Mentioned in: 18 Delis and Diners in Montréal Serving the City's Timeless Classics Late-Night Dining in Montreal: Essential Stops for After-Dark Gourmets View More

Review Summary

Miami Deli is described across reviews as a bold, nostalgic diner with a behemoth menu, big portions, and affordable prices that make it a reliable go-to for breakfast and brunch, and its kitschy, Florida themed decor is repeatedly highlighted as part of the charm. Many diners praise fast, friendly service and a welcoming, family-friendly vibe, but reports vary with some noting slow or uneven service and changes in staff since changing ownership. The food gets mixed marks: some dishes are praised for being hearty and tasty and the smoked meat and poutines are favorites, while others critique fries that have changed texture, pizzas that are less robust than before, or poutine sauces that lack the same richness. Some customers mention long weekend crowds and the place feeling like an institution that is worth a detour for the experience, while others feel the quality does not always justify rising prices. Overall, the reviews present a picture of a distinctive, value-oriented spot that can deliver comforting, generous meals and memorable ambiance but also faces inconsistency in both menu items and service.View restaurant profile
