Review Summary

Manuzza is widely celebrated for serving exceptional Sicilian arancini that are crispy, flavorful, and filled with high quality ingredients ranging from traditional ragu to creative options like truffle and pistachio. Many patrons describe the experience as a genuine taste of Sicily in the heart of Montreal, noting that the staff is consistently friendly, accommodating, and welcoming. While the atmosphere is frequently praised as cozy and inviting, some visitors note the shop has a limited footprint and can be subject to city noise when dining on the terrace. Although feedback on sandwiches is mixed, the overwhelming consensus highlights the generous portions, delicious vegetarian options, and overall high value, making it a must visit destination for those seeking authentic and quick Italian street food.

Delicious!

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!

Petit endroit qui sert de délicieux Arancini, j'y ai essayé le classique Ragu ainsi que l'Arancini du jour à saveur de betteraves, fromage de chèvre, miel & noix. Les 2 étaient délicieux, cuits sur commande & donc très frais, pour un prix raisonnable (12-13$). J'y retournerai pour sur!

Tried this at the Italian festival upon a friends recommendation. Tried the ragu & spinach arancini. Best arancini I’ve ever had!
