Review Summary

Drogheria Fine is a small, cash or debit only takeout counter with no indoor seating that serves gnocchi in a windowed, street-food style setting, often enjoyed with the option of cheese or spicy toppings and a rich tomato sauce; reviews describe the gnocchi as pillowy and comforting and the portions generous for the price, while the sauce can range from deeply flavorful to overly sour or bland depending on the batch, with some gnocchi textures being chewy or overcooked. The experience is quick, casual, and distinctly neighborhood, aided by friendly staff and a bustling takeout line that moves, and the packaging— a simple to-go box with optional jar sauce to take home—adds to the charm. Many praise the affordability and the nostalgia of a place that started as a sauce shop before the gnocchi became iconic, while a few note that the sauce is not always to their taste and some batches feel more like a can than homemade. Overall, it’s considered a must-try for gnocchi lovers seeking a hard-to-beat value and a quintessential Montréal moment, even if every visit doesn’t hit the same high note.

Best, fastest & cheapest gnocchi I've ever had, I hasn't even taken my card out to order & I had the gnocchi in my hand already, portions is rly good & it's so tasty

The only good thing about it was the cheap price - $5. We had the spicy one, & it was honestly pretty bad, putting just chilly flakes, is not enough to make a tasty spicy sauce.

Stopped in on a food tour of Montreal. The sauce was tasty. The gnocchi was a bit heavy but paired with the sauce. If you are in the need of a quick hearty lunch it's a good option.

Portion is huge & very tasty for the price. The cost cutting measures are very clear though. 5 cents for utensils other than chopsticks, gnocchi is just round balls, etc. No complaints though & the service is good. Would highly recommend spending the extra money on chili flakes.

A great concept, who doesn't love gnocchi - to go! The gnocchi was tasty. They also sell their tomato sauce & lasagna

I have no idea what gnocchi should taste like, these ones were fresh, hot & tasty. Like that you eat it on the street. Worth the hype!
