Absolutely stellar sandwiches (highly recommend the hero), crispy, perfect fries, and the truffle mayo is out of this world. Beyond that, the atmosphere is unique and welcoming, the staff helpful and warm. In Montreal for a few days and visiting here was a huge highlight.

Got the godfather hero the other day, and I was only able to eat half because it eas really big. The size is good for the pricing and the flavour is delicious. Unfortunately I was eating the other hàf of my sandwich today and I bit into a piece of hard plastic that was quite sharp. This couldve injured my gums or my throat had I not bitten into at the angle I had, or had I swallowed it. Despite the food being good, I would not return here nor would I recommend this place as I found hard, sharp plastic in my food.

A good place to grab sandwiches, I had the paparazzi and it was very tasty and fulfilling. I would like to see salads available on the menu

They don’t have gluten free options. They bill 2.50$ per lettuce which is their option for GF and I don’t think it’s worth it. I ordered chicken breast sandwich with Mozarella bread less and this is how it looked. The cashier is nice on the flip side but if you’re celiac NOT worth your time.

Great sandwiches (I had the Vegan Go! Habs Go! and my spouse made his own) BUT it is a little difficult to find as they have rebranded? The sign says ILA, but menu and decor are the same as older photos…

The sandwiches are super flavorful and filling. 1 order should be enough for 2 person. But dont settle for jsut 1 flavor, order different ones so you can try more!!

I ordered the DNA sandwich and found it really good! As for the size, with the pictures I had seen I thought it would be small but it’s really big and satisfies easily.

Really surprised to see the hyped reviews. I was really excited to try this place out. The Philly steak sandwich was very basic.

Ordered the DNA and Godfather, both were very good but…..the Godfather was not served as described, it was missing the traditional cappicolo. The bread and ingredients were very good and experience was great! Friendly staff and cool place to eat a sandwich downtown. I would go back!

My sister and I shared one hot hungry man and one cold godfather sandwiches and they were both delicious and packed! Fries were crispy. Cute decor. Will return.
