Review Summary

La Banquise is a legendary Montreal poutine spot known for enormous bowls piled high with crispy fries, squeaky cheese curds, and rich gravy, with a wide variety of toppings from classic to bold. The atmosphere is lively and friendly, service is fast, and staff work hard to accommodate guests even when the place is busy, with vegetarian, vegan, and meat options widely praised. Although crowds and noise are common and the space can feel tight, the generous portions and flavorful poutines make the wait worthwhile, and takeout or enjoying a meal in the park add to the appeal, solidifying La Banquise as a go to for poutine lovers.View restaurant profile

Review Summary

Fairmount Bagel Bakery is described as an iconic Montreal staple, with wood fired ovens delivering warm, chewy bagels that are best enjoyed fresh and often taken to go. Reviews celebrate a broad lineup of flavors from sesame and everything to blueberry and sun dried tomato, with many calling the sesame bagel the standout and consistently excellent. Readers note the aroma and the hands on experience of watching dough being shaped and boiled in honey water before baking, which adds to the charm. The atmosphere varies in tone from warmly praised staff to occasional comments about slow or uneven service, and some notes about unfriendly moments. A common caveat is that the shop is cash or Canadian debit card only, with some posts noting no seating and lines that move slowly at peak times, but many still say the wait is worth it for the quality. Several reviewers declare it among the best bagels in Montreal if not the world, often preferring it to competitors and NYC comparisons, while a few say the quality can vary and freshness fades later in the day. Overall, the reviews paint a picture of a beloved institution where fresh, warm bagels, classic toppings, and a straightforward takeout experience define the visit, and where the ritual and taste keep locals and visitors returning.View restaurant profile

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
