I stopped at Drogheria Fine during a Mile End food tour I was on. I actually noticed this spot…read moreduring my first visit to Montreal last year - it's close to several foodie hot spots, however I didn't get to try it until now. That being said, I was excited to check this spot off my list. Drogheria Fine does one thing - gnocchi. They serve it in Chinese takeout containers and you can get them topped with either cheese, red pepper flakes, or both. There is no sit down option, simply a walk-up window where you order. There are, however, some benches where you can sit - but the containers are designed to move so you could easy eat while on the go. I got the...gnocchi, and decided to full monty and add grated parm and red pepper flakes. The gnocchi were smaller than standard and almost round in nature. Also since they were smaller, they weren't as heavy which was welcome. The sauce had a somewhat unique flavor - there was some depth to it, and the parm and pepper flakes were a good complement. Overall, I'm glad I had the opportunity to stop at Drogheria Fine. I'm not sold on it being a "must do" in Montreal, but their gnocchi were good and the sauce was unique. If you're in the area I would say it's worth a stop.

Not too sweet and the gnocchi was just cooked right. I think I could do without the extra cheese but still worth it. I stumbled into this place and now I know what the hype is about. The quantity is generous and the taste really stands out, and their spice actually matches my Indian tastebuds. This is a very peaceful spot and the service is really quick. There's no seating space inside but there are benches right in the front, so you can hang out. Also they don't accept credit cards so be prepared!! Overall I loved the experience and as a tourist I really felt welcomed at this place!!

I guess thought it was going to be better, and I did have somewhat higher expectations ---…read moreregarding their pizzas that is. I'm not really reviewing the market's concept with looks pretty cool. Fresh pastas by weight and a fairly large selection of Italian specialties, perhaps I may have a better taste in my mouth after trying those items. In a crusty shell, I got their vegetarian pizza to go (personal size - which is actually a fair size and comes with a decent price tag $8 or 9 +T). Apart from having to wait a bit longer than you would expect for a fresh pizza it came out hot and looked pretty good. Even the first couple of bites seemed to be alright and even somewhat tasty, but then bite after bite it got worse and worse. There was an odd something going on with their dough and/or sauce and/or cheese and/or vegetable situation/combination, that made me feel a little yucky after eating it. I'm not a big fan of that happening and who would be. You should never feel yucky after eating a pizza. Even after eating a whole small. You may feel stuffed, but be happily full; satisfied and even proud you ate it all up. So, when I saw the high star rating I was a bit surprised, and by chance I saw another 1* review that concurred with my experience, so I don't feel like I'm the only one who had this feeling and experience. Note: Their system for where to go, stand and order where not very clear, so that could also use some work. The shop has a bit of a complicated layout which doesn't help matters. Maybe they've worked on that over the last several weeks/months, and if not they probably should to make it as safe and efficient as possible. I think that's fair to hope for...

I asked to be seated outside and was shown to my table in less than 7 minutes. I ordered the Parma in Bianco. It tasted fresh and was very enjoyable. There was a ton of Arugula on it, but... I survived. There was also a lot of prosciutto too. It was a really tasty. The ambiance was nice. Even though there were people bustling about outside of the restaurant boundaries, I felt like the vibe was really relaxed and calm. The location is great - especially if you're a tourist. The prices are reasonable. Service was good. No complaints.

They have a daily pasta meal and focaccia. Their menu is written on the mirror. I've never had a focaccia so I really wanted to try that first but my top would be to try their meat sauce. It looks so good. This place is mainly for takeout. But if you eat in they will prepare your tray and bring it to you but they don't have plates yet. They do have utensils and water though. Seating it tight but every time I pass by people get to go so you shouldn't have a problem sitting down. Especially now that it's winter. A foccacia is like a reverse pizza/calzone type of thing. It's an Italian dish and it's the pizza dough that covers all the ingredients. Mine was tehina, red cabbage, eggplant, and Guanciale (Italian cured meat from pork jowl/cheek). The flavours were good. I just thought it maybe missed something to give it a kick. I'm giving it a four because I haven't tried everything so I don't think it overall deserves a 3 even though the focaccia was a 3 to me. Prices are also decent. Around $13-15 for a pasta plate. And the focaccia was $4.60 with tax.

We got big green grapes that were quite pricey, nearly $20 USD but they were just grapes, they were more juicy though. There are also a few places to eat, we ended up at a bakery cafe at the end upstairs. They had different sandwiches and focaccia similar to a pizza type. They heat these up so it was perfect to eat right away. *Warning* There was a an issue of not being labeled nut and asking the worker if there was any and they said no but after confirming with the cook there was walnut in the bread. So I would be extra careful about that. Other than that they had foie gras for sale as well as many other places that had it as well. There were a few grocery stores and butcher shops so there is a lot to choose from if you are looking for different types. There were a few dessert places but the place isn't too big with more variety for grocery food items.

They took me INSIDE. Through the restaurant. And out the other side into this absolutely fantastic hidden courtyard. Excuse me?? Why did nobody tell me we had upgraded accommodations? The back patio is one of those spaces you'd never know existed from the street. There are stone walls, greenery climbing everywhere, strings of lights overhead and some seriously cool artwork and murals. It feels tucked away from the bustle of Old Montreal and, once the lights came on, had a really warm, relaxed atmosphere. Most importantly, nobody seemed remotely concerned that a tiny Italian Greyhound had joined the dinner party. I was welcomed right in. Mum ordered the trout over couscous, which looked extremely impressive. She did give me some of the trout. Dad ordered the steak frites. I repeat: Dad ordered steak. At a dog-friendly restaurant. While sitting next to a dog. He did not share. I feel like we've covered this issue before. Dad had wine, Mum had a Diet Coke, and I spent much of dinner curled up comfortably with Mum while monitoring the steak situation. There were developments. None favorable to me. But Wolf & Workman is exactly the kind of place we're always hoping to find when traveling: somewhere the humans don't have to compromise on having a genuinely great dinner just because I'm with them. This wasn't simply "there are a couple of tables outside where you can put the dog." I got the good patio. Dogba's verdict: 5 paws out of 5. Dog welcome: enthusiastic Surprise hidden courtyard: exceptional Murals: excellent photo opportunities Evening atmosphere: Mum approved Mum's trout: apparently delicious Dad ordering steak in my presence: provocative Wine for Dad: yes Steak for Dogba: I'd prefer not to discuss it Would absolutely return. Although next time, when someone says Wolf & Workman, I expect considerably more attention to the wolf portion of the clientele.
