Reviews of Casse-croute Chez Archie are overwhelmingly positive, highlighting the poutine as the star with generous portions, rich cheese, and house-made fries that taste like real potatoes, along with distinctive sauces such as pepper and brown that earn praise. The meals are described as fresh, well prepared, and reasonably priced, with portions often described as huge or overflowing. Service is repeatedly praised for being friendly, attentive, and welcoming, though a few comments point to occasional kitchen delays that result in longer waits. Many diners claim this is among the best poutine in Mauricie and say a visit is worth the detour, while others note the quality of the fries and the robust, flavorful sauce separately. There are isolated comments about a dish not being as expected due to delivery issues with cheese, and one mention of a snack that may have been reheated, but these criticisms are not representative of the overall experience.View restaurant profile
