What could be better than a box of pillowy soft gnocchi smothered in homemade tomato sauce? 🍅 Settle yourself onto a bench nearby & watch the neighbourhood go about its business while you eat. Delicious!

They could at least have an atm that is accessible, I literally traveled there for this stupid dish & never got it because no ATM nearby. I will not even bother to go into that part of the city again it's inconvenient & dirty.

Extrêmement simple mais bon. Pour $5, ça vaut le coût. Attention, il n'y a pas de salles, ils vendent sur la rue. Aussi si vous n'avez pas Interac & que vous êtes étrangers, il faut payer en liquide.

Cute hole in the wall place! Came here for the $5 Gnocci. Add 1.50 & you get chili flakes & Parmesan cheese.

It's the best thing I've eaten since my Grade 4 teacher's rigatoni sauce. I remember eating it as a kid, & even after all these years I still crave it & I'm glad I found this on my trip to Montreal cause it was nostalgic lol

They take cash or Canadian debit only.

I've been there a few times, but the last two visits, the gnocchis were much less good. Price remains great, but the quality is simply not what it used to be.
