Mano Cornuto is a laid back Italian restaurant. Fresh ingredients, homemade food, elegant natural wine list, unique cocktails and warm service are what to expect.
Mano Cornuto offers a lively open kitchen Italian vibe with crowd-pleasing staples like Caesar salad, burrata with pistachio, focaccia, and a range of pastas and antipasti praised for fresh ingredients and balanced flavors. Desserts such as tiramisu and pistachio cake frequently get cheers, and the wine and cocktails plus a bar or terrace scene make it a popular Montreal pick. Experiences vary, with some praising warm, attentive service while others note slower, more uneven service and occasional reservation mixups, and a few feel portions are small for the price. The space can be loud with limited seating, so reservations or bar seating is advisable, but overall the restaurant is celebrated for authentic flavors, consistent quality, and the energetic atmosphere that keeps locals and visitors coming back.
Nous y sommes allés pour l'anniversaire d'une d'amie , j'ai adoré le restaurant !
La nourriture est délicieuse , cependant les portions des pâtes étaient petite .
Vous devez absolument prendre la salade César & le Steak , wow la sauce au beurre est délicieuse, je vais certainement y retourner pour ces 2 plats !!!
Le personnel est attentionné , nous avons reçu des shooter & avons eu l'iPad afin de choisir les musiques que nous voulions écouter , merci pour cette belle attention !
Just had the Crudo di Branzino ($17) at Michelle's suggestion. Has to be one of THE most perfect appetisers I have ever had. The flavours are exceptional & soaking up the aioli, bomba puree, pine nut, lemon, olive oil & Prosecco sauce with the freshly baked focaccia was just off the charts. & no, not paid for this review. It is that good
Best Italian restaurant in the town 😍 omg the Caesar salad that they had it's a must try!!!! It's not the usual one, it's a very very delicious one, & the pasta & the sandwiches, thank me later for the recommendation!

The welcome was terrible; I felt like I was bothering them. It was very difficult to reach them by phone. Not a restaurant suitable for couples (only the bar is possible). The decor & cleanliness were very questionable. I will not come back.
Fabulous Italian food!!! Have to book one week in advance to get seats for four people. All dishes look simple, but all taste so nice -- Caesar salad was the best I ever had; pistachio burrata was wonderful with home baked bread; pasta was chewy & flavorful…
The food was incredible but the service was okay. It felt like they took a long time to flip their tables. Both the appetizer & the main took a while to get to me & it sadly took a while for me to get a drink. My waitress was also a bartender so I can empathize with how busy she was & how tough it may have been to check in on me. I noticed how the lineup to get inside was super long so i just decided to ask for my food to be packed up & ordered my dessert to go. Despite all of that, I had a decent time & I would definitely come back - just not on a busy night.

First visit (October 2025) - The pistachio burrata is really something extraordinary, would 100% order again. For the main I had the beef ceviche which seemed slightly too salty for my taste. For dessert, once again the pistachio coffee cake was very delicious.
Second visit (March 2026) - The pistachio burrata is still amazing, tiramisu tastes great + service also very good. Had to reduce to 3 stars because their payment terminal suggested tip amounts based on the total including taxes instead of the pre-tax subtotal. This is not legal in Quebec as of May 2025 under Bill 72.
Probably the best Caesar salad in Montreal.
The pesto dish was amazing & the food amazing.
The vibes are great, the staff seemed to really enjoy what they were doing
Would definitely come back just for the salad
Had a great casual lunch. Pasta is cooked perfectly. Have the burrata, it's the best I've ever had. Enjoyed a boozy lunch & ate half the menu. We are from out of town & will be making this a regular lunch spot when in the city. Looking forward to summer seating!
Daniel & the Guy server with the Grey Obey shirt were really nice & welcoming . When it was time for dessert & I wanted amaro they took the time to show me all the amaros they had & recommended me some. Overall my girlfriend & I had an amazing night with amazing food. FORZA ROMA
