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.
Omg. The sandwiches were amazing but the pistachio tiramisu was seriously the best tiramisu I've ever had. Staff was super friendly. Overall fantastic experience.
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!!

Neat little cafe with a somewhat retro-Italian atmosphere. The sandwiches are their prime offering for food. Pricy but not unexpected given the area. The quality definitely hit. Service was also pleasing, I appreciated that the girl asked how I liked the food afterwards.
Un vero panino italiano! I was passing by & got caught by the cozy & charming place to only ecounter a great sandwich for breakfast & excellent coffee, the team at Ciccio's is very warming, not to mention the incredible taste & quality of the food, the muffuletta sandwich is something you should definitely try if you want to be transported to Italy.

The sandwiches & desserts are fantastic. Pistachio cappuccino & tiramisu are freaking delicious. They even have dog treats to grab in the way out. Friendly staff & beautiful atmosphere & decor. Love the orange set-up - super cute place. A must try in the old port. Prices very reasonable.
Dec2024 Located within the small alleys of the Old Town fringe & following the culinary love of Montreal smoked meats is this small deli atyle sandwich shop with a hip & bright persona. The sandwiches are a wonderful set of carefully crafted combinations of meats, relishes, sauces & toppings wrapped in a crusty & crisp envelope of bread. Arguably the best sandwich I have had in our brief visit. The staff are young, informative & very helpful to recommend. The place is virbrant, clean & feels welcoming. Only drawback are the limited seating options & small space, but then again this is the suitable scale of this charming place. Ideal for short meals & small groups only.
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 :)

Cool location to grab a panini in the old port! Prices are what you would expect to pay for a sandwich in that location. Quality panini, would definitely go back! Love the vibe of the place as well. We had the muffuletta & porchetta (pictured). Muffuletta was my favourite but they are both very good.
