Le Vieux Four Manago earns praise for a welcoming atmosphere and notable Italian dishes, with wood-fired pizza and well-liked pastas frequently highlighted; yet reviews are mixed on value and consistency, as some pizzas arrive with insufficient sauce or lacking the wood-fired flavor while others enjoy a crisp crust and satisfying toppings. The renovations improved the decor but made the room louder and busier, turning some visits into a noisy, cafeteria-like experience despite the friendly service. Service is often described as attentive and genuine, with many staff members delivering warm, professional hospitality, though a few encounters report longer waits or uneven attention during peak times. Prices are often considered high for the portion sizes and the overall experience, leading some guests to feel the value is uneven. Overall, the restaurant remains a popular choice for many who praise the atmosphere, the generous portions when working well, and the consistency of certain dishes, while others warn that pizza quality and noise can detract from the meal.
We went for dinner on Friday night. Restaurants was full of people. Street was empty & the whole town people seem to be in the restaurant. We had to wait about 6 minutes to get a table. Our server was smiley girl who was very pleasant. It made our evening out more fun. We had Veal Parmesan & Hawaiian pizza. For dessert we had tiramisu & cappuccino. Everything was delicious. One of my favorite restaurant in St. SAUVEUR.
Went dozen of times, 2 times this weekend already! Very good place, colorful & friendly. The food is good, the service is excellent, the prices aren't for any budget . We'll be back!

Le repas était délicieux ! L'ambiance était très agréable. C'est Christopher qui nous a servis. Il est beau, très très gentil & patient. Il a un sourire magnifique.
Repas réconfortant. Prix raisonable. Endroit avec beaucoup de bruit. Un serveur agé pas tres sympatique. Si je decide de revenir je demande un autre serveur...
This place was amazing. Fun vibe without being too noisy or busy. Extensive wine list serviceable beer selection. Staff very friendly & attentive without being intrusive.
Our group of four had
Veal Cannelloni
Linguine Carbonara
Fettucini with rose sauce
& a wood-fired Margherita Pizza
Our whole group could not stop raving & sharing our meals.
Cela faisait longtemps que je voulais essayer ce restaurant, mais je trouvais les prix vraiment élevés. Cette fois, j'ai décidé de lui donner une chance. Malheureusement, j'ai été très déçue.
La pizza coûtait presque 30 $, mais elle était presque vide, avec très peu de garniture & même pas assez de fromage. Pour ce prix, on s'attend vraiment à beaucoup mieux.
On a aussi l'impression que ce sont surtout des adolescents qui travaillent là pendant que les clients paient des prix très élevés, pas de probleme. Mais tremble pas les mains avec les ingredients on paye pour .....ce qui est assez frustrant.
Par contre, je dois dire que la jeune fille qui nous a servis était très gentille & polie. Le service de sa part était très bien.
Jamais encore
The waiter was so rude , so impolite . Doesnt respond .
Calamar was very oily , pizza was raw with sauce dripping .
Pasta needed cheese , we waited 15min to get parmesan .
Wasnt worth the trip at all

Underwhelming pizza. I think the pizzaiolo forgot to add some sauce in my pizza. Tasted more like cheese sticks. Was expecting a bit more for a 30$ pizza especially with the high end decor. Send 2-3 years naples & forget
Tried to contact the restaurant multiple times during the working hours by the phone, no reply'the customer you've dialed is currently unavailable'. The only way to make a reservation is by the phone…
Nous avons commandé la pizza 4 fromages. Nous l'avons trouvée bonne, la pâte est mince comme on l'aime. Le tiramisu n'est pas mal non plus bien qu'un peu plus de biscuit serait apprécié compte tenu de la quantité de crème . Le cadre est très sympa, on se sent bien dans le restaurant.
Comme plusieurs personnes, nous avons trouvé les prix un peu cher quand même pour « juste » une pizza.

This WAS our family go-to restaurant over the past 6 years. With the new renovations the majority of space is now loud, jammed with tables, & has a vibe of a cafeteria. Understanding it was a busy night /hour, we asked for another table other than the one right beside the entrance. Apparently none at the time were free, but when new tables opened up right after we were seated, the hostess was very reluctant & unaccommodating to find us another table even though she knew we weren't happy with our location. We had to insist so we could enjoy our meal. Even then, there was a table off to the windows that was free & she wouldn't move us. Odd, considering there are no reservations at this spot; disappointing as it was hard to enjoy our meal. Waited a long time for our meal. I wish we had had the male waiter that was working. Every time we're there, he has a smile on his face & has great energy.
Nous avons commandé deux pizzas & sommes allés les chercher 20 minutes plus tard, tel que demandé. Les deux pizzas étaient froides, pas fraîches du tout. J'ai appelé pour faire état de la situation : on m'a simplement dit qu'on allait faire le suivi en cuisine. Aucune offre pour pallier le problème (remboursement partiel ou autre). Plus jamais.
Great service & attention,
Very loud venue.
The Pizza was a basic just like frozen Pizza made in the oven at Home .
It had no wood taste at all, Although made in a wood burning stove. No Thickness no real crust & was disappointing..
I know people say they love it here… i just dont get why
Super noisy , they should have sound dampening panels for echo of voices
The Fettucini with Gigi Sauce & Prosciutto was delicious as a savior , because we split it in 2 with the Pizza. & finally the Chocolate cake to me was good & old fashion!
For the Wine we had a Carpineto Chianti Classico 23$ at the SAQ & paid 53$
Insane for a restaurant that serves this quality pizza. Alternative was le Vinier wine in a box for 33$ ( no way) so the Total bill
1 Pizza, 1 Pasta , 1 cake, 1 bottle wine,
$128 + 15% tip = 19$ Totql $147.00
Thank God service was #1 Excellent
Better value at Pizza 900 or Pizza Lupi worth the drive….

Ce resto ne devrait offrir que des pizzas. Les pâtes Romanoff étaient insipides & le poulet grillé, sec sans aucun goût. Le tout était servi dans une assiette ovale de type « club sandwich » avec rien que du fromage parmesan. La serveuse, bien que très aimable, ne savait pas la différence entre le cépage des vins & la maison qui les produit… Bref, un souvenir à oublier.
Rosy c' une machine fait 30 minutes je la regarde courir partout sortir des drinks une vrai machine je pense annuler la commande doordash pi devenir client xD
