Review Summary

Mano Cornuto is frequently celebrated as a premier Italian destination in Montreal, praised for its authentic, high-quality cuisine and vibrant atmosphere. Many visitors highlight the Caesar salad, pistachio burrata, and fresh pasta as standout menu items, while the sandwiches and tiramisu also receive consistent acclaim. Although the restaurant is highly regarded for its delicious food and welcoming, energetic vibe, some guests note that the space can become quite loud and crowded. Experiences with service vary; while many patrons enjoy attentive and knowledgeable care, others have reported inconsistent service or long wait times during peak hours. Reservations are strongly recommended due to the restaurant's popularity, as seating is limited and often fills up quickly. Overall, the establishment is widely considered a local gem that offers a memorable dining experience, making it a regular choice for both casual lunches and special dinners.

Mano Cesar & crudo were very good. The bolognese & pounded beef were very basic & unmemorable.

This is a classic Italian restaurant with a very traditional atmosphere. Staff is bilingual, but definitely more french leaning. The pasta I had was okay, although I wish I had tried the antipasti as they looked really good. Definitely would recommend going out of your comfort zone for the food selection, as I don't think the "safer" options are as good.

Great spot with a lively atmosphere! If you're aiming for an outdoor seat, be prepared to wait at least 15 minutes longer than the estimated time-but you can enjoy a drink while you wait! The pasta is incredible, the drinks are creative & fun, & the best part? They welcome dogs on the patio!

Arriving pretty late in the evening to a hotel in Griffintown, it was difficult to find a place open for dinner. The Alt concierge said that Mano Cornuto was pretty much the only place still serving - & I'm so glad to have been introduced to this gem. There was a massive storm which shut down the festival happening at Jean-Drapeau, so people started coming in pretty quickly - but we were sat at the counter & given menus immediately. The pasta bolognese was AMAZING, & the wine pairing was bang-on. I think the biggest surprise was when asking for the bill, just how inexpensive everything was. I'd highly recommend getting a counter seat to watch the kitchen in action - it was a great dinner, & I will happily go back.

Première fois mais pas la dernière, un service plus qu'impécable d'Adèle, agréable, conviviale, nourriture délicieuse préparée avec des aliments frais & de bon goût, personel accueillant & on se sent plus comme un invité qu'un client tellement tout le monde est sympathique. Une belle découverte & un excellent resto pour célébrer ma fête ou pour profiter de la belle terrasse. Merci encore à Adèle pour son excellent service !

Starter was very good (focaccia with burrata & tomatoes) but mains were not great. It was a bit expensive for what you got & annoyingly, there were a lot of flies in the restaurant.

Wife & I ate at the bar. Service was great, food was amazing, & they played my hip hop beats. We will be back next time we visit Montreal & also try the cafe next door.
