Review Summary

Ciccio's is widely celebrated as a premier destination for high-quality Italian-style sandwiches in Montreal, frequently praised for using exceptionally fresh, crusty bread and generous, premium ingredients. Guests consistently highlight the Muffuletta, Porchetta, and Caprese as standout options, often pairing their meals with smooth coffee and popular desserts like pistachio tiramisu. While the atmosphere is frequently described as cozy, retro, and welcoming, the physical space is quite small with limited seating, leading many to opt for takeout. Although some reviewers find the price point a bit high or note occasional inconsistencies in service or preparation, the majority of visitors find the staff to be friendly and the overall experience to be a memorable, top-tier culinary staple worth visiting.

Ciccio's is a great little spot for coffee & sandwiches. The coffee is smooth & well-made, & the sandwich options are fresh, generous, & perfect for a quick lunch (lots of variety, from classic deli-style to more creative combos). Service is friendly & fast, & the vibe is casual & welcoming-easy to pop in & leave happy. Definitely a reliable go-to when you want a solid coffee + sandwich combo.

Really tasty sandwiches! Good selection & they cater for dietary requirements.

The bread is crusty & soft, a little warm, fillings are super generous & taste so good. There is some seating inside but when busy expect no space. Nice atmosphere to talk in while the staff are busy around you. Good coffee & would recommend as a great place to go for a bite!

To the Ciccio's owners:
Absolutely amazing addition to Montreal. As a major experienced foodie, your bread is fresh, your sandwiches are tasty, your meat is freshly cut, & your drink options are awesome, you also make some very good coffee & hot chocolate! Nic at the downtown location is awesome. Sandwiches are always on par no matter the location. Glad you opened this & I hope you can keep the quality with time (seems to be a very hard & rare thing restaurants in Montreal can do).

My constructive criticism: some of your staff lack experience in the way they communicate or handle customers, which might impact your reputation. Maybe have someone that can lead & train them how to operate in this type of restaurant properly.
