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 !
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!
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…
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
Love the food truly 10/10. The location is great, the Caesar salad is a must, & the branzino never disappoints.
Unfortunately, the service doesn't match the quality of the food. During our visit, an Aperol was spilled on the table & it was wiped with a very damp cloth that only made more of a mess. It took about 15 minutes to receive a coffee & a drink, & around 35 minutes for the food, even though the restaurant wasn't full.
What stands out most is the overall attitude , the staff often seems unfriendly & unapproachable. The food is excellent, but the experience would be so much better with warmer, more attentive service

We had an incredible meal at Manu Cornuto. To start, the Pistachio Burrata was creamy & absolutely to die for. We also ordered the Caesar salad & the ceviche-both were fresh &'wow' worthy.
For mains, we tried the pesto pasta & the bolognese, but the star of the show was the Cream of Squash & Guanciale pasta. It was outstanding
We finished off the night with the Pistachio Tiramisu, which completely blew my mind. If you are looking for high-quality Italian food at a great price, this spot is a must-visit.
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 its authenticity & the horrific food at an unbelievably busy place around the corner… 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 a 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 good but I tend to focus on the negroni 🥃 here… after all I am a believer of'Plastique, c'est chic!'
This was going to be my very first ever one star review but the service & service recovery earned it a second star. We had high expectations from google reviews but everything fell apart after the appetizers & our Christmas dinner was sadly ruined.
All three pastas were beyond disappointing. As an aubergine lover, I went straight for the Rigatoni alla Norma ($27) but after the first excited taste then a second suspicious taste, I was immediately certain that I wasn't going to have a third bite. The sauce was bland, basically canned tomato paste, & the cubed aubergine stew was overcooked, uninviting & had a hint of staleness.
We had encouraged our guest of honour to order the day's pasta special - Linguini Carbonara ($27) because well who can spoil carbonara. Sadly, it was ruined. The chef had charred the pancetta to such an incredibly sad state that its bitterness had infused into the oil. Attempting but failing to create a sense of richness, this same bitter, pungent oil was poured over the linguini as its base sauce (with hardly a hint of egg), creating a dish of intensely bitter simply inedible pasta. I looked back to see if it was a mistake arising from a busy kitchen but it wasn't busy so this big mistake was to me not evidently unintentional.
The Fiorentini alla Bolognese ($25) was the best of all three pastas. It was at this juncture that my friend stopped me & said'it's not the best, it's just the least bad of them three'. Enough said. & as the host of this Christmas dinner, my evening came crashing down.
Despite the above, as I had previously mentioned, the service was faultless. Drinks were topped up quickly; the waitress was amiable, efficient & made us feel right at home despite the very loud music. Without our asking, she also apologetically removed two basically untouched pastas from our bill & comp'd our espressos. None of this was her fault so she was ultimately rewarded with a 50% gratuity on a $140 bill.
My final thoughts. Disappointment with a capital D. Prices are high for what this place is but these are all stated on the menu so it's fair game for all. Make sure to ask for prices of the daily specials though as those are not stated anywhere otherwise you may be rudely surprised by the $150 beef special of the day.
If you were to drop by for a simple evening of light drinks & appetizers to share, I would say that Mano Cornuto could be a happy choice as the Caesar Salad ($17), Piatto Antipasto ($17) & Burrata ($20) were delightful. But sadly that's where it ends. The kitchen seems to be good at putting ingredients together (ie. plating appetizers) but anything that requires cooking & true culinary skill, it fails at miserably, well at least for that evening, at our table.

Service is friendly, everyone is nice. It was really refreshing. The food was even better; the pasta well al dente, caesar salad that's actually good, wide selection of drinks. Will be coming back to try the whole menu!
On s'était fait grandement recommandé cette place & nous avons malheureusement été déçus. Aucun de nos plats & cocktails n'étaient bons. Gros highlight : la salade Césars qui était excellente. Les desserts étaient bien aussi!
Notre service était vraiment ordinaire aussi.
Un peu overhyped, sorry.
The service was ok. The pesto pasta was delicious in flavor but arrived tepid; when reheated with added water, it came back warmer but unfortunately diluted. The cocktail was very good. The Caesar salad was excellent.
As a walk-in, I was seated at the bar behind a cement column - the last spot available. I asked to wait for a table at the bar but wasn't offered this option, which would have made the experience more enjoyable.
Overall, the restaurant has a lot of potential, & while this visit could have been better, I'll give it another try.
Literally cannot describe the quality of this food. It is unreal. The focaccia is epic. Always enjoy the crudo & caesar salad. Everything is delicious!!
L attente vaut largement la peine, la nourriture est délicieuse & l atmosphère est agréable. Le personnel est débordé mais le service reste chaleureux & attentionné. Mention spéciale à la très efficace & souriante hôtesse ( cheveux bruns bouclés, lunettes).
Antipasto, salade panzanella, pâtes bolognaise, tout était savoureux! Mon highlight de la soirée fut le gâteau à la pistache, tout simplement divin!!!
***Les tabourets (au comptoir) sont inconfortables, je suggère de demander une table sur la terrasse arrière. Réservation recommandée. ***
