Across numerous reviews, Ciccio's stands out for incredibly fresh Italian sandwiches, especially the muffuletta with crusty warm bread and generously layered meats and cheeses, plus standout Caprese and porchetta options. The bread, ingredients, and the homemade ciccio sauce are repeatedly praised, as are desserts like pistachio tiramisu and the rosewater cheesecake. The vibe is cozy, retro, and welcoming, a neighborhood staple with a simple menu done exceptionally well, though seating can be limited and crowds can be busy, making takeout common. Service is frequently described as friendly and attentive, quick even when busy, with some comments about occasional variability in warmth; overall it feels like a reliable, beloved sandwich spot worth visiting for a quick bite or to share with friends.
Ciccio's is all about getting back to basics-with real style. The quality of the food stands out right away. The vibe is awesome, & the staff are super chill & friendly.
You have to try the porchetta-thin slices of perfectly seasoned pork roast, fresh cheese, & their signature mayo. It's seriously delicious.

We got this food delivered to our hotel whilst visiting Montreal & couldn't be happier. The breast was crispy & tasty & all the ingredients fresh. Very very happy with this find!
Just go to this place & enjoy all the fresh ingredients. Got the muffuleta sandwich, I mean man that was fantastic. All the fresh deli & the sauce & the mozzarella, 10/10
Popped in for a quick sandwich & I must recommend the porchetta sandwich! It was so tasty & flavorful & fresh.
The crusty bread was perfect with the soft mozza & the sauce.
Service was on point & friendly & fun!
Absolutely will be back!
Best Sandwich I have had in Montreal. Olive was good but a bit pricy but this place is amazing!! We had Muffuleta & Porchetta, both were delicious. Perfect balance with the bread - all fresh ingredients in warm breads with the hint of spicy oil? Wanted to try everything but I only had one stomach. Will definitely come back!!

These sandwiches are perfect! The fresh ingredients, amazing combination of flavours, & the high quality bread! We made sure to eat here twice on our 4-day trip :)
Great service, well-made fresh food, awesome old school vibe. The flavour & ingredients are fantastic, & the ladies helping us were helpful with suggestions & offered to cut our sandwich & pre-mix the salad knowing we were taking it for a picnic. Would definitely return!
I'm kind of surprised Ciccio's doesn't have a 5 star average as I write this but I'm certain that it will only be a matter of time because this place is perfect. The bread, the fresh meats, vegetables & cheeses. Please try a dessert & stay a little while in the enjoyable atmosphere & very pleasant staff. WOW!

Wow their sandwhiches are actually worth the hype. The Muffuletta was mind blowing! Everything in the sandwhich was fresh & delicious. We'll be back next we visit Montreal.
We had lunch there. Super friendly staff & very passionate owner. The sandwiches are crisp, freshly made & most important delicious in taste with subtle accents like the anshovi mayo on the tuna sandwich. Delicious & as such worth the visit
Great Italian sandwich in Old Montreal. Very welcoming vibe - elements gave it a modern old school diner feel with a bright atmosphere. Staff were very friendly. Ordered the caprese sandwich & it was excellent. All the ingredients tasted fresh & premium. Loved the fresh mozzarella & prosciutto that paired very nice with the Pesto. The bread was also really good. It had some crunch but was soft so it was not hard to bite. Overall, everything just went so well together. Would definitely go back to try another sandwich & a drink.
I am thoroughly impressed! The quality of their ingredients is fantastic. I took the prosciutto & moza panini as well as the eggplant parmigiana. Both were fresh & perfectly made. Very reminiscent of paninis straight from Italy! The only negative thing I have to say is in regards to their pistachio tiramisu. I'm sorry but $8 for two spoonfuls is insane. I included a photo to show the comparison to a spoon. On top of that, no pistachio taste was in sight. This is my only complaint! The staff was great, the spot was clean & nicely decorated. Overall, I would recommend for a visit!
