Came here on a solo work trip based off a recommendation & I couldn't be happier! The atmosphere was cozy & fun, service was great, & the food was so good! The pesto spaghetti & burrata were divine! I would definitely recommend checking this place out.
The burrata with pistachio was really good! I got the pesto pasta, enjoyed the perfect al dente texture, but found it too salty to my liking. The portion seemed small at first but I ended up feeling full, the pasta was surprisingly heavy. The vibes of the restaurant are nice, but expect lots of smells/smoke from the open kitchen. I enjoyed my dinner but would mention that the restaurant feels overhyped to me.
I recently had the pleasure of dining at Mano Cornuto, & it was an unforgettable experience! From the moment we walked in, the warm ambiance & inviting decor set the perfect tone for our evening. We started with the Caesar salad, which was crisp & flavorful, perfectly dressed without being overwhelming. The burrata was a standout - creamy & rich, it paired beautifully with the fresh accompaniments. The roasted squash (zucca arrosto) was a delightful surprise, showcasing a wonderful balance of sweetness & savoriness that left us wanting more. For our main course, we indulged in the mafaldine al pesto, which was simply divine. The pasta was cooked to perfection, & the pesto was vibrant & fragrant, making it one of the best pasta dishes we've had in a long time. We also tried the carpaccio de manzo, which was beautifully presented & melt-in-your-mouth tender. We were so full by the end of our meal that we didn't have room for dessert, but that just gives us another reason to come back! Overall, Mano Cornuto exceeded our expectations in every way. Highly recommend for anyone looking for authentic Italian cuisine in Montreal!
My favorite Italian place in town so far. I really enjoy their pesto spaghetti, so tasty. Their stake & chickpea also taste good as well. We really enjoy. The cocktail is so so personally. But the tiramisu is super delicious, one of the best. I love it. The place is quite loud & the service is moderated. Will come back again!
First time at Mano Cornuto. Had a great beef carpaccio for appi with focaccia, followed by pesto pasta for me & mushroom pasta for my wife. We sat at the bar & enjoyed watching the staff work & chefs prepare meals. Would strongly recommend.
We had a seat at the bar, which was a great spot since we got to see the team in action. They have a great variety of cocktails, wine & the food - incredible. We had the burrata, the pesto spaghetti, the Zucca & hanger steak w/chick peas. Everything was delicious. Highly recommend!
Stopped in for a quick lunch & lucked out as we didn't make a reso. Definitely recommend making one! Great vibes & fantastic service. While we waited for our table, we watched the well oiled kitchen do their thing. Our mouths watered in anticipation. Their menu is simple & short. You know it's going to be good! Order the Caesar salad. You'll be sorry if you don't! So good! We also shared the burrata that came with the most delicious focaccia bread. We shared 2 pastas to taste - tonnarelli pesto & fiorentini alla bolognese. Both super tasty & perfectly cooked.
