    I came here on a Friday night with three friends. We each ordered a sandwich and shared some fries, onion wedges, fried mac & cheese bites, and one cannoli. I tasted the pulled pork, steak, and veal sandwiches. Each one was so extremely spicy that I burnt my palate and my throat was on fire. It didn't say anywhere that any of these were spicy. I really didn't enjoy my meal. The onion wedges were also very spicy. The mac & cheese bites and fries tasted alright. Honestly, the only food I enjoyed was the cannoli. That was actually excellent. Also, the guy at the counter took my friend's order wrong, so they brought him something different than what he ordered. They made him pay the difference for his order, although it should have been on the house because they made a mistake. I even told the waiter it should be on the house and he wouldn't budge. I was disappointed with my experience here.

    Their café au lait

    This is a very homey restaurant that's very much a part of the St. Leonard culture. I've been here a couple times in the afternoon, and it has a very comfortable, almost family-like atmosphere. There seems to be clientele of all ages, from high school students to old-folk who congregate here for a classic Italian sandwich and coffee. I had a café au lait, which was not served in a French style (porcelain cup/bowl), but was served in a small tumbler glass. It had a layer of micro foam on top, so it resembled a piccolo latte much more than a cafe au lait. The coffee was smooth, but strangely, it was not very hot. It tasted good, but it was not what I was expecting. I'm really curious to know how their cafe au lait differs from the "latte" offered on their menu. I heard their sandwiches are great; if I ever return, I will have to try one of their classic Italian sandwiches!

    1 in a Milano. @cafemilanomtl in St Leo knows how it's done. Steak & capicollo sub with hot eggplant followed by their famous coffee. MAMMA MIA! Parking can be tough when it's busy but the service is faster than uncle Tony's Ferrari. A true JEM & a must if you're the only one in MTL who hasn't been. P.S. new location in Laval coming soon!

    Being from the South Shore, we are rarely in St.Leonard so I had never heard about this place until recently (through Yelp of course) Around 11pm, we were in the area and were thinking of grabbing a coffee from Tim's but out of curiosity, searched on Yelp if anything else is open. It truly was a surprise to find a non-chain café that's open 24hrs! The place had a line up and was buzzing, filled with people of all ages from large families to couples and students. Despite having such a large seating-area inside, it took a while before we were able to get a seat - I guess the family-like atmosphere doesn't let anyone leave! After reading the reviews, we had to try the famous Cannolis (which definitely lived up to their reputation - delicious!). I also had a Mocha which was served in a small glass - a bit disappointing for its price and average quality. Overall, would definitely return for the lovely atmosphere and cannolis!

    Milano coffee, finest example of classic European flavour, try it iced!

    24 hour operation that is a must try while in Montreal. Great people behind the counter serving up really good "fast" Italian food. Get yourself a coffee, a panini (I recommend the plant based option but regular sausage all dressed used to be the go to favourite) and if you're lucky one of their zeppole or cannoli if not zeppole season. Ask for no hot peppers if you're not into heat (it's medium hot at best) as all dressed includes hot peppers on every panini. I love coming by on a warm evening, enjoying a cold beer and a bite to eat while enjoying the sights and sounds of the people crowding into the place.

    Order, sit down, relax, enjoy the people watching and company. Count the satchels and fanny packs rolling by. The service is great, people behind the counter are friendly and food is excellent. Try the all-dressed sausage, plant based option available. The cannoli are some of the best you can get anywhere. They go well with the excellent coffee.

    This gems is open 24/7, in Saint-Leonard. Their fresh delicious sandwich are made with fresh vegetable and meat. Good customer service and atmosphere. I had Italian sausages sandwich fill with marinated eggplants, salads, oignons and tomatoes. Their desserts are so delicious cannoli it is. Every time i am in montreal i have to give them a visit.

    Their poutine is pretty yummy!!
    Aimee H.

    Busy spot for a quick bite and coffee (of course). Indoors it can get quite loud. Service is decent. The poutine was really good. The fries are cut like beams and are nice and crispy. The gravy is just right, not too salty, hot enough to melt the grated cheese. The Milano sandwiches are light and packed with ingredients but not very filling.

    They have hands down one of the best cannolis in Montreal. They also make great zeppole and other pastries, and coffee. The place is usually lively, and their parking lot tends to be packed. It's also open very late, which is a plus. The cafe is spacious enough to accommodate groups, making it great for get togethers for coffee and food. All in all, it's a good cafe with good food and great cannolis.

    Onion rings

    Nostalgia is a fickle thing. I used to come here regularly during my clubbing days (at least when I struck out...) at 3 am. I remembered really enjoying these sandwiches due to me either being famished or being half drunk and I guess hanging out here with friends and enjoying a sandwich and a drink can be a lot of fun. Anyways.... let's talk about the grub. Milano serves Italian styled sandwiches and you can get it either a 7 inch panini or a 10 inch panini. They are sold without combo options at around $10 each which makes them a little pricey for what they are. They have a variety of sandwiches such as steak subs, chicken, veal, eggplant, porchetta....and overall they're good but ill be honest and state I've had better elsewhere. In fact, there are much better options not far away from Cafe Milano but sadly they're not open at all hours like Cafe Milano is. I guess you take what you can get. I had their onion rings as well during my last visit and they were just OK. They are a little spicy and on that note for those of you who like spicy, the sandwiches can be made quite spicy to your pleasure. They also have coffee (it is a cafe after all) as well as Italian pastries like cannoli. I didn't partake this time around but they do have a solid reputation in this regard. They also have a large eating area that is pretty chill with lots of room. They also have a terrace upside which can be great during the summer. They also serve salads now.

    Awesome sandwiches! I always make a point of stopping in when I'm in the area. Love the marinated eggplant. Great coffee as well. Now if I could only explain to the locals that "passing" in foozball is the proper way to play I'd give it 5* ;)

    Busy place with a genuine Italian spirit. Went there for a business meeting: they have a big room downstairs equipped with big TV screens you can connect a PC to and very efficient AC comfortable enough to fit 20 people. Subs and salads are fresh and lively, service is fast and it feels like Italy indeed.

    Sandwich da Marco

    3.7(3 reviews)
    2.3 kmSaint-Léonard

    Bonjour Sandwich Da Marco,…read more J'aimerais vous informer de l'expérience que ma conjointe et moi avons subi ce jeudi 30 octobre 2025. Entre 15h00 et 15h30 nous sommes arrivés à votre restaurant. Ma conjointe est restée dans la voiture. Je rentre dans le resto et il n'y a personne, mais vraiment personne. En fait, le cuisinier, je venais de le croiser dehors en train de jaser avec quelqu'un. La première chose que je remarque est l'état INSALUBRE du comptoir de préparation. De l'huile, de la mayonnaise, des sauces, des assaisonnements partout sur le comptoir, comme s' il venait de conclure un "rush" de clients, mais j'étais seul dans le resto. Étant un "vétérant" de la restauration, nous avions l'adage:"If you can lean, you can clean", donc si le cuisinier avait le temps de jaser dehors avec un ami, la cuisine aurait dû être impeccable. Un inspecteur de la ville aurait "pété une coche". Quand je rentre dans un resto j'examine toujours les lieux - défaut professionnel d'une carrière antérieur - et quand des malpropretés en pleine vue sont permises, je me demande ce qu'est l'état ce que je ne peux pas voir, de ce qui est caché du client, comme les réfrigérateurs et les congélateurs. Et dans le comptoir de préparation, est-ce que les sauces sont bien réfrigérées en tout temps? Les composantes chaudes, maintenue à une température adéquate? J'ai commandé un T-REX et un Charlie's Chicken (Pas de Dijon, pas de tomates) et 2 sauces spéciales. J'ai rapidement noté que la quantité de viande sur les 2 sandwich était plutôt mince, dans le sens que pour le T-REX (mon sandwich) je goûtait pleinement la saucisses mais le bœuf braisé était plutôt absent. Quand le cuisinier préparait le sandwich, une fois la viande étendue, je voyais le pain à travers. Et là le cuisinier sort le bacon pour le Charlie's Chicken et il est complètement DÉGOULINANT de graisse chaude et ca coulait partout, pas mal dégueux (Solution c'est un bain-marie, ca conserve le bacon en très bonne qualité et le gras est écoulé dans la panne dessous). Il va sans dire, mais je vais le dire pareil que je regrette d'avoir même commandé le repas et encore plus de l'avoir mangé. Mais j'étais à jeun depuis près de 20 heures pour une prise de sang... j'avais FAIM. Mes 5 "voyages" au toilette qui ont suivi n'ont qu'empirer mon regret. Ma conjointe fut également malade toute la soirée. Je trouve ca "bin platte" et décevant parce que j'étais un fan fini depuis presque l'ouverture de la sandwicherie même si je ne pouvais pas y aller aussi souvent que j'aurais désiré.

    Absolutely obsessed! Sandwich da Marco never misses. The…read moresandwich? Chef's kiss fresh, flavorful, and made with love. You can tell they care about quality. Plus, the people there are genuinely kind, warm, and welcoming. It's the kind of place that makes you want to come back just for the good vibes (and, of course, the amazing sandwiches). Highly recommend!

    I absolutely love Zytynsky's Deli!!!! Being a big fan of Ukrainian food, had to check out…read moreZytynsky's during my visit to Montréal. A little out of the way from everything else had been doing, but wanted to check out this local institution. So glad I did! Did not expect Zytynsky's being in such an unpretentious brick building, but the magic was all inside. The store had an excellent curated selection of Eastern European gourmet items, all clearly presented with pride. Since I was on vacation, my goal was something to eat that day, but did spend some time looking at all the imported goodies. When I arrived, Angel, the extremely friendly woman behind the counter, was dealing with a couple of familiar faces to her. I overheard that she's been at the store for about 40 years, but I didn't realize that she was the owner and the founder was her grandfather. At my turn to order, I asked her for some suggestions. Ending up with a Smoked Meat Sandwich and a Polish Ham, Hungarian Salami and Cheese Sandwich. Also grabbed two cans of Ukrainian Zero Alcohol Beer. We chatted a little while she prepared my food, and she was absolutely charming. Able to enjoy both sandwiches upon return to my hotel. While for years been a big fan of Hungarian Salami (which was fantastic) the star on that sandwich was the amazing Polish Ham... maybe the best I've ever had! The sensational Smoked Meat Sandwich was perfect! Look forward to my next visit and thank you Angel for my memorable eats! Appreciate your support of Ukraine, too. Zytynsky's Deli is a remarkable place and recommend you check it out! Slava Ukraini!
