Mano Cornuto

Really hit the spot for simple and delicious Italian food. The menu’s small but everything is fresh and has great flavor. The pesto pasta came highly recommended by family and friends, and it was fantastic. The desserts were a nice surprise—especially the pistachio cake.nnIt’s trendy but not over-the-top, with friendly service and a relaxed vibe. Plus, the coffee spot next door, Mano Figa, is perfect if you’re grabbing something quick to go. Family took us here, and we’ll definitely be back!nnI’ve been told reservations are a must because it’s is full all the time.

Some of the best pasta I’ve ever had. The pesto and the bolognese dishes are beyond amazing. The staff, from the servers to the chefs are just fantastic and so damn welcoming. But please don’t sleep on the Caesar salad, minestrone soup and desserts!!

This restaurant is serving real Italian dishes . Menu is not much , for you not to be puzzled what to order. ALL items we tried were rich in flavor, tasty, and will make you think to order more. Service is very nice and waiters are friendly, suggesting their specialty of the day...will come again next time we are in Montreal.

Our dining experience was exceptional, from the food to the attentive service. We had a 7 pm reservation and were lucky to snag a table outside, which added to the evening’s charm.nnWe started with warm olives, the branzino, and a Caesar salad—each dish meticulously prepared, allowing the fresh ingredients to shine. The chef’s delicate touch was evident in every bite.nnFor mains, we opted for the bolognese and squid ink risotto, both bursting with authentic Italian flavors. The seasoning was spot-on, highlighting the chef’s mastery of traditional techniques.nnTo finish, we shared the pistachio coffee cake, which was a perfect balance of simplicity and flavor. The roasted pistachios elevated the cake, making it a memorable conclusion to the meal.nnThe service was equally impressive. Our server’s attentiveness and care made the evening even more enjoyable. This restaurant is now one of our top picks for a special meal, a rare find in Montreal these days.

Absolutely insane food. Everything was so good, service was fast, and I loved the open kitchen concept by the bar so you can watch the chefs cook! The menu is just right—not too many options so as to be overwhelmed, but every dish had its own spin, be it a unique pasta shape or an unexpected flavor profile. We had the burrata with focaccia 10/10, the bolognese, and one of the pesto pasta dishes.nnThe dessert menu was excellent as well, which is not always the case for dinner establishments—we thoroughly enjoyed the pistachio coffee cake and tiramisu with a bit of an orange zest kick. Servers were prompt and friendly.
