First time I visited, I got two of the regular servings. Granted I didn't have much to eat all day & haven't had much gnocchi in my life, but this stuff hit! Went back a few days later for a cheese & spice. Spice was nice, but the cheese was just a scoop of basic parmesan. Neither was really worth the upcharge. Didn't have CAD or a local debit card but she took USD at a 1:1 rate which was fine by me. Sidewalk seating but the sherbert place next door can get busy & dominate the seating.
Not impressed! I saw many people enjoying their portions, so I had high expectations. The actual gnocchi was terrible. The sauce was also disappointing & the cheese was like saw dust. I will not go back.
One of the best gnocchi I've ever tried! I had the extra cheese gnocchi with a spices -it was served super hot, perfectly cheesy, & had just the right amount of spice. Everything tasted fresh, & there were great vegetarian options available. The shop is small & very cute, with a cozy atmosphere. I would 100% recommend this place to anyone looking for fresh, delicious gnocchi
A window in a wall, & some of the best gnocchi I've ever eaten.
Drogheria Fine is not a restaurant in any conventional sense. It's a takeaway window wedged between other businesses in a busy part of town, easy to miss if you're not paying attention. I walked by it once & it caught me immediately, because I love pasta & I have a particular weakness for gnocchi.
The menu is almost aggressively simple. Gnocchi with sauce, or gnocchi with sauce & cheese for a dollar fifty more. That's the whole operation, & that restraint is exactly the point. They do one thing & they do it flawlessly. My friends went next door for bagels. I went here instead & made the right call.
I ordered the gnocchi with sauce & parmesan, & it landed in my hands in a takeaway box within seconds. Hot, fresh, homemade sauce, clearly made by people who have been making it their entire lives. Rustic, old-school, unapologetically Italian. I stood on the street & ate it there, & it was one of the most satisfying meals of the trip.
I still think about it. The concept, the simplicity, the flavor, all of it lands. I'd go back tomorrow.
Good gnocchi with a very generous portion. I tried it with extra cheese & spicy sauce-the quality was good, but the spicy version wasn't really for me.
Still, if you're a gnocchi lover & want a filling meal, this is a solid option.
Came here at opening & they were late to open. I got the gnocchi with cheese & the sauce is bland & salty. Disappointed that the cheese is only on the top & tasted like Kraft Parm. However the portion is quite big & good value.
'cheese' is a kraft parmesan cheese to go on top of theses gummy balls called' gnocchis' in what they say is a tomatoe sauce nonna's style ! I had to throw them away after 2 bites & God knows how I love food & Italian food especially. But aside a cute little corner shop that seems so appealing for real Italian snacks. What they sold is simply in disgusting. A perfect tourist trap.
