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.

Really tasty sandwiches! Good selection & they cater for dietary requirements.

The bread is crusty & soft, a little warm, fillings are super generous & taste so good. There is some seating inside but when busy expect no space. Nice atmosphere to talk in while the staff are busy around you. Good coffee & would recommend as a great place to go for a bite!

If you're in Montreal & love a truly great sandwich, Ciccios Sandwiches is an absolute gem.
Everything is made with care - from the perfectly fresh bread to the high-quality meats, cheeses, & toppings that are layered generously without overwhelming the flavors. Every bite tastes balanced, fresh, & thoughtfully crafted. You can tell they don't cut corners.
The vibe is welcoming & unpretentious, the kind of neighborhood spot you instantly want to become a regular at. Whether you're grabbing a quick lunch or bringing friends to show off one of Montreal's best sandwich spots, Ciccios never disappoints. It's simple food done exceptionally well - & that's what makes it unforgettable.

I ate here in November on a rainy day. I won't dwell on the quality of the food, which wasn't bad (although, being Italian, I have eaten better panini in my life), but on the treatment I received. My plan was to eat there & stay to study for a bit, waiting for the rain to stop. I was not allow to do. Immediately after finishing my panini, about 15 minutes after arriving, I was asked from the one who seemed to be the owner of the place, to leave, even though the place wasn't so busy & outside was still raining.
I felt uncomfortable, I recommend the place only if you want to be treated rudely!!

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.

Une magnifique découverte ! Nous n'avions pas planifié une visite au Ciccio's mais nous ne le regrettons pas. C'était délicieux, tout simplement. Nous avons partagé deux sandwichs & ils étaient fraîchement préparés, excellents, rien à redire. L'accueil fut très chaleureux, typique de Montréal selon notre expérience jusqu'à maintenant ☺? Je recommande vivement !
