Renzo Sandwich is a sandwich shop located in the heart of the Mile End, at the corner of Fairmount and Saint-Laurent. We serve hearty, gourmet sandwiches made with artisanal Italian ciabatta bread — from the Classic Sub to the Turkey Club, the Mortadella-Artichoke, the Renzo Chicken, the Corned Beef, the Cubano… and many other delicious creations.
Across numerous reviews, Renzo Sandwich is described as a standout Montreal spot for big, hearty subs made with fresh bread and generous fillings. Lovers of the place praise the bold flavors and solid balance in classics like the Philly cheesesteak, mortadella artichoke, roast beef Italian, cubano, the Renzo chicken, and the turkey club, though some sandwiches vary in quality and notes about too much sauce or underseasoned meat appear. The bread is repeatedly highlighted as crusty and soft, a big factor in the overall positive impression, and portions are noted as substantial, sometimes massive. The vibe is warm and retro, and service is often fast and friendly, with takeout a strong option for busy days, though peak times can mean waits or crowded seating. Value is seen as fair to high given portion size and ingredients, with many calling it the best sandwich spot in Montreal, while a few feel certain items miss the mark and the atmosphere cannot fully compensate. Desserts such as tiramisu and key lime pie receive praise and add to the overall experience. Taken together, the reviews present Renzo as a must-try destination that excites aficionados, while acknowledging occasional inconsistency and practical downsides like seating limits and service during rushes.
Ordered on uber. Could not add notes. Sandwiches arrived soggy & falling apart. Fried chicken in sandwich nearly non existent. Very bad experience. Will not order again. Waste of money.
Incredible. Great service, & atmosphere. I have tried almost all the sandwiches with the Cubano probably being my top choice. $20 for a sandwich is up there, but they are great to split with someone.
We stopped there by chance & I ordered Philly cheesesteak. Well, I understand that steak is so expensive these days, but that doesn't justify to use the lowest quality of beef to serve your customers, even the marinating tastes weird!
They'd rather remove Philly cheesesteak from the menu or rename the sandwich, or use real steak & higher the price.
However I will give another chance for other sandwiches but definitely not the so called Philly cheesesteak.
tomates & salade, pas trop fraîches sous-marin non assaisonner, j'ai dû insister pour obtenir du sel & du poivre pour mettre sur les tomates, mais il n'y avait que du sel. Je ne comprends pas cette mentalité de ne pas assaisonner les sandwiches. Logano serai aussi bienvenue avec le classique.

Difficile de réinventer … une sandwich.
Mais visiblement, le défi a été relevé par Renzo Sandwich.
Nous avons tout simplement adoré le sandwich au steak Philly, comme on dit au Québec c'était « sur la coche » !!
Une quantité très généreuse de steak avec une sauce succulente. Bonne à s'en lécher les doigts. J'ose dire qu'il s'agit du meilleur sandwich steak Philly que j'ai pu goûter dans ma vie.
J'étais tenté par chacun des éléments qu'il y avait sur le menu , tous les combinaisons d'ingrédients pour chacune des sandwiches me semblait bien calculer pour donner une expérience différente à chaque visite.
Le service est rapide & très efficace, tous les employés étaient souriant, & semblaient même s'amuser derrière le comptoir, ce qui crée une belle atmosphère général pour la salle à manger.
Je vous remercie pour ce délicieux repas, & je vais certainement revenir goûter à chacun des sandwiches lors de mes pauses dîner !
After watching an influencer's review, I decided to pay this establishment a visit. I ordered a no.2 (Philly Cheesesteak), a no.4 (Cubano), & a no.6 (Roast Beek Italian).
Staff is in-tune with one another like a well-oiled machine. They are respectful. They all make efforts to keep their work area clean. Bravo!
As stated on the menu, the Philly Cheesesteak is VERY messy. Delicious. Nowhere as good as the real Philly deal, mind you, but worthy.
The Cubano was meh. The mixture of ingredients didn't sit well with my tastebuds. It wasn't bad, no, but if I ever visit this place again, I won't be ordering it again.
The Roast Beef Italian was the best of all three sandwiches. The horseradish mayo wasn't my favorite, but at least I tried it & will know for next time.
Prices are reasonable as their sandwiches are LOADED with ingredients. Parking can be a real PITA so prepare yourself mentally before visiting this place.
Are the sandwiches on the pricier side? Yeah, of course. But they're absolutely worth it. It's a good treat every now & then. They're absolutely packed with good quality ingredients.
The staff here are super friendly. I highly recommend trying this place out.
9/10 sandwiches. Not a perfect rating because we've come a few times & they ran out of bread. Can even be used as a blunt weapon.
Sandwicherie de quartier avec des ingrédients de qualité' évidemment que c'est mieux que les grosses chaînes. J'ai surtout aimé le pain qui est croustillant & moelleux en même temps. J'y retournerai pour essayer d'autres sandwiches.

Super bon sandwich, seulement avec un enfant, aucun sandwich « version enfant »
Si on veut quelque chose plus pour enfant, il faut tout de même payer le plein prix du sandwich. Le pain était aussi difficile a croquer pour un enfant de 4-5 ans.
Je recommande l'endroit pareil beau menu, bons sandwiches.
Great selection of sandwiches that are jam-packed with ingredients, making them totally worth the price. We had the Chicken Renzo & the Vegetarian Sub: both delicious. The restaurant has a charming vintage aesthetic. Counter service only.
This is hands down the best sandwich in Montreal (apologies to the other greats). The service is quick, the bread is incredible & the sandwiches are jam packed. You will leave full & very happy. Do not miss this spot.
