Restaurant Momesso

This used to be one of my favorite place as a child and would visit a few times a month. The sausage sub is a classic and has been for over 30 years now. Simple and delicious. People and service are friendly. Now that I no longer live in Montreal I make a point to stop by when I am in town.

Best sub you have ever eaten! And the moment you step in, you are greeted with a friendly hello! And they treat you like family. Amazing service and amazing food! The ingredients are fresh, the steak in the steak sub is tender and fresh and good quality meat.

Amazing Lunch , I travel to Montreal a couple times a month and I make this one of my places to eat ... Always great service and food is over the top ! YUM ... See you soon keep up the great work .

Great food and a unique Montreal atmosphere, sad that it'll close this month but I'm glad I got to try this Montreal institution

I haven't been there for 15 or more years and boy was I wrong to do that! The sub was super fresh and made perfect. My friends were impressed too! The staff made me feel like I've known them for years... if you want a great sub and feel like you're eating in your own kitchen then this is the place to go.

Super happy for the owners that they’re closing this chapter on a high note. That said, I went back for the first time today after what must be at least 15 years, and I must say the subs are a fraction of the size of their « ancestors », and cost 24$ plus tax+tip!!! 30 dollars for a sub that doesn’t even fill you up??!! Say it ain’t so Momesso. Enjoy retirement.

This place looks like nothing from the outside. Inside it is pure nostalgia from another era’s sport center dinning room. BUT, don’t let the first impression get the best of you. I had a cheeseburger and it was the best I had in a loooooong time, AND they have Brio which is amazing (they also do real coffees). It’s your best Montreal dinner meeting with Italian delicacy. MOSTLY, the service was efficient, kind and thoughtful. I have been working in fine dining restaurant for many years now and the waiter had an outstanding service for every step of the experience. She managed to make the act of having a cheeseburger in a basement restaurant feel like being both at Home and at your most refined table. The place is clean, ambiance is cozy and warm. I highly recommend.

As others have stated, this is a Montreal Classic. Great Subs with great service and the prices are fairly reasonable. Anytime you are in the area you must stop here to get a bite to eat. Food: 5 Service: 4.5 Atmosphere: 5 Price: $20CAD per person Total: 14.5/5 (Rounding up to 15/15)

If you have not had a sausage sub here, you can NEVER say you have been and experienced Montreal. Bucket list culinary excellence. All substance no fluff. GL

Nothing to write home about. The sub bread was a bit chewy/stale. Sausage sub was not mind blowing and fries are sort of standard in the casse-croûte mold (soft, served in brown bag, minimally salted). I won't be searching this out again, and sort of wish I didn't spend the $$ on it, but it wasn't bad per se. The service was punctual, and there was a nice neighbourhood establishment vibe and lunch crowd there. Cozy and familiar with a little bar too.

Stumbled upon this location one night and decided to get some dinner with friends. The sausage submarine was something I never had before but enjoyed very much. There was coleslaw onions and Italian vinaigrette (not like the kraft one) and tomatoes. It was greasy juicy and I would recommend this for a staying in and watching movies meal because it's heavy and messy. Poutine was good we all were able to share it all tho we asked for the sauce on the side it didn't arrive super soggy so it was so able. Burger was good but not as good as the submarine. Didn't realize how close this location was I'll for sure uber eats them again on a hangout night.

tfw you go into a place for a great sub & come out with some of the best fries you've had in years.

I had dinner and drinks here with my husband, a few of his old highschool classmates, and their partners. It was a milestone reunion and the organizers decided that Momesso's would be a good place, and I have to agree. The food was good, not too expensive and it's a sports bar that didn't mind having 30-40 people who got a little loud at times, lol. Momesso's looks and feels like a divey sports bar you'd find in Little Italy in Toronto in the 80's. They are famous for their subs, but they also have burgers and pizza. My husband and I shared a 14" steak sub ($16.50) and a small poutine ($6.50). We were just going to eat out of the same plate and bowl (we were sitting side by side), but I thought it was really nice of them to give us our halves of the sub on separate plates, and they even divided the poutine and put each half in separate bowls. The steak sub had lots of meat in it, some cheese, sauteed bell peppers, mushrooms and shredded iceberg lettuce. It also had hot sauce in it, but not enough, so I added more, haha. They have extra hot sauce on the tables in little Solo Cups. The hot sauce is not like Frank's or Sriracha, it has pickled vegetables in it and it's a bit on the oily side. I liked the spicy kick but I didn't like the oil. The bread is toasted white submarine bread. I didn't think I would like the sub, but I actually did! The poutine was also delicious. They were generous with the gravy and the cheese curds. The fries were delicious. They were crispy and slightly blistery. My husband said we should have paid an extra few bucks and gotten the large (this is after he finished his half and ate a significant portion of mine, lol). Pitchers of beer were $18-$20 depending on the brand. Staff were competent and efficient. This is not a date night destination, at least not in my opinion. It's more a casual hangout to eat fast food, drink beer (although they also have wine and hard liquor), chat, and watch sports with friends. Or in our case, look at old yearbook pictures and laugh and try to figure out who is who, haha.

I used to frequent this restaurant very often in my younger days. Finally decided to place a delivery order and try it again. So I ordered a submarine with sausage, tomatoes, cole slaw and onions, and it was just amazing. Same delicious flavors as in the past, true consistency. The home made hot sauce ( which comes in a small plastic container) adds more savory uniqueness to the already unique sub. A small side of fires with some gravy completed the meal. My wife ordered an all dressed pizza. It's just the right size for one person, and tue Italian style thickness. It's good to see these type of restaurants are still there and continue to be run with the same original values.

Best poutine in NDG and speedy takeout service! I ordered a small poutine and 7" sausage sub for pickup about 10 minutes in advance (saying I would get there soon). By the time I got there, my order had already been packed! The gentleman behind the counter also reminded me to hold the package upright so the poutine wouldn't spill. By the time I got home about 20-30 minutes later, the poutine was still hot, and the curds had melted (just how I like it). The fries were brown and not too soggy and the poutine ingredients well-balanced. Overall, it was the best poutine I've had in NDG. The sub's bread was a little hard, but that could be due to not eating it right away. I also found the sausage not seasoned enough, though the coleslaw and chili oil were divine and added flavor to it. In the future, I plan on trying the sausage sub and poutine with friends when Momesso is again open for sitting down.

This place is a 5 minute walk from Station Vendome, close to the Lachine Canal. We ordered the supreme 7", steak 14", and large onion rings to share. Total came out to be around $32, which is pretty good considering the 14" portion is big enough to be shared between two. The supreme sub came with sausages, steak, peppers, tomato, lettuce, onions, mushrooms, cheese and spicy sauce. Their spicy sauce is soooo good, it really ups the flavour meter. Everything was super flavourful and it all blended well together. The onion rings didn't taste homemade but it was still good. The large one can be shared between 2, maybe even 3. Service was also very friendly, including the cook who took our order behind the kitchen. All in all it was a very filling meal for a very reasonable price.

My favorite sub place in Montreal. Outside decor aside, once you walk in you're greeted with a friend face. Service is quick and efficient. Subs are what this place is all about. Fries are good but the onion rings are THE WAY THE NEED TO BE MADE. Price is just right. You can even watch the game if you're there at night.

The spiecy sausage sub (italian style) and the tomato pizza with spiecy sausage are very original and exellent

Loved the place. Excellent subs, clean place, quick and friendly service, reasonable prices... What more can you ask for? Try it!

I live in the area and wanted to try this place for ever. I love Montreal's old school diners, and this one had that feel. But nice and friendly inside too. Ordered 7" sub, onion rings, and a beer, and loved it. Server was super friendly. Filling portions for reasonable prices. Full bar. Cool place. I'll definitely return.

Good Sub in the Deege or Opening a Can of Worms Having recently moved to St. Henri, Momesso's is now on my way home from Honey's so I have been frequenting the place, of late. Actually I am eating the leftovers for breakfast as we speak. Now, when the question of 'the best sub in Montreal' comes up, there is no doubt that someone in the room will mention Momesso's and rightfully so but personally, I am still a Manzo's man. Although, I would put that 'hot sauce' on my cornflakes so I will give them that. I also have a special place for their sausage burgers, smothered in slaw...aside from my colon.

It's a great place, definitely one of Montreal's great institution. But the food... It's good, but not THAT good. I was expecting the subs (sausages) to be one of a kind, exceptional. They are not. Just normal (and somehow original) subs. Onion rings are great. Beer choice is bad.

Simply the best subs in Montreal...this place has been open for over 30 years and named after the former hockey player. Theres is a couple of tvs and the style is cafeteria. But you dont come here for the decor. The sausage sub is simply amazing and you can add their special spicy sauce. The pizza with sausage, the hamburgers and the onion rings are the best.. A must try for sub lovers.

Restaurant Momesso has great food. They are Italian and serve delicious 7 inch and 14 inch hot subs, which I would strongly recommend. I personally love the steak sandwich served spicy. The pizza is a little different than usual pizzas. Its a softer pizza, its definitely an acquired taste. Nonetheless, I think they have some delicious food, the fries are good, the subs are good and the overall price is pretty cheap. The atmosphere is also amazing. They have multipule TVs and will play all the Montreal Canadiens games. They will also play Italian soccer games and the crowd can be pretty crazy for either of these events. The staff is extremely friendly. Overall, it is a great casual restaurant, good for sports events and late night snacks. Great subs. Great food. Nice atmosphere. Nice people. Beer deals.

The first time I ever ate at Momesso's, the food was orgasmic. I ate there twice in a week just last week and neither time was very good. I tried to go in the summer but there was a sign in the window saying they were closed for renos. I guess the anticipation and memories of past visits got my hopes up! Even the two visits last week were not consistent. What hasn't changed, however, was the grease--MMMmmmm! I always get the sausage and steak or just the steak sub, usually the full 14" (~$14) just because I'm greedy like that. Sometimes I get my sub with onion rings, sometimes fries (they offer small which is a good size for ~$3 and large). Both are full-on greasy goodness and always cooked just right, served in the cafeteria-style no-nonsense plastic bowls. The onion rings are crispy with some light grease, and the fries are a little greasier with little oil blisters on them. I'm seeing a lot of these fried onions / green peppers / mushrooms being tossed into steak subs these days and I can't say I'm loving it. I find each of those items when fried have their own flavor and it doesn't really add to the beefy flavour of the beef, if anything, I find it robs one of enjoying the good, beefy taste of the meat. On one occasion, there was no trace of cheese in my sub, and too little sub sauce (actually it's Italian dressing) on another. The sauce I could get over, but not the cheese. The other thing is that the fillings for the subs are getting noticeably smaller. What's up with that? I was quite disappointed these past two times I ate at Momesso. The service was the only thing I couldn't complain about. That and their hot sauce. But why don't they sell the little jars of the stuff anymore??

Owned by ex-Montreal Canadien Sergio Momesso and his family. This place rocks! Awesome Italian Sausage Subs here (Which is what they're really known for), always ask for it "spicy". I also enjoy a spicy cheeseburger here too. Very affordable with sports on the TV screens. Good spot on Saturday afternoons. *Closed on Sundays!*

Amazing food love there subs (ask for extra spicy) has been a great place to eat at for many many years!

Two words: sausage sub and sausage pizza. Okay, that was five words, but who's really counting? I've been coming to this place since I was a kid and it never disappoints. Make sure to ask them to make it spicy!

Literally the best steak subs I've ever had ! The service is always great and fast ! I always go and don't plan on stopping anytime soon .

Best burgers in Montreal. End of story. Pizza, subs, great espresso, everything a fast food joint should be. Noisy, and very busy at lunch, especially Thursdays. The staff has been there since forever, and it is always a treat to say 'hi'.

I grew up in the neighborhood and went to what used to be the elementary school around the corner on Old Orchard (I believe it's some business school or something now) and I can tell you that this place not only has a rich history with the neighborhood, but it has some of the best greasy food in the city. If you feel like throwing calorie caution to the wind, then CHECK THIS PLACE OUT! Not only is it a part of Montreal history, but hockey history as well, being owned by the family of hockey player Sergio Momesso. Great burgers, great subs, great fries, great everything! The prices are great and the staff is super friendly. A definite go to for anyone living or visiting the NDG area!

I had the chicken sub. Marinated chicken, topped with mayo, sautéed onions, sliced tomatoes, fresh homemade coleslaw, drizzled with their own special hot sauce. These recipes have probably never been changed, and the sheer idea of modification will disrupt the gastronomic harmony between all players. These subs don't come with substitutions or a choice of gourmet breads or calorie conscious alternatives. White bun, lightly toasted, plain and simple, that's what you're having, cos that's all they have.

Quiznos, subway, eat your hearts out. No contest. The best steak and pepperoni sub I've ever had. I've heard much about their Italian sausage sub, but steak and pepperoni has always been very dear to my heart so my first experience was S&P. I was trying to have a light lunch so I ordered the 7" sub. Next time 14" for sure. It was over much too quickly. Maybe I'll have a 7" of S&P and one sausage. I know I'm rambling but this was an amazing sub. If in the area around meal time, this is where I'm eating. GREAT STUFF.

Best Italian sandwich. I stop here every trip to Montreal. I absolutely love this sandwich. Fresh baked bread, homemade Italian sausage, homemade slaw and hot sauce.

This place is an NDG institution. Great Italian sausage subs, friendly environment.

The best sausage sub west of Café Milano in St. Leo. Always great. The bread is to die for. My advice? Get spicy, if you can handle spice. It adds just the right amount of kick. I can't comment on any other menu items because I always get the sausage sub. It's awesome.

The spicey sausage sub is out of this world...legendary restaurant in Montreal. Everything is home made proprietary ingredients which make this place one of a kind...named after a hockey legend Sergio Momesso. I'm straight up addicted !!

Went again last Friday and as usual it was great. The two of us have been frequenting this place for lunch for over 20 years. It is unpretentious where construction workers sit next to business people and everyone enjoys themselves. Our favorite is the pizza with sausage, spicy and onions optional. We love their Italian sausage which is cockoed to have a nice bit of crunchy crust. We also love their spicy pepper sauce, sometimes adding a few little cups of it to the pizza.

Yeah, yeah, everyone talks about the subs. It's their pizzas I love! Huge pieces of Italian sausage, tons of ingredients, their special spicy sauce which I have bought a bottle of in the past.

Momesso's.. Momesso's... What can I say about Momesso's.. The front of the store is not an incredibly inviting, but the friendly waitresses and fabulous space inside make up for that. Beers on tap (including the rare but my favorite, Creemore Springs), some of the most amazing subs ever, and seriously underrated poutine and hamburgers. Chicken sub is my favorite, 2nd is pepperoni. Pizza is awesome with a generous amount of cheese and the house made hot sauce (I think it's a giardiniere) is one of the best, and you can even but it by the jar to use it at home. A neighborhood staple who's traditions haven't changed, and who sticks to what it knows, and what it knows is Italian subs and quebec comfort food. A great place to watch the game and devour a glorious poutine.

Very good sausage sandwiches and the place looks great good money for your bucks nice job and excellent service

The sub here are quite delicious. Okay they put hot sauce on most of them but if your not a spice fan like i am you can always ask for without it. the first time i went i had their chicken sub 14 inch and that was great.The hot sauce, mayo,chicken and jardinière combination may seem strange but trust me you will like it your willing to try it. I have been 3 or 4 more times and it tasted just as good as the last time. I recommend the Spencer Sub, Steak & Pepperoni and the Chicken Sub. All my personal favourites. The staff is quite friendly and the atmosphere is casual. Keep in mind though they only take cash or debit but its well worth the price. If your a big eater i go with the 14 inch sub if you normally bite off more than you can chew then stick with the 7 inch. You can't go wrong with any of the 3 subs i suggested. Yes it may be a little greasy but thats what gives it the flavour. A warning to all though they are closed on Sunday so do not go that day. The price for a sub is quite fair 7 once is about 6.99$ I believe and a 14 inch is about 9.99$ i think. Their so kind at Momesso's their even willing to let you take home what you don't finish and give you helpful tips on how to reheat it.
