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.
I'd heard from a friend that he has a friend who is Italian & family hails from there. Mano Cornuto is the only place that they will take their family. & there's a reason why. Because it's just so damn good. I studied in Italy for a brief period, & learned that you don't have to spend a lot of money to eat really well. I worked in Italy for a longer period, & learned that a lot of money got you some pretty exceptional food. Mano Cornuto drives right up the middle. It's pretty exceptional food for not a lot of money. It's a pretty casual place, big line ups, & everything is excellent. Some of the best focaccia sandwiches I've ever had. Interesting specials on pastas with the regulars always good. Good drinks, nice patio in warmer weather. Best thing ever is that it's an eight minute walk from where I live. Frankly, I think, deep down inside, it was one of the deciding factors in locating our place. Oh, & the tiramisu (pull my heart in English) absolutely yanks on your heart.
today 1 h pm Wow l'accueil!!!! Un sourire de cette belle jeune fille serai apprécié comme première approche de la clientèle a l'entrée! Cuisine exquise mais 14$ pour un petit verre de vin blanc pour diner, un peu excessif! Je ne vais plus venir dans le resto, j'aime être bien accueillis & elle ne semble pas changer son attitude, elle reste fidèle a elle même, la même depuis ma dernière visite chez vous!
Had an amazing experience, from the food to the top quality service... everything was just perfect! The price you pay for the quality of the food es really fair too!
A little feedback that can be taken in consideration to avoid losing clients!! My husband & I went there for dinner & we had a bad experience!!! The service was really bad & the hostess was impolite while the food was good. Your hostess needs to learn how to communicate with people 😊
Some of the best pasta I've ever had. The pesto & the bolognese dishes are beyond amazing. The staff, from the servers to the chefs are just fantastic & so damn welcoming. But please don't sleep on the Caesar salad, minestrone soup & desserts!!
Très bon, sans prétention. Les pâtes au pesto sont un vrai régal. Pareil pour la burrata, la focaccia, la salade César... Bref, tout est très bon. On y retourne encore & encore !
Belle expérience & délicieux plats à partager entre amis! Ma note générale : 9/10. Service: Accueillant, chaleureux & bonnes suggestions de vins ! Plats: Les entrées de Burrata sur purée d'artichauts, le crudo Di Banzino, la salade Caesar (une des meilleures que nous avons goûtés à Montréal) & le focaccia étaient incroyablement délicieuses! Nous n'avons pas eu de propositions de desserts par les serveurs. Dommage. Les verres de cocktails étaient bons.
The food was delicious ! We had the pesto pasta & the panzanella salad. They were made with care & quality ingredients & as result were very fresh & flavorful ! An excellent & welcoming service & ambiance too ! I definitely recommend this gem !
I had heard a lot of good things before attending for the first time. Nice place. Chill vibe. We were seated on the terasse. Great service. Prices are reasonable. I would have liked a few more items on the menu (or specials for the day), but realize that's easier said than done. The pistachio pie or cake (whatever it is called) is amazing.
