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.
New review!!! Wow, this place has impressed me with their improvements, proper sized tiramisu! The sandwiches have improved drastically! Better than Bossa easily Love it! Old review: Do not order the tiramisu, it comes in a tiny little Dixie cup & is at most the size for a child. Sandwich is good but nothing to rave about, too much mayo. Nothing compared to places like Bossa or Mano Figa. Cool looking place though, very nice atmosphere. They could easily improve by upgrading their sandwiches a bit. Place has potential.
No the sandwiches are not cheap but they are authentic & beyond delicious. Staff is adorable & efficient. Great atmosphere & decor. I love the pantry items. You will not regret eating here
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!
Un endroit accueillant, malgré le fait qu'il n'y ai pas beaucoup de place à l'intérieur nous sommes toujours bien reçu & mangeons des produits frais pour un prix très On accessible dans le quartier du vieux port

Had a breakfast sandwich here & a pistaccino. Loved the pistaccino, although I wish the pistacchio flavor is more pronounced - looks like they coat the cup with pistacchio spread & then pour the capuccino. The breakfast sandwich was ok - nothing to write home about, but the salad in it gave it lots of flavor.
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.
I'm working nearby. Me & my colleagues were big fan of Tacchino Sandwich & were coming at least once or twice a week. But they recently increased their prices.. Sandwiches are very good, but not that big for that price (~20$+ / sandwich, without drink) 5 stars for the food, 1 star for the price increase, not going anymore
If this isn't the best sandwhich place downtown Montreal, then I refuse to eat sandwhiches the rest of my life. A must try for all & don't forget to get the tiramisu as well, thank me later.
I should've taken a picture but I ate it so fast, this sandwich is BY FAR the best I've ever had & the bread is so delicious. I always want a sweet treat so I ordered a tiramisu & it was perfect just the perfect consistency of smoothness & sweetness. 10/10
