Review Summary

Drogheria Fine is a beloved Montreal destination known for serving simple, affordable, and comforting gnocchi directly from a takeout window. While the menu is limited to gnocchi with tomato sauce, with options to add cheese or chili flakes, the concept is widely celebrated for its efficiency and value. Many patrons appreciate the pillowy texture of the pasta and the rich, homemade quality of the sauce, often describing it as a perfect snack for a cold day. Although opinions on the flavor profile vary, with some noting a preference for a more traditional marinara, most visitors agree that the experience is a quintessential part of the Mile End neighborhood. Be prepared for potential lineups, as the spot is popular, and ensure you have cash or a Canadian debit card on hand since they do not accept credit cards.

i really don't get the hype. the sauce is quite bad - it tastes very similar to a can of Campbell's SpaghettiOs. the place is visually charming, though.

Franchement, c'est délicieux & réconfortant quand y fait froid , surtout pour 6$, c'est vraiment pas cher.

Le 3 étoiles c'est pour la fille qui avait l'air bête & qui m'a demandé 30¢ pour une fourchette en bois supplémentaires alors que j'avais déjà payé pour 3 plats.

Elle m'a dit les baguettes c'est gratuit mais pas la fourchette, franchement.

Honestly? The gnocchi is good, it's the sauce that's pretty bland. It's too sour! There's a bit of an indecipherable aftertaste too. It tastes like cheap store bought pasta sauce unfortunately. Improved by the spice, but not by much.

I keep coming back because it's hard to beat a hearty $5 meal! It warms you right up on a cold autumn day. But it's by no means stellar.

Service is always amazing though, really nice people. & there's seating nearby which is great bc it's no food indoors

Would love to see a vegan cheese option! Also would be nice if the toppings could be sandwiched into the gnocchi, so the whole thing is spiced/cheesy & not just the top

Highly overrated. I still don't understand what's the hype about. Apart from the price, which is honestly cheap, & the nice, kind staff, the gnocchis themselves are ordinary. & the sauce is below average, too acidic & oily with no distinct taste or flavor.
