Je ne vous apprends rien si je vous dis que ce sont de fabuleux arancini!
J'ai essayé celui au ragu & j'ai adoré. Petites versions ou pleines.
Bancs hauts pour y manger.
Ordered a big batch of arancini as well as two lasagnas, everything was really delicious! The owner is very helpful, friendly & accommodating. It was fantastic experience for both food & service.
Will be back!
Ps: everything is great so you can't go wrong but if I had to pick favourites I'd go with the ragu arancini & the vegetarian lasagna

This is a great place to eat Arancini. We tasted the mushroom one, the spinach one & the ragu. If I were to pick one I would pick the ragu because it's the most flavorful. They are not greasy at all. They have a small summer terrace but it's next to the road so there's a lot of car noise (to be expected in the city). Overall a great place with good Sicilian arancini.
Amazing arancini & friendly service at Manuzza!!!! Crispy, flavorful, & perfectly stuffed-their Sicilian street food is a must-try. The menu offers delicious classics & creative twists (truffle, pistachio, ragù). Staff is warm & helpful, making the experience even better. Great spot for a quick bite or a casual meal. 10/10! ⭐?⭐?⭐?⭐?⭐?
We were wandering around Little Italy in Montreal & found this cute little café. The vibe was great, & we loved sitting outside to enjoy our snacks. We had a chicken sandwich & tried both the ragù & cheese prosciutto arancini. The cheese prosciutto one was my favourite; nice & cheesy without being too strong, while the ragù one was good but more typical. We also had a margarita, & it was so good, not too sweet & really well balanced. Little Italy is definitely worth checking out; there are so many good spots, way better than eating downtown!
Got the box of 12 arancini & requested the ragu, spinach, prosciutto, & funghi. Ended up getting 4 ragu, 4 spinach, & 4 cheese (the last is not even an option on Uber Eats). The arancini were delicious, but that's a big difference. I couldn't advise Uber Eats because I wasn't a hundred percent sure until they were all eaten (they're all indentical).
Incroyables arrancinis ! Mon conjoint est un italien & il revient d'un voyage en Sicile; il me disait à quel point les arrancinis de Manuzza sont aussi bons que là-bas. Même plus qu'à certains endroits qu'il a essayé dans certaines villes. Les meilleurs sont sans contredits celui au Ragù & celui aux champignons. C'est réconfortant comme bouffe, c'est bourratif & tellement goûteux. En plus, le service est impeccable & on se fait accueillir comme si on était de la famille. Vraiment une belle expérience chez Manuzza. Seul irritant : Les heures d'ouverture ! Fermé le dimanche ! Ça c'est moins le fun, surtout qu'on fait souvent nos courses au Marché Jean-Talon à côté le dimanche. Mais sinon, note parfaite ! Un vrai MUST si vous voulez manger de la vraie bouffe italienne !!!
This place was a pleasant surprise! The food was authentic Sicilian. The prosciutto arancini & the ricotta & cheese arancini were very good but the ragu arancini was incredibly delicious. You also have to try a cannoli! Really good!! I have been to Sicily & this place is the real deal!
These arancini are delicious! We tried the ragu, funghi, prosciutto & spinach/ricotta & it was so flavourful! We ordered take out & ate them in Jarry park! Arancini were warm & fresh from the oven! Can't wait to back to this place!
