Poutine Burgers Sandwiches Comfort Food

Review Summary

Ashton is a new addition drawing mixed reactions across reviews. Some diners praise items like the roast beef sandwich and burgers, noting fresh fries and flavorful cheese and gravy, while others slam the poutine for being under sauced, lukewarm or cold, with portions that disappoint and a taste that falls short compared with expectations or other local spots. Service is described as variable, with some reports of slow, long waits at the newer Mirabel location or during busy times, and other visits highlighting fast, friendly service and clear menu explanations; at times staff are described as still finding their rhythm. Price is a recurring point, with several reviewers calling values high for the quality, while a few appreciate the local, fresh approach and the choice to order a la carte rather than bundles. Milkshakes and other items receive praise from some, and there is a sense that Ashton brings welcome variety and a refreshing vibe to the area, with many indicating they would return to try different dishes, even as others say the current execution keeps them from returning.View restaurant profile

Review Summary

Le Rodman presents a fun ambiance and attentive service, with inventive cocktails and a music-driven vibe that keeps the night lively and the kitchen open late, earning praise as a go to spot in Montreal. Reviewers highlight the friendly staff, the appealing drinks, and the overall atmosphere that suits birthdays and celebrations, with many calling it a standout new venue in the Mile End and a place for good vibes and shared plates. However, several guests were disappointed by the food, finding the fritay not authentically Haitian despite the name, and noting that the marinade and accras did not taste like what they expect.

On the positive side, several dishes and cocktails are regarded as delicious, the menu is small but tasty for sharing, and the vibe and energy are repeatedly praised.
