Not impressed! I saw many people enjoying their portions, so I had high expectations. The actual gnocchi was terrible. The sauce was also disappointing & the cheese was like saw dust. I will not go back.

The gnocchi was good! Very basic on the flavours though. Just literally tastes like basic tomato sauce & chewy gnocchi. But considering the price, I'd visit again! Would just bring my own garlic powder….

Absolutely the most amazing gnocchi of my life. Please don't miss this. The no cheese one is vegan.

Gnocchi were good but the sauce is not. My wife had the perfect description, saying it tastes like Chef Boyardee sauce.
Very inexpensive, so worth trying but not something I'd go back for.

Pour 5$ repartez avec votre petit baluchon, rempli de gnocchis avec une bonne sauce tomate. C'est assez copieux pour le prix, & on a plus faim une fois fini. Seul regret, le goût est un peu monotone… Si vous prenez sans fromage. Ça mériterait des petits bouts de jambon dans la sauce, mais peut-être n'est-ce pas traditionnel par rapport à la volonté de cette boutique de plats à emporter. Expérience, authentique, & plutôt sympa, je recommande.
