Manago is a long standing West Island Italian spot with a warm, lively vibe and a wood burning oven that delivers pizza and a broad menu of pasta, veal, seafood and more. Reviews praise fresh, flavorful wood fired pizza, well prepared pastas and sauces, with many diners noting generous portions and good value. The service is often described as friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere as welcoming and family friendly, though some nights can be very busy and loud, leading to slower service or a less attentive experience. Many diners enjoy the option to dine in or take out, and celebrations or casual weeknight dinners are common reasons to visit, while a few experiences mention uneven service or dishes not hot or overly salty. Overall, Manago is seen as a dependable, authentic Italian choice on the West Island with consistent food quality and a setting that encourages memorable meals.
The service was excellent - fast, friendly, & efficient. The pizza was delicious & flavorful. I particularly enjoyed the seafood pasta, which had a delicious sauce. I would highly recommend trying the pizza & tiramisu. While the restaurant is a bit pricey, the quality of the food makes it worthwhile for a special occasion.
Date night 2 people total $139 tax & tip (18%) included.
Client depuis 2017, Le vieux Four Manago est toujours une expérience conviviale & délectable. Que ce soit pour le veau au citron, la pizza, le tartare de saumon ou la salade de betteraves tout est délicieux! L'ambiance est chaleureuse & le personnel est accueillant & courtois. Un rendez vous annuel que je loupe jamais lors de mon voyage pour rendre visite à mon fils qui vit à Montréal .

We ordered the pizza which was good. When we were seated, we were caught off guard by some of the cutlery that was dirty. That was a huge turn off & the first red flag.
2nd red flag : We were then rushed into paying for our bill when it was clear that we weren't ready to leave & enjoying our tea & coffee.
3rd red flag: when ordering a glass of wine it was a very, very small portion ( less the a quarter of the the glass).
The service I remembered from a few years back was a lot friendlier & efficient than it was last night & the food of better quality.
Food & drinks were very good, we were a group of 6 & everyone had something different & all were pleased with their selection, we had pizzas, ravioli, salad & seafood pasta. Service was fairly quick with everyone's order arriving at the same time. This is a nice place with indoor & outdoor seating.
Truly the food was a disaster.
All the pastas. Super sweet tomatoes sauce & the Bolognes has barely any meat, so it was like tomato sauce/ all pomodoro as well.
The Cesar salad, the lettuce looked like it came out the garbage bin & was served with the sauce.
The cheese pizza was finally the only thing that tasted good & was eatable.

A very nice lunch with 4 work colleagues. I would recommend for anyone looking for a good Italian meal. Many good choices including pizza made in a wood-fired oven.
Great restaurant!
Food quality is very good. Although for lunch menu it is a bit pricey & the pizza is really small to feed the hungry person.
Service is a bit poor too. Not even a glass of tap water was offered.
Hold on tightly to your plate. Why ? Let me tell you why. We have been going to Manago for many many years, & this fact tells you we enjoy it. However, last night, our experience was uniquely bad. We had booked a table of 5 for a little mother's day celebration for my mother in law & wife. We arrived on time for our 5:30 booking, walked into a busy restaurant with the usual atmosphere. We sat down, & within less than 5 mins had been informed twice by our waitress & another girl we had 2 hours before we had to leave. Ok. Why are we being told this twice so quickly ? We ordered our meals & some drinks, & we were enjoying our night. At roughly just before 6:50 (40 mins left before our 7:30 departure time), my mother in law was the last person still eating. The waitress came up to the table & my mother in law was sitting with her fork in her left hand, knife in her right hand & happily chewing on her pizza. The waitress lent over the table, picked up her plate & asked if she wanted it in a box to take home. Stunned by this, my mother in law said ok. It was not ok at all. The waitress left with her still warm pizza sitting silently on the plate & stunned looks on our faces. I am not sure that she would have grabbed my plate like that. Rude is an understatement. Talk about being rushed out the door. It ruined the evening entirely. Plenty of time before we had to even goto the departure lounge (ask for the bill) & very obviously someone (a very friendly paying customer) was still eating their food. I have never in my life experienced this, neither had the other 3 adults at the table. It is one thing to make your customer(s) aware of a time constraint, however firstly telling them twice, & then taking the plate away from a customer clearly still eating (& within the time limits) is something that would in my opinion cause some concern. If this is how we are treated as customers, then the Manago management team need to have a team-huddle to discuss'Is this really the experience our customers want to have when they come here ?'. Oh, the answer is NO. We left, never ever to return. I have all previously recommended Manago to colleagues or friends who have asked for a recommendation in the West Island, & now I personally will be going out of my way to make sure no one goes there as a result of me. Train your staff better.
