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.
LOVED the design of place!!! Such a clean, cool vibe. Very professional staff, happy to recommend a delicious Italian sandwich or salad. Did I mention how CLEAN it is? Don't try to go in the evening. Sadly, they close at 5. PS You MUST see the gorgeous design of the tiny bathroom!
Slowly fermented dough makes for a creamy & slightly chewy texture. Not many take the time to do this. Thank you Ciccio's! Your baguette was perfect in all the ways! We had the porchetta sandwich & all the layers were perfectly proportioned. Super clean space & friendly staff. As a Chef & food business owner, I highly recommend!
Had the excellent porchetta sandwich & a cappuccino. Highly recommend the sandwich! Cappuccino was good too. Beautiful atmosphere & friendly great service
Great experience at Cicco's! Friendly staff, clean restaurant & amazing food. The sandwiches are made fresh with a soft bun. Would definitely recommend!
The best sandwiches in Montreal, literally no way of being disappointed. I've tried a bunch of different things there & it's always fantastic. They also offer a large variety of coffees if you don't feel like eating. The people there are welcoming & friendly, especially Gian Paolo & Mahta, who makes the best cakes & muffins I've ever had. I simply can't recommend Ciccio's enough.
Little hole in the wall restaurants in the old port of Montreal that is a must try! Absolutely charming with its diner/Italian vibe & amazing sandwich 🥪 We went there with no expectation & had a lovely time sitting at the bar & savoring their small but very concise menu. Everything was great, we tasted 2 sandwich & the salad which both tasted fresh with a very good balance in the ingredients. The staff was lovely & friendly to everyone that came in & even if the place is tiny we didn't feel rushed in anyway to move or leave as soon as we were done (which is always a plus - A+++ attitude & customer service) Coffee was perfection & the pistachio tiramisu tasted exactly like the one I had in Malta 🇲🇹. Absolutely recommend this little gem 💎

Love this place for a quick coffee break. Their panini & coffee are really good. One thing worth noting is that they don't have a big seating area, but I personally don't mind it as i just grab what I get & eat it at work. I would definitely recommend this cozy place!
Petite sandwitchrie à l'italienne que je recommande à tout le monde ! Service amical & rapide. Le meilleur café que j'ai jamais bu. Nous avons pris le tacchino & le porchetta un vrai délice !
We stumbled upon the very positive reviews for Ciccio's when looking for a place to grab a quick lunch near our accommodations in Old Montreal. We were not disappointed. We tried the "TACCHINO" & "TONNO" & both were delicious. While the sandwiches ingredients were fantastic in their own right, the freshly baked bread really stood out. I will certainly be visiting again next time I am in Montreal. I'd recommend Ciccio's to anyone looking for a quick & delicious lunch in the area. While the online ordering system was easy to use & very efficient, upon arriving for pickup we did still have to wait in the main ordering line to pickup our sandwiches. This took about eight minutes. My one point of feedback would be to make it a bit easier for online orders to come in & quickly pickup an order when ready.
I recently had the pleasure of lunching at this fantastic Italian sandwich restaurant. The menu boasts a delightful selection of mouthwatering sandwiches, each bursting with authentic flavors. From the fresh ingredients to the perfectly baked bread, every detail is meticulously crafted. The friendly staff enhances the overall lunching experience, making it a must-visit for any sandwich enthusiast. I highly recommend trying their signature sandwiches for a true taste of Italy! The Muffuletta 🤤
We heard about this location from a few good friends. We visited 2 times in the last 2 days, we are in for a vacation from south Florida & all I can say is WOW! The food, service, atmosphere was ALL fantastic! Pistachio coffee is a game changer! Highly recommend this shop & will definitely return on every trip back!
