Review Summary

Drogheria Fine is widely celebrated as a quintessential Montreal staple, offering a unique and authentic street food experience centered on fresh, pillowy gnocchi served with a signature tomato sauce. While opinions on the sauce's flavor profile vary, with some diners finding it incredibly comforting and others noting it as overly acidic or simple, the overall consensus highlights the exceptional value and generous portion sizes for the price. The minimalist, quick-service takeout window frequently draws lines, yet the efficient staff and fast turnover make it a convenient stop for locals and tourists alike. Visitors should be prepared for a cash or Canadian debit-only policy and limited seating options, though the cozy neighborhood vibe and proximity to other local gems make it a highly recommended experience for those seeking a hearty, affordable, and warm bite.

There was a long queue but it went relatively fast (about 25 mins) & was worth the wait. Tasty gnocchi & big portions for what you pay! While waiting you can grab a bagel from the shop next door.

Drogheria Fine's gnocchi are soft, flavorful, & covered in a tasty Calabrese tomato sauce with parmesan on top. The mix of spice & cheesy makes every bite amazing. Simple, quick, & delicious - perfect street food! Special mention to the chopsticks that helped me very well

Can we have the 5$ gnocchi?... Server: Yes that will be 6$ 🥲 The wait time was long & the portions are not worth very much more than 5$. 30¢ for a fork.

Glad to support small businesses. Interesting take on gnocchi. First time I've ever seen Italian served in a Chinese fast food container with chop sticks. Excellent flavor in the sauce & cheese. Excellent value also.

Actually I went to the street to try ice cream & there was a long line for gnocchi. Smell was so good & the line made me to try it. The sauce was good & extra cheese & pepper flakes made it even better. But I didn't like the texture. It was too soggy. It was fun to try gnocchi in a Chinese takeout box with chopsticks. Gnocchi was very tiny so folk is much easier to grab it.
