Review Summary

Ciccio's is widely celebrated as a premier destination for high-quality Italian-style sandwiches, with the Muffuletta frequently cited as a standout favorite. Visitors consistently praise the fresh, crusty bread, premium meats, and generous portions, often noting that the food feels balanced and carefully crafted. While the atmosphere is described as a cozy, retro-inspired space perfect for a casual lunch, the limited seating can make it busy, leading many to opt for takeout. Although most reviews highlight exceptionally friendly and efficient service, a few visitors mentioned occasional wait times or inconsistent communication. Overall, the experience is highly recommended for anyone exploring the area who appreciates fresh ingredients, top-tier espresso, and standout desserts like pistachio tiramisu.

I would give this place a 5 star for staff alone, but the sandwich…perfect crunch when you bite, well balanced, fresh ingredients makes an excellent sandwich. Both my wife's & mine, the muffuletta & the Frank Sinatra, get 5 stars! Great way to start our Montreal vacation.

Great sandwiches, fresh ingredients & fantastic bread. Salads are also great so clean, crisp, fresh. Staff was very kind & welcoming as well as accommodating. We've been traveling for a week so we truly appreciated the light clean food & clean restaurant & bathroom.

adorable spot in Old Montreal. The italian sandwiches are quite good though to me (tristate/NJ sub aficionado), though not unusually delicious. the standouts to me with the'The Mortazza,' a delightful breakfast sandwich & a steal at just 10CAD: fluffy egg patty + mortazza & mozzarella + vinaigrette'd tomato & red onion + a little bit of pesto. extremely good. pair with a pistaccio (made with real pistachio paste) & it's the ingredients for a beautiful morning~!! nice staff too!!

Amazingggg sandwiches! The best I have tried in the city. I got the muffuletta without eggplant & my friend got the classique. The muffuletta was our favourite as the bun was crunchy on the outside & soft on the inside topped with sesame seeds. You can definitely tell the ingredients are great quality. The meats inside gave such a great flavour & there was a bit of spiciness from the peppers & tad bit of sauce. The classique was the egg sandwich which we enjoyed too. It was topped with a soft bun & the egg was thick & soft. The workers were nice but could have been a little bit more welcoming. Overall, it was a great experience & would definitely return to try the rest of the menu or get the muffuletta again.

We were about to go on a 5 hour train ride & got ourselves two sandwiches from Ciccio's to go. Seriously - you can't do better than that, they are delicious. We've had the parmigiana & the porchetta - perfectly balanced ingredients on a nice & crispy bun. I should have gotten an extra one !
