Cinquante Cinq

Bécancour

Review Summary

Cinquante Cinq is described as a casual spot where the food is solid, especially the poutine and pizza, though some dishes miss the mark such as a BLT served cold and a club sandwich with bones in the chicken. The menu offers a wide variety and service is praised for being efficient and friendly, while at other times it can be a bit slow and coffee is left waiting. The atmosphere can be noisy, but it feels right when accompanied. Cleanliness is a concern in some reviews, including a bathroom that was reported dirty and not cleaned promptly, suggesting more frequent cleaning would help. Breakfasts are said to be good, though the breakfast pizza can take a long time and one plate was kept on the warmer while another was ready. Overall there are many positive notes about taste and service, but experiences vary and hygiene and timing issues linger in some visits.View restaurant profile

Burgers Comfort Food Poutine

Review Summary

Notre-Boeuf-de-Grâce is widely praised for tasty burgers, juicy patties and a delicious fry selection, set in a vibrant, artful space with both indoor and outdoor seating that many say elevates the meal. Several reviews call it an underrated gem with more than burgers and friendly, attentive service that makes the dining experience enjoyable when the staff is on top of things. However, experiences are mixed: some diners report slow service, long waits, tepid dishes or over oily burgers, and others note cleanliness inconsistencies or miscommunications about gluten free options.

The ambiance, decor, and occasional standout service contribute to positive impressions, while price and inconsistency temper some expectations. In sum, the burgers and vibe draw many to Notre-Boeuf-de-Grâce, but visitors should anticipate variability in service speed and dish consistency.View restaurant profile
