Great atmosphere, amazing staff. They told me the beef is halal.
They do have bacon so to avoid cross contamination of Halal you can ask them to wash the knife.

Amazing sandwiches!! First time in Montreal & we were stopping for a quick bite. The lady at the front was so friendly, answered questions about the meat/toppings, & gave great suggestions. The food was so fresh & delicious, I'll be thinking about The Godfather sub for a while. Can't wait to come back soon.
Such a special spot. Clearly a family-run business - parents working the kitchen & taking orders, with their two young daughters (probably around 6 & 8 years old) helping out & greeting you with the biggest smiles. It instantly warms your heart.
The space is vibrant & beautiful, the food is fresh & delicious, & the order-monitoring system makes everything smooth even when it's busy. Amazing vibes, wonderful people. Highly recommend!
This sandwich shop was an AMAZING find. The McGill Debate Club organized a tournament with around 90 participants, & we needed reliable catering with vegetarian/vegan options.
When we called MONO, the employee was incredibly friendly & proactive in helping us figure out what would work best. I was put in contact with the owner, Sara, & we quickly found a great common ground. She was receptive, accommodating with dietary needs, & even offered free delivery. The Go Habs Go & the Lucie & Mom sandwiches were flavourful & fresh.
Our biggest fear was ending up with dry sandwiches, but it was the complete opposite: perfectly moist.
Thank you, MONO, for the fantastic service. We look forward to visiting the shop in person soon!

Staff are extremely nice & friendly. However, the sandwich does NOT TASTE GOOD. We have some amazing sandwiches you can get around Montreal. Bossa, not far, MezzMiz down the street, or even Antep kebab. Also the stench of rats living in the building/kitchen is strong when you walk in. I think they can do better. Very kind people but this is IN NO WAY a 4.7/5. This is a solid 1-2/5 at best. It's extremely expensive for what it is. I do not want a response.
I visited Mono & tried the Godfather hero, while my wife had the Simple Sandwich on round ciabatta. Both sandwiches were well prepared & very tasty. When combined with their seasoned fries, they make a complete & satisfying meal. We really enjoyed it!
