Reviews portray Ciccio's as a standout Italian sandwich spot in Montreal, with bread and ingredients highlighted for quality and flavor, especially the muffuletta, porchetta, caprese, and prosciutto sandwiches. The bread is consistently praised for crisp crust and soft interior, the meats and cheeses feel fresh, and the signature ciccio sauce adds a creamy tang. The vibe is retro yet cozy, with limited seating and a preference for takeout, while the service is often warm and attentive but occasionally could be more welcoming or consistent. Some criticism exists over price versus portion size and occasional menu stability with items like muffuletta sometimes selling out; nonetheless the overall experience is described as enjoyable and memorable, making it a must visit for Italian sandwiches in Old Montreal with many reviewers planning return trips to try more items and desserts like pistachio tiramisu and espresso drinks.
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 !
Dommage qu'on n'écoute pas demande spéciale des clients. Puisque j'ai un bébé estomac ce sandwich est beaucoup trop gros. J'ai
Demandé demi sandwich avec les mêmes protéines à l'intérieur que je veux payer au plein prix. Demande catégoriquement refusée. J'ai du défaire mon sandwich & faire un dégât au comptoir. Je suis guide touristique & suis toujours à la recherche de petits commerces à encourager. C'est dommage les ingrédients étaient frais & bons.
Me & my grandma were visiting Montreal for the day when we came to Ciccos for lunch, & it was very good. I got a sandwich with prosciutto, mozzarella, & tomatos, & my grandma can't remember what she got & both were 10/10! These sanwiches are a bit more expensive but you can tell the bread & ingredients are fresh & high quality! I saw them cut the prosciutto with a slicer. Not speaking French was not a problem & it's a cute & aesthetically pleasing inside. The seating area outside is also nice. Overall it was a nice experience & I'd come back for sure!

Excellent sandwich! Les ingrédients sont frais, portion généreuse & bon service. L'endroit est plutôt petit donc je recommande de le prendre pour apportez & aller le manger sur le bord de l'eau.
Magnifique petit resto & surtout excellente sandwich italienne avec ingrédients de qualités. Le staff est super gentil & accueillant.
nouvelle adresse sur McGill & tout aussi bon (muffuletta) & la créma di café est une merveille en bouche!
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!

J'y suis allée deux fois, & chaque fois, c'était tout aussi délicieux😋
Les ingrédients étaient frais & pleins de saveur!
C'est vite devenu l'un de mes endroits préférés pour manger un sandwich à mtl:))
Definitely coming back!🫶🏼
Ordered on uber & it was very good. You can tell they use high quality ingredients & the bread is very great it has a hard crust & soft interior . Only thing I can say is the sauce is a little light handed.
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
Ciccio's was the first place we went after arriving in Montreal. It was perfect! Simple but delicious sandwiches made with quality ingredients. The owner was very friendly & helpful. We 100% recommend you go there!

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!
