputation for great Italian sandwiches, cannolis, and espresso, plus strong value and a welcoming atmosphere that invites conversations and late night visits. The coffee and desserts are frequently praised, with several describing the café as a reliable place to meet up or grab a bite, and the sandwiches and cannolis often highlighted as standout items. The ambiance and a large terrace are noted positives, though some reviewers warn that the interior can be noisy or dim and that cleanliness needs attention, with one or two saying the place isn’t as fresh as in the past. Service is described as friendly and prompt at times, but other comments point to inconsistent experiences, long waits, or miscommunications during busy periods. Parking is occasionally mentioned as a challenge, but the overall sentiment remains affectionate, presenting Café Milano as a classic, comforting Italian cafe that draws visitors for coffee, paninis, and sweets despite the caveats.
L'ambiance chaleureuse & conviviale est parfaite pour une pause-café ou un repas rapide. Leurs cafés sont excellents, toujours bien préparés. Mention spéciale aux pâtisseries italiennes, surtout les cannolis, qui sont à tomber! Le personnel est accueillant & le service rapide. Un vrai plaisir à chaque visite.
Accoglienza calorosissima come la si può trovare solo in posti italiani. Veramente tanta tanta cortesia e gentilezza. Il cibo è buonissimo, lai sandwich alle insalate e ai dessert. Sia i proprietari che il personale sono davvero amichevoli e sanno sempre mettere a proprio agio i clienti. Consigliatissimo. A wonderfully warm welcome, the kind you can only find in Italian places. So much courtesy & kindness. The food is excellent, from sandwiches to salads & desserts. Both the owners & the staff are truly friendly & always make customers feel at ease. Highly recommended.

Price: 12$ for small ice coffee & 2 very delicious & good portion cannolis. I would go back just for cannolis. They call your name like in Starbucks. Menu attached august 2024

I have eaten here in the past & so the sausage sandwich wasn't as good. It felt they had reheated rhe sausage. It was too dry. In fact the order came so fast it seemed bizarre to me that they had cooked it that fast. The larger table with about 10 sitting near us was so loud. It felt like it was a party of 30. It doesn't make talking with people at your table easy. The tables aren't cleaned so quickly either. I think the staff can do better. They are friendly & nice but they need to get to the table cleaning a bit faster.
