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!

Booked a reservation for 2 at the bar & it was such a vibe! Great wine options, & we absolutely loved the burrata & pesto pasta (those were only the 2 things we tried as we weren't super hungry). Not a ton of options for vegetarians but there are some so it's definitely worth going! I'm still a little confused about how to book an actual table as we seemed to only be able to book the bar, but wasn't an issue for us.
Every time I visit Montreal, I make sure to stop by Mano Cornuto-it's become an absolute must for me. The food is consistently incredible, with fresh ingredients & thoughtful dishes that never disappoint. The atmosphere is amazing, & the service is always top-notch. You can really feel the care & passion in every detail.
We were a walk-in so I'll go easy on the service because I know how it is for busy employees being handed unplanned tables, but this place left so much to be desired. The pasta itself had an unrefined, simple flavour. I expected something a bit more complex & sophisticated from a place like this. It wasn't bad food, but it could be beat by most Italian restaurants. Food was taken from us before we had a chance to finish our plates. Constant water refills & service went through all the motions but barely listened to us or stayed long enough at the table for us to blurt out we want napkins or how we want the check split. Very rushed, no actual care, just checking boxes. Again I really don't want to blame the servers here because they are probably overwhelmed & just doing what management says in a rush but it's disappointing to pay for food that's just taken right out of your mouth & no time to listen to any of our preferences.

Incredible experience! The menu is not limited to delicious typical Italian dishes, but also includes more refined & elaborate items such as the crudo di branzino (pictured half eaten 🙈). The ox tail was tender as can be & the grilled octopus was one of the best we've ever had. The only thing as good as the food is the service: you are not served by a specific waiter, but rather by a well-orchestrated team of waiters. The food is served fast, your glass is refilled almost instantly - just perfect. Also, strongly recommend sitting at the bar & asking for Juan Carlos who was impeccably attentive. Will be coming back soon!

3.7/5 for me. Mano Cornuto is a great place, don't get me wrong. But, I think it was over hyped by social media. I was looking foward to try this place but, it was a bit underwhelming. Pasta was slighty better than most places, but it was missing salt & was not al dente - sauce was okay. The foccacia was good & the drinks were really good. Again, it's a good place to try, specially for a date or a night with coleagues. Service was amazing too. But for the main courses, i was disappointed (specially because i had high expectations). Maybe it was a one time thing.

A special visit to a special town deserves a special establishment - & Manu Cornuto is it.
I was here two years ago, as you can tell from my review below, but it was so special again that it deserves an update. This visit with my daughter was filled with Montreal history, conversation, &, of course, Italian food - both on the table & in our discussions.
We talked about how we prepare our food & reflected on how, in a city so deeply rooted in Italian tradition & filled with countless great spots, this place still manages to do it a little differently - & a little more special.
Great night. Great service. Kudos. Will always return.
SEPTEMBER 2023
We were going to do steak on our last night-this night, in Montreal,
but, a chef-College teacher buddy told me about this one place out of the dozen he visited on his recent trip.
We did arrive after telling our Uber to let us out blocks away, we changed venues last minute & I am walking wherever & whenever a chef tells me too!
There was no lineup when we got there the place was packed.
After being told on the phone that they did not take reservations I saw quite the opposite occurring. I probably should have asked properly, & perhaps in French when I called :-).
When I inquired further about the reservation miscue, I was politely told one side of the room is reservable but not the other?
Ok.
'Can we sit at the wood'?, . . . Me.
Me -'There are two spots open'.
Her -'We cannot put three'
Me -'it's ok, it's not to tight, & there is an empty stool nearby'
Her -'I cannot do such'
Me -'Cannot or will not'
Silence.
Ok, it was not that abrupt, what I had meant to ask was . . why??
Aren't we all thinking it by now?
I saw only two settings placed in front of the two stools taking up enough room for 4 people.
I guess the restaurant rules in La Belle Provence don't want people to touch elbows when'oui' snack.
Oui, did get in quite quick though & WE were offered a drink, to which WE did order - 3 Peroni draft.
Our table was outside on a great 22 degrees 6:30 late Autumn eve.
The hostess placed our beers on table & two peeps approached; our server & what appeared to be the Sommelier!
All are casually & comfortably attired. A wine is quickly selected, the specials are described, cocktails are also ordered & turnaround on all is swift.
Of particular treat was the discussion with our young Sommelier (Tomas) on our choice of wine, its complexity & kudos to us for choosing. My brother asked how he had such knowledge, to which he politely & proudly replied'It's my job'.
Egg+face>older brother.
We started with the special appetizer; tuna in a can essentially was explained to us - gotta be good yeah.
You cannot believe how GOOD this was (all CAPS good, that's how good)! Such few ingredients on top of quality tuna with a little bomba for flair.
We order all of the appetizers in their menu-gotta be good again right.
There are only four.
But what a four,
do the same as I & order all if you visit.
We had the special pasta, & consistently repeated, few ingredients with impeccable execution. Something thicker than spaghetti, no hole throughout (so not bucatini), endive, butter, good bacon & herbs & Italian goodness.
One more dish, the porc tenderloin it was our servers favourite.
I can see why, seasoned heavy on this trip, but try it too.
Special coffees (in this province=Americano coffees & booze on the side) add male camaraderie & banter, bs & bs related stories, loud, more loud then shushing, & closing with a shot with our server,
My older bro -'you're having one?'
Server -'Yes!'
Egg encore.
One of the better meal experiences I have had in some time.
Wonderful.
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.
