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.

Saiya is incredible. She is always so kind, respectful, & hardworking, & she truly makes you feel welcome from the moment you walk in. Her positive attitude & care for customers really stand out.

The food is great, but Saiya's service is what makes this place special. She deserves recognition for how consistently amazing she is (& honestly, a raise!). Highly recommend coming here!

The ladies that work here are wonderful, but the guy working the line has a real attitude problem. I told the nice girl at the front that I have a fish allergy & this guy barks up'I'm not making any guarantees.' Buddy, can you at least pretend that you care about your job? This was a few weeks ago so I hope he's been canned since then, but my advice to the owner is to be careful who you hire. This guy is a liability waiting to happen.

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.
