Nice service. The food was absolutely delicious! Would definitely return & recommend.

Edit: I returned! Please get the burrata! It's the most delicious menu item I've tasted all month!! The service was great which proves to be consistent. I think I've found my new favorite place for Italian fare!

A friend recommended to visit this place for our Montreal visit, it didn't disappoint! Everything tasted really fresh & delicious, & the Italian sodas were so good. The burrata & Caesar salad were standouts for us.

Service was super friendly, & the food came out really quickly. We got lucky & walked in around 6 pm with no wait, but a line started forming soon after. Definitely worth checking out if you're in the area!

Great Italian. The crudo was the best. The Caesar salad was crispy & cold. So refreshing for the hot summe

I ordered the pesto tonnarelli today, & I'm not new to Italian food, but this wasn't al dente it was undercooked. When I mentioned it, I was told this is what authentic Italian pasta is like, & that what I'd had before wasn't. That said, I do appreciate that they removed the dish from our bill but defs a disappointment & the portion was tiny

Good Italian food, no fuss. The menu mixes classics with some more original dishes & there's enough variety that everyone finds something. Relaxed spot, the kind you go to with friends knowing you'll eat well & have a good time.

I love this place & it's my go to for Italian cuisine. It's a joy to eat at the bar & get to know the fun loving staff. This resto reminds me of'The Big Night' 🎥 because of the authenticity of its cuisine contrasted by an unbelievably busy place around the corner & its horrific faux Italian food … only this resto is wildly successful as well. Chef really has learned to work with what is available to stay true to Italian 🇮🇹 roots (chef is an Italian national).

The Caesar salad is delicious 😋 despite it being an invention of Hollywood… the only'fake' thing on the menu, but that doesn't detract from its desirability. Wines are very well selected but I tend to focus on the Negroni 🥃 here because it's sooo tasty 😋… but it's easy to overdo it 😵?💫😵🤣

Everything you want in a local Italian bistro - & then some.

Manu Cornuto is one of those rare spots that simply never disappoints. Every visit delivers an excellent meal, whether you're there for the dinner specials, the drinks, or just a classic Italian bistro experience done right.

The food is consistently on point - not a single bad meal across all my visits. The specials are always worth exploring, & the overall vibe is exactly what you want from a neighbourhood Italian: unpretentious, welcoming, & delicious.

This is the kind of place that becomes a regular for good reason. A true Montréal gem. 🍝🍷
