This place is cheap, tasty and cool! I highly recommend the Minestrone soup, it's the best I've ever had. Additionally, their canolis and coffee is fantastic, it's Lav-azza.
Also, take a look at their actual menus on the counter, in there you'll find some cheap table d'hotes that you otherwise wouldn't see.
ps- a friend of mine from NYC claims this is the only "real" new york pizza is mtl...I'm not sure if this is true, but it's damn good!
