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.

Meilleur rapport qualité prix !!
Super adresse pour les petits budgets, les gnocchis sont succulentes. Un supplément burrata serait excellent .....
Paiement par carte de débit canadienne ou cash :)

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!

I saw a video about this place when researching my trip to Montreal. I am so thankful because this gnocchi was amazing!
A hole in the wall operation with one person serving out of three pots with the good stuff, it is a simple but effective business model with a high turn over.
I had mine with cheese & chili with the extra kick enhancing the flavour!
I highly recommend.

Rapport qualité prix au top !
Le service est rapide malgré la file d'attente qui peut être longue.
Il est possible d'acheter de la sauce tomate aussi.
À ne pas rater !!!

3.5 would be more accurate. You can't beat the portion & the price, & the sauce is good too - but the gnocchi itself is average at best.

The best value & experience for $5 in Montreal! Take out gnocchi in a tomato sauce! Great experience & taste!appreciated the chat with the owner who was very proud to be able to still offer this price to his clients when food costs as everybody knows have gone up in this day & age!
He could certainly charge $8 & still have a line up but his commitment to keeping it at $5 certainly has my support & it will always
be my list of places to visit in Montreal!
Authentic Italian take out experience!

The line moves quickly & all part of the experience!

Planned the trip for the bagel next door, attracted by the smell from here. Now my family only purchase tomato sauce from their online store. BTW we live in New York City :) so happy they ship to the States too.

Le personnel était très sympathique malgré la longue queue, mais la nourriture n'était malheureusement pas au niveau. Les gnocchis n'étaient pas cuits, & la sauce dans laquelle ils baignent vous sature la bouche après trois cuillères.

Dans aucun cas cela ne valait d'attendre aussi longtemps dans la queue.
