This place serves only Gnocci, sauce + cheese or chilli flakes.
HOWEVER, THE DISH IS YUMM!

The place is like a'hole in the wall'. There is NO'inside' seating.
If you wish to eat at the place, there are a couple benches on the sidewalk to & eat.
But the Gnocci is good!

The Gnocci is served in a' Chinese take-out' style container. The only difference between'take away' &'dine-in', is the closed lid on the containers.
But the Gnocci is so good!

They sell the sauce in bottles. This can be used for other types of pasta at home.

Did I mention that Gnocci was so good? Yes it was!

For the taste & quantity, I beleive, the Gnocci is a great value for the money.
The Gnocci was so good!

I don't understand the hype of this place. We took gnocchi with cheese for around 6$ & the sauce was really sour. It was hard to finish. The gnocchi were ok.

The pasta is good, & the portion is large for $5 in this economy… but if you've had nonna's pasta before, well of course this does not compare. Keep that in mind other than that it's good :)

We were brought here as part of a food tour on the Montreal Mile End. The gnocchi + tomato sauce was really delicious & for the price nothing can be beat!

We wouldn't have heard about this place had it not been for our tour guide Eric so we were glad to have it as a stop on the tour. There was a large lineup outside (there is no seating inside) but it seemed to be moving quickly.

They don't accept credit - cash or Interac only!

If you're just looking for a meal to fill you up for $5, then this is a great option. However, I was underwhelmed by the taste, & the sauce felt a bit off for my personal tastes. It was a bit too sour. But service was quick & efficient.
