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.

The only good thing about it was the cheap price - $5. We had the spicy one, & it was honestly pretty bad, putting just chilly flakes, is not enough to make a tasty spicy sauce.

I wanted to love it so much!!!...but the sauce smelled better then it tasted...I mean it's ok but definitely overrated. Food is cheap & it's at a good price but the sauce is too liquid for me. I prefer my sauce thicker. & also, the cheese is super disappointing...I was expecting fresh mozzarella or fresh cheese on top but it was very ordinary parmesan. & not the best kind either... Glad I've tried it but not going back...

Meilleurs gnocchis servis dans une belle petite boîte pour manger bien assis sur le trottoir. À 5,00$ cela fait un repas tellement savoureux! Vous avez même l'option d'acheter des litres de gnocchis dans leur sauce pour réchauffer à la maison! Un MUST à découvrir sur la rue Fairmount!

Sauce légendaire en vente en pots. Il est possible d'y trouver un carton de gnocchis avec leur célèbre sauce pour 5$. Nul besoin de dire qu'une visite s'impose lorsque nous sommes dans le quartier. À noter qu'il n'y a aucune place assise, il s'agit d'un comptoir. Le service y est rapide.

Great idea & service. Extra cheese & pepper please! Gnocchi was a bit overcooked, but for $6CAD, I won't complain!
